January 1912. Dying inch by inch, Robert Falcon Scott and his team 
crawled back from the South Pole through the most hostile conditions on 
earth. Eleven miles from their depot they finally perished. In the 93 
years since, no one has ever walked to the South Pole and back. Many 
experts still consider it impossible.

In October 2006, we will attempt to prove them wrong. Setting out from 
Berkner Island, on the edge of Antarctica, we will manhaul 400lb sledges 
across 1,800 miles of the most hostile terrain on earth, to the Pole and 
back.

SOUTH is the four-month trek, the first ever South Pole round trip on 
foot. We will have no outside assistance, no air resupplies and will ski 
every mile under our own motive power.
