Caroline:
GeoKatalog is pretty good on Greenland. But ...
Geodaetisk Institut is now Kort- og Matrikelstyrelsen
(http://www.kms.min.dk/) and publishes 1: 250 000 scale topo maps of
the coastal areas.
Saga Maps have turned some of these into tourist maps (Saga Maps,
Hasseltoften 9, DK-Bo(with umlaut)skop, Denmark)
A series of 1: 100 000 contoured hiking maps of high quality are
being prepared by Harvey Maps of Doune, Scotland for Greenland
Tourist (http://www.Greenland-guide.dk/) The Web site should show
what's available.
