Ce que couvre cette vidéo
A 38-ft sailboat navigates a 30-mile passage through ice-choked waters in Greenland to reach a sheltered anchorage near a glacier.16:03 After three days of clearing ice floes from their mooring in a fjord, the crew departs at 18:00 to avoid increasing ice density.1:37 The transit requires constant maneuvering to dodge icebergs, which create complex currents and eddies that complicate steering.20:10 The crew relies on visual navigation, as local charts lack detail for the area.15:01 Temperatures hover around 0°C, and the vessel maintains a slow speed due to the density of ice and a two-knot head current.11:26 Upon arrival at 01:17, the crew anchors in 5 meters of water in a protected lagoon identified during a previous season.33:59 The lagoon is shielded from large icebergs by a land spit and surrounding high terrain.34:34 The crew confirms that the glacier remains at the coast and has not significantly retreated compared to the previous year.29:25
