TIL: The so-called "South Pole Station" is at 9300 feet, which I never would have guessed. Though the side effects ascribed to it seemed a bit extreme (routine bloody nose during sleep?).

Also thought it was amusing that there's a gym and sauna installed but one is only allowed a 2 minute shower per week.

The bloody nose seems more related to the extreme dry weather than altitude to me.

Surrounded by frozen water and still only able to spend 2 minutes per week in the shower is still amazing.
