From Mt Twintops

An updated copy from an old 1966 slide. I was assisting with the surveying from this peak (mainly lugging equipment uphill). Here looking down on our tractors, caravans, and the tracks they left as we arrived (view large and they are easier to find). The "cloud" effect is from light on sastrugi (ridged snow), the blurred black foreground was from the rocks close to me. This was our first major camp on the field trip and, having climbed the steepest part of the rise onto the plateau, we depoted one of the bulldozers here, continuing with just two.

Totally mind-bending to think about, George. Thank you so much for taking the time to scan in these slides so all of us can enjoy your adventured in Antarctica. You know, it was your wonderful images of Antarctica that drew me to your stream originally, back when I first joined ipernity, and then I learned what a cool, talented and interesting fellow you are and I was hooked for good! :D Thanks for the info on this image...it's really so incredible to me. I think I'd be a bit frightened to be out there unless surrounded by a group of professionals like yourselves, and not so far away from main camp that we could get back if a storm started coming in. YIKES! It's so nice to explore this place through your eyes!
