One question so far and this may be a dumb one but when the first persons to reach the exact spot of the South Pole they were in this Vast Vast wilderness with nothing but the same view as far as the eye could see in all directions how or what told them this is the exact spot of the pole and we plant our flag here?

Thanks and I hope this thread lives on for another 2000 posts!!

They used sextants to locate their position; just like at sea. And thank you for your kind comments.

Just got the book, broke out the Explorer II for the proper reading attire. Looking forward to the read after finally making it thru the whole thread.

Just came across this thread and let me say what an amazing story! Just bought your book.

sinkholeninja · 2 November 2022, 09:29 PM

This is why I love TRF...stumbled upon this thread a couple of days ago and went thorough all the posts in a few hours. Wow...Steve, you're a legend mate! Your life's journey exemplifies the "meaning and purpose" that we all search for. Thank you for sharing it with us. It's truly inspirational. Hope you're doing well.

gold&black · 2 November 2022, 10:03 PM

Wow, what an interesting thread! Will need to get a copy of your book Steve!

IronWatch · 3 November 2022, 10:40 PM

I’ve gone through this thread many years ago, bought your book awhile back and only just now was ready to read it cover to cover. Came back to re-read this thread again with the timeline of the book in my mind.

Thank you Steve for sharing yourself and what the human condition is capable of experiencing and enduring. I think even you could humbly accept at this point you’ve reached well past the one person you hoped to impact. I know I’ll keep the story of your life’s journey close to me.
