Antarctic Adventure (High-fliers)

This is the true tale of the first bid to cross Antarctica without help. No dogs. No rescue planes on standby. No food or equipment dropped.

Will they make it to the South Pole and survive? Text Type: Expository, RecountTheme/Topic: World Connections: Antarctica, Adventure
