Arrival at PCM Nov 1966

We reached the Prince Charles Mountains late at night, with a snowtrac ahead as a scout vehicle searching for crevasses. These are more prevalent near mountains, the old adage being "if you can see mountains, you're too close". Sure enough, about eight km before reaching the mountains the vehicles began to hit "slots", so that was our limit with the heavy D4s and their trains and became our camp for three weeks. I spent much of my time on the mountain at the right, assisting with the survey.
