Weather
Blowing snow, low cloud, poor definition and falling snow resulted in the loss of over 30 days. The consistently bad weather experienced makes it difficult to suggest any areas which with unusual weather characteristics except that Minna Bluff was realty unpleasant. Talks with other people who have worked in the Minna Bluff area confirm that this place is often very windy. We advise parties travelling over land not to camp within 20 km of Minna Bluff.
