Fairbanks, their base, has since become the base of most Alaskan flying. Point Barrow was their jumping point. In 1927 they made a westerly exploratory tour to north of Wrangel Island. Three times their plane came down on drifting ice. Eielson froze his fingers fixing the motor. At the third alighting they abandoned the plane. For 17 days they walked, jumped and crawled over the floes to Beechey Point, east of Point...
