N. E. 120 M. and the third wall, which was somewhat curved, 090 

 M. The opening looked towards the south and was 025 M. broad. 

 The shelter was divided into two spaces by a wall parallel W4th 

 the longest wall and 030 M. distant from this. 



An apparently old tent-ring (263) was found 5 meters S. E. of 

 the shelter. 



On a more prominent naze, south of Vesterdalen, we found a 

 trap (264) 10 meters from the outer point. It was badly built of 

 small, crumbling stones, 060 M. long, 014 M. broad and 0.16 M. 

 high; it stood on solid rock. The hindmost, covering stones had been 

 removed; the falling door, which consisted of a thin stone slab, 

 was moved to the side; the pointed stone in the back wall was 

 however in its place. 



The following, temporary meat-stores were found near the trap: 



Baadskaeret (lat. 76° 45', long. 18° 51')- Here we found 11 tent- 

 rings, 13 traps, 10 permanent and 9 temporary meat-stores, 1 fire- 

 place and 1 set of kayak rests. 



The islet lies south of the east side of Stormbugt, in continuation 

 of this and not very far from land. It is low and is really only 

 one large heap of stones with a few free patches, where smooth rock 

 or strand gravel appear. Near the western end there is an indentation 

 in the rocks, which goes across the islet in the direction N. to S. 

 This may be suitably described as a double slip, which has an 

 €ven fall towards the sea at both ends; the ground consists of fine 

 gravel and pebbles. The length of the islet from E. to W. is ca. 

 300 meters, its breadth ca. 50 meters. 



The east and south-east beaches were covered with naturally 

 heaped-up stones. Here on this very uneven ground lay 2 permanent 

 meat-depots at a distance of 15 meters from one another. They 

 were so small that they might have been taken for the work of 

 children, but on the other hand there were so many of these small,
