Just got done reading "The Lost Men" and am curious and poking around the internet for some additional history. Any resources or relics from this last depot? I assume Macintosh's letter to Shackleton must have been recovered from there at some point if it is in the book?

What an excellent question! I do not know what ever happened to the last depot or if any relics exist. I have just started reading "The Lost Men" and haven't gotten beyond their troubles in Australia. I've done some searching of the internet as well, and haven't been able to find any information. It's possible that you may be able to find information at the Scott Polar Research Institute at Cambridge University: http://www.spri.cam.ac.uk/
I'd love to have you share what you find about the depot.
Thanks for your interest,
