Photo: Ice hampers maritime traffic in Iqaluit

Huge chunks of sea ice still clogged Iqaluit’s harbour area Aug. 3, playing havoc with the offloading of sealift cargo vessels and threatening this year’s Students on Ice expedition. Scores of Students on Ice participants and educators remain stranded in Iqaluit, unable to use zodiac boats to get to their vessel, the Akademik Ioffe, which was anchored just off Iqaluit Aug. 3.
