November 2nd



This evening was the most extreme weather we've seen yet. The low reached -51F with the windchill.

The boss scheduled a moral builder for the nightcrew. At 6am, we walked nearly a mile to Hut Point to take a tour of the historic hut. The windchill was -45F and it was super windy. We had to lean all the way into the wind and were repeatedly blown a few steps sideways by the wind. Everything inside the hut has been preserved for nearly 100 years. There were lots of wooden boxes, slabs of meat, metal tins, pants hanging on a line and old shoes and such.
