And of course at the very end of the last series, Ray K and Fraser load up with tack and tallow, hitch up the dogs, and head out:-
Ah for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea Tracing one warm line through a land so wild and savage And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
Through the night, behind the wheel, the mileage clicking west I think upon Mackenzie, David Thompson and the rest Who cracked the mountain ramparts and showed a path for me to race the roaring Fraser to the sea
How then am I so different from the first men to this way Like them I led a sheltered life and threw it all away To seek a Northwest Passage at the call of many men To find there but the road back home again
