Default Cape Horn

This has got to be one of the loneliest places- on an island with nothing nearby for many miles at the very tip of South America.


Here is Cape Horn itself


I like this one best...the other side of Cape Horn...the rocks and islands look more interesting.

Wow, quite amazing Jack. Can't imagine being there surrounded by nothing for such a large distance. Fascinating stuff though.
