Sun Glacier

Sun Glacier (Danish: Sun Gletscher; old Greenlandic spelling: Iterdlagssûp Qíngua), is a glacier in northwestern Greenland.

[3] It was the subject of paintings by Frank Wilbert Stokes at the end of the 19th century.

Looking down into them through the transparent waters one sees fairy-like grottos of beautiful and fantastic shapes.

The waters of the bay are dark green, while the cliffs, ice- covered, are in deep plum color.

[5]The Sun Glacier discharges from the Greenland Ice Sheet at the head of the MacCormick Fjord.
