Training for the South Pole in 1956 on Tasman Glacier

This is a brilliant historical movie on Ed Hillary and his Trans Antarctic Expedition training the huskies on the Tasman Glacier and testing equiment under extreme conditions in 1956.

When the dogs were required by the Antarctic Treaty, to leave Antarctica, I wrote an article on the Scott Base huskies.This is the article.
