The first phase of the expedition, from May, 1957 to August, 1958, involved the establishment of a base camp on the shores of Lake Hazen, and the setting up of an “Icecap” station on the Gilman Glacier. At the latter camp, a programme of glaciological, meteorological, survey and seismic work was carried out during field season of 1957.
