In 1776 a 47-year-old Cook set sail on his third and final voyage, heading north in search of the elusive Northwest Passage, an ice-free route which linked the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

They came within 50 miles of the western entrance to the passage but were ultimately thwarted again by the elements, this time the freezing cold and ice floes of the Bering Sea.
