27 ottob 1915 anni - Abandoning the ship

Descrizione:

On October 23, 1915, the packed ice closed and pressed the Endurance. With much pressure, the craft experienced its first impairment. Its stern post started twisting, eventually breaking down and springing a leak in the ship. By the 281st day of getting stuck in the frozen sea, the Endurance drifted at least 1186 miles with the packed ice. Since Shackleton didn't see any possibility of breaking free from the ice, he ordered the crews to lower the boats, gear, valuable items, and sleds onto the frozen sea. The Endurance ultimately broke and sank to the Wedeel ocean on November 21, 1915. The 27 men set up tents within 100 miles of the ship but were eventually challenged by a crevasse and forced to move.
