GRAPHIC ACCOUNT OF THE TRIP
Captain Amundsen’a Own Narrative of
Hit Attainment of the South
Pole December 14, 17,
1911.
(By Roald Amundsen. Copyright

Hobart, Tasmania, March 8.—At 2
a. in. on the 10th day of February,
1911, we commenced to work our way
toward the south, from that day to
the 11th of April, establishing three
depots, which in all contained a
quantity of provisions of about 3,000
kilos, including 1,100 kilos of seal
meat, were cached in 80 degrees, 700
kilos in 81 degrees and 800 kilos in 82
degrees south latitude.
As no land marks were to be seen
these depots were marked with flags,
seven kilometers on each side in the
easterly and westerly directions.
The ground and the state of the
barrier were of the best and special-
ly well adapted to driying with dogs.
On February 15, we had thus travel-
ed about 100 kilometers. The weight
of the sledges was 300 kilos, and the
numbar of dogs was six for each
sledge. The surface of the barrier
was smooth and flue with no sastrugl.
The crevices were very local and were
found dangerous in only two places.
For the rest long, smooth undla-
tions.
The weather was excellent, calm
or a light breeze. The lowest tem-
perature on these depot trips was
minus 45 Celsius or centigrade, (49
degrees below zero, fahrenheit.) On
the 4th of March, on our return from
the first trip beginning on the 15th
of February, we found out that the
Fram. had already left us. With
pride and delight we heard that her
smart captain had succeeded in
sailing her furthest south and
there hoisting the colors of his coun-
try, a glorious moment, for him and
his comrades, the furthest north and
the furthest south, good old Fram
the highest south latitude attained
was 78 degrees 41 minutes.
Winter on the Ice Barrier.
Before the arrival of winter we
had 6,000 kilos of seal meat in the
depots, enough for ourselves and
110 dogs. Eight dog houses, a com-
bination of tents and snow huts
were built.
Having cared for the dogs the turn
came to use our solid little hut. It
was almost entirely covered with
snow by the middle of April. First
we had to get Jight and air. The
Lux lamp, which had a power 200
standard candles, gave us a bril-
liant light and kept the temperature
up to 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees
Fahrenheit) throughout the winter,
our excellent ventilation system gave
us all the air we wanted.
In direct communication with the
hut and dog houses on the Barrier
were workshops, packing, rooms, cel-
lars for provisions, coal, wood and
oil, a plain bath, a steam bath, and
observatory. Thus we had everything
within doors if the weather should
be too cold and stormy.
The sun left us on the 22nd of
April and did not return until four
months later. The winter was spent
in changing our whole outfit, which
on the depot trips was found to be
too clumsy and solid for the smooth
surface of the Barrier. Besides this,
as much scientific work as possible
was done, and some astonishing
meteorological observations were
taken.
Open Water all Winter.
There was very little snow, and
there was open water close by
throughout the winter. For the same
reason higher temperature had been
expected, but it remained very low.
In five months there were observed
temperatures between minus 50 and
60 degrees Celsius, (58 and 76 de-
grees below zero Fahrenheit) (he
lowest temperature on the 13th of
August, being mlnuB 59 degrees
Celsius. It was then, calm. On the
1st of August the temperature was
minus 58 degrees Celsius, and there
were six meters of wind.
The mean temperature for the year
was minus 26 degrees Celsius. (14.8
below zero fahrenheit.)
I had expected hurricane after hur-
ricane, but I observed only two mode-
rate seorms and many excellent
auroras, in all directions.
The sanitary conditions were of the
best all the winter and when the sun
returned on ihe 24th of August he
met the men sound in mind and body
ready to set about the task that had
to be solved.
Already the day before we had
brought our sledges to the starting
place for our march toward the south.
Only in the beginning of September
did the temperature rise to such an
extent that there was any question of
setting out. •
First 8tart for the Pole.
On the 8th of September eight men.
with seven sledges, ninety dogs and
I provisions for four months started.
The ground was perfect. The tem-
perature was not bad. The next day
it appeared that we had started too
early, as the temperature of the fol-
lowing days fell and was kept steady
between minus 50 and 60 Celsius (58
degrees and 76 degrees) below zero
fahrenheit. Personally we did not
suffer at all from this cold. Our good
furs protected us. But with our dogs
it was a different matter. It could
easily be seen that they shrunk from
day to day, and we understood pretty
soon that they could not stand the
long run to our depot at 80 degrees
south.
We agreed on returning and to wait
for the arrival of spring. The provis-
ions were cached and off w- went for
the hul. With the exception of the
loss of a few dogs and a couple of
frozen heels everything was all right.
Only in the middle of October spring
came in earnest. Seals and birds ap-
peared. The temperature was steady
between 20 and 30 celsius (68 degrees
and 86 degrees fahrenheit).
The original plan that all of us
should go toward the south had been
changed. Five men had to do this
work, while the other three were to
start for the east and visit King Ed-
ward VII land. This last mentioned
trip was not included In our pro-
gram, but owing to the fact that the
English had not reached it, at l*ast
this summer, as was their intention,
we agreed that the best thing to do
was also to make this trip.
On Ocober 20, the southern party
started, five men, four Bledges, fifty-
two dogs, and provisions for four
months, everything in excellent
order.
The Journey to the Pole.
We had made up our minds to take
the flrpt part of the trip as early as
possible in order to give ourselves
and the dogs a rational training, and
on the 23rd we made our depot in 80
degrees south. We went right ahead.
In spite of the dense fog an error
of two to three kilomeeers happened
once in a while, but we were caught
by the ftagmarks, and found these on
our way without difficulty.
Having rested and fed the dogs on
all the seal meat they were able to
eat, we started again on the 26th,
with the temperature steadily between
minus 20 and 30 Celsius (4 degrees
and 22 dgrees belowe zro, fahrenheit).
From the start it was the intention
not to drive more than 30 kilometers
a day, but it appeared that this was
too little for our strong, willing' ani-
mals. At 80 degrees south we began
to build snow cairns of a man’s height,
in order to have marks on our re-
turn trip. On the 31st we reached
the depot at 81 degrees, and stopped
there one day and fed the dogs on as
much pemmican as they wanted.
We reached the depot at 82 degrees
ou the 5th of November, where the
dogs for the last time got all they
wanted to eat. On the 8th, southward
again, with a dally march of 50 kilo-
meters.
In order to light our heavy sledges
we established depots at each degree
of south latitude.
Like a Pleasure Trip.
The trip from 82 to 85 degrees be-
came a pleasure trip, excellent ground,
tine sledging, and an even tempera-
ture. Everything went like a dance.
On the 9th, we sighted South Vic-
toria land and the continuation of the
mountain range which Sir Ernest
Shackelton mentioned in his chart as
running toward the southeast from
the Beardmore glacier, and on the
same day we reached S3 degrees aud
established here depot No. 4. On the
11th we made an Interesting discovery
that the Ross barrier terminated in
a bight toward the southeast at 86
degrees south latitude and 163 degrees
west longitude, formed between the
southeast mountain range running
from South Victoria land and a range
on the opposite side running In a
southwesterly direction, probably a
continuation of King Edward VII
land.
On the 13th we reached 84 degrees
where we established a depot, on the
16th we were at 85 degrees, where
also, we made a depot,
From our winter quarters, “Fram-
helm,’’ 78 degrees 38 minutes south
latitude, we had been marching due
| south. On the 17th of November, at
i 85 degrees, we arrived at a place
: where the land and barrier were con-
j nected. This was done without any
great difficulty. The barrier here
rises in undultations to about 300
I feet. Some few big crevices indicated
the limited boundary.
Here we made our head depot, tak-
ing provisions for sixty days on
; sledges, and leaving thirty days' pro-
' visions on the spot.
The land under which we lay and
which we had to attack looked quite
imposing. The nearest summits along
the barrier had a height from 2,000 to
10,000 feet but several others further
south were 15,000 feet or more.
The next day we began the climb.
The first part of it was an easy task,
light stops and well filled mountain-
sides. It did not take a long time
for our willing dogs worked their way
up. Further up, wo met. with some
small but very steep glaciers. Here
we had to harness twenty dogs to
each sledge and take the four sledges
in two turns. In some places it was
so steep that it was difficult enough
to use our skis.
Some big crevices forced us from
time to time to make detours. The
first day we climbed 2,0,00 feet, the
next day mostly up some small glac-
iers, camping at a height of 4,500 feet
The third day we were obliged to
go down on a mighty glacier, “Axel
Heiberg’s Glacier," which divided the
coast mountains and the mountains
further south.
The next day began the longest part
of our climb. Many detours had to
be made in order to avoid broad
cracks and crevices. These were ap-
parently _ mostly filled up, as the
glaciers In all probability had long
ago stopped moving, but we had to be
very care'ui, never knowing for cer-
tain how thick was the lawer that
covered them.
Our camp that night lay in very
picturesque surroundings at a heighth
of 5,000 feet. The glacier here was
narrowed in between the two 15,000
feet high mountains, the "Fridtjof
Nansen" and the “Don Pedro Christo-
pherson.” From the bottom of the
glacier rose mount "Ole Englstad”—
a big snow cone 13,500 feet high.
The glaciex was very much broken
in this comparatively narrow pass.
The mighty crevices seemed to stop
us from going further, but it was not
so serious as it appeared. Our dogs,
which up to this time had covered s
distance of about 7,000 kilometers, the
last few days very hard work, ran
this day 35 kilometers, the ascent be-
ing 5,600 feet, an almost Incredible
record.
It took us only four days from the
barrier to get up on the vast Inland
plateau. We camped that night ht a
height of 10,600 feet. Here we had
to kill tw„enty-four of our brave com-
panions and keep eighteen, six for
each of our three sledges.
We stopped here four days on ac-
count of bad weather. Tired of this
we set out on the 28th of November.
On the 26th in a furious blizzard and
in a dense snow drift absolutely noth-
ing was to be seen, but we felt that
contrary to expectations we were go-
ing fast down hill. The hypsometer
gave us a fall of 800 feet.
The next day was Bimilar. The
weather cleared a little at dinner
time and exposed to our view a mighty
mountain range to the’ east, and not
far off, only for a moment, and then
it disappeared In the dense snow-
drift On the 29th it calmed down
and the sun shone, though it was not
the only pleasant surprise he gave.
In our course stretched a big glacier
running toward the Bouth. At its
eastern end was the mountain range
going in a southeasterly direction. Of
the western part of it no view was to
be had, it being hidden In 4he dense
fog. At the foot of this glacier, the
"Devil’s Glacier,” a depot for six days
was established, at 86.21 degrees
south latitude. The hypsometer in-
dicated 8,000 feet above sea level.
On November 30 we began to climb
the glacier. The lower part of it was
very much broken and dangerous.
Moreover, the snow bridges very often
burst. From our camp that night we
had a splendid view over the mountain
to the east. There was “Helmer Han-
sen’s Summit,” the most remarkable
of them all. It was 12,000 feet high
and covered with such broken glaciers
that in all probabilities no foothold
was to be found. “Oscar Wlstings,"
“Sverre Hassels," and "Olav Hjan-
lands” mountains also lay here,
beautifully illuminated in the rays of
the bright sun.
In the distance, and only alternate-
ly to be viewed in the fog, appeared
from time to time "Mount Nielsen,”
with its summits and peaks about
15,000 feet high.
We only saw the nearest surround-
ings. It took us three days to sur-
mount the Devil's glacier, always in
misty weather.
On the 1st of December we left
this broken glacier, with holes and
crevices without number, with its
height of 9,100 feet. Before us. look-
ing in the mist and snowdrift, like a
frozen sea, appeared a light, sloping
ice plateau filled with small hum-
mocks.
The walk over this frozen sea was
not pleasant. The ground under us
was quite hollow, and it sounded as
though we were walking on the bot-
toms of empty barrels. As it was, a
man fell through, then a couple of
dogs. We could not use our skis on
this polished Ice. Sledges had the
best of it.
The place got the name the "Devil’s
Dancing Room.'* This part of our
march was the most unpleasant. On
| December 6 we got our greatest height,
according to the hypsometer and ane-
roid—10,750 feet at 87 degrees 40
] minutes south.
On December 8 we came out of the
I bad weather. Once again the sun
smiled down on us. Once again we
could get an observation. Dead
reckoning and observation were ex-
actly alike, 88 degrees, 88 minutes,
16.6 seconds south.
Before us lay an absolutely plain
plateau, only here and there marked
with a tiny sastrugl.
In the afternoon we pasaed 88 de-
grees 23 minutes. Ohaokeleon’a fur
thereat south was 88 degrees, 23
minutes.) We camped and establish-
ed our last depot, depot No. 10. From
80 degrees 25 minutes the plateau be-
gan to slope down very gently and
smoothly toward the other side.
On the 9th of December we reached
88 degrees 39 minutes, on December
10, 88 degrees 56 minutes, December
11, 89 degrees 15 minutes, December
12, 89 degrees 30 minutes, Decern oer
13, 89 degrees 45 minutes.
Up to this time the ODservatlons
and dead reckoning agreed remarkably
well, and we made out that we cught
to be at the pole on December 14 in
the afternoon.
That day was a beautiful one, a
light breeze from southeast, the tem-
perature minus 23 celsius (9.4 degrees
below zero, fahrenheit), and the
ground and sledging were perfect.
The day went along as usual, and
at 3 p. m. we made a halt.
According to our reckoning we had
reached our destination. All of us gath-
ered around the colors, a beautiful silk
flag, all hands taking hold of it
and planting it.
The vast plateau on which the pole
is standing got the name of the “King
Haakon VII Plateau.” It is a va«t(
plain, alike in all directions, mile after
mile during the night we circled
around the camp.
In the fine weather we spent the
following day taking a series of ob-
servations from 6 a. m. to 7 p. m.
The result gavd us 89 degrees 65
minutes.
In order to observe the pole as close
as possible we traveled as near south
as possible, the remaining 9 kilo-
meters.
On December 16 there we camped.
It was an excellent opportunity.
There was a brllliane sun. Four of
us took observations every hour of
the day’s twenty-four hours. The
exact result will he the matter of a
professional private report.
This much is certain, that we ob-
served the pole as close as it is in
human power to do it with the instru-
ments we had, a sextant and artificial
horizon.
On December 17 everything was In
order on the spot.
We fastened to the ground a little
tent we had brought along, a Norwe-
gian flag and the Fram pendant on
the top of It.
The Norwegian home at the South
pole was called “Polheim."
The distance from our winter quar-
ters to the pole was about 1,400 kilo-
meters. The average march a day
was 25 kilometers.
We started on the return trip on
the 17th of December. Unusually
favorable weather made our way
home considerably easier than the
journey to the pole. We arrived at
our winter quarters, “Framheim” on
the 25th of January, 1912, with two
sledges and 11 dogs, all well.
The daily average speed on the re-
turn trip was 36 kilometers, the low-
est temperature was minus 31 Celsius,
(23.8 degrees below zero Fahrenheit.)
The highest minus 5 celsius, (23 de-
grees above zero Fahrenheit).
Among the results are the determi-
nation of the extent and character
of the Ross Barrier, and the dis-
covery of the connection of South
Victoria land and probably King Ed-
ward VII land, with their continua-
tion in the mighty mountains running
toward the southeast which were ob-
served as far as 88 degrees south,
but which in all probability continue
across the antarctic continent.
The entire length of the newly dis-
covered mountains is about 850 kilo-
melers. They have been named
“Queen Maud's Range.”
The expedition to King Edward VII
land under the command of Lieut.
Prestud has given excellent -results.
Scott's discoveries have been con-
firmed, and the survey of the bay of
Whales and of the Barrier Dome by
the Prestud party are of great inter-
est.
A good geological collection from
King Edward VII and South Victoria
land is being brought home.
The Fram arrived at the Bay of
Whales on the ninth of January. She
had been delayed by the “roaring
forties’’ on account of the easterly
winds.
On January 16th the Japanese ex-
pedition arrived at the Bay of
Whales and landed on the Harrier
near our winter quarters. We left
the Bay of Whales on January 30th.
It was a long voyage with contrary
winds. All are well.

“‘Whose make is it?’ asked the
salesman, frowning.
” ‘God’s make,’ the storekeeper re-
