Abstract
This story map walks readers through the routes taken by the British National Antarctic Expedition (1901-1904), commonly referred to as the Discovery Expedition. Led by Captain Robert Falcon Scott, the party spent two winters on Ross Island from which they led many scientific and exploratory excursions. Based on charts created by members of the expedition, this story map outlines the extent of the expedition as they traveled to, from and across the Frozen Continent. Additional media sources are used to help viewers walk in the steps of some of the earliest Antarctic explorers.
