Sea Ice Training
Our Haggelund in front of Mt. Discovery with the incoming C-17 flying overhead.
Kevin, our fearless leader, drilling a hole into the sea ice.
Adding on another 3' addition to the drill
Putting the drill with the extensions on it down into the hole to drill further down.
Once we hit water, then we check the depth of the ice with this handy little tool.
An iceberg from last season froze into the new sea ice over the winter. I thought it looked a little strange... I didn't remember seeing it last year.
Drilling in the ice near Cape Evans and the Terra Nova hut. You can see the hut behind the guy on the left.
The emperors we saw on the way home. I was so lucky getting this picture!
