Even in-summer, only the directly southward facing slopes of
the mountains are free of snow for a few weeks, while in the val-
leys and on the northward slopes, the drifts remain eternally.
A large portion of the ice and bergs of Melville Bay
pass close along this coast in their slow drift westward toward
the southward Smith Sound current. Consequently the shore is
blockaded with ice during about 11 months of even the most favor-
able years, ) and the slightest increase in the severity of a season
beyond the normal, results in the coast being completely blockaded
with ice and rendered inaccessible throughout the entire year.
