Transport:

All transport in the field was by helicopter, with the put-in to Robertson Ridge, transfer to Meserve Glacier and return to Scott Base all being on schedule. This was due to good weather, and the efficiency of VXE-6 and the OICs at Scott Base. One minor problem was the lack of Hercules flights from McMurdo to Christchurch due to the requirements of the Beardmore Glacier Antarctic Treaty meeting, and meant spending 5-6 days at Scott Base after finishing fieldwork.
