Still struggling to the pole in very challenging conditions

A report from Howard this morning, they are 89.5 N 48 E and drift and bad stormy conditions are challenging their final steps to the pole. Howard reports some frostbite on his feet and is hoping for a quick evacuation on arrival to the pole.

Strong winds may delay this.

Stay tuned for further updates!

  3. Praying that the conditions improve and that you can make it to the Pole today Don't know whether that is feasible but it sounds like you need to get there asap. We too will be watching for updates hourly.
    Love Ros
