Northward: Peary’s 1908-09 Expedition

Water to the N.E.

  • 11-24-1908 – Evening
  • Robert E. Peary
  • Cape Sheridan, Ellesmere Island, CAN

Still clear! Fresh northwest wind all day.
    Last night for a while, a gale.
    Water to the N.E. Had ships men ripping up the walrus meat forward so I can see how much there is.
    Am very glad to find that there is much more than I had feared.
    Borup still interesting himself + the party with his flashlight pictures.
    Matt completed a 3” broad runner sledge, Wt. 95# [lbs.].
