Beyond the Height-of-Land the Full Documentary - 25 Days in the Northern Manitoba Wild

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks a lot for watching! This is a single full length film covering most of my canoe trip across Northern Manitoba, Canada with my brother @Ted Baird . I initially ran this as a 24-part episodic series and I cut the footage down by over half to make this very long single movie. Enjoy! please subscribe and thanks for all your support.

[@deanngarland8737]

I love the long videos instead of the episodes, because even when put on auto play it plays out of order for episodes. So the longer ones I always choose them!

[@KartsHuseonica]

I can't begin to imagine how much time it took to upload this full length film. But, Thanks!

[@firstboats1313]

Jim I wish I could do something like this. I try to watch all of your trips. Yours and Teds. I really enjoy you two. I Moved from Anchorage Alaska to Illinois in 2021. We drove the Alcan. I tell everyone what beautiful country it was! The Yukon was so amazing. I wanted to reach out to you guys to see if we would be anywhere near you to get pictures together. That would have been great! Looking forward to more of your trips. I love all of the antics you guys have. Missed the meals you guys cooked during this trip. I saw most of them when I watched the series. We miss seeing Buck. Want you to know that I loved him like he was my own too. God bless you for being his friend. Jon

[@aerialimaging]

Great stuff Watched it on large TV I feel as I ate bugs and fish for lunch. Thanks for the adventures

[@BlatFlattery]

WOW, sitting with a busted Achilles in South Australia, living the dream of us all. Jim and Teds fantastic adventures.

[@davido791]

This is better than watching anything on tv. Really enjoy these adventures

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Awesome to hear, thanks a lot.

[@davido791]

Im not gonna lie, it would be hard for me to deal with the bugs. I live in the South and love the outdoors. It just seems too much. How do u deal w/ it and do u kinda get used to it? Thanks

[@apiratelooksat4073]

I watch both of your channels religiously. Was home, sick with the flu (not the hachoo bug) and it was such a blessing to find this 11hr gem all together (I had seen all the individual vids). I think about Ted's comments on the fly-ins and weekend warriors vs what the First Nations people and Voyageurs did.....we do it to test our mettle...as a vacation from life....recreation. YOU two do it in the spirit of the Voyageurs....a way to make a living at something you're passionate about.....envy you both for that....thank you! BTW.....Bungle has become my favorite word.....HA!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Haha, bungle…I use it often now too but it started in its true form on this trip. Thanks for your comments there. These are def my sentiments.

[@sonsoflibertyoverland]

This is by far the longest KZbin video I have ever watched . Wow what an amazing adventure!!!!!! The ending was super hardcore. Floating in Hudson Bay in a Canoe with strapped with antlers shooting a shotgun surrounded by whales and polar bears waiting to be picked up by a boat haha. Incredible. Thank you for producing this.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

You’re welcome! That was indeed a great ending to the adventure. We were a tad concerned that we could have issues with the bears as we paddled out. Longest video I’ve ever uploaded by far.

[@sonsoflibertyoverland]

@@JimBairdAdventurer Yeah that's wild how many there were in the water. Have you ever been on the St. Johns or Allagash Rivers in Maine?

[@alcidegrenier]

one of the greatest adventure films i've ever watched

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks

[@michaelvanwinkle7919]

I really enjoyed seeing you two handle the class 3 standing waves on day 9!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks, ya that was a blast

[@Dieseldog172]

I watch every second of the commercials on your channel because of the amount of work you put into every episode. I can’t imagine what a pain in the ass it must be to lug all that stuff everywhere. Setting up cameras along the trails and going back and forth just to get the shot for our entertainment. I think most of your viewers feel the same way. We love the videos Jim and Ted so please keep them coming. Be safe out there bro’s

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Will do and thanks very much for giving my content a shot. I’m glad you like it! It is a lot of work for sure. It makes the portages harder and ultimately means we have to do three trips as opposed to two trips in each portage.

[@Dieseldog172]

No doubt it’s tough stuff, on an different adventure, I recall you had to portage about 1/2 mile and then after just a couple hundred yards you had to portage again over a 1/4 mile. I was thinking to myself, fuuuck that man. Lol but dudes like you may complain about it but deep inside you love the pain. Beast mode bro !!! Keep those long videos coming bro and be safe cuz it’s a jungle out there

[@davidjenkins4199]

Thanks Jim. Stuck in North York, so I'm living vicariously through your videos. Keep it up.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

You’re welcome, thanks for the donation man. I’m glad you’re liking the vids! I hope you get up north before too long.

[@bigbeede]

When I saw the full movie version of this epic trip I was as excited as when I sit down to watch all the Star Wars movies in a row! Thanks for all the hard work on producing all the epic adventures.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

You’re very welcome! Thanks for checking it out.

[@tonyupham2340]

A complete masterclass in wilderness logistics, problem solving and sheer bloody mindedness, congratulations on another world class adventure

[@judyschepp8748]

You are so right Mr. Upham. The pilot wished them luck with the best of intensions but this trip had nothing to do with luck. Instead it was shear determination, good planning and lots of skills and a close relationship between brothers. Absolutely a wonderful video!!🤗👍😁

[@kjames8299]

Like it when you have your brother with.He is intense in his own right

[@madisonfireman5006]

Can’t believe I watched the entire show. It took two days but I must say I enjoyed it. Do it while you can, you never know when you won’t be able to.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Agreed, thanks a lot for watching!

[@peppernc429]

Jim and Ted’s big adventure!

[@moondez1]

Like Lord of the Rings, I didn't want this to end! Oh my gosh my heart jumped for joy when I saw that you posted this EPIC ... I MEAN WOW. I had so much fun watching and I was especially thrilled to see the LONG version. You're an amazing, inspiring person and I am so grateful for the extremes you go to to SHARE your adventures with US. Can't imagine how long you spent, editing this to perfection. THANK YOU for the beautiful work you do. Such an unbelievable gift for your fans, followers anyone lucky enough to find your channel! I wish you the many, many blessings you deserve and need for your beautiful family. I go to your channel to get myself inspired!

[@Zornat89]

This is one of the top KZbin channels ever. These guys are epic adventurers

Big thanks!

this has been one of my favorite films to date.. so grateful you're documenting all this beauty and sharing it with others

[@andrewfallak7572]

Being a Manitoban now it has so much meaning to come along on this expedition with you guys enjoying your familiar humour being a good old Ontario by myself but having lived in Manitoba now for over 35 years. It is so incredible to travel to a part of the province that I will only ever dream about is so captivating and motivates me to explore my own back yard like the east side of Kake Winnipeg. THANKS AGAIN GUYS YOU ABSOLUTELY ROCK!!!

[@RathAdventures]

I love that you put these series up in a full length video, makes binge watching it so much easier!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks! I had to edit this one down quite a bit believe it or not as there were so many episodes!

[@RathAdventures]

@@JimBairdAdventurer I checked out a few of the full episodes too, great series!

[@dalewolford8737]

Amazing enjoyed your video tremendously we shared it with all our family members I am too old to do what you did but I'm Living Through Your Eyes God bless you and safe Journeys ahead for Jim and Ted

[@miriammigliacci9427]

I watched every single minute!!! I love you guys! You probably have no idea the impact you have on other people! You make me want to try! “We need challenges in our lives” you speak volumes with wisdom!

Well thanks very much

Jim, the best series you've done since the Arctic hike and the 14 days down the Yukon and the rest of them. They're all great.

[@Niagara-b5l]

I waited to watch the whole thing when you guys put it together . Incredible, You guys as brothers are awesome together . If I ever win the lottery, I’m going to make you guys an offer you can’t refuse to take me along on one journey . You are living the dream. Awesome , all of it 👍

[@MichaelUrminsky]

Jim my dad taught me to love the outdoors I can’t enjoy it with him the same way anymore as he has dementia but he enjoys your videos a lot!

[@6speed636]

Jim/Ted. Wow. Freaking amazing. What an amazing expedition. Thanks for bringing this to living rooms everywhere. Those were some amazing Walleye! Nothing like beating your own PB fish from a few minutes prior. And the polar bears at the end to cap off such a trek. Phenomenal. You are both quite funny and enjoyable to watch. I enjoyed this very much off and on over the past few days and I'm sure I will have to watch it again in the future. Cheers!

[@alanhunter2051]

Just amazing. I have never been blessed to do what you guys did but like all adventures have to come to a end. That is the worst part.. Cheers

[@marinacalabrese1218]

My favorite series you have, but the others are great too. That ending was just too epic after 3 weeks.

Love this! The footage is awesome! And thank you for making it into a long movie! We really enjoyed it and will be watching again. Happy New Year 🎊

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Awesome and same to you. Thanks for taking the time to watch! Glad you liked it.

[@gav7651]

What a docu! Apologies, but I'm from Scotland and had never heard of you guys until you were mentioned in the Paul Kirtley Podcast. So humble, tough and open. A learning experience for us all in how to apporach a remote journey; a sibling (and best friend) and, above all, how to respect nature, You both had utmost respect for everything you came across, including each other. In this sometimes too small world, I've got a bottle of single-malt with your name on it. You're so lucky having your brotherhood and past experience to be able to pull this trip off. In awe.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks a lot for the great comment and encouragement! I’m glad you like the docu. Which Poscast number was it that you heard? I’ll have to give it a watch.

[@TheRealTedBaird]

Amazing to see it all in one video so good!

[@rebeccahall4961]

YES it's nearly 12 hours long ❤️

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Enjoy!

[@Godwinpounds4333]

Hello 👋 how are you doing?

[@urzay]

This follower from Spain saw the entirely video during the weekend. Now all muscles on my body hurt. Carrying those canoes and gear in portages is exhausting. I totally agree with you in 10:26:00 talking about why you do this and the two types of fun. I like to travel by bicicle and those moments when you are suffering climbing a slope are compensated when you descend and the beauty of the panoramics. Thanks a lot for sharing all this beautiful landscapes, wild life and experiences. This should be in discovery channel, netflix etc. Congratulations!!!

[@urzay]

I meant 11:26:00

[@peggybaker69]

I have just loved this adventure you both were on. Looking forward to watching many more . Thanks guys this was fabulous.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

You’re very welcome!

[@TheNorthwestWind]

Finished watching the entire thing, took me 4-5 days, but wow. Amazing doc. Thanks so much for all you do.

[@andrewfallak7572]

Thank you so much guys for keeping it real. To quote the beloved Bill Mason “ The problem with film is you show it like it is, everyone goes of to sleep.” On the contrary I absolutely love the fact that you guys are so natural on film and sing us those great songs and come up with great antidotes and show thinks absolutely the way they are. I live in Manitoba and at my age will realistically never paddle the Seal but you guys opened a window to experience all the harshness and incredible beauty of an extremely wild place! Have been off on leave from work most of the winter and your videos have kept me enthralled and laughing and chocked up. Thanks again for sharing your amazing journeys. Hope your family are all well and you are able to make some more canoe trips with them this summer.

[@briancrockett9880]

This pops up every once and awhile and I’m always tempted to watch it again. I’ve watched it twice as individual episodes and it is by far my favourite outdoor adventure series I’ve ever watched. I remember that Ted was putting out episodes as well. Same trip a little different perspective. Loved both. I recommend this to anyone wanting to see parts of Manitoba few people get to see.

@@JimBairdAdventurer it's great to have the long versions of these. So much easier to pick up and put down when you need some vicarious adventure for awhile

[@IndigoBunting-u3i]

Just finished the whole adventure over a few days - have a lot of friends watching as well, reminiscing about those days - too old and injured now, still get out for a softcore adventure a few times a year! What separates Jim is he takes the time to tell you what you are looking at. I am interested in every plant, animal and geological feature and many just ignore that key element - well done boys and godspeed!

[@danielhuber2567]

You guys are my absolute favorite. I love watching to calm down at the end of my days, and when I fall asleep I have to go back to what I've missed. Personally I enjoy the full length videos. You guys have inspired me to take up fishing too, YEAAAAAAAAAA!! Keep it up, and thank you!
