Description
It was his enthusiasm for polar exploration that made him plan and train the New Zealand expedition with the greatest efficiency, so that all his vital tasks were completed ahead of schedule. And then, with the surveying, mapping and geologising well in hand and one more depot that Fuchs had asked for well established and stocked, with the tractor drivers trained in crevasse-crossing and in navigating in white-outs, what else was there left for Hillary to do but lead his train of four men in three farm tractors and their attendant sledges on a "reconnaissance" dash for the Pole?
They all seem to have enjoyed the day to day fight against the elements, responding magnificently to Hillary's undoubted dash and drive and sheer dogged will-power.
