Title: "Scott Polar Expedition Food Depots: A Historical Diagram and the Journey of Surgeon Edward Leicester Atkinson" This evocative photograph presents a fascinating glimpse into the logistical planning of the British Antarctic Expedition (1910-1913), led by the indomitable Captain Robert Falcon Scott, as depicted in this intricate diagram of food depots along the 750-mile (1,126 km) route to the South Pole. The diagram illustrates the strategic placement of these vital supplies, essential for the survival of the expedition team, at key locations along their treacherous journey. The expedition's food depots were meticulously planned and distributed to ensure the team's sustenance throughout their arduous expedition. The diagram reveals the distances between each depot, with the first one situated at Hut Point, the base camp, and the final one at the South Pole. The team's progression from Hut Point to the pole is also indicated, offering a visual representation of the immense challenge they faced.
