Upernavik lies on a small island at 72° 47′ 2″ N (Nordkapp at "only" 71° 10′ 21!).
It boasts of an airport on top of the hill behind town which is just about suitable for Air Greenland's Dash 8. Upernavik has permafrost that thaws superficially in summer, making everyting muddy. 2023 was even muddier than usual because Greenland had an extremely wet/rainy summer.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenland_Dog
Grönländische Schlittenhunde sind genetisch mit dem ausgestorbenem Tamyr-Wolf verwandt. Um die Reinheit der Rasse zu schützen, dürfen nördlich des Polarkreises und in ganz Ostgrönland keine anderen Hunde eingeführt werden. Schlittenhunde gehorchen nur ihrem Besitzer und sind ab dem Alter von 6 Monaten angekettet. In Upernavik waren sie bei den jeweiligen Häusern, in den Orten etwas weiter südlich gibt es außerhalb extra Gebiete für die Schlittenhunde.

Wooden houses go up in flames pretty fast- Upernavik fire station is actually just across the road (see map)!
The blue buildings serve as fire alarms and water stations
