The Ultimate Wilderness!
ANTARCTICA & SOUTH SHETLAND ISLANDS
January 21-February 3, 2005

Considered by scientists and travelers as one of the most pristine regions and challenging environments on earth, Antarctica offers some of the world's most magnificent wilderness areas, with awesome mountain ranges, breathtaking tidewater glaciers, and dazzling scenery. Antarctica holds answers to the world's past climates in the thousands of years of data stored in the ice layers at the polar cap. It has been bombarded by meteorites and some have come from the moon and even Mars. The long Antarctic summer sunlight creates rich ocean waters for feeding. Large numbers of humpback whales, crill, penguins, seals, and albatross are found there. Join us and discover the magnificence of Antarctica.
