Above...the official 2013 winterover photo! An amazing group shot with thumbnails, put together (and provided to me) by Dave Anderson. I'm impressed! Here is a larger (1.9 mb) version...and I've got a much huger one available upon request. Thanks, Dave.


This is the 2013 Midwinters Day greeting card, sent out to all of the other Antarctic stations.

No people are in the photo above...well, it wasn't winter yet. The celebration included 50+ people, including crew and other folks from the LMG, which (while absent from the above idyllic photo) was in port for the festivities.

The LMG had been scheduled to head north on 27 June, but the departure was delayed until 2 July to allow for a bit more progress by the crew constructing the boat ramp...among other things.

The 22 folks who stayed behind when the LMG left:

Juliet Alla David (Dave) Anderson William (Jon) Charczuk Robert (Bob) DeValentino Matthew Dinon Mutjarin (Gift) Glimchit Rhiannon Henning

Michael (Mike) Hiller Urjeet Khanwalkar Ashley Nelson Daniel (Dan) Nielsen Jon Olander Sean O'Neill Janice O'Reilly Cedar Reimer

Michael Rousseau Brand (Harry) Snyder Yuki Takahashi Graham Tilbury Ryan Wallace Madie Willis Darren Yates

Here's a view of the framed w/o photo from Glenn Grant.
