South Pole Pictures!

First off, enjoy these pictures our team at the South Pole!





Celebration, reflection and relaxation, that's been the order of the day for the team during their stay at Union Glacier. One of the unexpected perks of travelling to the remote ends of the earth is meeting all kinds of interesting people. Seems strange to make so many friends in such, for the most part, uninhabited areas, but it's the way these trips always go. As more and more people return to Union Glacier from the South Pole, our team's celebration of their own successful expedition has steadily become a base-camp-wide celebration of a successful South Pole season.



The team expects to fly from Antarctica to Patagonia sometime in the next day or so. The transition from base camp to small Chilean city will further their reintegration to "normal" society. Hot air hand driers truly are things of beauty after weeks of rubbing warmth back into your hands out on the ice!
