Looks like heaven!
This low cloud-ceiling would later prove to be a huge nuissance, preventing the helicopter from flying in to pick us up. We had to dig into our survival bags, set up camp on Fang Glacier and spend the night on Mount Erebus! The trails in this photo marked where we marched, roped together and 'en echelon,' across the glacier.
