Specialist conservators are carefully preserving the Ross Sea Party tent, protecting its story for the future.
The Trust’s On-Ice Conservation team spent thirteen weeks in Antarctica this season, from early November until late January, undertaking an intensive digital data capture project, followed by the annual conservation programme at the historic Ross Island explorer bases of Captain Robert Falcon Scott, Sir Ernest Shackleton, and Sir Edmund Hillary.
The largest and most challenging task this 2021/22 season was at Shackleton’s Nimrod hut at Cape Royds.
