Cascading Peaks
Port Lockroy, Antarctica
Black & white photograph of mountain peaks from Port Lockroy, Antarctica. The harbour at Port Lockroy was used for whaling during the early 1900's, and later, during World War II, as a British military base and then research station, until 1962. Today, Port Lockroy is home to a small museum and the southern-most post office on the planet (operated by the United Kingdom Antarctic Heritage Trust). Photo © copyright by Jim Waterbury.
