SHACKLETON'S HUT- friday 8 february





This hut is one Shackleton and his crew spent a winter in during one of his expeditions.

The heritage trust has been working hard to preserve both shackleton and Scott’s hut, and it's amazing to see that many artefacts have lasted till this day 96 years on.

I stumbled across the supply box of dog biscuits. I tried to imagine dogs in this harsh environment; the cold snow and the bone chilling wind, yet I can only picture Logan my retriever laying upside down on our couch waiting for a belly rub.
