Ocean Ice

Yesterday I went out with another teacher to the other beach to see if there was open water. Apparently 2 days ago when they hunted and butchered a walrus the ocean was open. Yesterday, it wasn't.





Some of the ice piles were about 30 feet tall. This is from the tides pushing the ice up onto shore. Some of the ice was thicker than I was tall. It was an amazing feat of what nature can do.

This ice was really blue, but you can't see it in the picture. 

30 feet high of ocean ice. Some of that stuff was really thick!
