"But then came the march, a journey which was to carry them nearly 200 miles."
At "Mark Time Camp" people were not doing anything. They didn't know what to do with themselves. Then they go the order that they would hike a long excruciating 200 miles. The sailors were an absolute mess and were not even 9 miles into the hike. It had been five days and the hikers marched back to camp. As it was before, the goal of the journey at this moment in time to to get themselves out of the barren place they are now. The setting is still the same: cold and miserable, but it continues to get harder and harder after having to survive for longer periods of time with less food and shelter. Food is getting more and more scarce. The ice continues to grow thinner and thinner each day. The men are forced to retreat back to the boats and find a new camp.
