The Silent Sound is in Corner Brook as if finishes it’s 7,000 nautical mile expedition through the Northwest Passage.
The crew of the Silent Sound left Victoria, BC on June 6 for a west to east transit of the Northwest Passage through the Canadian Arctic.
They took the Inside Passage to Prince Rupert then cut across the Gulf of Alaska, sailed the Bering Sea and entered the Arctic in mid-July. Since then they have been sailing east and recently made their final port of call in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Open Passage Expedition Goal
The goal of this carbon-neutral voyage is to use written word, video and photos to tell the story of how climate change is affecting Arctic communities and describe modern Inuit culture and lifestyles. Scientific research provides us with facts on how the earth is changing, but our goal is to tell this story in a more creative and emotional way to reach a wider audience.
