Vonna Keller, Antarctic Veteran has spent time at all Australian Antarctic bases, including Macquarie Island from 2005 to 2014.
This podcast covers the years 2005-2008. Vonna relates a few of her amazing experiences, particularly as camp manager while building the first international runway near Casey Base in 2005. The airstrip was capable of handling aircraft as large as the Airbus.
Vonna has driven every manner of Antarctic vehicles, managed large camps as the sole female, witnessed the foiling of illegal poaching of southern waters and surfed icebergs (you read that right). Qualified, experienced, she is the definition of the intrepid adventurer.
