Felicity Aston (UK) became the first woman to ski solo across Antarctica when she arrived at the Hercules Inlet on the Ronne Ice Shelf on Monday 23 January 2012 after a 1,744-km (1,084-mile) journey lasting 59 days. She made the trip from the Ross Ice Shelf – with re-supplies – while pulling two sledges and without the support of kites or any other aids to propulsion.
