A walk in the backyard

Penguin foot.

Head scratch!

Pieces of ice ready to fall off, sometime this summer!

What is left of the roof of the Point 8 cave. 

This is where the cave used to be, the ceiling collapsed in over the winter. 

I like how the light catches on the icicles. 

 

Ice of all shapes!

 

Nice weather window

Because of the week long nice weather window things have been very busy! I was able to get out to the Joubins and do some maintenance on the weather station out there. The site had not bee visited in two years so there was a lot to do!

There was a plane! Can you spot it? The nearest airport is about 200 miles north of Palmer of King George island. 

Mt William looking very impressive. 

A skua coming to check out the operation. 

Lots of snow, which is melting slower out in the Joubins (10 miles south of station). 

Perfect day for boating!!

Station dwarfed by Mt William.
