VOYAGES OF THE TERRA NOVA 
By Commanders E. R. G. R. Evans and 
H. L. L. Pennell 
First Voyage 
To connect the thread of the story it is as well to run briefly- 
over what occurred before Campbell landed at Cape Adare. 
On January 28, 191 1, Captain Scott and the southern 
depot laying party having left, the ship proceeded for King 
Edward's Land with Lieutenant Campbell and his party 
on board. Ice preventing her from getting beyond Cape 
Colbeck, Campbell ran into the Bay of Whales, intending to 
land there ; but finding Captain Amundsen had selected 
this site and built his hut here, he proceeded to the opposite 
extreme of Ross Sea to try and land on the north coast of 
South Victoria Land as far to the west as the ship could get. 
No landing place, however, could be found on this coast at 
all except at Cape Adare, Robertson Bay, where there is 
a moraine on which Borchgrevink wintered in 1898. There 
being no alternative he decided to build his hut here. 
During the i8th and T9th the work of landing the 
stores for Campbell's party was carried out as rapidly as 
Feb. is and P*=*ss^ble, a dead flat calm lasting the whole 
19, 1911. time. Heavy pack ice, setting round the ship, 
Cape Adare. 
prevented all communication with the shore 
between i and 2 p.m. on the iSth ; and at 4 p.m. on the
