Yes he was.

Apsley Cherry-Gerard, one of Scott's crew, led an expedition in the later months of 1912, to find the polar team. They came upon the tent that had been mostly drifted over by blowing ice crystals and snow. They dug into the ten, opened the flaps and discovered the three remaining explorers: Dr Wilson, Captain Scott and Birdie Bowers. In the middle of the three, Captain Scott had thrown off his deer-skin bag, and thrown open his coat.

Cherry-Gerard's team removed all portable items from the tent -- tools, equipment, journals, letters written by the explorers to their families, and such -- and re-buried the tent.

It is assumed that the tent drifted with ice calving into the Southern Ocean, no formal or absolute result has ever been documented.
