In March 1990, Will Steger completed what no man had ever before attempted: the crossing of Antarctica on foot. This 18 year old shirt in (fair condition)is from Mr. Steger himself when he visited NYC to promote the exbpedition. The shirt is an XL and is in worn, but wearable condition, but a very rare penguin shirt indeed. Lured by the challenge and beauty of Earth's last great wilderness, and determined to focus the world's attention on the frozen continent now that its ecological future hangs in the balance, Steger and his International Trans-Antartica Team had performed an extraordinary feat of endurance. The team of six men and thirty-six specially bred (some part wolf) and trained huskies took 220 days to cross the seventh continent. By sled and ski they covered more than thirty-seven hundred miles, surviving the most brutal weather (windchills of -150 degrees, winds raging beyond one hundred miles an hour), traversing the plains of ice riddled with deep and deadly crevasses, and mountain ranges as high as 11,400 feet.
