Cape Horn is where the open waters of the Atlantic and Pacific collide, creating powerful, swirling waves. Rounding the cape would once strike fear into the heart of hardened sailors, but with the benefit of modern instruments, we'll attempt to land - an exploration milestone - and explore the cape ... if the conditions cooperate. ...
