    Wikipedia has this to say about the Crocker Land Expedition: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crocker_Land_Expedition, which was led by Donald Macmillan: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Baxter_MacMillan

    I love how the supplies were run down the dock on rail trucks. There's a delivery horse+buggy for Sozodont, a mouth wash. Wonder how long the members of the expedition were worried about their breath. The links @amphalon provided describe just how treachorous the trip was. They seem to have been a bit fanciful in their choice of supplies. Anyone know why the flag atop the center mast says "DIIN"?
  • Rob Ketcherside said:
    Compare the photo to one taken of the construction of the Battleship New York. The building on the right of both photos is the same. I guess that in this photo, we are looking across at the construction site of the New York? (a year after the New York was completed)

    Flag atop the center mast says "Diana," the name of the ship.

    Woops, you're right!
