Going south

In October the Brits Ben Saunders and Tony Haile are going to try to walk to the South Pole and back again.

Since January 1912 when Robert Falcon Scott and his team died on the return leg of their fateful expedition, no one has ever walked to the South Pole and back. In fact many experts still consider it impossible.

So it looks like they are in for a real challenge. Best of luck guys! Also check out their amazing photos from a training expedition in 2005. Greenland looks beautiful, but very cold. Brr!
