DO YOU BELIEVE IN GHOSTS? THEY’RE REAL, YOU KNOW…......YOU CAN SEE THEM!

You have to go where it’s REALLY COLD, so they don’t deteriorate over time…...we’re speaking, of course, of the abandoned structures left behind over the years, as courageous human beings explored the least known continent on earth…..

It’s not only buildings….an enormous amount of equipment and other “stuff” was moved down there to support the explorers, and much of it was abandoned when they died, or sailed away, or otherwise escaped the fierce and deadly climate that has preserved their flotsam and jetsam so thoroughly.

The most famous and disturbingly well-preserved of these places is the camp built by Robert Scott and his party on Ross Island in 1911. The seaweed-insulated wooden cabin and its outbuildings were supposed to be the team’s shelter when they returned from their attempt to be the first people to visit the South Pole.
