Arriving at Patriot Hills Base 5 hours later, the Ilyushin has just landed in Antarctica. View from Patriot Hills logistics base – Alt. = 3000 ft. Katabatic winds coming down the mountain can reach 100 mph! Pitching our tents (Eric - front, and Larry) at base. One is 2-person, the other 1-person. We alternate at each camp.
