现年47岁的斯坦斯原定大约用60天时间来完成冒险计划,但她在湿滑的冰层上走了84天还没有完成目标后,就选择了放弃。而她最终离自己的终极目标还有89英里。
The Londoner had trudged 326 miles through some of the worst weather conditions Arctic experts had ever seen.
来自英国的斯坦斯已经在极地附近行走了326英里,期间她历经了北极地区从未出现过的恶劣气候。
If Rosie had got into trouble during her trek, a rescue mission would not have been possible because of the condition of the ice.It was for this reason that a supply aircraft picked her up and took her back to Resolute Bay in Canada.
环境的恶劣让斯坦斯的生命受到威胁。如果她在行程中出现任何意外,她不可能得到及时的援救。最后,斯坦斯选择放弃,而一架运输机将她送回加拿大的Resolute海湾
Rosie, who undertook the trek for charity, said it was "much tougher than she envisaged".
斯坦斯发起这次极地徒步行目的是为慈善事业捐款。她表示,探险的过程比她想象的艰难得多
Even though she didn\'t get to the Pole, she has travelled further into the Arctic than any other solo female explorer.
尽管斯坦斯最终没有达到北极点,但她已经进入了北极圈,且创下了女性独自探险行程之最。
