Looking across 20 miles of the Ross Ice Shelf at Ross Island, the summit of Mount Erebus volcano is 45 miles away. The dark area below Erebus is the Hut Point Peninsula where McMurdo Station is located at the end of the peninsula. Observation Hill can be made out on the right side of the peninsula, Arrival Heights on the left side, and Castle Rock is above and behind McMurdo. On the ice shelf below Hut Point you can see Pegasus Airfield, and several active science project locations.
