I’m very impressed by the quality of the buildings there in this video. These don’t look prefab like I would expect, but thickly built bunker-like structures. I can’t even fathom how they could build something so solid in a place like that…

[@Anatidaephobe]

@@bladerj Wow, Ok. Well thanks for your keen insight, but I was not referring to building in a Winter Condition 1 weather event, lol. I guess I should have clarified as I know there are many 17 year olds with permanent bong brain that might not catch your humor and take you seriously. So to elaborate, I was actually talking about the massive logistics, supply, and coordination it would take to erect such solid structures in a very remote and challenging place (even in Summer weather conditions can potentially change within hours). You’d have to bring in heavy machinery, builders, supplies, set up worker housing, dig water/sewage lines, erect electrical stations, set concrete foundations, etc. and all during windows of clear weather. As someone with building experience, I was merely surprised at the quality of the structures in such a hostile place. That’s all I meant to say. Thanks for your comment!

[@OscarLT321]

The weather isn't like this video all the time. You have calm weather as well. Still most machinery cannot function in even those summer temperatures, so they probably needed special machinery.

Trust me, you don't. Once had to walk 50 mts in white wind up in the Andes, visibility was maybe half a meter so you are blind, the wind is 100% deafening so no help there either and it's also trying to knock you down which is rather easy to happen because the noise also affects your balance which is already precarious thanks to the snow and slanted ground and this place looks like that minus the slant but way colder.
