Devil’s Castle

Welcome to Geology day – today geology was to beat biology … showing off how beautiful rocks can be.

Over night we had moved the ~140 nautical miles deep into the fjord system of East Greenland into the Kaiser Franz Joseph Fjord and around Ymer Island – when the Devil’s Castle – an isolated mountain (about 1300m high) in the fjord, that reminded its discoverers of a decaying castle – came into view just after 06:00 in the morning.

After having had breakfast going through the Hell Gate back in 2015 it felt appropriate to now have breakfast in front of the devil’s castle … 😉
