East Greenland. Inko Bajde, leader, Franci Gselman, Ivan Šturm, Štefan Senekovic, Boro Jerebek, Adolf Lep, Zvone Koklic, Ivek Verebic, Janez Bizjak and Bojan Pajk reached Angmagssalik on July 7. They were the third Yugoslavian expedition to Greenland. After three days of bad weather, a helicopter dropped them near the junctions of the Glacier de France and the Pourquoi Pas and Midgard Glaciers, where they set up Base Camp. For the next two days they reconnoitered the neighborhood of Base Camp. On July 13 Jerebek and Koklic headed for the mountains on the northern side of the Pourquoi Pas Glacier and in ten miles came to the southwest face of a striking mountain. In two days of mixed climbing they ascended the 4000-foot-high face of this virgin peak, which they called Edvardbjerg. While others climbed more unclimbed peaks of the range, Bajde, Senekovic and Bizjak reconnoitered towards Tassilaq Fjord, where they were to be picked up by boat on August 3. They found the way very complicated and later discovered that the boat pick-up would have been questionable because of ice. By chance the helicopter visited Base Camp on July 16 and they arranged to be picked up on July 28. They had no radio. From July 11 to 29 they climbed 13 yet unclimbed peaks. After a week of extremely bad weather, the expedition was picked up on July 29.
