Changes

Even though some adventurers historically crossed to Baffin Island from the mainland, this is not something you should consider. The currents in the Hudson Strait are very strong and locals do not venture there, very few would cross by boat during summer. During winter, changes in the climate also make Arctic sea ice formation less predictable and reliable, and some straits that use to freeze fast cannot be trusted anymore.People also tend to believe that the Hudson Strait freezes over the winter, but multiple sources and local's knowledge contradict this.
