Intro

So I am heading to New Zealand on Saturday the 1st of November. I will be spending a few days in Christchurch before heading down to McMurdo base which is technically on Ross Island off the coast of Antarctica, but there is only ice between McMurdo and Antarctica, so it's Antarctica in my book.


Here's a map of Antarctica.


Here is a link for those of you with extra time or want more information on the U.S. Antarctic Program. Participant Guide.



Mailing Info I'm a part of Project A142-M

McMurdo is in the same time zone as New Zealand, so I'll generally be a day ahead of those in California and Hawaii.

Here are some links with photos and info from different collaborators on ANITA, the project I am involved with

Hawaii's somewhat lacking page
Photos from Ohio State
UCI's page even though they are no longer involved
