Abstract

A section of the book "Polar Regions: Surviving in Antarctica" is presented. It provides information on the geography of Antarctica. Antarctica is more than 9,000 feet above sea level so it is considered as the highest continent on Earth. Ice sheets and glaciers cover the surface of the continent. In the first three weeks of their journey, polar explorers Ann Bancroft and Liv Arnesen already climbed more than 10,000 feet.
