The “Terra Nova” proved unable to reach the party on Jan. 15 as agreed and on Feb. 5 the group had begun a southward trek until rescued from the ice when spotted by the ship on Feb. 18. Taylor had also been a member of Shackleton’s 1907-09 expedition during which he had led the first ascent of Mount Erebus and reached the South Magnetic Pole. Photo. (Image1)
