deliberately limited area Axel Helberg Island 2000 miles north of Winnipeg and 600 miles from the North Pole was picked because nobody had ever been there before JUMBLE 0F MOUNTAINS The coast had been visited and mapped and the island photo graphed from high altitudes But until 1953 when Dr Jacobson flew in with reconnaissance party no man had set foot in the interior with its sweeping gla ciers and tortured jumble of mountains The glaciers and the weird topography offered scientistsa unique opportunity for original work It has happened in the past ways Dr Jacobsen that sci cntist let us say botanist has observed something andysaid It occurred during letus say the ice age But if he had consulted geologist he would have found that from geological evidence this could not possibly have no
