DESCRIPTION: In the last decade\, single-dish (sub-)millimetre surveys cov
 ering 100-1000 square degrees on the sky have allowed for the harvesting o
 f 100s of strongly gravitationally lensed (magnification factors >10) high
 -z dusty starburst galaxies -- objects that due to their lensing-configura
 tion are too rare to be uncovered in significant numbers in smaller survey
 s. These objects\, owing to their brightness\, are 'easy pickings' for fol
 low-up observations with ALMA and Hubble\, and have proven to be a treasur
 e for studying the most extreme dusty starburst galaxies back to 800 milli
 on years after the Big Bang.  In this talk I will present the latest resul
 ts from the South Pole Telescope Submillimeter Galaxy Survey (SPT-SMG)\, w
 hich has produced the largest and best-studied sample of lensed starburst 
 galaxies in the young Universe. Finally\, I will talk about plans to condu
 ct large mm-surveys from the Arctic\, using the 12meter Greenland Telescop
 e\, currently located at Thule Airbase.
