Melting spring sea ice gives
some pretty unpleasant travelling conditions.
The ice is still very thick
and safe, but warmer days cause the snow and ice on the surface to
start melting giving large melt pools. The
good news is that the ice surface beneath the shallow water
is usually very smooth, the bad news is that the water is
icy cold and splashes up as you travel through it.
