South Pole Traverse arrived at Pole the other day. The drove all the way from McMurdo dragging much needed fuel to power South Pole. It takes them about a month to make the drive. They drag not only their fuel but also their living quarters with them. Imagine spending an entire month 12 hours a day at 3-4 mph. With nothing but flat snow in all directions for most of the trip. That is their life. Now they offload all the extra fuel but what they need to get home and refuel and do it again. We will have 3 traverses this year. The second traverse team has already left McMurdo.
