Picture from HiFlyer Polar Ice Expedition, first polish expedition to Gunnbjorns Fjeld, highhest peak in Greenland and arctic circle.

We had great 7 days in Greenland....nice and horrible weather, great adventure with tentns, ice and beautifull mountains.

The view from peak is amazing, like all mountains all around.

For me the best was feeling that I am out all civilization, out from mobiles, computers, cars and humans....just we and nothing aroudn.....

....we were just afraid of the polar beer, but we didn't meet any...uffff ;)))

Hi Tomek, its very nice to get to see a photograph from the polar region, and that taken just two weeks ago! Very interesting, looks dry but must have been a great experience out there. Thanks for sharing...Alex...I can see the rock layers on the right and they seem to be very horizontal in orientation, suggesting no crustal movements after their formation.

Hello Tomek, this is a good and I think very important capture of your trek to the Gunnbjorns Fjeld. This is an area I am unfamiliar with so I really do appreciate when I can see shots such as this one of yours. I like the viewpoint you have here, showing your three companions walking towards the sun and those hills. Lighting looks like it was maybe a little extreme but I think for the most part you've handled it well, The sky looks great, and the snow covered landscape shows good exposure, with great texture. Very nicely done. I had a look at your website as well. There are some great shots of your tour and of the 5 of you in there as well.

Thanks, enjoyed! John
