Publication Year: 1986.

Mount Atter and Other Peaks, Sukkertoppen Icecap, West Greenland. Our nine-man expedition led by Jordi Colomer arrived on July 18 at Søndre Stromfjord. The next day we flew to Sukkertoppen by helicopter. It was difficult to rent a boat to Evighedsfjord and so we rented two small boats to Kangamuit. From there, on July 20 we went with a fishing boat to Kangusiaqfjord, where we placed Base Camp. Apart from a three-day storm and some cloudy days, the weather was good. We made the following ascents: Mount Atter (2190 meters, 7185 feet), July 23 by Josep Barrachina, Alex Alom, Jaume Real, Lluis López, first ascent of east ridge and third ascent of peak; Pointe de l’Eternité (1980 meters, 6168 feet), July 23 by Jordi Colomer, Ramón Bramona, Francesc Sanahuja, Jordi Sans, Miquel Angel Martínez, via east ridge; P 1790 (5873 feet), July 24 by the previous five, via east ridge; Punta del Torrent ( 1240 meters, 4068 feet), July 24 by Colomer, Sanahuja, via south ridge; P 1780 (5840 feet), July 27 by Bramona, Sans, Martínez, via south ridge; Agssaussat (2140 meters, 6923 feet), August 5 by Real, Martínez, via south ridge; and Quingarssut (1908 meters, 6220 feet), August 6 by Sans, Alom, López, Barrachina, via northeast ridge. On August 8 a fishing boat picked us up at Base Camp.
