Record #197037:

Captain Scott's last camp, Ross Ice Shelf / Robert Keith Headland.

Title: Captain Scott's last camp, Ross Ice Shelf / Robert Keith Headland.
Author(s): Headland, Robert Keith.
Date: 2011.
In: Polar Record. (2011.), Vol. 47(242) (2011)
Abstract: Estimates trajectory, rate of travel and depth of accumulating ice cover for tent containing bodies of Scott, Wilson and Bowers. Concludes that Scott's last camp on 1910-13 Terra Nova expedition may reach position of current ice front in Ross Sea to east of Cape Crozier around year 2250 buried 100 m deep in ice shelf, but that due to likely calving at ice front, bodies will ultimately be committed to waters of Southern Ocean.
