The 2012 expedition is being led by Park’s Canada under the National Historic Sites Directorate and the Underwater Archaeology Services Program. The expedition is expected to take 4-6 weeks starting in August and will cost approximately $275,000. This expedition is a continuation of Park’s Canada’s Underwater Archaeology Service surveys conducted in 2008, 2010 and 2011. Locating the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror continues to prove very challenging die to the vastness of the Canadian Arctic and the harsh conditions frequently encountered in northern waters. The expedition is also incorporating accounts of Franklin‘s ship and crew from Inuit traditional knowledge.
The search areas include both the O’Reilly Island area, west of the Adelaide Peninsula and where Inuit Oral tradition places one of the shipwrecks, and further north to Victoria Strait and Alexandra Strait, where the other vessel is believed to be located. Parks Canada partnered with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to bring this story to the Canadian public as well. You can find a lot of information about the expedition on their site.
