The ice conditions around the community of Nain have slowly formed over the winter.
Joey Angnatok is with Sikumiut.
He says the ice formed good; kind of late from the weather but it has formed.
Over the winter, the ice has a height of two and a half feet ever since Christmas.
Angnatok adds that the Umiak1 will be coming at the end of the month, so everyone is asked to watch out for the tracks when the ship comes.
