Which Norwegian explorer reached the South Pole first in 1911?
It was Roald Amundsen who set out from the Bay of Whales and used dog teams for the entire journey, unlike Scott who man-hauled his sledges and who had only four sets of skis for five men, starting from McMurdo Sound and taking the extremely difficult route up the Beardmore Glacier. I recommend the book "The Worst Journey in the World" for a very moving account of the Scott expedition. It was written by the man who found the bodies of Scott, Wilson and Bowers.

Why was Roald Amundsen's a successful journey?
In the Heroic Era of polar explorers, Raoul Amundsen is set apart as arguably the best. His vocation was exploring. He learned from Fridjof Nansen, a premier polar explorer of the north, who studied life and survival with native northern peoples. Amundsen understood equipment required for polar exploration and was a solid planner. Amundsen was the first human to set foot at the South Pole, among his other accomplishments. After his success in Antarctica, he returned to 'civilization' and lectured for months, raising money to pay his expedition debts. This work continued until news of Scott's demise caught up with the world, in November 2012.
