Here is my story about being an Arctic explorer:

For those still interested, I found a couple more links about this not-well-known place (well, if it was well-known, it wouldn't be much of a challenge):

Les Cartes (maps; you can get a sense of where the tubes are/were, and the isolation of the place)

Photos de l'île Amsterdam (click 'Paysages' for some cliffhangers; one is an ancient lava fall over an escarpment)

Amsterdam Island - Description (click Geology for a geological history, which is pretty simple; click topography for an image map (linked to pictures; search with mouse)

That story was too cool; you'd probably agree.
