[00:02.48] September 24, we turned out early and set off with the determination to reach land that day.
[00:08.57] This time, too, we were not disappointed.
[00:10.55] We pushed on fast, as the gradient was often tolerably steep and gave us much help.
[00:15.81] The wind was fair, too, the ice easy, and everything promising.
[00:19.19] Some way down a reconnaissance proved necessary, as the ice here got rather rougher.
[00:24.28] I went on in front and soon found myself upon the brow of an ice-slope which overlooked a beautiful mountain tarn,
[00:30.54] the surface of which was covered with a sheet of ice.
[00:33.88] Beyond was a gorge through which a river from the tam ran downwards ,
[00:37.44] while to the right the great glacier sloped evenly down to its end moraine,
[00:41.53] and would have formed the most magnificent coasting-hill imaginable,
[00:44.41] but for the stones that lay scattered over its surface.
[00:47.92] Here was an easy descent for us, and no obstacles to separate us from our goal.
[00:53.17] I soon had the whole party by me , and we stood enjoying the sight of, the land below.
[00:57.62] After I had taken a couple of photographs, we set Off down the last ice-slope.
[01:01.65] It was steep it was steeper perhaps than any we had run down before，
[01:05.66] and we had to use our brakes ;
[01:07.76] but the sledges went gaily , and soon we were safe and well upon the frozen tarn below the glacier ,
[01:12.51] with the “ Inland ice ” for ever left behind.
[01:16.40] We now pushed across the tarn towards the river on the Other side.
[01:19.90] The ice was not everywhere quite safe ,but by moving carefully we reached the rocks beyond without mishap,
[01:24.99] took of the “ crampons ” which we had been using the last few days,
[01:28.06] and like schoolboys released, ran wildly about the shore.
[01:31.26] Words cannot describe what it was for us only to have the earth and stones again beneath our feet,
[01:36.16] or the thrill that went through us as we felt the elastic heather on which we trod,
[01:39.72] and smelt the fragrant scent Of grass and moss.
[01:43.00] Behind us lay the “ Inland ice, ” its cold , grey slope sinking slowly towards the lake ;
[01:48.28] before lay the genial land.
[01:51.26] Away down the valley we could see headland beyond headland,
[01:54.09] covering and overlapping each Other as far as the eye could reach.
[01:57.28] Here lay our course ， the way down to the fjord.
[02:00.19] I’ll return.

[00:02.48] 9月24日，我们早早起床，带着当日到达平地的决心出发了
[00:08.57] 这一次也没有让我们失望
[00:10.55] 陡峭的斜坡帮助我们加快了下降的进程
[00:15.81] 风和日丽，冰面平滑，这一切让接下来的路程充满了希望
[00:19.19] 从某方面来说，事先侦察地形还是有必要的，因为这里的冰面开始变得越来越崎岖不平
[00:24.28] 我走到前面，很快发现自己在一个冰坡的山脊处，高耸于一个美丽的山中冰斗湖之上
[00:30.54] 而湖的表面被一层冰覆盖。
[00:33.88] 远处是一条峡谷，穿过了来自冰斗湖的河流，往下延伸
[00:37.44] 在右边巨大的冰川缓缓倾斜向下直至它的底部
[00:41.53] 倘若没有散布在表面的碎石的话
[00:44.41] 它将是最为美丽壮观的冰岸山
[00:47.92] 这是一次简单的下降，在终点和我们之间没有任何障碍阻隔
[00:53.17] 很快我的小队都到齐了，大家站在这里俯瞰，享受着脚下这片美景
[00:57.62] 我拍了几张照后，动身继续最后一段冰坡下降
[01:01.65] 这段冰坡很陡，比我们之前遇到的任何一段都要陡
[01:05.66] 以至于我们要用到我们的雪橇的刹车减速
[01:07.76] 但是雪橇依旧欢快的滑行着，没多久我们就安全抵达了位于冰川下的冰斗湖上
[01:12.51] 而“格陵兰冰原”永远被留在了身后
[01:16.40] 我们继续前行，穿过了冰斗湖，走向位于另一端的河流
[01:19.90] 不是每一处冰面都很安全，但我们非常小心翼翼地移动，免遭不幸发生
[01:24.99] 拿着前几天一直在用的“冰爪”
[01:28.06] 我们像放学的孩子一样，疯狂的在海滨上奔跑
[01:31.26] 言语无法描述我们此刻的心情和这一切对我们的意义， 看起来只不过是陆地和石头再一次被我们踩在脚下
[01:36.16] 感受着脚底踩过柔韧的石南（植物）时内心泛起的兴奋涟漪
[01:39.72] 和再一次闻到草和泥沼的芳香
[01:43.00] 在我们身后，是“格陵兰冰原”，它那冷峻，灰白的斜角缓缓下沉至湖中
[01:48.28] 在触到脚下的这块宜人平原前，率先隐没消失于湖里。
[01:51.26] 沿着峡谷离开，我们可以开到远处的山外有山
[01:54.09] 它们在目所能及的地方相互覆盖，重叠
[01:57.28] 这里沉睡着一条属于我们的航线，通往峡湾
[02:00.19] 我将返回。
