Next day another start toward Baffin Bay was made, through blinding fog and raging blizzard. In Murchison Sound, the Bowdoin grounded her oaken keel on a rock ledge and stuck fast. The Peary sidled alongside to pass a towline and 34 steel drums of gasoline were heaved into the seas of seething slush to lighten the stranded hull. Nearby, a cruising iceberg burst...
