Back on board after a superb 3-day ascent and ski descent of Mt Bridgman, south of the Antarctic Circle on Liard Island. Pretty certain this hasn't been climbed before.
Day 1 - drop-off on the west coast of Liard Island and a traverse above ice cliffs to reach the mountain and set up camp.

One of the highlights of last season - a ski descent from the summit of Mt Francais, the highest mountain in Antarctica north of the Antarctic Circle. Over 2000 vertical metres of perfect corn snow!

Actually, I asked Florian to send the drone up so we could find our way round some heavy pack ice, which he did under sufferance, and lo and behold he snapped an award winning photo!

A drone photo of crabeater seals resting on an ice float is overall winner in a nature photography competition.

LIMITATIONS ARE PERCEPTIONS!

It is still difficult to comprehend that we actually did it. Finishing this crazy mission, considering everything we had to go through to get here. It feels like nothing has gone according to plan during this project. Yet the most important thing did. Completing the first-ever Ironman distance triathlon in Antarctica, the Iceman.

The purpose of this project has been to show that limitations are perceptions, imposed by ourselves, relatives, or society at large, of what we can achieve. That's a fact. In this fast-paced, digital, brutal reality, we are too focused on seeking other people’s advice and acceptance, making us forget the most important thing of all. Listening to ourselves. Believing in ourselves. Much, much more than anybody else ever will. While others might not see our full potential. We must believe in our extraordinary potential and chase it. It’s ours to claim. No one else.

This is what I wanted to show with the Iceman. That there are no limits, except the ones we set for ourselves and others. That even the ordinary person can achieve the extraordinary through passion, extreme dedication, and an immense belief in yourself (and in my case frozen toes).

I wanted to inspire you, who similar to myself have listened to everyone else and been making up limitations. To dare pursue your craziest dreams and believe in yourself. I believe we all have our own “Iceman” and if I can achieve mine, you can achieve yours. No matter what that dream is.

By realizing your extraordinary potential, those “impossible” ideas and dreams of yours are not that crazy after all. We are capable of so much more than our minds let us believe. And we all possess the power within. It's just about taking one small step at a time.

This was a big step, but only the beginning.

A big increase in blue whale sightings around South Georgia over the 19/20 season: https://www.bas.ac.uk/media-post/return-of-the-whales-to-south-georgia/

A team led by British Antarctic Survey has just returned from the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, as the last of three expeditions to investigate the recovery of whales a century after they were heavily exploited. After 30 years of protection large numbers of whales appear to be returning to....
