It was doable... but barely. Ironically, a lot of Arctic exploration was people searching for the Franklin expedition. So I would say the biggest difference would be that it doesn't get explored as thoroughly for another thirty years or so.
Sadly, most of the survivors will have horrific lead poisoning upon their return and their quality of life will be very poor (probably not from the canned food but the water purifier).
John Rae may be a slightly more famous polar explorer... his announcing that the Franklin expedition resorted to cannibalism almost totally scuttled his career.
Lastly, the bad habits of European exploration will linger longer (lack of proper clothing, bringing a ton of pointless gear, general lack of preparation and planning, etc.).
