Comments
It was a relief to arrive in the sheltered lee of the Western Ice Shelf yesterday. We have stooged back and fore, still exposed to the wind and driving snow but in far smaller seas.
We hope to leave here tonight and head back to Davis to complete unfinished business...
Cheers
Andy and Misty
