Thank you for answering octopod.

- The size of the island would be of about 2 500 square miles.
- For the land/ice thing, I don't really know. If you say the latter is more realistic, it would be that. Sorry for my lack of knowledge in geography.
- I changed ''lush forests'' by ''boreal forests'', makes more sense. And there would be forests only on the extreme southern part.

f you have other questions just ask!
