existence, and I found the traps 165 and 166 by following it, just 

 as Johansen found the traps 167 and 168 by the same method. 

 There can scarcely be any doubt, that the Eskimos, in placing their 

 traps, have also had this mark in mind. 



The traps were measured by Mylius-Erichsen.

South of these four traps we found a fifth (169; fig. 30) at no 

 great distance from the pass. It was unusually well-preserved, con- 

 structed of large and medium-large stones, 087 M. long, 17 M. 

 broad and 019 M. high. The opening looked towards the east and 

 the falling door had been moved to the side. This trap did not lie in 

 Une with the four above-mentioned, but it was easily seen, as the 

 front covering stone was remarkable for its size and regular form 

 and has certainly served as recognizable mark. 



A couple of small cairns (170), each consisting of 5 to 6 stones.
