View to the north

Looking forward - to ipernity's problems hopefully being solved early in the coming year... I'll be back in a few days.

Copied (too small) from an old slide. View from the edge of the icecap behind Mawson station, early 1966, looking across the base itself, Horseshoe Harbour (beginning to freeze over), and to the islands and icebergs beyond. The surface here is blue ice: glassy hard and slippery, so my friend is wearing crampons to ensure a grip.
