Photo of the Week: Skiing in June – Take 2

Here’s another example of what some of us northeastern skiers are known to do in June – when the snow is gone, but our skiing stoke is not. This is another image from East Greenland’s Schweizerland Alps, captured on a remote island that is part of an Arctic archipelago anchoring the southern end of these spectacular mountains. The glacial icebergs on the water far below would often break apart or bump into each other, releasing rumbles of “northern thunder” that could be heard for miles across the water, twenty four hours a day.
