Cruising highways of sand. Hodding tells us that land excursion will be just as exciting as the coastal sailing. We'll make landfall every other day if we can. Go on hikes and meet people. Walk along eskers left from the glaciers.
Eskers are sand mounds that can be walked on for dozens and even hundreds of miles.
They're like the highways that all the animals use. It'll give us the chance to see wolves, caribou and bears. Eskers are the paths people up there use going on hunting or fishing trips, getting from one waterway to another. So we ask him about the people he expects to meet along the way. We'll obviously meet the Inuit, because they're the ones who survived the Vikings.
