Discovery
's
route along the Victoria
Land Coast in 1902 is
illustrated as a solid line
in this map published by
Armitage, the second in
command, to accompany
his account of the expedi-
tion. Note the landing at
Cape Adare, the track into
Wood Bay and out around
the Drygalski Ice Tongue
(unlabeled), and the track
into Granite Harbour (at
3977)—all accomplished
before Armitage sailed
deep into McMurdo
Sound for winter quarters
near Cape Armitage. The
x-marked line shows the
return route of
Discovery
in 1904.
