    Heavy sea ice appears soon after we take off from Iqaluit — Baffin Island, Canada.

    We’re heading up into the icy Arctic to explore the waters that Franklin and his men sailed … before disappearing forever, Don’t worry, we don’t plan to follow that far in their footsteps.

    Some of the sea ice below looks like 10/10th coverage … meaning no break-up. Summer must be late coming this year.

    Fingers crossed that our route has break-ups that will allow us to proceed with the itinerary “mostly” as planned.
