Robert Wasn't Prepared To Go On This Adventure
He was ill prepared because he didn’t have enough food supplies and he didn’t think for his dogs to pull the sleds as the explorers themselves had to pull them. The explorer that beat Scott was smart and let his dogs pull the sleds so he was much quicker than Scott.
This Adventure Didn't Turn Out Well For Scott
Unfortunately this adventure did not go well for him because he died in starvation and his mates left him in his sleeping bag. His mates also died as well.

However Scott showed leadership qualities of braveness, kindness, caring for others to overcome the hard ship of coldness, travelling distances.
We believe that Scott is an incredible explorer and he is hard working.
