The graves of the 3 men who died at Mawson, Robert White (1963), Ken Wilson (1972) and Geoff Cameron (1974) are on West Arm looking across to Mawson. They are very much a part of Mawson - the simple yet elegant white crosses visible against the rock of West Arm whenever you gaze out across the harbour. Phil Law's cairn has been built adjacent to these graves.
