Thank you Kevin for posting such a an fascinating story about a photographer's notes found of George Murry after a snow melt. What an adventure it must have been for you to visit the very same site.

When I was there, you had to bring a flashlight in to the hut because no electricity. Since it is freezing cold all the time, everything was left untouched as it was. Like their is a half eaten seal on the table they were eating before they left to the first discover the south pole. I wonder what is happening now, since the ice is melting.
