Devil's Thumb, Mountain summit in Avannaata, Greenland.
Devil's Thumb rises 546 meters above Kullorsuaq Island in the Upernavik Archipelago, marked by its distinct finger-like formation against the Arctic landscape.
The mountain has guided Arctic seafarers through Melville Bay for generations, serving as a critical navigational reference point in northern Greenland waters.
Known as Kullorsuaq in Greenlandic and Djævelens Tommelfinger in Danish, this peak represents the geographical identity of local communities in northwest Greenland.
Located 3 kilometers north of Kullorsuaq settlement, the mountain requires careful planning and appropriate equipment for any climbing expedition in Arctic conditions.
The summit stands as the central geographical feature of Kullorsuaq Island, visible from multiple vantage points across the northern Upernavik Archipelago.
