See Roll Cage Mary & Vince's Cross at Hut Point, McMurdo Station, Antarctica

Several features on Hut Point, including the cross memorial for George Vince and the store hut for the Scott expeditions, are protected under the Antarctic Treaty. Both the cross (HSM 19) and the hut (HSM 18) have been designated Historic Sites or Monuments, following proposals by New Zealand and the United Kingdom to the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting. Roll Cage Mary, or as it is officially called, Our Lady of the Snows is an icon of sorts rises above McMurdo Station, on Hut Point, overlooking Winter Quarters Bay. It's a memorial dedicated to Richard T. Williams who died in 1956 when his D8 bulldozer broke through the ice.
