Polar Update: 40 Days and 40 Nights On The Ice!

I haven't posted an update on the Polar Teams in a few days. There are fewer and fewer teams out there these days. Several have already reached their goals, like Hannah McKeand, the Kiwis, and Team Polar Quest. Ray and Jenny have completed their polar quest, and Ray has now moved on to Vinson.

But there are still several groups out on the ice, and they've had to endure a few days of brutal winds and cold. But Team n2i are still working their way towards the Pole of Inaccessibility, after spending more than 40 days and nights on the Ice. Solo skiier James Wilton-Davies got caught in the high winds, and later fog, and found himself camping on crevasse field. Scary!
