The Sea is to the East (right), the Glacier in front is called Commonwealth; we are headed WEST.......

Ahead is Canada Glacier -- the first of (4) Glaciers we will fly over....


We fly OVER Canada Glacier to Lake Hoare on the other side....
And proceed to fly OVER Suess Glacier ......

And then over Lacroix Glacier, to reach Priscu Stream......

And over our last Glacier, Matterhorn Glacier and Lake Bonney.....


Lake Bonney is surrounded on its Western end by (3) Glaciers:
