Breakfast W/Friends July Edition: Arctic Ocean Event Cache

The smallest, coldest, and shallowest of the oceans of the world, the Arctic Ocean is located in the Northern Hemisphere’s Arctic north polar region. The Arctic Ocean has a roughly circular basin that is nearly enclosed by the continental landmasses of North America, Eurasia, Greenland, and several smaller islands. The area occupied by the ocean is about 15,558,000 square km, and its coastline extends for 45,389 km. The maximum recorded depth is found to be 18,456 feet. The Bering Strait connects the Arctic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean

The Arctic Ocean is located in a polar climatic zone characterized by frigid year-round temperatures. Long hours of darkness engulf the ocean during winters and summers are characterized by continuous daylight. The marine habitat of the Arctic Ocean is a fragile ecosystem that is highly susceptible to slight disruptions in weather. Threatened species of whales and walruses inhabit the ocean. Plant life in the Arctic Ocean is scarce except for abundant volumes of phytoplanktons. The Lion’s mane jellyfish and the banded gunnel are among the few species of marine creatures inhabiting the Arctic Ocean’s waters.

This event is the perfect time to share your plans, goals for this up coming summer!!!  We would also love to hear your recent advenures, upcoming adventures, recent highlight caches, even dud caches.... I want to hear about it all.  Photos are helpful too. I'm looking forward to catching up with everyone.  If you think of it drag a friend along with you.
