Jan Mayen - Whaling

Jan Mayen has a long whaling history and the evidence was obvious. As we left the island to continue north we did have some better views of the glaciers that spill into the sea. 

Trappers hut at the back of the beach.

The front piece is a whale jaw. 

Vertebra.

More whale...

...and in haste as we had to leave - more whale ...

Leaving the island as the mist cleared(ish).


Departing views...
