As might be expected, this stretch of the ice-field was broken by innumerable crevasses, rendering any passage across it impossible. ❋ Unknown (2009)
As we thought, there was a side-glacier coming down into it, with large, ugly crevasses in many places; but it was not so bad as to prevent our finally reaching, with caution and using good brakes, the great main ice-field -- Axel Heiberg Glacier. ❋ Unknown (2009)
There was warmth in the air which could be felt, even on this immense ice-field. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Over by Fridtjof Nansen we could not go; this mountain here rose perpendicularly, in parts quite bare, and formed with the glacier a surface so wild and cut up that all thoughts of crossing the ice-field in that direction had to be instantly abandoned. ❋ Unknown (2009)
By its own power of impulsion our apparatus made a canal for itself; some times carried away by its own impetus, it lodged on the ice-field, crushing it with its weight, and sometimes buried beneath it, dividing it by a simple pitching movement, producing large rents in it. ❋ Unknown (2003)
The iceberg was by degrees becoming an ice-field, the mountain a plain. ❋ Unknown (2003)
These creatures have the instinct to break holes in the ice-field and to keep them open. ❋ Unknown (2003)

Then, impelled by its powerful screw, it attacked the ice-field from beneath like a formidable battering-ram. ❋ Unknown (2003)
It broke it by backing and then rushing forward against the field, which gradually gave way; and at last, dashing suddenly against it, shot forwards on the ice-field, that crushed beneath its weight. ❋ Unknown (2003)
This is “the pack,” the edge of a great ice-field broken by the swell. ❋ Unknown (2003)
There ten yards of wall separated us from the water, so great was the thickness of the ice-field. ❋ Unknown (2003)
Now there is ice as far as eye can see, that is “an ice-field.” ❋ Unknown (2003)
Chane Feldstone and the kender stood at the edge of a patterned ice-field and looked eastward. ❋ Parkinson, Dan (1990)
Chane thought abruptly of the ice-field - only a few miles away - where two kinds of dwarves remained fro - zen in bloody, ancient conflict. ❋ Parkinson, Dan (1990)
Ahead, just a few miles, was the textured ice-field where he had first met the kender, Chestal Thicketsway. ❋ Parkinson, Dan (1990)
