This little guy was our guide from DYE 4 to the native
village at Kap Dan. I was joined on this June 1977 hike by six
U.S. Air Force technicians who were installing gear at the station.
We used the main access road for several miles, then left that
graded comfort for a more interesting trek on a well-worn native
trail. |
 |
We also used this service road. |

Lush plant life! |

A field of lichen. |

Fording an icy stream. |
 |
Another type of lichen. Beautiful! |
 |
How about this moss? |

Long time Danish worker & good guy Torbin Dahl
lived here, near the native village, on a site that ensured peace
and quiet. |
