This man-made structure was once owned by English explorer Sir William Edward Parry. His 1819 voyage through the Parry Channel was probably the most successful in the long quest for the Northwest Passage. On this expedition, Parry attempted to reach the Lancaster Sound without going around Baffin Bay. However, his ship was blocked by ice and Parry and his crew were forced to spend the next ten months anchored in a place Parry called Winter Harbor where temperatures dropped to -54°F. In 1827 he attempted one of the earliest expeditions to the North Pole.
