Is there a Northwest Passage?

There is now, at least for a brief summer period each August, when there is an open sea path through northern Canada. The Arctic Ocean remains blocked with pack ice for most of the year. In the early days of North American exploration and settlement, the lure of a water route from the Atlantic to the Pacific was sought by several explorers. Many lost their lives when their ships were trapped in the shifting polar ice. Until the late 2000s, only large ice-breaking ships could complete the Passage, along with adventurers who crossed using unfrozen lakes and streams.

Did the conquistadors find the north west passage?

No, and the Spanish "conquistadors" never looked for the Northwest Passage. The Northwest Passage was the - mythical - passage from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific. The explorers who searched for it were primarily English. No navigable passage was ever discovered. With modern icebreaking ships, it's SOMETIMES possible to transit the "Northwest Passage" along the northern edge of the North American continent, but this is more like sailing through the Arctic Ocean than a true "passage". It is rarely ice-free.

What were the three slave trading passages?

The Triangular Slave Trade was divided into three separate parts. First was Outward Passage along the Atlantic. Ships traveled between 6 to 8 weeks with goods to purchase human cargo. The second passage or Middle Passage was the most difficult and deadly. A lack of space, hygiene, food and water resulted in the deaths of about 10-20% of the slaves. The third or Return Passage came after the slaves were sold and the ships returned loaded with cotton, sugar, rum and spices to Europe.
