Raymond Carver's "Where I'm Calling From" ends with the narrator contemplating this story. In its final pages, its protagonist imagines himself as Mercury skimming across the land while running towards Henderson Creek. The main character thinks that his hands hang like weights after pulling off his mittens with his teeth, and finally concedes that the advice from the old man of Sulphur Creek was correct. That character's dog goes in search of new food- providers after the protagonist's last desperate attempt to perform the title action, which became a matter of life and death when a pine tree dumped snow upon an earlier attempt. For 10 points, name this short story about a man who freezes to death in the Yukon, by Jack London.
