The bow of Endurance is prepped at Millwall Docks. The Ships of the Expedition. The Endurance, the ship which will take the Trans-continental party to the Weddell Sea, and will afterwards explore along an unknown coast-line, is a new vessel, specially constructed for Polar work under the supervision of a committee of Polar explorers. The Aurora, the ship which will take out the Ross Sea party, has been bought from Dr. Mawson. She is similar in all respects to the Terra Nova, of Captain Scott’s last Expedition. South: The Illustrated Story of Shackleton's Last Expedition 1914-1917 How the Continent will be crossed. The Trans-continental party will be led by Sir Ernest Shackleton, and will consist of six men. It will take 100 dogs with sledges, and two motorsledges with aerial propellers. The equipment will embody everything that the experience of the leader and his expert advisers can suggest. Into The Weddell Sea New Land Winter Months Loss Of The Endurance Ocean Camp The March Between Patience Camp Escape From The Ice Loss Of The Endurance At midnight I was pacing the ice, listening to the grinding floe and to the groans and crashes that told of the death-agony of the Endurance, when I noticed suddenly a crack running across our floe right through the camp. The alarm-whistle brought all hands tumbling out, and we moved the tents and stores lying on what was now the smaller portion of the floe to the larger portion. Nothing more could be done at that moment, and the men turned in again; but there was little sleep. Each time I came to the end of my beat on the floe I could just see in the darkness the uprearing piles of pressure-ice, which toppled over and narrowed still further the little floating island we occupied. Hurley’s photos of the heeled-over Endurance, 'in her unusual position'.
