Restoring explorers' Antarctic huts
The summer sun shines through the clouds above the Ross Island hut used by Sir Robert Falcon Scott on the Discovery expedition in 1902.
A restoration crew from New Zealand Antarctic Heritage Trust spent more than a decade restoring four sites used by Scott, Ernest Shackleton and Carsten Borchgrevink.
Terra Nova hut
Conservator Nicola Dunn works at the Cape Evans hut used by Robert Falcon Scott in 1911 during the Terra Nova expedition.
The expedition reached the South Pole, the first for a British expedition, but one month after a Norwegian expedition led by Roald Amundsen became the first people to reach the Pole.
All members of Scott's polar team died.

Shackleton's hut at Cape Royds
Ernest Shackleton's first expedition, the Nimrod Expedition, built a hut at Cape Royds on Ross Island in 1908. Three cases of scotch whiskey and two cases of brandy were found in the hut.
The huts were last used in 1917 and not re-entered until after World War II.

Negatives found frozen at the hut used by Scott's Terra Nova Expedition and later by the Ross Sea Party for Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. The images were photographed between 1914 and 1917 by the Ross Sea Party for Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition.

The negatives were found frozen in Captain Scott's 1911 expedition base at Cape Evans, Ross Island.
Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antartic Expedition was to cross the continent from the Weddell Sea to the Ross Sea, where the images were found. Shackleton's ship, Endurance, was crushed by the sea ice and the team had to retreat.
