Soon after we had entered Admiralty Inlet that leads to Arctic <br \/>\nBay, we were quickly surrounded by ice. We gave up and turned around, <br \/>\nbut progress was occasionally impossible and it took us several hours to <br \/>\nreach open water. The photo above should give you an idea of what we had <br \/>\nto go through. We are happy to be in this protected bay \u2026 and wait. <br \/>\nPatience is the password in these high latitudes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">\n<p>The Canadian Ice Service published on 1 August the ice forecast for the next month.
