AH . . . so it's you. I knew there was someone here who had a "jones" for the Snow Cruiser. I was thinking of you when I saw these photos which I believe I have never posted before.

Wouldn't it be nice to have Robert Ballard try to locate it. Unfortunately it will probably be lost forever due to shifting ice. It could be a thousand miles away from it's original abandonment point.

Maybe someday when highly sophisticated satellites with super sensitive magnetometers are aimed over Antarctica in search of precious rare earth metals it will be accidentally discovered.
