Classic Doc: Chasing Shackleton - Tim Jarvis
Environmental explorer, adventurer, climber, author and documentary filmmaker Tim Jarvis comes in from the cold to talk some Shackleton with Doc. With 13 Antarctic expeditions under his belt, Tim shares some incredible moments from his time on the ice, including his recreation of Ernest Shackleton's voyage from Elephant Island across the Southern Ocean to South Georgia and the subsequent overland trek to Stromness Whaling Station, all while using only the clothing and technology available during Shackleton's voyage. Along the way, the two discuss an unexpected visit from Father Christmas at the South Pole, the best way to serve congealed lard, breaking down the big problems into manageable chunks, pulling 500-pound sleds on the ice, and all the joy that comes with six sailors sharing the same tight quarters on a small boat on the open ocean for two weeks. Use your imagination; I promise it's not enough.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hikertrashradio/support Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
