Buuxi weedha soo socota: Koonfurta Ernest Shackleton ee Koonfurta (Shackleton, Adams, Marshal, Wild)
1908 Nimrod Expedition waxay ahaayeen dadkii ugu horeeyay ee ka gudba barafka inta lagu gudajiray isku daygii fashilmay ee gaadhista Koonfurta Baaxadda. Roald Amundsen iyo Scott labaduba waxay ka gudbeen xeebta si ay u gaaraan geeska sanadkii 1911. Amundsen wuxuu qoray: "Dhinaca bannaanka ee Barrier wuxuu muujinayaa dusha sare oo siman; laakiin halkan, gudaha bay, xaaladaha gabi ahaanba way ka duwan yihiin. Xitaa markabka "Fram" waxaan ka arki karnay jahawareer aad u weyn dhinac kasta; buuro aad u weyn oo leh godad dhexdooda ah oo dhinac walba ah. Dhinaca koonfureed waxaa ka muuqday meel aad u dheer oo buurta ka durugsan tahay, waxaan u maleyneynaa inay tahay meel aad u dheer. Laakiin waxaa laga yaabaa in la qaato in buurtaasi ay sii kor u kacday meel ka baxsan aragtida".
