The Coppermine Expedition (Ends of the Earth I)
Manage episode 306256890 series 2977249
In the early 19th century, European explorers had set their sights on the mythic Northwest Passage. A new trade route over the top of North America could open up incredible opportunities, but finding a route through the brutal Arctic Archipelago would prove to be one of the greatest challenges ever taken by explorers.
Ends of the Earth explores the increasingly vain efforts taken by those hoping to conquer the earth's poles. This multi-part series follows those who faced unbearable weather conditions, violent seas, and the least hospitable lands imaginable.
