Ice Mountain Sled Expedition Ends in Harsh Winter Suffering
A patrol describes a brutal winter trek where a large sled carried a box as high as the crew’s heads. They battled piercing winds, attempted to start fires, and endured frozen hands and feet. Several men, including Bailey and Wanderer, suffered severe frostbite and ultimately lost toes and flesh. After days of travel, they reached safety, but many froze to death along the way.
