Going for a Stroll out on the Frobisher Bay

Jacquie and I along with some friends took a stroll out onto Frobisher Bay. It was a cool day, however we were dressed for the ocassion with lined pants and snow pants on top. Jacquie and I both had 4 layers under our Canada Goose parkas as well as hand warmers for our gloves. So even thought it was -24C with a wind chill of -32, we were quite comfortable. Some of the group we travelled with did get cold, however we shared some thermal socks, hand warmers and hats and all went well.



This is the mottly crew that took off for our walk.

We walked for a little over an hour out onto the bay. We were headed for Rabbit Island. Interestingly there aren't any rabbits on the Island, perhaps the wolves got them. When we got out there we found some crevices in the ice caused by the tide. It was fun hiding in them. Here are a few photo's of us hiding in the ice on the bay.



We had a little snack and headed back into Iqaluit. Altogether we were out for about three hours and a fun time was had by all.
