THE LAST GREAT FIRST
The First Full Unsupported Ski Crossing of Antarctica
The Last Great First is the World’s first unsupported coast to coast ski crossing of Antarctica.
Our Explorers, Gareth and Richard will ski 2,600km unsupported for 110 days from coast to coast in Antarctica. They will pull their supplies as they go.
The Expedition will commence in November and finish in February.
The Expedition will support science and medical developments and will celebrate Sir Ernest Shackleton’s life and legacy almost exactly 100 years after his passing.
