True to its other name, white continent, it's truly as white as snow. Antarctica situated in the southernmost pole, is a vast continent in far south. Basically the continent is characterized by ice formations as it has 98% area covered with snow and ice. The surface has an ice sheet with an average thickness of 2450m and covers a wide area for about 15.89kmÃ'² but changes depending on the climate or season. During the winter season, the size of Antarctica doubles as the surrounding sea water is as well frozen. The thickest ice is found in Wilkes Land with a depth of 15, 669 feet.
