1 Antarctica Carved by ice, forged in fire
A pioneer has an unspoken responsibility to bring back something of value from one’s travels — a map, a unique discovery, or specialist knowledge that contribute to mankind’s understanding of our planet — but therein lies a dilemma: if one finds paradise, should one reveal its secrets to one’s fellow man? It is not an easy choice; when one discovers a place of beauty, one becomes responsible, in many ways, for its future. Wally Herbert, The Polar World
