A dog-sledge at rest, with 'Endurance' (1912) in the background
A view across the broken ice floes towards 'Endurance' (1912), a wooden auxiliary discovery barquentine, in the far background. In the foreground is the dog-sledge Hurley was using that day to move equipment when taking photographs. The seven dogs are lying on the ground with one of the crew standing next to the sledge.
