Storstrommen (Greenland)


Storstrommen, is one of the major glaciers in northeastern Greenland.
It was named Storstrømmen because of its size by the ill-fated 1906–08 Denmark Expedition led by Ludvig Mylius-Erichsen.

Geography

The mighty Storstrommen is roughly north-south oriented and has a width of over 20 km. Queen Louise Land ' lies to the west and Daniel Bruun Land to the east.
Flowing southwards for over 125 kilometers, its front is in the Bredebrae, the confluence of two very large glaciers, the Storstrommen flowing from the north and the almost equally large L. Bistrup Brae from the south.
The Storstrommen is part of an extensive glacier system that includes as well the Kofoed-Hansen Glacier
' to the NE and the Borgjokel Glacier to the SW.
