Abstract This dataset contains depth to refusal (DTR) measurements from the McMurdo Dry Valleys, collected via T-bar probing and soil excavations between 2006 and 2025. DTR measurements were made opportunistically over several projects, and were collected from Taylor, Wright, Garwood, and Beacon Valleys.
