The American Franklin Search Expedition: open rapids, Back's River, 1881
The American Franklin Search Expedition: open rapids, Back's River, 1881. Some remaining Illustrations, from the Sketches by Mr. H. W. Klutschak, the Bohemian artist, who accompanied the expedition of 1878, 1879, and 1880, sent out by the New York Geographical Society in search of relics and monuments of the ill-fated Arctic exploring party commanded by Sir John Franklin in 1847, appear in this Number of our Journal...The American party...travelled with several dog-sledges, for the conveyance of their needful stores, accompanied by a numerous band of Netchillik Esquimaux, and passed two winters in that dreary region...the second winter being occupied by their return journey, across Adelaide Peninsula, and over Back's River and Wager River, to the place from which they had started, arriving in the first week of March, 1880. This overland winter journey was a feat that had not been attempted by preceding Arctic travellers, and the experiences of Lieutenant Schwatka and his companions...were of more than usual interest... the rapids of Back's River...were passed in the march of four hundred miles northward from Hudson's Bay to Simpson's Strait'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
