Cape Evans will be the location of an ice hole for our use. To cut
the hole and set up the hut we traveled by snowmobile along a 15 mile
route, in clear weather but strong winds. Cape Evans is famous as
the location of the hut used by Scott in his attempt of 1911.

This map aboveshows the route we traveled over the ice.

Here are some scenes enroute:
