Slothy's Pal:
Eerie skies in the morning
Slothy's Pal:

Slothy's Pal:

Slothy's Pal:

Slothy's Pal:
to get to this point was easily a 5 minute process
Slothy's Pal:
we were able to get closer to the walruses as they got used to our presence
Slothy's Pal:
walruses are awesome
Slothy's Pal:
The area above the walruses was an Arctic desert - very little rainfall
Slothy's Pal:
we hiked up to this cliff
Slothy's Pal:

Slothy's Pal:
the whole fan-dam-ly
Slothy's Pal:
tough yellow flowers growing on the arctic desert
Slothy's Pal:
Brasvelbreen - a huge ice cap covered island
Slothy's Pal:
hard to tell scale but it was a towering wall of ice
Slothy's Pal:
calving!
Slothy's Pal:
the post-calving wave
Slothy's Pal:
all the ice speading out from where it fell off
Slothy's Pal:
ice as far as the eye can see
