Isfjord at Sunset


Isfjord at Sunset, originally uploaded by Flotsammy.

An iceberg from this fjord is believed to have taken down the Titanic. No surprise, given the building-sized blocks of ice that are spit from this glacial gulch all day, every day. The Icefjord is a frozen UNESCO site just south of the town of Ilulissat on Greenland's west coast. A slice of Denmark in the high Arctic, there are more sled dogs in this town than people—by a long shot.
