ISLAND Entering Pine Island Bay and continuing all the way to the South end, past the 75th parrallel was perhaps GLACIER ' S greatest achievement of DF 85 ' . No ship had ever made the last 30 NM to the end, though the Burton Island gave it a good try in 1975. The charts we carried in were very rough and incomplete due to lack of information (no depths were shown and the positions of land and glaciers were all estimated, inaccurately as we found out). Both the Bridge and CIC had an excellent, if hectic, time madly plotting corrections to our vague charts. The scientists were ecstatic, having finally gotten all the way in. Helo ops became a daily routine to find paths through the ice. Underneath our jubilation at exploring the unknown, fear lurked. Realistically, we were all alone in uncharted water with the end of the Antarctic shipping season rapidly closing in on us! Secretly all wondered: Would GLACIER be forced to winter over? ' With our usual finesse we left Pine Island Bay to continue home with our morale intact. 70

GERLACHE STRAITS A desolate landscape of gray- green crags etched in with snow, twisting around the Antarctic Peninsu- la, it is filled with fjords and bays, many still known only to the Krill, whales, and birds that live there. The Gerlache Straits were the most scenic and awesome area in our tour of Antarc- tica - with its soaring cliffs, powerful glaciers, and silent sapphire depths. A dreamscape brought to earth by the practical business of Krill chasing and coring. 71
