PARTY (1)

Initially the suggestion was for two, four men parties working for approximately ten weeks. This was eventually cut to one, 6 man party to work between the Evans Néve in the South and Frolov Ridge in the North. The Eastern boundary being the Lillie Glacier and the Marazumi Range in the West. The following made up the party:
  • D. G. MASSAM - Leader
  • M. SHEEHAN - Deputy Leader
  • J. DOW - Senior Geologist
  • V. NEALL - Geologist
  • G. C CHAMPNESS - Field Assistant
  • J. GLASGOW - Field Assistant

M. Sheehan's knowledge of the area, having been on the previous Rennick Glacier trip, was of great help especially when working in the broken Rennick Glacier area. Due to the large area to be worked the trip was once again to be mainly reconnoitre.
