Did the titanic rescue ships see any icebergs?

Yes. Arthur Rostron, the captain of the Carpathia, was well aware that he was headed into an ice field. He nonetheless sent every ounce of steam to the engines (shutting off the heat and other less critical utilities) in order to reach greater than full speed in order to come to the Titanic's rescue. They were about 58 miles away when the Titanic first sent out a distress signal, so speed became very important. The level of danger was exactly the same as what Titanic had faced, so Rostron prepared for this by having every crew member on the deck and on the lookout for icebergs, as well as the Titanic's lifeboats.
