Seismic cruise off-Prins Karl Forland island in the archipelago of Svalbard on board of RV G.O. Sars. An exceptional experience both professionally and personally to had the chance to participate and be a member of such a cruise. It was a cloudy day and with not too much visibility, Yet, suddenly the glaciated mountains appeared from the clouds and showed their impressive facade.
