If you had actually seen Mt Erebus you would realise that it is not just flat snow but, on a good day, is most spectactular active volcano. On a bad day it is solid cloud




The surrounding area is also magnificent with the low sun showing fantastic relief as you can see from the photo taken from a QANTAS flight when sightseeing resumed.



Spent two and a half years flying in Antarctica and it is not a place to make a mistake. - it bites back.
