Dear Adventurer
Peter Harrison
Our Antarctic expedition is ideally timed during the height of the austral summer and presents
an unparalleled opportunity to discover the multi-faceted treasures of the worlds southernmost
realm. Weather and ice conditions will determine our path and landings, just as they governed
the voyages of Antarctic explorers in the past. We take full advantage of our f leet of Zodiacs to
reach remote shores and to cruise among stunning formations of grounded icebergs. The longdaylight hours mean we can affect several landings a day. And, as always with Zegrahm, youll
travel in the company of veteran leaders and renowned lecturers, who provide insight into the
natural wonders and historic legacy along our route.
From Ushuaia we set sail for the beautiful Falkland Islands and their extensive populations
of rockhopper, gentoo, and Magellanic penguins, as well as the regal black-browed albatross.
We then cruise to South Georgia, made famous by explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. During
our three days here we observe the largest concentration of wildlife anywhere in the world.
Walk beaches covered with elephant and fur seals and watch penguins tending to their chicks.The rocky shores and pristine coves harbor thousands of king penguins, the second-largest
and perhaps the most beautiful of all penguin speciesa photographers dream. South Georgia
is also home to gentoo, chinstrap, and macaroni penguins, and four types of albatross, including
the majestic wandering albatross.
During five days of expeditionary landings on the Antarctic Peninsula and its adjoining islands
we explore remote areas not possible on shorter visits. Here towering icebergs of all shapes and
sizes; Weddell, leopard, and crabeater seals; Adelie and chinstrap penguins; and a bewitching
landscape that defies imaginationcreate impressions that will last a lifetime.
For Antarctica history buffs, birders, photographers, and lovers of wilderness areas, this voyage
should be one of lifes mandatory travel experiences. We hope you will join us.
Warmest regards,
Peter Harrison & Shirley Metz

and marine mammals that flourish in these
nutrient-rich waters.
Wednesday
Friday, February 2
4South GeorgiaFlexibility in this area is a must. Many of our
leaders have been to South Georgia numerous
times and, if the weather is in our favor, we
may want to make a landing before breakfast
or even after dinner. We call at some of the
many islands, bays, and coves where we can see
outstanding birdlife and elephant and fur seals
close at hand. The following is a list of placeswe plan to visit on South Georgia. Some of
them are pending final government approval.
Elsehul Bay This beautiful bay is home
to thousands of fur seals as well as macaroni
penguins, the most numerous of all penguin
species. Listen for the high-pitched trumpeting
of king penguins amid the magnificent sounds
of marine mammals that echo the bay.Salisbury Plain Two glaciers f lank

Thomas Baechtold Peter Harrison
Jack S. Grove Peter Harrison
Here, more than 200,000 king penguins
congregate and breed, and we are greeted
by one of the more remarkable sightsandsoundson Earth.
Stromness Bay Site of Sir Ernest
Shackleton and his partys arrival after their
harrowing crossing of the islands glaciers
on foot, Stromness offers views of cliffs and
a glacier from which the adventurer and his
companions descended.
Grytviken We go ashore and explore
here, discovering the old ruins of this once-
active whaling station. The cemetery holds a
special fascination, as it is here that Shackleton
is buried. Walking along the coast, we spy
seabirds, penguins, and marine mammals.
Gold Harbour At the foot of the
Bertrab Glacier, Gold Harbour is often
referred to as the jewel in the islands crown.In addition to a large king penguin colony,
we are likely to see elephant and fur seals,
gentoo penguins, giant petrels, and perhaps
even some light-mantled albatross.
Saturday, February 5
South Scotia Sea
Our lecture series continues as we venture
south. Naturalists recap our memorable visitto South Georgia and introduce us to the
history, geology, and wildlife of the Antarctic
Peninsula and its surrounding islands.
Sunday, February 6
South Orkney Islands
These mountainous islands were once knownas The Inaccessible Islands. In winter a
solid sheet of fast ice joins this island group
to the Antarctic Peninsula, some 450 miles
away. A scene of unparalleled beauty awaits,
with penguins everywhere, including Adelie,
chinstrap, gentoo, and the occasional
macaroni penguin.
Monday, February 7Elephant Island
This morning we arrive at Elephant Island,
made famous by the Shackleton expedition.
Awesome glaciers, speckled with pink algae,
create a dramatic backdrop. Weather permit-
ting, we enjoy a Zodiac cruise around the
island and have an opportunity to view a
thriving chinstrap penguin colony.
TuesdaySaturday, February 812
Antarctic Peninsula
As we cruise the waters of the Antarctic
Peninsula and its adjacent islands, our daily
schedule of landings are dependent upon
weather and ice conditions. There is the
possibility that we may visit a research station
and witness the scientific activities conducted
by the multinational community of scientistsworking there. The expeditionary nature of
our voyage precludes guaranteeing specific
stops; in the past we have visited the locations

below. This l ist serves as a guideline only of
the places you may experience.
Brown Bluff Located on the Antarctic
continent, the volcanic promontory of Brown
Bluff rises 2,450 feet above an ash beach
littered with huge and bizarrely shaped
boulders. Some 20,000 pairs of Adelie, and
hundreds of gentoo penguins, make their
home here. Skuas and pintado petrels nest
near the top of the cliff and kelp gulls f ill
the air with perpetual sound and motion.
Deception Island As we approach
Deception through Neptunes Bellows,
a channel just wide enough for our ship
to navigate, southern fulmars and pintado
petrels soar overhead. Our anchorage is inside
a volcano whose collapsed cone was filled by
rushing seawater.
Lemaire Channel and Pleneau
Island Cruising the beautiful Lemaire
Channel, we keep watch for the humpback
and minke whales frequently spotted here.
This narrow channel is one of the most visually
impressive areas of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Steep mountain peaks jut out of the sea on
both sides, and the waters are often choked
with icebergs and frequented by crabeater seals.A stunning labyrinth of grounded icebergs lies
in the shallow waters west of Pleneau Island,
presenting a superb Zodiac cruising experience.
Crabeater and leopard seals haul out on the
ice, and elephant seals and gentoo penguins
occupy the island itself.
Petermann Island Discovered by
a German expedition in 1873-74 and named
after geographer August Petermann, the island
is home to the worlds southernmost colony of
gentoo penguins. Snow-capped and small at
just a mile long by half a mile wide, it offers
close-up, picture-perfect scenes of penguins
both gentoo and Adelieas well as skuas andblue-eyed shags.
Sunday & Monday, February 13 & 14Drake Passage
During our Drake crossing, we have opportu-
nities to see and photograph wandering and
black-browed albatross, sooty shearwaters and
white-chinned petrels. We keep a lookout for
whales often seen in these waters.Tuesday, February 15Ushuaia, Argentina /
