The next day he will make his way back to the base camp in Teplitz Bay on June 23 after traveling 607 miles in 95 round-trip days. The August 18 will return.
The expedition began with the departure of the Stella Polare ship (formerly Jason, a Norwegian whaler bought by Prince Luigi Amedeo of Savoy Duca degli Abruzzi; sold the 13 April 1911 to the municipality of Rome) on 1 July of the 1899 from Cristinia in the Oslo fjord. The blockage of the ship in the ice causes the expedition to continue on foot divided into three teams. Unfortunately, one of these, perhaps due to loss, will never come back, leaving in the ice of the north pole: the TV Francesco QUERINI, the Valdostan guide OLLIER and the 1 ° Norwegian machinist STOKKEN.
