My world is terribly small here, with hiking options limited, so this week I returned to Hut Ridge, the perfect vantage point for watching the Icebreaker work the now open shipping channel, and to look down on the Maersk Peary, the fuel tanker that sits in port.
wow. Do you know who put the statue of the Holy Mother there?
ReplyDelete"Roll Cage Mary" is a memorial to a guy who died when his dozer fell through the ice, back in the early days on the Antarctic program. I'd have to check the sign for the exact date, but I believe it's been there since the sixties.
Deleteso interesting. i love that statue too, even though the reason for it is sad.
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know, Carrie!
