Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Anchored near a glacier tongue in Greenland, the crew of a sailing vessel manages a remote anchorage while navigating significant ice calving events. After losing most of their previous day's photos due to a memory card failure, the pair spends the day documenting the glacier's activity from kayaks.3:00 They anchor in 4.5 meters of water in a lagoon, deploying 30 meters of chain to secure the boat against potential ice movement.12:06 The crew collects glacial ice to melt for drinking water and ballast their kayaks, noting that carrying approximately 10 kilograms of ice in the stern improves the kayaks' ability to ride over small ice floes.15:53 They explore a nearby landmass identified as Stuart Island, observing polar fox and duck tracks on the shore.8:28 The crew reports frequent, loud calving events from the glacier, which create significant waves in the fjord.12:22 Temperatures hover around 0 degrees Celsius, requiring the use of an onboard heater during the evening.18:37
