I wanted to get one last hike up to Castle Rock in before I left Antarctica. A group of us hiked up last Sunday. It took Jenny, Rick, Evan, Nicole and I about four and a half hours.
On top. You can see the channel in the distance cut by the icebreaker Oden to get into McMurdo Sound.
Jenny, Rick and Nicole. Nicole is a Kiwi down here with the New Zealand army.
View of Mt. Erebus, an active volcano, from the top.

View from the top of the Ross Sea ice shelf with open water in the background.
Heading home with, I believe, Mt. Discovery in the distance.
View of town with open water.
