This is the first in the series of videos of the trip through the Northwest Passage on the cruise ship Crystal Serenity.
The trip began in mid-August and finished in mid-September 2017. We started in Anchorage, AK and ended in New York City, NY. This was the second and, as of March 2020, the last time the ship made the voyage.
Mid way through, we picked up an escort ship (capable of performing ice-breaking duties) which carried zodiacs and two helicopters. That was augmented by a Canadian Coast Guard icebreaker that patrols the NWP in the summer months.
In this video, we overview the entire trip.
This is one of our early trips (before we started taking video). it consists mainly of still photographs so it's in the "slide show" style.
