Welcome to all OAE's

Old Antarctic Explorer. Someone who's been around in Antarctica for a while, several summers, or at least a Winter, the more the better. Wintering at the south polar station confers automatic OAE status. - American

Some purists maintain that it should only apply to those who have wintered on such a base - no distinction is drawn here and all are welcome.

Privacy - Your email address and any other details will not be passed on to any third party or sold as part of a mailing list - cross my heart and hope for an enforced winter. You may occasionally (max. bi-monthly) receive an email containing advertising from Cool Antarctica, this helps to pay for the hosting fees to keep this site running - (actually I've never gotten around to this)
