We’re working in the western central McMurdo Dry Valleys, where the Taylor and Wright outlet glaciers cross over the Transantarctic Mountains. Our field and camp sites are in the valleys of Pearse, Taylor, and Wright (both North and South Fork). The two permanent camps, which are where the internet is, are at Lake Hoare and Lake Bonney. The Labyrinth wins the prize for my favorite McMurdo name.
