Antarctica -- October-November 2010

This was taken from one of the small boats once the weather had "cleared" enough to be able to see the cliffs on both side of the channel reasonably clearly. For much of the two hours or se we were in the small boats, these cliffs were only dimly visible through the fog and snow. They were pretty dramatic to seen in person, but the fog does not photograph well.

That's blowing snow at the top. This cliff is perhaps 400 or 500 feet high. The entire channel was lined with things like this.
