Hitchhiking Was Common In The ’60s And ’70s
People relied on hitchhiking to get around the country in the 1970s. It was a little risky, but the thought of the freedom that came with it enticed young people. The truth is that hitchhiking has always been a part of human culture since the beginning of time. However, it was only in the 1970s that it became more popular. These kids put their lives in the hands of strangers behind the wheel back then. However, this has become much less common in recent years. People still hitchhike, but not as frequently as they used to.

People were awestruck as explorers took on the Arctic at the turn of the century. People competed for the honor of being the first to reach the South Pole! Robert Falcon Scott, a British explorer, launched the Terra Nova Expedition in 1911 to do just that. On their way to the “pole hunt,” the group encountered difficult conditions. They arrived on January 16, 1912, after nearly a year of waiting. The most tragic aspect of the story was that a flag had already been placed there! Norway’s Roald Amundsen beat them by a month.
