Day 24: A couple of inuits on dog sleds caught up with us this afternoon on their way to pick up some tourists in Kangerlussuaq. They came from Isortoq and told us that the British expedition that we killed time with in Tasiilaq got in trouble during the storm (a horrible piteraq, as they said) and had to be rescued. That made us realize how severe weather really was while we were sheltered by the tent. For the next 3 days or so we are headed towards a point called Dog camp and not straight towards the exit point of the glacier. This is to avoid problems with the melting water which has trapped expeditions previous years. Dist: 37.1 km Pos: N66deg45.626min W047deg19.858min Elev: 1776 m
