Northwest Passage. Escorted by the
Canadian Icebreaker Pierre Radisson, the
National Geographic Explorer successfully transited Bellot Strait before turning around in Franklin Strait after encountering extremely heavy, multi-year pack ice.
The
National Geographic Explorer also successfully navigated Fury and Hecla Strait, also with the aid of the
Pierre Radisson. Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic offers a series of exciting itineraries exploring the Arctic region.
