It was incredible. I made some short videos with the new GoPro Hero 7 (which is an amazing little camera!) that can share some of the experience.
Here is the GPS route: https://vimeo.com/296942302 ; and a helicopter ride from the ship to the base camp: https://vimeo.com/297477905
More on the vimeo site.
Enjoy,
Mike

Like David Said,we the mortals can only dream to get shots like this. Amazing capture with the small chick resting on parents feet keeping warm.
Hats off to these birds that can survive in conditions like this. You want talk about harsh conditions, Antarctica is harsh as it gets, especially in winter.

Thanks for sharing Mike.
