Clip description
Explorer Douglas Mawson built huts in the Antarctic in 1911. In 1998 a team of restorers has travelled south to save the heritage site. After clearing the ice from the hut, the team are preserving the building and restoring the roof in the short Antarctic summer. Even at the 'best’ time of year, blizzards and winds of up to 150 kilometres per hour hamper the work.
