Polar Pathways: Robert E. Peary's Arctic Expeditions

The White March- Cache Camp: Best Efforts

 

"Several steep slopes in the ravine and on the plateau above required all the dogs’ and our own best efforts on each of the larger sledges. Two days were consumed in bringing everything up to the Cache Camp, where Matt and Gibson had built a snow igloo, and where we cooked our meals at a fireplace among the rocks of the nunatak close by.” - Robert E. Peary in Northward over the “Great Ice”, published in 1898
