Admiral Byrd’s Antarctic Expedition: Journey to the Ice Barrier
4 min History & how-to
Southward Ho, the start of one of Admiral Byrd's six expeditions.
Later, Byrd charts the course as the ship, her masts outlined against a scarred ice wall, nears the end of a fourteen-thousand mile journey.
The sea is strewn with loose, broken ice, but the sturdy ship crunches steadily on to her improvised berth against the ice barrier.
We pushed on right up to the ice barrier.
At length we sighted that great natural phenomenon, the ice barrier.
Therefore, whether we liked it or not, we had to go alongside the great barrier.
Even for the sailor for whom the sea is an old story, there is adventure in the oceans at the end of the world.
Some of us may answer this call to adventure and journey with Admiral Byrd back to the poles, truly the ends of the Earth.
