How did leif erickson navigate?
leif erikson was a norwiegen explorer (c. 970 - c. 1020) who discovered Vinland (Modern day Greenland). Like most Vikings of his period he probably travelled by Viking longship. No idea what that one is talking about. ^^ Leifur Eríksson or Leifur the Lucky. Had a father called Eríkur the Red (Eric the Red, in full English) Who was made outlaw in Norway and moved to Iceland. In Iceland he had a son called Leifur. Eríkur was also made outlaw in Iceland, so he sailed away and Eiríkur found Greenland not Leifur. However his son Leifur sailed from Greenland to Vinland which is in Canada. Leifur was born around 980 in Iceland. The area that Leifur found is now call Newfoundland. It was around the year 1000 he found it. Give and take one year. He sailed with a ship type called "Knarr" carries 20-30 people and could carry up to 24 tons of cargo. Knarr was used to sail between Iceland, Greenland, Norway, British Isle... almost anywhere in the Atlantic Ocean. However it was mostly used as Merchant ships. Longships are made to sail in shallow waters cause they only need one meter depth of water and they could turn around without turning the boat around. Those sailed from Sweden through Russia to Istanbul.

Why is most of Greenland covered with snow throughout the year?
Greenland is not near the Equator. The warmest countries are on or near the Equator. Because of the location, Greenland is very cold up far in the North. Everything far South or North of the Equator is usually cold. Ex. Antartica. In my opinion, Greenland should be called Iceland and Iceland should be Greenland considering Iceland is warm and Greenland is cold:)
