Gateau Point, Segelsällskapets Fjord, Greenland. Day 45. 12th August 2013.
From Alpefjord in the morning, we sailed to nearby Gateau Point for the afternoon. If I correctly identify where this is, I think it’s near the mouth of Segelsällskapets Fjord, not far from Karlene Island.
.
What makes this location special is the incredible layered rock formations..
.
This is an ancient Inuit trap, for a fox or a hare.

Anthropomorphic, it seems to me but just a natural rock assemblage.
.
You can also clearly see the layers in the strata of the surrounding cliffs.
