For one whole winter we were cut off from the world and immured among the Greenlanders. I dwelt in their huts, took part in their hunting, and tried, as well as I could, to live their life and learn their language.

He led the team that made the first crossing of the Greenland interior in 1888, traversing the island on cross-country skis.
