Lost Patrol 100
Lost Patrol 100 is a dogsledding expedition by Stefan Wackerhagen and Polly Evans from Herschel Island in the Beaufort Sea to Dawson City in Canada 's Yukon Territory , a distance of roughly eighthundred miles.
It commemorates the centenary of the ‘Lost Patrol', a group of four Royal North-West Mounted Police who, almost a hundred years ago, lost their way while mushing along this same route during a routine police patrol. In temperatures that dropped to minus 54C, they ran out of food, then ate their dogs one by one. The first three men starved to death. The fourth shot himself.
