Summary The start of the Antarctic crossing of Arved Fuchs and Reinhold Messner with stopover South Pole is difficult. First, the flight connection between Punta Arenas in South America and the Antarctic base camp with an ancient aircraft not works until the third attempt due to the weather. As in Patriot Hills even the smaller transport plane to the starting point of the expedition is not available, Reinhold Messner gets angry and demands the prepayment back. The route of the two adventurers must be reorganized and shortened by 600 kilometers. Finally, they start on skis with 80 kilograms of sledges per man in the direction of the Thiel Mountains through inadequately explored territory.
