A Ford with 4 flats. Here is a pickup everyone needs for beach fishing, and going to the mall. They do not corner well. This model comes with a map of the continent on the door, just in case you get lost. Too bad they do not make it in a Dodge.

A close up of the wheel unit.

This is the McMurdo T-Site (Transmitter Site) located on one of the hills above McMurdo. Here you will antennas for radio links at all frequencies. If you look closely, there are two riggers on top of one of the towers.

This is Mike, KC8FYM, who has the unbelievable job of a refrigeration technician in Antarctica. I wonder if in his off time, he sells refrigerators to Eskimos?

This is the main entrance to the newly remodeled Galley Building. The hand washing station is on the left. The coat rooms are straight ahead. The store is on the right.

A view of McMurdo from Hut Point. The hut in the left foreground is the Discovery Hut Built By Robert F. Scott on his 1902 Antarctic Expedition.

This is the Sea Ice Runway, with the Trans-Antarctic Mountains in the Background. The runway is about 10,000 feet long, and a few meters thick.

This is the road leading to the Ham Shack on Saturday November 16, 2002. The temperature got up to 24 degrees, and the sun was warming the roads. This is why some folks call McMurdo, McMuddo. It looks like Alaska in April.

Snowfall in McMurdo alternates with windstorms carrying volcanic grit. The result when sliced, is a wood grain looking alternation of white and black.

Here is a 24-hour southern hemisphere sundial. Please note the direction of the numbers on the face. This is due to the sun going counter-clockwise in the shy. And if you were wondering, the moon is also upside down from the northern hemisphere.

Here is another shot of Mount Erebus, the smoking volcano on Ross Island. I seem to be always taking pictures of the volcano, which looks different each day.
