Equipment discarded nearly 90 years ago has been found by scientists

The relentless search was like finding a needle in a haystack for the team involved. During those 85 years, the glaciers covering the mountain were able to move and also change their shape to some extent. What the team knew was that the equipment had been left behind in the remote Walsh Glacier. Through comparisons between images from then and now, and also accounting for the glacier’s rate of movement, scientists have been able to pinpoint exactly where.

Dora Mederzica, from the University of Ottawa, was responsible for the calculations. According to her, the Walsh glacier was showing some different movements, as there were peaks of these movements for a year or two in every decade. This problem made searches very difficult, but nevertheless, the equipment was found about 5 kilometers less than expected, a total of 22 kilometers from where its owner had discarded it.

Among the equipment found was a camera in aerial photography Fairchild F-8 and two camcorders from that era that still have movies in them. The explorers’ idea is to uncover it in order to get unprecedented pictures of the glacier and better understand the process of its movement over all these years.
