Whalers Bay

Deception Island. South Shetlands. Off Antarctic Pennisula.

The blonde in the foreground is a Russian girl passenger (probalbly around age 16 -- she seemed to be traveling with here grandmother). Russian was not one of the languages in which the expedition team gave lectures. She attended the lectures givein in English (and she may have spoken French too).

(26 Nov 2010)

She had been in hiking Group 2, the group that got stopped by blizzard conditions at the summit. Note how much ice has collected on her hat. She was not wearing a blue parka -- as I indicated wearing them was optional, but most people did wear them.
