I ADVENTURES
South!Shackleton's tegendary Antarctic expeditionIn August 1914 the British imperial trans-Antarctic expedition,led by the explorer Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton, set sail from EnglandontheEndurance vith the objective of crossing Antarctica from theVeddell Sea to tbe Ross Sea via the South Pole. However, in January1915, before reaching Antarctica the Endurazce became trapped inpack ice in the \(eddell Sea. The ship remained stuck in the driftingice for ten months before it was crushed and sank, Shackleton and hiscrew of27 men abandoned the ship and started to march across the icetorvards open l'ater, dragging three lifeboats behind them. They livedon the floating ice for almost six months. The group then embarkedon a trcacherous iourney for the South Shggland Islands*, sailing sevendays from ice floe to ice floe before reaching uninhabited ElephantIsland. Leaving allbut five ofhis crew on Elephant Island, Shackletonset off in one of the boats, the seven metreJames Caird,to seekhelp.His target vas a whaling station on the island of South Georgian, 1,300km across the open South Atlantic Ocean, the roughest ocean on Earth.The men had to withstand wind forces of 120 kilometres per hour andwaves that were more than 18 metres high. After 16 exhausting daysthe six men reached South Georgia, accomplishing one of the greatestfeats of navigation in history. They had landed on the opposite side ofthe island from the whaling station, however Shackleton and two ofhis men then hiked for 16 hours straight, completing rhe first crossingof South Georgia's mountainous interior, to reach help at the whalingstation. After three unsuccessful attempts over the next four months,Shackleton rescued his men stranded at Elephant Island on 10'hAugust1916, in a rugboat lent to him by the government of Chile. In the end,not a single member of the Endutaxce expedition was lost. The story ofEnduance andher crew has become a legendary tribute to leadershipand perseverance in polar and world exploration.
