Das sieht nach ehemals vergletschertem Kraton aus und ich bin erstmal nach Finnland. Erfolglos. Dann Kanada, auch nix. Und Sibirien? War mir zu groß. Ich hätte noch etwas genauer hinschauen und mitdenken sollen: Die Flüsse sind sehr hell, fast weiß, und fließen nach Süden, und so viele Möglichkeiten, am nördlichen Polarkreis Gletscherwasser nach Süden zu entwässern, gibt’s dann doch nicht. Das hab ich aber erst beim Spicken nach der Lösung gemerkt. :-/ Wegen dieser geologischen und geographischen, nicht ganz offensichtlichen Zusammenhänge find ich dies – auch wenn ich’s nicht geschafft habe – eines der besten („lehrreichsten“?)

I looked at Baffin, but only at the western half.

Some of it is shield, there are kimberlites and paleogene flood basalts on another part- the East, I think. There may be paleozoic mobile belts up north.

That’s all I know.

if anyone knows anything about the geology in more detail, feel free to comment about it

go ahead and post the lat/long when you feel like it…i’d imagine once the others know someone else got it, they may give up.

Now that I knoew we are on the right track, I will try again.

Ron – KOA has wireless?!?!? What kind of camping is that!
