Canoe North Adventures was honored to recieve two prestigious nods from the 2014 Frozen Globe Awards last week.
The Frozen Globes celebrate the cream of the crop across Canada’s three territories in all types of business in a variety of categories.

A guiding company, owned and operated by Lin Ward and Al Pace, CNA has been in business for 18 years with Al and Lin’s paddling experience spanning a combined 25,000 miles in Canada’s far north. Their expertise spans rivers and hikes in Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Yukon with Al’s first trip occurring in 1977 on the Coppermine River. After several years paddling rivers in Nunavut, Al and Lin started paddling in the Yukon and in the last 10 years have been very focused on the Northwest Territories.
During the summer, they are based in either Norman Wells, Northwest Territories or Whitehorse Yukon. They run a combination of novice, intermediate and advanced trips for youth, women, men, couples, singles and for the not so young vintage paddlers. Their reputation is for offering safe and logistically sound expeditions with a high level of personal attention and care for their paddlers.
