You put on your ECW clothing and step outside into the chilly air. It's a beautiful day at the bottom of the world -- the sky is completely empty, and the snow is dazzling in the sunlight. You see a C-130 parked at the South Pole international terminal, engines roaring. As you start walking towards DSL, you hear a buzzing sound emerge above the noise of the engines. Looking behind you, you see a snowmobile headed your way. |
