But even the Arctic spring has its un-
pleasant side. The heat OF the sun, acting
upon the dark aud soggy lands and upon
the vast ice fields, causes dense vapor TO
rise, rendering navigation hazardous and
troublesome. Then, too, the continued
prevalence Of southerly winds drives the
ice into compact mass in the distant
whaling grounds, and unless northerly
winds set in the ships are prevented from
working their way to the limits. So tho
brief summer steals over these inhospitabs
regions, lasting but three months, when
the snow begins to fall again and the ices
embrace is once more over sea and land.
