Looks wonderful. Ascents of 1400m a day? Respect!

OMG that looks amazing!
What a superb trip esp with the 4 day extension. Just saved that page as a favourite. There are so many amazing looking touring trips to interesting parts of the world.
However "Ascents/descents there average around 800m of vertical and we’ll aim to make several a day". Yikes. 1000m vertical really did me in last year in Argentiere. Although maybe it would be easier going from 0 to 800m a few times than from 2500 to 3500 given the altitude? Or is that just wishful thinking?

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

The altitude makes a huge difference
My wife and I did the summit to sea trip last season with these guys www.lyngenlodge.com starting climbing at sea level and topping out at 1200m is massively less tiring than the same amount of vertical starting at 2000m
BTW check out the Lyngen lodge experience -I would recommend it to anyone -best single week I've had skiing in 35 years ( and I ski 8 weeks a season!!)

Heard great reports of Lyngen Lodge - but do think the price is at the rather expensive (if not exorbitant) end of things.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Greenland has always fascinated me, but always expected something like this to be in the region of £10k. Life goals!

You know it makes sense.
|
It looks awesome. But . . . if there are no lifts and no helicopters . . .
I don't think there'll be a time when the Venn diagrams of wealth and ability cross.

The flight in to Kulusuk is worth doing just for itself.
I had to fly from Rejkavik to Nuuk for work a couple of years ago with a fuel stop in Kulusuk. The approach down the fjord was just amazing. The color of the water especially around the icebergs was incredible.
For us piste bashers, there is a small skihill in Nuuk with 2 or 3 lifts next to the airport. Sadly I never had time to get up the hill. Close but no cigar again.
Looks like a great trip if I had the skills, hope you enjoy.
