A search party of men from his Terra Nova expedition found his tent eight months after he had perished with his two companions.

The Search Party was divided into two teams. The first consisted of Charles Wright (Physicist), Tryggve Gran (ski instructor), Edward Nelson (biologist), Tom Crean (P.O. RN), Frederick Hooper (steward, late RN), Thomas Williamson (P.O. RN), Patrick Keohane (P.O. RN), and Bill Lashly (Chief Stoker RN), who led a team of mules.

The second team was a dog-sledge party of Dr Edward Atkinson (surgeon, parasitologist, and the highest ranked officer left after Scott's death), Apsley Cherry-Garrard (Assistant Zoologist), and Dmitri Gerof (dog handler).

These men built a snow cairn over the tent as a memorial monument and brought the news of Scott's death, as well as the men's diaries, photographs, and records, back to civilisation. The bodies of Scott's other two companions from the journey to the South Pole, Captain Lawrence Oates and P.O. Edgar Evans, were never found by the Search Party.
