Within a few short months, winter would settle in fully, temperatures dropping toward negative 30 and the

sun disappearing entirely for weeks at a time.

During the blizzards that swept across the region, wind chills could fall to extreme

levels thanks to sustained winds of 60 to 70 miles an hour.

In those conditions, exposed skin freezes within a matter of seconds. Severe hypothermia

follows soon after, then unconsciousness, then death. The 28 men of the endurance were then trapped

in one of the most inhospitable environments on Earth. The conditions were already severe,

and they were only going to get worse, much worse.

But the situation was even more dangerous than that.
