  • Well signed bunkhouse at Black Island. If you watch the film "Antarctica: A Year on the Ice" you will see this bunk house when the film maker, Anthony Powell, visits Black Island in the winter, and the entire inside of this bunk house is filled with snow and ice.

  • Pictured is George Murray Levick’s jotted notes in a photo exposure guide booklet, recently found buried in the ice at Cape Evans. It’s shown to me here by Lizzie Meek, program artifacts manager at the Antarctic Heritage Trust. Touching artifacts in the huts is strictly off limits, and the only person who could be holding this notebook is Lizzie, as she was returning it to the hut as an artifact of Scott’s 1911-1914 Terra Nova expedition. Levick was a photographer and surgeon with the Eastern Party, which became the Northern Party when they discovered Amundsen at the Bay of Whales, embarking on his quest to be the first to the South Pole. Because of Amundsen’s presence Levick’s team looked for other quarters to carry out their program. When the relief ship failed to pick them up they endured one of the most difficult over winters in Antarctic history in an ice cave on Inexpressible Island, surviving on Weddell Seals, burning blubber for light and warmth.
