Day 18 – A day in pictures and videos

InBounties-Antipodes 2022, Field workBySite admin

Clear day with westerly conditions. Jeff, Hannah & Thomas make their way to Alert Bay. Encounter finger post above the cliff.

Hannah not looking particularly thrilled about having encountered an historic relic – the finger pointer showing the way to the castaway depot.
“PROVISION DEPOT – MILES”

Fly drone manually way below cliff.

Smallish Erect-crested penguin colonies with a few individual Rockhopper nests on the fringes. Spotted Dougall Stream waterfall.

Then up the hill and across to the point separating Alert and Crater Bay. Flew more manual missions from the point way down below the launch spot.

One hour slog up to the top of the ridge.

Relatively easy going from there. Past giant petrel nests along the ridge almost all the way to the hut.

A giant petrel chick on top of the ridge towering over Crater Bay; Bollons Island in the background.

Easy drop to trail and home by 6pm.
