Storfjord was a Norwegian hunting, meteorological and radio station ("Storfjord/LMR")[1] located in King Christian IX Land, Eastern Greenland.[2]
Administratively the area were the hut stood belongs now to the Sermersooq municipality.
The station was built on the shore of Kangerlussuaq Fjord, also known as Storfjord. The anchorage near the station was difficult owing to the deep waters of the fjord and the very strong currents.[3]
