South Pole Expedition Tracks to 85 Degrees Latitude
A Norwegian led polar party describes wintering in a snow hut on the barrier, depot-building for 60 days, and a spring return. The voyage attains 85 degrees south, noting Fram’s voyage, dog teams, temperatures from minus 59 to minus 60 Celsius, and a climbing route past Axel Helberg’s Glacier toward 15,000-foot peaks and adjacent coast ranges.
