These passages carved from the Antarctic ice hold strange shrines to the harsh southernmost climes.
Description
DEEP BELOW ONE OF THE world’s most remote outposts, a network of tunnels cut into the ice has come to house “shrines” dedicated to both the odd and the profound.
Since that time, adventurous station personnel have descended into the tunnels (the temperature of which hovers just below -60°F/-51°C) to create personal memorials to a wide array of Antarctic experiences. Some of these shrines commemorate specific Antarctic seasons or completed work projects, and some are just silly.
