Midnight Sun & Dry Ice - Day 9 - Antarctica ExpeditionPosted by administrator in
LIVE coverage
Distance Covered: 12.06 Nautical Miles
87 of 600 Nautical Miles and counting!  a late night view of our camp ... the last photo uploaded successfully. I was just about to call it a day when I realized I had yet to show you the beauty of the Antarctican night...  Dry Ice Mist CO2 freezes at -78.5°C... when exposed to 'normal' temperatures, it sublimates producing 'fog', or fine mist. Though it's not quite -78°C in Antarctica, we have our own version of dry ice: Strong Winds coupled with Loose Snow. The winds of the past week have kicked and picked up a fine mist of snow that looks much like dry ice sublimating.  every morning we execute a special routine whereby we complete all our in-tent chores, then quickly arrange and aggregate our belongings into piles, so that the minute we open the tent door, we can rush our stuff straight from tent to sled as efficiently and rapidly as possible, and then 1-2-3 the camp is taken down and we're on our way! tags: maxime chaya, midnight, photo, bank audi, early, audi saradar group, day 9, antarctica, expedition, packing, south pole, quest, evelyne binsack, adrian hayes, picture, hans foss, devon mcdiarmid, camp, skis, skiing, lebanese, beirut, lebanon, mountaineer, max, maxim, chaaya, skiing, extreme sports, dry ice, late, morning

I have been following along with your adventures, and I just wanted to thank you so very much for thinking of your audience. I've loved your pictures and I so envy you where you are. It is a dream of mine to go and to write my first non-academic book.
So, I'm sending you some virtual North American warmth and a huge grin because you share an appreciation for the earth (and penguins!). Have a great Thanksgiving and stay safe!!! Regards, Lin aka wiinterrr
Hey Maxime, doing great.God be with u in every step. One qustion did you do the North Pole?
