Women begin arctic trek from Ward Hunt Island in northern Canada Under blue skies, three British women began their bid yesterday to become the first all-female team to walk to both poles. The team were due to leave the icelocked Ward Hunt Island in northern Canada for the frozen arctic ocean where, near its centre, some 500 miles north, lies their goal: the geographic north pole. Caroline Hamilton, 37, Pom Oliver, 50, and Ann Daniels, 37, a single mother of seven-year-old triplets, became, with two other women, the first all-female British team to walk to the south pole in 2000.
