SKIT: WHALER STATION WATCHMAN
by Alice B. Clagett
27 February 2023
I can imagine one lone whaler watchman wintering the long Arctic night at a whaling station up there in Greenland. The inlet is jammed with ice. There will be no help from the sea. Winds are whipping wildly about; a pilot would have to be crazy to try to land a small craft there.
