Lockheed LC-130
LC-130 "Ski's Down"
16,000+ HP Snow Mobile.  This is the only way to deliver supplies and Equipment to the South Pole.
"Second Biggest Sled I ever saw"
Now you can stop wondering how airplanes get loaded without all the normal ramp equipment.  I put in a suggestion to ride 400 people on this baby Christmas Day.  No one took it seriously?
Main Ski
The ramp on Williams Field is nicely groomed by the Heavy Equipment Folks.  "Willie" Field as we say, is named after a Navy Heavy Equipment Operator who broke through the ice on his Cat and was lost to the Sea.
Unfiltered Brightness
Almost looks Heavenly with this unfiltered shot.  Notice the skis are up and we don't sink.  The ramp is packed snow.
