Great shots John. Welcome to my world! One the ice is in your veins, you can't leave it.

I have had many trips sitting in the back of that ute with Patrice driving across the sea ice ... always an adrenaline rush

And a minor correction - the runway next to the base has never been used - a looong story. All fixed wing aircraft use a skiway about 5 kms from Cap Prud'Homme up on the plateau.
