Back at Union Glacier...

After a celebratory night (that lasted into the wee hours of the morning!) the team flew back to Union Glacier today. The relative warmth of Union Glacier's southern latitude (almost 700 miles south of the Pole!) was a welcome change from the downright cold conditions at the South Pole.

South Pole Celebrations lasted to the early morning!

 The team enjoyed a celebratory dinner and good companionship with the many other adventurers at Union Glacier including our South Pole Last Degree ski team.

The weather is good and they will take advantage of this window to fly by returning to Punta Arenas tomorrow. We will update the blog again tomorrow, so make sure to check back again!
