Day 50 to the Southpole

  • Jan 3
  • 1 min read

New day, new opportunities! We jumped on our skis and set off with a plan to ski for 10 hours. We’ve extended our days in a way that tricks us a bit — we now do 8 sessions of 75 minutes each.


The weather was a bit of everything today: whiteout, sunshine, good visibility, poor visibility, wind from the east and then from the north.

But we’re up on the polar plateau now, so it’s flat — and that means we don’t really need to see where we’re going. As long as we follow the compass, we’ll get there.

During the moments when the sun came out, Emma got to see the plateau — it’s an incredible sight! And impossible to describe; it has to be experienced.


The result of today’s effort was over 30 km! Once again, we’re very pleased with our own effort!

Have a great day back home!
