  • Landscape with King Penguins, South Georgia Island. In 2017 Shackelton made his astounding 800 mile sail from antartica to south georgia, 17 days in a small ship’s boat across the most treacherous seas on the planet, to find help for his stranded crew. When he arrived on South Georgia he had to cross the mountain range behind the penguins in order to reach the whaling station not far from this spot. He did so without food, water or equipment, the journey across the mountains taking 36 hours of non-stop climbing.
