Its in the right kind of place for a pingo. Take a look at the peninsula on google earth and there are thousands of sinkhole type formations.

"16 meters? That’s only about 50 feet. Kind of a let-down."
You should try this one. Gaping Gill, North Yorkshire. 322 feet (98m) straight down in a bosun's chair:

The idiot scientist was one of the best examples of a liberal ever.

"the temperature beneath the hole was “higher than usual”.NOW we know where all the missing heat has gone. It's trapped beneath the ice in Siberia!
