20-Days Camping in the Arctic Wilderness (Special Edition)

[@studiohost]

Beautiful video, Jim.! It was great to see Ted engaged as well. We often watch your videos, and we worry about Ted a lot because he struggles to keep up with you. It was great to hear that Ted encountered an Arctic wolf and stood his ground.

[@Kktc4you]

Those drone shots of the waterfall at one hour and 27 minutes are spectacular

[@pacificbushcraftandfirecra6358]

What a amazing trip! Thanks so much for sharing with us all!

[@rustycomer8502]

Jim you’ve been on a number of amazing adventures but, for me, this one just seems absolutely EPIC!! This series needs to go viral so that the world can share in the magnificent beauty you and Ted got to witness with your own eyes! Thank you!! 🙏

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thank you very much! It was just unreal absolutely.

[@raymondcava4669]

Second time watching this. It’s like a good book or a good record

[@HH-li5xl]

Agreed!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks a lot and this one is different as I’ve convened the full trip down into one video which I’ve never really done before

[@havecoffeewilltravel3507]

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Isn’t that cool? Ya I put this one into a multi part series but this is a special edition as it’s the fill series ended down into a single film

[@johnhine8725]

It’s cool that you combined several episodes to make one video. Cheers to 2025!

[@bradynelson6799]

I watched all the individual pieces but it was cool to revisit it in total as I worked. I love having a second monitor on the desk so my mind can wander and dream a bit throughout the day! Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Good to hear and you’re very welcome!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

That is very much appreciated

[@BrokenPaddleAdventures]

That boulder is absolutely gigantic compared to everything around it...Neat Stuff! Thank you for sharing so much with so many.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

It's an amazing boulder for sure!

[@davidmodeland429]

I loved the series, looking forward to each episode was great week to week. But, I also enjoy the full documentary as well, especially when watching on a TV with other people. Its more of a program that way. Please keep doing both. You're so lucky to have your brother to experience all these remote and extreme places with. Thanks for all the effort you put in filming and taking us along!!

[@pamalvestad3848]

Incredible what you captured through the eye of the camera

[@chiforhorses]

That made my New Years Eve. Absolutely beautiful and sacred for sure! It felt like in the Lord of the Rings at times. Amazing trip and filming! Thank you for taking us along Jim. Happy New Year and all the best for 2025!

[@RangeleyAdventureCo]

Thank you for creating this content. It is appreciated. Happy new year.

[@marygordon3032]

Hey Jim and Ted I saw some massive fishing, and when y’all went down in that canyon and ran into white water was really scary. Oh l forgot y’all are THE BEAST OF THE WILDERNESS ADVENTURES, and thanks so much for sharing! 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯🎄🎄🎄

[@craigtaylor885]

That was a great video about a very challenging trip through a beautiful area. Now that you have documented it I will take it off my to do list - haha.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

[@corangerc]

Absolutely epic Jim. Great film making. Just getting better and better. All the best to you and your family(Ted too;), in the new year.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks so much, I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@JesseWSNR]

I watched the episodic series, but will have to check this edit out as well! Thanks for sharing your adventures Jim ! You and Ted are big inspirations for my own adventures.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Glad you’re enjoying this, thanks!

[@JesseWSNR]

@JimBairdAdventurer Totally! You guys are legends. Hope to catch you on the water one day.

[@jodyjustice7571]

Jim, get a freeze dryer, food is lighter, it takes all the water out, no cooking the pasta, just add water. I so enjoy your adventures.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

This is true because you could feel the weight difference between my dehydrated food and Ted’s freeze dried food of the same number of calories. They’re spend though, like 2,500 and more.

[@McQ109]

Way cool thanks dude keep um coming stay safe in 25 . All the best to you and yours in the up coming year 🎉 GBY

[@j390fe]

Tips for your next adventure; Adding a bit of cold water to your brewed coffee pot will help settle the grounds to the bottom of the pot. If you score your fish fillets in the thickest areas, they will cook at the same rate as the thinner areas. Congrats on this grand adventure and dealing with those mosquitos!

[@robertmckean1929]

What an incredible adventure! Really excellent film work as usual. Having spent some time in the outback of AK and considerably more time in wilderness areas of the lower 48, I enjoy being brought along on these adventures! The Arctic lands of this one are especially interesting because the area is so remote! A couple of things: I don't know how you stand the flies and mosquitos! I wore head nets in AK, and they still drove me a bit batty. I'm surprised you don't see and have issues with more bears, grizzlies in particular, especially in areas like the Yukon. Finally, I deeply appreciate your reverence for these special places! They are, indeed, spiritual!!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks, and ya, the reverence for these special places is something I hope everyone can share.

[@thesiluresscribe567]

Awesome footage, great vid 🙂

[@Mr880881]

How can you handle the bugs ....... I would loose my mind !! Well Done !!

[@kjames8299]

Great story teller and cinamatogragher

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Much appreciated

[@lou9029]

Nice catch man

[@CampfireKodiak]

The big rock was used to keep the caribou meat away from their dogs. Rocks were piled on top of the meat to keep the birds and sun off the meat. My theory anyway. Amazing adventure and video!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Ya, a cache. That’s what that cave was and a fox trap on top to lure any curious foxes away from the meat cache. The only thing was that those flat rocks were split into flat pieces and in a circle with a clear entrance way. Maybe they had just placed them all over to the edges of the circle as they’d removed them from the meat last time and split them so they were lighter to carry up, but still flat and not so heavy that they’d squash the meat.

[@CampfireKodiak]

@JimBairdAdventurer Could be! Your next canoe needs to be outfitted with time travel!

[@Kktc4you]

It’s always weird when you set the camera and both of you go by and go paddling down and you know you have to pull over eventually and then go all the way back up and get the camera 😂

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Indeed we do! That gets cut though so you gotta try to suspend disbelief to an extent. Typically I edit these in such a way so that it usually doesn’t seem like I’m self shooting it

[@randychenoweth3874]

Hey Jim, you and your Bro are a couple of (BAD ASSES). I have 2 questions, after making coffee, do you use the same water bottle for drinking water; and have you ever thought of shooting a Caribou for food? I'm sure you could keep it cold in the river.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

I typically just wince the water bottle out and use it for drinking water, ya. Typically caribou aren’t in season at this time of year and you would also have to engage the services of a licensed Nunavut outfitter as a non Nunavut resident (even if still a Canadian) and likely would need to be accompanied by a guide by law. The meat would go bad but you could dry it out. Once when in a challenging 35 day trip through Quebec and Labrador we almost had the opportunity to hunt caribou but needed to do it in an outfitters licences Terratory and to engage their services. So, we cold do it while passing though their area on a canoe trip, even if they were nowhere near us and no guide is necessary. We got them to pick us up of the train, stayed at their place, got a shuttle from them, bought food from them etc. before the trip. Then, last min, they couldn’t get the tag because the George River herd was in decline and somehow it didn’t work out. We had to come up with a more food and eat more fish on the trip. We would have smoked all the meat to jerky and kept some choice cuts for the first few days.

[@lgmlgm9135]

The coffee spin technique is nice. Have you tried putting a tablespoon of cold water in your cowboy coffee after it brews a few minutes? The slight change in temperature makes the grinds drop to the bottom really fast.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

I’ve tried that as well. Some people must have it figured out better than me because I think it works a out the same as this

[@marinajohn5900]

[@Kktc4you]

At one hour and 4 minutes that was a pretty good rapid

[@brclinedotcom]

Jim, what was the massive fish you caught before the large portage?

[@ez3333]

🌹🦋🦋🦋❤😇❤🦋🦋🦋🌹

[@Kktc4you]

At one hour and 10 minutes it’s pancakes for dinner You should add some protein like bacon

[@chrisharrison9220]

I've been watching the one video where you and Ted had a bust up over the fire and it was Jim's fire as he lit it and you can clearly see the way Jim had stacked the wood to stop the other logs from rolling off the fire so in ted just wanted a fight! Ted was in the wrong not Jim. And some of the places that you travel to you both should be armed at all times don't let the situation control the pair of you, you never know what is around the next corner a pissed bear or a mad moose. Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. Tight lines and good times for 2025 and good health for both Ur families.xx

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Ya that’s right but it seems sometimes when we argue out there it has to do with us each filming something the way we want it and then the other person is trying to film something themselves and each one gets in the other’s way and messes it up.

How could a bunch of people doing an expedition into that country starve to death with all the fish and animal wildlife available?

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

I dint know, maybe there were no caribou around at the time as they do migrate large distances.

[@JS-.-]

I don’t think I could do anything with that many bugs…..

[@JosephStealin]

Thyme is pronounced Time

[@Ranrow-h1g]

really nice ,except for all the portaging, I got tired just watching,,, how could the explores of the past starve with all the fish,, and wildlife,, ??/? city slickers?

[@Kktc4you]

You need a little bit of fruit and or vegetables

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks, we actually have vegetables in our dehydrated dinners and typically bring some dried fruit, though it’s heavy so we left the dried mangos home this time. We had a fryer source bar and dried pulverized fruit in our pemmican.

[@Kktc4you]

Such a weird word, portage It should just be this is where we carry our shit to the next river or lake 😂

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Probably because it’s actually a French word. The direct translation is “to carry” in the US and some of canada, people use the English pronunciation of the French work portage while most in canada use the French pronunciation of or an attempt at the proper French pronunciation like is commonly used in non French speaking parts of canada.
