02.08.2014 – We had a foretaste of being encumbered by ice a few days ago when we attempted to reach Arctic Bay, an Inuit settlement about 100 miles south of here. Soon after we had entered Admiralty Inlet that leads to Arctic Bay, we were quickly surrounded by ice. We gave up and turned around, but progress was occasionally impossible and it took us several hours to reach open water.

Update!
The @BBC says we are coming up on the first anniversary of the ice-free Arctic http://t.co/NgNgJ2kxaM pic.twitter.com/h1tyJGDqvy
