Happy memories of tracking icebergs as they passed Elephant and Clarence Islands as part of #JointServicesExpedition in 1976/77. This one would have been a cracker to track!pic.twitter.com/OABf5qxz8q
#Iceberg B09F seen by the #Sentinel2 satellite just South of Elephant Island in Antarctica.
This iceberg, covering about 500sq km, is a remnant of the much larger B-9 iceberg, which calved from Antarctica over 30 years ago!

My! You were with Chris Furse...! His 'Elephant Island' book was one of the 1st books I read about Antarctica! I intend to re-read it, now knowing so much more about the place. Still looking for Furse's book on Brabant Island with De Gerlache!

#B09F is indeed a massive tabular#iceberg. I discovered it whilst guiding for@Silversea. Here's a very small section on a pic, I took 27 Dec 2018, with#ClarenceIsland behind. B09F is as big as nearby#ElephantIsland. It travelled from#RossIceShelf to#southshetlandislands.pic.twitter.com/oJuERmlzM5
