Rolling past Depot Peak

Back to my updates of old copied Antarctic slides. We were delayed for some days near Mt Twintops (previous image in series) by bad weather. We also had done our major climbing onto the Antarctic plateau at that point (to about 1500M above sea level), so we left one dozer there and reassembled everything into two trains of sleds. After a day's travel, again we were stopped by weather. Then at last, we had clear weather and good travelling. The D4 tractors rattled along at about walking speed and, with several fuel stops, we made a little over 25 miles (40 km) on our best day. Given the right conditions, such as this, walking alongside was enjoyable. Best viewed large.
