Abstract
Sept. 18th [1824]. The young bay ice was found this morning to have formed over Barrows Straits, in which we were firmly fixed until next morning, when a smart breeze from the north broke it all up again and let us free to work up to the head of the bay; passing several whales and sea urchins en route. The young bay ice which had formed in sheltered places had, by the strong wind, been converted into (what is known here as) Pan-cake ice. The ships bored their way through with difficulty.
