This is pretty nuts: even going fairly hungry, he will start with at least 150 lbs of food, so he's probably starting with 200-225 lbs of stuff, climbing from near sea level to the 10,000-ft Antarctic plateau. It's also pretty dumb: > Henry will make the first solo descent of the Shackleton Glacier. While going unroped on a glacier can be far safer than is often preached, it's not something to brag about. Falling into a crevasse is much less predictable than falling off a cliff, so this guy "free soloing" a hairy glacier is much more like Russian Roulette than e.g. Alex Honnold free soloing Half Dome.
