RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES

25. Contrary to popular belief CRP personnel do not have a lot of spare time to recreate in the Cape Roberts-Granite Harbour area. Having said that recreational trips were made as far north as Cape Ross and south to the Debenham Glacier ice caves. The most popular area was Granite Harbour as indicated in Para 22 above. Ascents were made of Mts England, Marston, Haystack and Doublefinger by small parties. The most common form of recreation, other than relaxing around Camp, was to take one of the local walks - to CR or the cluster of icebergs to the north of the Camp or to First View Point in Granite Harbour or up to the Piedmont repeater.
