Abstract

The authors were in North Greenland from the end of April to the beginning of September as members ofthe British Joint Services Expedition led by Major J. D. C. Peacock R. E. M. E. During this time reconnaissance investigations were carried out in northern Peary Land in an area about 8500 km2. Travel until mid-June was by sledge on the sea-ice, thereafter by ski and on foot in the Roosevelt Fjelde. Resupply was by parachute drops made by an RAF C-130 Hercules aircraft.
