Coldest place on earth: forbidding, foreboding Antarctica shrouded in ice and mystery, The

Abstract

Report on trip to Antarctica, environmental conservation, January-February, 2000. Antarctica is the coldest, windiest, loneliest place on Earth--nature in her wildest and most relentless moods. This is the uninhabited continent, not just by humans, but quite forbidding for land animals. The penguins and seals are only marginally on land. Just this extreme wildness proved Antarctica's deepest attraction.
