Mt. Erebus (active volcano) and Pressure Ridges

We are lucky that we get to see some cool stuff at work and on the way to work. We go most days on Ivan the Terra Bus. We can see Mt. Erebus at work. It is 25 miles due north of us and is about 11,000 feet and is an active volcano. Pressure ridges that occur where the sea ice meets Ross Island are also cool. I took some of these pictures on the bus on the way to work. A fellow meteorologist of mine, Chris, took the closeup picture of Erebus venting.
