Dear Captain Scott, as you probably are the first to reach this area after us, I will kindly ask you to forward this letter to King Haakon VII. If you can use any of the articles in the tent, please do not hesitate to do so. The sledge left outside may be of some use to you. With kind regard, I wish you a safe return.
Yours,
Ronald Amundsen
They stayed long enough to take sights, plant the Union Jack and take some photographs. That night, Scott wrote in his diary: “Great God! This is an awful place.” One wonders if Scott would have made the same diary entry if he had beaten Amundsen to the Pole. Of the group, PO Taff Evans was the most crushed. He had hoped being first to Pole would bring him promotion and the wealth that would surely follow. Oates did it for the glory of the regiment. Wilson was more pragmatic and wrote: “He has beaten us in so far as he made a race out of it. We have done what we came for all the same and as our programme was made out. They took some sights to confirm they actually were at geographic South Pole and turned north for the 900 mile journey back to Cape Evans. ~ Page 230
