| The Impossible First: From Fire to Ice -- Crossing Antarctica Alone by Colin O'BradyAmerican adventurer Colin O'Brady, who suffered severe burns to his legs years ago, set out to cross the Antarctic alone and unassisted for the first time on record, just as a British man was attempting the same thing. O'Brady's path was on a marked ice road for the last third of the trip and many members of the polar exploration community, including Jon Krakauer, say that doesn't qualify as unassisted; O'Brady acknowledges his route, but stands by his claim. |
