For those not subscribed to Cryolist, there is a nice and growing collection of photos and comments at http://gordonhamilton.tumblr.com/ And I apologize for misspelling Gordon's last name in my original message. My middle name is Hamilton, so you'd think I'd be able to type it better.... Best wishes to all, Bruce 2016-10-23, 15:48: Bruce RAUP wrote:

Dear GLIMS community,

I learned yesterday that Gordon Hamilton, a long-time valuable member of the GLIMS community and wonderful guy, was killed when he fell into a crevasse while riding a snowmobile on the McMurdo Ice Shelf. I'm sure all who knew him are deeply saddened by this tragedy.
