Capt. Robert Scott's burial site on Antarctica?

Question

I was just looking at Antarctica on Google Earth (or at least trying to look--no images are showing up, just a dark mass, as if the continent hasn't been mapped yet by Google Earth) and was wondering if (at the risk of sounding morbid) there are any sort of GPS coordinates plotting where Antarctic explorer Robert Scott and his fateful comrades are buried on the ice pack. Has their burial site broken off the main glacier and ended up in the ocean yet? (For the record, I'm a huge Roald Amundsen buff, which is why I was wondering this about Robert Scott.)

Answer 1

Not sure if this is the actual burial spot or not.

Hut Point Peninsula (77°46′S, 166°51′E) is a long, narrow land mass from 2 to 3 miles (4.8 km) wide and 15 miles (24 km) long, projecting southwest from the slopes of Mount Erebus on Ross Island.

The Discovery Expedition (1901-04) under Scott built its hut on Hut Point, a small point lying 1 mile (1.6 km) northeast of Cape Armitage, at the south end of the peninsula. Members of the British Antarctic Expedition (1910-13) under Scott, wintering on Cape Evans and often using the hut during their journeys, came to refer to this feature as Hut Point Peninsula.

McMurdo Station (US) and Scott Base (NZ) are Antarctic research stations located on Hut Point Peninsula.

Several features on Hut Point, including the cross marking the grave of George T. Vince and the store hut for the Discovery Expedition, are protected under the Antarctic Treaty. [1]
