VK0EK – Heard Island

 

“Heard Island could well have been conceived by Jules Verne. It’s so remote that only a few hundred people have actually seen it. Fewer still have set foot there. Yet it is a storybook island. To get there, you have to sail across some of the wildest and most dangerous seas on Earth, across the Roaring Forties and into the Furious Fifties. Seas up to 50-ft. high are part of the experience; it’s not for the faint-hearted. The best bet is allocate two months for the journey. You’d better take a helicopter—landing on Heard Island through the surf could be life-threatening. Take a camera, and backup plans.”
