Other vessels are unlikely to brave these waters,where they risk being hulled by an iceberg.
其他船只不可能冒險來這里 在這里很有可能被冰川撞破
There's a better chance of being spotted out in open water.But I'm fighting a losing battle.
在無冰海面被發現的幾率會高很多 但是我們的情況越來越窘迫了
There's more and more ice in the water now.I must be getting close to its source.
水里的浮冰越來越多 我應該是正駛向這些冰的來源
Ahead of the field, see that glacier?This time of year, there's big chunks of ice just carving off that.
看這片海的那頭 看到那些冰川了嗎 每年的這個時候 大塊的冰 會從那里的冰川上滑落

The best option -- to get out to the shipping lanes and find a vessel.

Too far to see us.We need to make our way to that ice flow,
太遠了 看不到我們 我們得想辦法到那塊浮冰那兒去
bigger one. Try and make a bit of a signal fire there.And get spotted like that.
大的那塊 然后試著生一團信號火 這樣就能被發現了
My plan -- get to the iceberg quickly and signal from there.It's about the biggest one around here.
我的計劃是 迅速到浮冰上 然后從那里發信號 這大概是附近最大的浮冰了
