How did Roald Amundsen beat Robert Falcon Scott?

There are many elements to this debate, but a few stand out. Amundsen's base camp was closer to the South Pole than was Scott's; Amundsen's team members were all experienced skiers; they were willing to use dogs to pull supply and equipment-laden sleds, and consume the dogs as part of their diet enroute. All this meant that Amundsen saw advantages in his planning and execution and took advantage of them to best Scott's efforts to achieve the South Pole by 33 days.
