	Archipelago and fjords along the east coast of Greenland near the town of Tasiilaq which is located on the island of Ammassalik in East Greenland.
	Snow fields on land and icebergs at sea characterize the Greenland's rugged east coast. This island is located near the village of Isortoq.
	Terminal moraine at the east coast of Greenland. Our flight took us just south of the actic circle.
	Glacial lake to lower left. Fjord on upper right. Snow marks linear structures in the bedrock of Greenland.
	Icebergs, calved from the edge of the Greenlandic ice sheet, fill a fjord in East Greenland.
	The eastern edge of the Greenland ice sheet.
	Greenland's west coast is characterized by low rolling topography and small lakes with little snow and ice. Exposed bedrock reveals ancient Precambrian formations. Rock structure is clearly visible even from 35,000 feet.
	The fjords of the Davis strait are relatively free of ice on the west coast of Greenland.
	Across the Davis Strait, the striking cliffs of Baffin Island near the settlement of Pangnirtung contrasts sharply with Greenland on the opposite side of the Davis Strait.
	Long thin lines of snow highlight lineations in the bedrock on the southern part of Baffin Island near Iqaluit, the provincial capital of the new Canadian province of Nunavut.
	The Canadian Shield in Quebec was scraped by glaciers in the last age. Topography is subdued. Glacial lakes dot the landscape. Soil is thin or absent. Bedrock structures are clearly revealed from the air.
