The Scott Hut

Today after work I went for a walk to Hut Point here on Ross Island.  This is where Robert Falcon Scott's Discovery Hut is located.  The hut was used for the 1901-1904 expedition.  It was later used by Shackleton during his 1908 expedition.


Also located on hut point is Vince Cross.  This is the cross to commemorate T. Vince of the expedition who died in an area close to here.
