Trip to Platcha Hut

Some months back there was a trip to Platcha Hut on a clean and maintenance trip. The scenery was just awesome.

Stocktake and resupply packing

It is a busy time of year with packing, reordering and stock take, thoughts of heading back home, but as you can see it is all hands on deck with only two weeks to go.

Almost time

It’s a very short station news this week as everyone is busy packing their personal effects to have them ready for RTA (Return to Australia). With the Aurora Australis looking to leave Hobart early next week, life on station has picked up the pace in preparation for her arrival.
