  Whoa! This ship is hard!

Every summer, the Coast Guard moves this breaker south to clear out the path to McMurdo.

It is critical to the winter operations at McMurdo. Only one cargo ship arrives here each year, keeping the station running during winter.

Mode: TO
Type: Ship/Boat

Review Helpfulness: 4.5 out of 5 stars
