The Russell Glacier is a magnificent glacier near Kangerlussuaq, Greenland. I'd booked an organized tour, which is the easiest way to visit the glacier. It's about an hour's drive from the airport and then another 45 minutes or so of hiking. The tour guide had brought refreshments, but I spent all my time taking photos. I wish I'd had more time to just sit down and enjoy the view and wait for some ice calvings, but I had such a great time taking photos that I completely lost track of time.

Incidentally, the area around Kangerlussuaq is what is called an arctic desert
