Proof there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad equipment. (and food)
This guy nailed it. I was reading and scrolled back up to see pictures of the dogs... no dogs. The dude dragged his own sled. I guess the "easy" part was there's no polar bears since he's at the South Pole.

Yea, he pulled a 375# sled over 900 miles. That's pretty bad ass in my book.
