A little over half way up to the top of Hogback Hill at Marble Point, a dead seal can be found. Roughly 1,800 feet above sea level and seemingly out of place, overlooking the Wilson Piedmont Glacier and McMurdo Sound.
“These centuries-old mummies have been seen up to 41 miles (66 kilometers) inland in the Dry Valleys and 5,900 feet (1,800 meters) above sea level; why the seals roamed so far away from the coast to their death remains a mystery, with potential culprits including viruses and bad weather.”
