Antarctica Part 2

Part 1 was awhile ago….but we had to wait on some edits for the next installment. By far one of the coolest aspects of being in such a crazy place was seeing and taking photos of the few things that do scratch out a living. There’s a reason why so many people just go down to view the wildlife and feel what its like to be so far away from everything else. Having epic mountains to shred sure is a bonus though! So here’s a peak at what its like living in Antarctica.

The feeling of isolation and being a really long way away from anything is amazing

In the background is Mt. Francois, which is 11,000 feet high. Obviously it starts at sea level, that is some heavy relief. One of the craziest parts of the trip was try to have perspective on how high, far and steep everything was.
