This section of the East Base camp pictured above was called "Dog Town" by members of the expedition. Each dog had an individual hut supplied to him for the duration of his stay which was made snug and comfortable comfort-able against the Antarctic weather. The Eskimo dogs were specially trained for hauling sledges and were regarded re-garded as extremely important members of the party. Antarctic birds may be seen in the background. |
