Expedition to Greenland Photo Journal

Exploring Greenland’s Enticing Shores

WT Trip Leader Rob Noonan just returned from his inaugural Expedition to Greenland. What were Rob’s initial feelings as he set out on the adventure? “25 days of exploring, followed by 9 days guiding some fantastic folks on the frozen island…psyched.” And when he returned? “Greenland is amazing! Greenland’s people are so wonderful! I love Greenland!” In between, he encountered these stunning sights and tasted this delicious food (we understand why he was sad to leave and already looking forward to returning next year).

Iceberg formations and ice peaks float in calm, reflective water under a cloudy sky with soft light.
