Lieutenant Robert E. Peary reached North Sydney aboard the Windward from the frozen north. He admits not finding the north pole on his four year expedition but claims important discoveries. He believes the pole can be reached from Franz Josef Land or Grant Land if winter quarters are set far north. His most northerly latitude reached was 84 degrees 17 minutes northwest of Cape Hecla. He would winter as readily at Cape Hecla as at Sabine or Ft. Portland.
