Outpost at the Edge
Heard Island is one of the Earth's most pristine and isolated natural
wilderness and one of the few places on the planet completely free
from any human introduced species. Its remote, inhospitable,
and almost as far from civilization as possible. This might
explain why it has been twice occupied and twice abandoned.
Originally released for viewing to
the general public on broadcast television, this 1998 documentary
traces the early nineteenth century American sealing history through the
Australian occupation in the 1950's, and finally to the famous 1997 DXpedition.
