“There are two kinds of penguins in the Antarctic, the white ones coming towards you and the black ones going away from you.”-Anonymous
Antarctica’s penguin highway is one of nature’s great two-lane, gridlocked non-stop traffic rush hours. Unfortunately, this incredible sight is not readily accessible. Icy penguin trails curve, meander, detour, then disconnect through treacherous terrain following a path frequently obscured by snow or cloud cover.
