| Above is a good example of the multiyear ice that sits frozen jutting out of the relatively smooth sea ice. Multiyear ice is just what it says: ice that has not melted along with the rest of the ice in the summer months, so when winter comes, these enormous blocks get pushed up above the regular sea ice that freezes evenly. |
|
| This particular mass was about 9 feet tall at its highest point. |

| When riding through the multiyear ice I felt as though the waves had been frozen solid around me. And I didn't really capture it here, but the shades of blue that you saw in those frozen blocks were spectacular. |
