 The Miskatonic University has funded several expeditions around the world.
-====[[At the Mountains of Madness|Pabodie Expedition]]====
+====[[At the Mountains of Madness (fiction)|Pabodie Expedition]]====
 An expedition in 1930 to the Antarctic funded by the Nathaniel Derby Pickman Foundation.
 It consisted of four men from the University—Pabodie, Lake of the biology department, Atwood of the physics department (also a meteorologist), and an unnamed geologist —besides sixteen assistants; seven of which were graduate students from Miskatonic. The expedition ended in tragedy when a party led by [[Perey Lake]] all were killed in a massive snow storm after discovering the [[Miskatonic Mountain Range]]. The expedition was followed up by the independent [[Beyond the Mountains of Madness|Starkweather-Moore Expedition]] in 1933.
