In the Canadian Arctic, spring is also coming. At this time, the sun ceases to set, and local animals begin their migration to the north. With the onset of the Arctic spring, Inuit families and their children go camping that last a week. But there is one problem - the ice of the Arctic is rapidly melting, and this affects the life of Inuit groups.
Spring change
After the end of winter, Inuit go hiking not by chance. Moving away from the usual places, adults begin to teach children the peculiarities of their culture, as well as hunting skills.
All this information has been passed on from generation to generation for 5, 000 years.
But over the past three decades, the familiar situation has begun to change. The essence of the problem boils down to the fact that the oldest and thickest ice is actively melting. Its quantity is rapidly decreasing, and this is bad.
Perennial ice is the basis of a well-established marine Arctic ecosystem.

It was a source of fresh water and allowed Inuit elders to make safe routes. Now it is very difficult to do this, since the amount of old ice has been reduced by 95%.
Lifestyle changes
The changes that are taking place in the Arctic are forcing Inuit to change their usual rules of life.
The nature of animal migration also becomes different.
For these reasons, it is difficult to predict what the future holds for the Arctic zone.
Due to the melting process, breakouts form in sea ice. In this regard, Inuit have to re-calculate their routes carefully and carefully. During family trips, it is necessary to carefully organize the process of crossing through areas with melted ice.
It is necessary to transport heavy sledges filled with supplies for weekly movements.
Such difficulties do not stop the inhabitants of the Arctic, and they, one way or another, go on family trips.

His wife Martha fell ill at the time of the trip and therefore felt noticeable weakness. But she insisted on the topic no less than to go along with everyone to transfer the knowledge of their ancestors to a new generation.
A considerable part of such information relates to the rules and tricks of life beyond the boundaries of familiar land.
What does youth do
Young Inuit spend a lot of time hunting. A striking example of such youth are Edmond and Logan Willie. These are twins who have reached the age of 15.
Arriving at their camp, located in Nuvukutaak, they began to hunt snow geese, tracking them under the light of the midnight Arctic sun.
Noticeable activity is also shown by women with small children. They take the kids with them for fishing. To do this, in the Inuit women's wardrobe there is a special park with built-in baby carry.
