Steger first reached the North Pole in 1986, leading a team of comprising of Paul Schurke, Brent Boddy, Richard Weber, Geoff Carroll and Ann Bancroft. He returned again in 1995, while crossing the Arctic Ocean from Russia to Ellesmere Island, Canada, with a team of five by dogsled and specially adapted canoes.
The first person to reach the North Pole is disputed, but Robert Peary and Matthew Henson were recognized for reaching the North Pole in 1909. Roald Amundsen was the first person to reach the geographic South Pole in 1911. Sir Ernest Shackleton's British Antarctic Expedition of 1907-1909 did not attempt to reach the North Pole.
If you follow a compass going north, you reach close to the North Pole.
No. If you fly due south, you will not reach the north pole. Though you may start your journey pointing due south, once you fly past the south pole, assuming that you did not change direction, you would begin flying north (because the Earth is round). While you would eventually reach the north pole, you would not be flying due south when you did.
Matthew Henson in 1909.
The first explorer to reach the south pole was roald Amundsen who was shortly followed by Robert Scott falcon. Who reached the north pole first, I have no idea.

The North Pole lies in the Arctic, the South Pole is in the Antarctic. So it'd be impossible to reach North Pole in Antarctic, since it isn't there.
Ann Bancroft was the first woman to reach the North Pole on foot and by sled. She did this in 1986 as part of Will Steger's 'International North Pole Expedition'. In 1992 she became the first woman to ski across the Greenland Ice Cap. In 1993 she led a four women team on a expedition to the South Pole. This team became the first women to ski to the South Pole. She is currently running an exploration company with Liv Arnesen.
No. Santa did not.

Maxime Edgard Chaya was the first Arab to reach the North Pole on April 25, 2009. He has also reached the South pole and the summit of Mount Everest, and also the Seven Summits.Elham Al Qasimi became the first Arab woman to reach the North pole on April 23, 2010.
No. You will reach to the North Magnetic Pole instead, which is a fair distance from the True North Pole, as the magnet always points North due to Earth's magnetic fields. The distance between the two North Poles are also changing, as Earth's magnetic fields will turn. The current South Pole will be the next North Magnetic Pole in the far future.
Wrong pole, Peary went for the North Pole, which he claimed he reached on April 7th 1909, a claim which is still disputed today.
