Yes Kerry, that is what is reported in the book also, that most pictures which were heavy photographic plates were dumped to save weight, I think even as they abandoned the ship and left with dogs and sleds. I think now that they even abandoned the dogs and the men pulled the sleds - terrible predicament!
