Wow I'm the first to make a comment cool. Without a doubt you and Ted put out the very best outdoors adventures of Canada's vast water systems.

[@fonk_sr]

Yes! I’m the first to make a comment on your comment. 🎉

[@robertelliott5644]

Thank you, At 76 I don't get to be first too often.

[@Womanofthewoods94]

Love the deep thinking one gets while out in the wilderness!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

This absolutely happens out there! On some of my long solo trips, I think I’ve likely had the only thought that are purely my own after drifting into a meditative state for a long period of time.

[@BonnieSutherland]

Songs, comedy,adventure ! Jim and Ted knock it out of the park again ! Yaaaaaa!

[@EYES2seeEARS2hear78]

Just wish Ted would post his side of the adventure.

[@debrawild5326]

I love when you sing Jim! Makes me smile. Love all your adventures

[@darrenthompson8376]

I do not understand the views to likes ratio? These videos are amazing! Its a simple tap of the like button folks...

[@EYES2seeEARS2hear78]

No kidding! If u watch it, like it, thumbs up these epic videos! I saved up a couple weeks worth to watch today.

[@davidhuth5659]

Jim, I hear you lament the potential loss of your beautiful Canadian wilderness. I hope that never comes to fruition. I'm from the midwest US and experienced wilderness for the first time as a teen. I was fortunate to have four consecutive trip during four consecutive summers in Quetico Provincial Park. I have been in love with the Canadian wilderness ever since. Keep making these videos and inspiring people. We need what you do to constantly remind us of what we could lose without the right kind of leadership on this planet. And yes, I'm talking about that guy, who will not be named. Thanks to you and Ted for all you do!

[@FondelMikeRotch]

I live right beside Quetico and there is still great wilderness just north of it. With a little it of work and exploring there are still areas that you can find and fish a lake and not see another person there ever. In the winter with the right snow conditions, wow, you can get to very secluded areas. I have a couple that are teeming with fish….

[@LindaSimic-qt3mh]

Just love you singing and ted and your comrodery so beautiful ❤

[@davehemington6862]

You need to spin your coffee to "The WHO" emulating Peter Townsend. Maybe sing Magic Bus 😊

[@stevetinajewell8385]

Hi Jim 1:15 I can’t help thinking you are going to loose your coffee sooner or later. I’m stuck on my couch with quad tendon rupture twice in 3 months. So your videos are keeping me sane and I look forward to getting out on my own adventure. Thanks.

[@richardplunk3910]

Thanks again guys for another fantastic trip, safe travels 👍🍺

[@mattphillips6578]

I need more of the footage of you and Ted on camera together. I know u r both shooting your own videos but love when you guys are together on camera.

[@lindapetersen1800]

BUILD IT & they will come Jimbo & Ted !!! Just to have pancakies that is what we had for supper at night time !!! It was sure BEAUTIFUL up there right now !!! Glad you 2 are together up there !!!

[@palletcabin-YR_Author]

We love this series. The music added to the canoeing sequences, awesome. We lived in Northern Manitoba for over 20 years. The lakes and fishing were brilliant. Sorry, we don't miss the bugs, short summers, or -50+ nice to see your adventures though.

[@dyannejohnson6184]

Good morning Ted you’re up first today….Hello Jim, love your narratives…… I must swing my coffee out on my deck singing a cowboy song! Then management in my seniors unit can give me dementia test…then politely require I move to next level of care!!! Run for the bush!!

[@sherrierifenberg2199]

J and T…another special video…love the singing, sights and adventure! TY!

[@franklinmarchman3541]

Cheers from the “Mag”….. Thank you for sharing your trip! Looking forward to seeing that next rapid! “BRACE, BRACE!!!

[@antoniomora1255]

At time 11:30 you speak about your thoughts and feelings on that most gourgeous part of the Globe: the Artic Canada. What you and Ted are living crossing the solitude of that pristine barren landscape is quite a privilege. Fishing and eating those beautiful orange colored lake trout in those isolated spots...wow!

[@marygordon3032]

Hey Jim and Ted, I love how you explore and reflect on things from the past Jim. Keep singing! 👏👏👏👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

[@garys_shave]

Another fantastic adventure you two!🌲🌲🌲

[@pacificbushcraftandfirecra6358]

Another great stretch of an incredible journey!

[@Judy-fi7ce]

Some philosophy, some funny comments, all made for a good video. You and Ted are expert paddlers. Some of those rapids looked challenging. Loved the mama ptarmigan and babies. Looking forward to the big rapids and waterfall.

[@jasonlynch2919]

Another banger video guys. The next one looks exciting too. Thanks.

[@willbjaminoregon9001]

It is the best of the best adventures

[@anthonyoliver6023]

Man, that hit home the song and talk about doing things. People spend too much time on social media. Thanks for another great adventure!!!

[@mrgreenfuf]

Jim. That is a MEC pot and lid. You can use the handle on the pot to lock down the lid. And you can push down on the handle so it doesn't tip down while using it. If you put the lid on the pot and align it with the other pot notch, and use the handle to lock both together. I have had same kit for 30 years and its still the best out there.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

I think it is and I e had it forever too but one of the little upper brackets in the handle is broken off so it doesn’t work to do that anymore.

[@mrgreenfuf]

Jim. Thanks for replying, that's so fantastic. I have followed you since Alone. If you would be interested in trading... "mine for yours" my entire set is in great shape, and I would trade you broken ones if you so desired, since you go on way more adventures that I have as of late. We could email and set it up if you like. I am in ontario.

[@BBP3255]

Just WOW JB and Fam again!! you know you rock it, AND TK might proud of your rendition of I S H B A C😆😆😆Much luv on y'all, keep it up!! God's got yer 6! Take care of yourselves and each other ;~)

[@TheDisco672]

Baird Brother Gold!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks

[@justindobro]

Best adventure videos out there … I had a similar encounter with Golden Eagles here in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia this year… first thought they were black hawks, then juvenille bald eagles, but I had very good video of them and they were actually golden eagles …

[@vandall0160]

Cowboy coffee recipe is boil your water, add your grounds, and right before the pour you add cold water. This causes all the floating grounds to immediately sink to the bottom and you can pour a grind free cup every time. When you boys get older like me and spinning a Nalgene could result in a pulled muscle, give it a try! 45 years of hiking, paddling and camping, the cowboy coffee is a camping staple. I must say three grinds via spinning is a pretty good method I have never seen.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Sure, terrible KZbin video though 😉

[@dedwin8930]

Love your singing!!!!

[@RE_FLEXX]

Love these videos man! This is an epic trip so far. Appreciate all the hard work it takes to do this sort of thing and get all the awesome footage too. We spend a lot of time camping out in the mountains (we’re in Alberta) and I’ve only done a little camping in the NWT back in the day. But these sorts of vids always make me wanna get back up north sooner than later :)

[@Larry77777]

Hey Jim: I loved your little dig about Corporate America. And Ted's sarcastic IHOP suggestion.

[@kenmarapese9085]

Epic beauty, location, remoteness and adventure which is beyond my reach, thank you!

[@katy2too217]

This is fantastic - loving this Hood River series - and your commentary, especially this episode, draws me into the experience. Thanks you two! 🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@TheYukonnahanni]

Wonderful Vid of Home for One Yukoner So Far Away from Home .. T.Y.

[@michaelreid819]

loving the double dunt jim!!!! yyyyeeeeaaaahhhhh!!!!

[@tigersbaseball1989]

2 videos a week is just fantastic! Thanks Jim!

[@jamesfischer5389]

Well, it's not 🎼 "Loch Lomond" but it'll have to do! AND THEN..... . . . Almost Unbelievably, You Start Singing, LOCH LOMOND!!! Your thoughts on the Canadian Wilderness, reminds me of the Joni Mitchell Song; "Big Yellow Taxi" ☮️💜🇺🇸

[@Craigskitchen360]

You have such a great spirit in the wild Jim. Can’t wait for the next one! Fish crisp with some Greenling filets look amazing too

[@robertelliott5644]

Jim, Ted I was looking through a book called Freshwater Gamefish of North America by Dick Sternberg World record on Lake trout. A 65 pound was caught in Great Bear Lake, Northwest Territories 1970. and a 102 pounder was taken using a gill net in Lake Athabasca Saskatchewan 1961. That laker you cradled in your arms was a tank. Imagine what monsters are in those lakes. Again I thank you both for taking us along on all of your outings.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Oh ya, we are well aware of these records! I think the Great Bear Lake record has since been broken by the same guy.

[@johnbowen8969]

Good rendition of "The Bonnie Banks o' Loch Lomond" Jim.

[@arbdapeish]

Thanks for the ride!

[@williamleopold507]

Enjoyed your video , thanks for sharing .

[@lindawingrove9797]

Thanks!

[@melonyrichards937]

Another awesome video. I love it when you show the wildlife. Thank you for all that you do to bring us awesome videos. Both of you.

[@yamabiru4553]

Amazing

[@jeannemarcinek4575]

I enjoy your video, love the singing, especially of Scotland. You and Ted out do yourselves, I am wondering was there any polar bears or grizzly bears on your adventure? Beautiful country of the Arctic, Canada has a beautiful country sad that it may someday be ruined. Blessings

[@MichaelW969]

Its good 2c you and Ted on an extended adventure without so many killer portages😂😂

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Umm, the trip ain’t over yet 😉

[@ML-sy6le]

A golden eagle? Wow! Just wow.

[@MonoBrawI]

Oh wow - I had to google what a Golden Eagle is to reaize this is one of the very species we have here in Europe. Amazing to find out they are so wide spread.

[@janicecraig2364]

Wow Jim waxes poetic regarding “The Banks of Loch Lomand”🎵

[@kjames8299]

Nice cookware demo

[@mikeman230]

You should start you own line of designed titanium cookware.

[@chiprucker5735]

Bald eagles hold their wings flat, while Golden's hold their wings in a slight dihedral. The wings looked they were held pretty flat, plus it went into a glide off the downbeat which is indicative of a Bald Eagle. Cool sighting nonetheless.

[@AaronMcLees]

Sorry I can't contribute to you. I love your videos. I travel for work and camp to save money. Keep making these awesome videos.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

No problem at all and you are contributing

[@CanadianSledDog]

Wow that's a heavy cook kit! I only use titanium (pot, pan, and mug) saves weight for beer and dog food! It's hard to find a pot with a good lid though!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

It definitely is, great kit but the stink was is definitely heavier

[@Ottedikkie]

Years ago I saw a golden eagle (steenarend in Dutch) in the Netherlands, hovering over a big river. It was só big ...

[@kccox3446]

🎉❤🎉 watching know ❤

[@TroutTrax]

Saw Musk ox on the Dalton Highway near deadhorse Alaska walking the pipeline, super cool animal

[@grimace79]

cowboy coffee is way better when you grind the coffee extra fine Jim.

[@chiprucker5735]

wings looked like they were held pretty flat :)

[@Dino-p3p]

Tori I want to try that famous maple syrup Jim is talking about. Anyhow have a great weekend

[@2yellowcanoe]

Love the videos, love the commentary but not the singing! 😂

[@thegreatoutdoors2272]

great video! where did you and ted get your hats?

[@1954shadow]

“The Cowboy Song,” will settle your grounds, lol.

[@kevinfoley7704]

Need more Ted time.

[@terifrancis5834]

Nice calming show after Tuesday’s election

[@Bambam21476]

We drank "cowboy coffee" at work for years and the way we got the grounds to the bottom was to pour a little cold water in a circular motion on top of the pot right after taking it off the stove. I don't know the science behind it but it worked...no grounds.

[@grey8940]

Portage!!!

[@amyburl3826]

I’m surprised you guys don’t have an oatmeal sponsor by now lol Quaker Oats where you at? 😄

[@buffalolizard]

Jim, just curious if this region is currently protected by the Native Tribes or held in reserve for Tribal peoples?

[@jmanschot9132]

Thanks ! One question how was ted’s canoe holding up a trip like that?

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Held up great

[@dalenesbitt]

I lolled when I saw the extra canoe seat. I guess a catastrophic failure like what happened on the Seal won't be as easy to fix when there's no trees around.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

It’s just that I forgot to remove it in Yellowknife as I sit in the front seat and face the stern (making it my bow), of the canoe that was outfitted for tandem paddling, so, that is the stern seat I had to remove to fit my gear after the float plane dropped us off.

[@mattphillips6578]

Do you guys use instant coffee on these trips or just regular brew and deal with the grounds?

[@jarrodday]

Jim, great videos, I have been a subscriber for some time and love watching you and the content you create. Can you tell me, what or where do you have your music account to use licensed music for your videos ?

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks a lot. Ya, music bed, epidemic sound, and sound stripe. Hope that helps.

[@heidikantor1790]

Do you have a link for that hexclad pan? It looks awesome.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

It is but I don’t, and I think it’s discontinued. It’s like HexClad but made by GSI, I believe it was called the glacier way cheaper than HexClad proper

[@PY3WS]

Wow!! Are there bears in the area?

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Fire sure, tundra grizzlies and polar bears closer to the coast

[@EnjoyTheWild1]

How did Ted's canoe hold up? Did you guys have to patch it at all? Any recommendations where we could get a pot like yours? Been looking but cant find one like that. Can't wait for the next one.

[@tuewee]

Well, at the risk of being argumentative, but you had pancakes for supper. Dinner is a midday meal, oftentimes on a Sunday after church. 😂😂

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Glad you got such a kick out of that. That’s not the case in canada where I’m from. French use the word dîner for a mid day meal. In northern Ontario they say supper as opposed to dinner but they understand dinner to mean supper. A midday meal is called lunch in English speaking canada.

[@richardmcconkey715]

Keep songs a commin

Cold helps protect from humans

[@nhaist6910]

For some reason the chapter titles are for your Yukon Trip?

[@KB-lj4vk]

You don't have to put music on, the sounds of the river is much better.I don't mind your singing 😂

[@thebandit7404]

What is the brand/name of that pot and lid combo you highlighted? Sure would like to check this out. Thanks!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

They are by MEC but no longer made. A company out of Germany is making something similar, maybe better checking Tatanka

[@thebandit7404]

@@JimBairdAdventurer Thanks again Jim, sure do appreciate it!

[@checkscher3047]

Love your videos, but not a big fan of all the music. I prefer to hear the sounds of the water as if I was experiencing it like you were. The natural soundscape was one of the things I thought made your videos stand out. But that's just my opinion and I'll keep watching - still among the best on KZbin. Keep up the great work!

[@JudyNorthcutt-Lander]

Why is this in Spanish? It also had some French translations.

[@EYES2seeEARS2hear78]

May I ask again- where in the Canadian Wilderness is Ted Bairds experience? Jim, please tell me you didn’t eat your little brother!?!?

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Haha, he’s working on it

[@studiohost]

Looks like orc territory! Be careful, dudes !!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Yikes! Haha

[@HamishMackenzie7]

I'm trying to watch the video but it is auto dubbing in Spanish. How do I turn it off???

There's something about a yellow canoe.....

Why is it in a different language? This video and your latest family trip post gives me language options all except the original English. Only these 2 videos. The rest are fine. Anyone else experiencing this?

[@davefisher5364]

Yes, I am experiencing the same thing. No option to even switch to English. On my phone there is no issue but on my Samsung TV the video is not in English with it not even being an option. Very strange.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Weird

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

That is strange

[@Dogteddy1]

your video time lines are very confusing. Yesterday you were ot with the family on a trip !!

Thanks for letting me know. I try do do regular update videos to explain this and also post real time stuff on my Facebook and Instagram. Here is my last update that will answer your questions, it’s called “what’s going on around here” lol.
