I dunno... wrong. You say 1000 to 4000 people at South Pole depending on the season? Sorry bro but there is only one south pole station and it cannot, ever, accomodate 1000 people. try 300 in the summer (max) and about 60-90 winter (depending on budget).<BR/><BR/>Your source is about Antarctica... NOT the south pole. Calling all of the Antarctica as "south pole" is like calling all of Europe by the name London. Or better yet, its like calling All of north America by the name of Quebec.icedudenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-59556835792233720312009-01-15T09:30:00.000-08:002009-01-15T09:30:00.000-08:00It's amazing to see these kinds of bases, I wonder how much money has been spent on bases that are abandoned.Survival Spothttp://www.survival-spot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-86146157138517785242008-12-31T08:12:00.000-08:002008-12-31T08:12:00.000-08:00You left out Byrd Surface CampAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-59847652921324806052008-12-17T21:16:00.000-08:002008-12-17T21:16:00.000-08:00I would LOVE to explore these places!Juliehttp://xenya.etsy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-21996451264854667282008-12-11T00:30:00.000-08:002008-12-11T00:30:00.000-08:00Correct, its not a harpoon its a power saw for slicing the heads of whales prior to boiling down. I have seen one of these in action at Cheynes beach whaling station at Albany Western australia, 1970s.

I stood next to his bed and saw the newspaper he left on the table. I admit that I felt a very eerie feeling and think that the 5 that died visit their abandoned huts.<BR/><BR/>The article only mentions Discovery Hut but the better preserved is the one at Cape Evans where they were last. You can still smell the ponies.<BR/><BR/>via reddit.ka-paihttp://www.reddit.com/user/ka-pai/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-8492253595386941082008-12-10T09:04:00.000-08:002008-12-10T09:04:00.000-08:001:53 AM is quite correctLimey Lurkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05972457890360990300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-23252162760399787292008-12-10T05:07:00.000-08:002008-12-10T05:07:00.000-08:00Speaking of Mountains of Madness and aliens, I would recommend the reading of "At the Mountains of Madness", by H.P. Lovecraft. A great novel depicting the epic journey of a scientific expedition on the antarctic continent.frechhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500212268748639509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-23712687482816291812008-12-10T01:53:00.000-08:002008-12-10T01:53:00.000-08:00that's not a harpoon, it's an early power sawAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
