Ep 135: Shackleton, Part 2 — Winter Camping on the Ice Within the Antarctic Circle
Harry and Rafe continue with Bufnagle: the Podcast, Book Club Edition and the discussion of Alfred Lansing's book Endurance, the tail of Earnest Shackleton's ill-fated adventure to the South Pole during 1914, 1915, and 1916.
We take up with Shackleton and his intrepid band of merry men stuck in the ice of the Weddell Sea in February of 1915 and follow their exploits through the Antarctic winter of 1915: training the dogs, dealing with mind-numbing darkness, and suffering the never-ending pressure from the moving ice. As Spring rolls in in late 1915, the Endurance finally concedes to the ice and the men must move out of the protection of the ship and onto the ice to either camp or hike or die.
