Comments
Very slow headway through a difficult band of ice off Mawson. Recent bad weather seems to have repositioned ice in worst possible location. Stopped forward movement for the time being and commenced fly-off operations. Mawson SL to ship and returned to station. At this stage uncertain if we will get into Horseshoe Harbour. Regards, Michael and Simon
