Fro bisher, Sir John Franklin to open up the northern route. But if the ice proved an obstacle to those sea navigators of past. just as it does to the modern ques, it cannot offer an impassible barrior to air navigation. Besides being the smallest of all the oceans, the Aretig is dotted with a large number of small is.
