IGY RESCUES

This is an interview with Hugh Bennett, Steve DenHartog and Ed Robinson recorded at Paul Dalrymple's home in Port Clyde, Maine in July 2008 by Ed Williams M.D. It includes two first-hand accounts of separate rescues of their colleagues during the International Geophysical Year, 1957-58. The first is a crevasse rescue of Peter Schoeck on the Ross Ice Shelf Traverse and the second is the rescue of Bert Crary following his unexpected ride into Kainan Bay on a calving ice flow at Little America V.
