Palasip Qaqqaa ((デンマーク語:Præstefjeldet)) is a high〔 mountain in the Qeqqata municipality in western Greenland. It is located on the mainland of Greenland on the coast of Davis Strait, immediately to the north of Sisimiut Airport. The mountain massif is spread out over in the west-east direction, constituting the terminal point of a long mountain range extending from the Pingu mountain group halfway between Davis Strait and the Greenland ice sheet ((グリーンランド語:Sermersuaq)). The range flattens considerably towards the east in the area of Kangaamiut dike swarm north of Kangerlussuaq, due to pressure exerted by the icesheet for long periods in the past. == Topography == Palasip Qaqqaa has two distinct summits: the western () and the main, eastern summit, culminating in two peaks at . The summits are separated by a depression of a very wide saddle. The massif is separated from the remainder of the ridge via several indistinctive saddles in the east.〔 The southern wall of Palasip Qaqqaa − the only wall of alpine character in the massif − is bissected by a chimney between the main summit and the slightly lower trabant to the west. It is the only part of the massif of interest to mountaineers. Past the southern pillar falling directly from the summit, the wall gradually peters out into a progressively less steep rocky and grassy slope. The northern slope is not steep and is accessible via a range of routes.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Palasip Qaqqaa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
