Wow. U are just amazing mr. Ron !! ❤❤❤ molto coraggioso e bravo, molto intelligente e con un hrande cuore ! Grazie che ci avete portato anche a noi, virtualmente, in quel luogo dove, dannatamente, hanno perso la vita i poveri uomini della spedizione. Triste e macabra fine hanno fatto , spero che riosa o in santa pace 🖤🌹

Must've been exciting to do the journey to get there and then search. Just one question I have though, I may be wrong but it appears that you were by yourself, weren't you nervous being alone in this artic desolate place if for any reason something would have went wrong? Excuse my language but you must have balls of steel 😂 anyway great video, I'm gonna watch the other parts. Thanks for sharing!

Watched this entire Series of your Arctic Franklin Expedition. Each series was the more interesting then the next. Bones found, buried bodies still looking like it was yesterday. The memorial of rocks covering the bones encased in a steel locker at Boat Place. I was sad when it ended. Bittersweet.

This is badass. Thanks for pointing out some of the sites where the Inuit found the dead crew members and signs of cannibalism. Makes it easier to visualize how much it must have scared the Inuit discovering that stuff Those poor poor sailors though.

Doug19752533 ~ From my charts and notes, I see I had the initial fix which got me close (that was published somewhere long ago) - “NgLj-2 was at 69 Deg 08’ 30” N, 99 Deg 02’ 17” W. But on my bigger chart, I believe I had noted it more correctly from the ground position as 69 Deg 08.418’ N, 99 Deg 02.476’ Very close, but I can’t remember if I stood there and recorded that GPS position on land, or did so from the air. Back then I would usually do most of my GPS fix recording from the airplane while flying or circling over.

Thanks! Got it pinned. Not far from my original estimate looking at old maps and drawings. Been a long time franklin fan since 1984 when the graves on Beechey were first exhumed and watched a documentary about it. Since then read alot of books about the expedition and other Arctic/Antarctic expeditions. was absolutely thrilled when they announced the findings of the Erebus and Terror... what secrets they might hold! also watched a great show called Arctic Passage which went into detail about the expedition, how some of the men may have survived as long as the winter of 1849/1850, or 1850/1851 with the help of the Inuit. I had also read an article about how Crozier and one other man may have survived as late as early 1860s in the Baker Lake area of Nunavut. Aparently inuit had told later searchers that two white men, Kabloona, were seen living in the area, and one was called "Alglooka", which was Crozier's inuit name. Farley Mowat, the author of Never Cry Wolf, had said that in that area a small cairn was discovered and in it was a wood box with dovetail joints, a carpentry technique unknown to the inuit

It’s funny you mention that, because yes, I was definitely pondering the same thing as I was standing there before the camera was rolling, when I first started to fully take it all. I can tell you this and just being there for half a day, I got this very depressed and longing feeling. A feeling that I wanted to get out of there, One thing that you realize when you are in the high high Arctic a few times for several weeks or months, how depressing and desolate it really is. Especially when you come home south, and for example you see the color “green”, what you have taken for granted. You are really taken aback of such simple things unnoticed, unappreciated and you are oblivious to. It is so flat, so barren - It is almost ONLY just rock, sand and water when you get that far north. I also noticed that the tent rings that I found were always near the smallest of slopes, where everything is almost perfectly flat. One could imagine that they were hoping that they could use the slight rise for any protection against the massive winter winds, in 24 hours of darkness. And what is truly striking is those slight rises only came up some 12 inches or so...really nothing. But in many cases, this is where they picked to pitch their tents with the stones bordering. How sad - the immense physical and mental suffering that must have taken place.
