Army ski expedition hoists tricolour at South Pole

The Indian Army on Saturday achieved another adventure feat when its skiing expedition to Antarctica reached the geographic South Pole and marked it by observing the 63rd Army Day.

"The expedition team led by Colonel Anand Swaroop and seven other soldiers after successfully traversing the long distance of the Antarctic region finally reached its destination of the geographic South Pole and observed the Army Day there," an army spokesperson said.

This was the first ever coast to pole skiing expedition to the South Pole, covering a distance of 1,170 km. This journey also marked 100 years of the first expedition taken out by Roald Amundsen.
