Their 1,000-mile journey began on the icy shores of Hercules Inlet in West Antarctica. With heavy sleds laden with food, fuel, and other essential supplies, Ann and Liv set out into the vast expanse of white. Day after day, they skied across windswept glaciers, treacherous ice ridges, and towering mountains.
The conditions were unforgiving. Temperatures plunged to bone-chilling lows, and relentless winds threatened to shatter their sleds. But Ann and Liv pressed on, their determination undeterred by the challenges they faced.
Along the way, they encountered stunning landscapes that took their breath away. They marveled at the ethereal beauty of icebergs floating like celestial palaces, and witnessed the majestic dance of penguins in their natural habitat.
