Living Under Canvas | Family Winter Camping Adventure in the Haliburton Forest
🌲 Winter Wilderness Family Adventure in Haliburton Forest! 🌲
Join us as we brave the frozen backcountry lake for an unforgettable winter camping trip! Our ice fishing for trout turns into a laughable pursuit of small perch, but we make up for it with a cozy campfire, roasting hotdogs by the lakeside.
👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 Challenges and Heartwarming Moments: Our son Wesley, facing disabilities, has a tough night, but our family decides to stay. Witness a touching turn of events as he improves, making the adventure all the more special.
❄️ Snowstorm Exploration: Brace yourself for a white-out snowstorm! Hudson and I attempt a trail in heavy snow, turning back in the rugged terrain. The journey is filled with thrilling moments in this winter wonderland.

Jim and Tori thank y’all so much for sharing this awesome video, great partnership and parenting. Huddy keeps me laughing And he’s speaking very well. I hope that Wesley gets better soon ❤️! 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

[@suezaple4950]

Awww Huddy is talking so well sounds so cute. Wes sitting up very well awesome to see how well he is doing. Indeed Tori is good at setting up camp and looking after it and kiddies she's a trooper. Must have felt good to get the fire going and be able to sit. Love Love the family adventures. I remember that cabin stay such a lovely cabin. Thanks for bring us along on this adventure.

[@mariebernadette6794]

I think it’s nice to see Jim so understanding and supportive when things don’t go as planned. After all, it’s only a tent. Patching it will work fine. And if not, get a new one. Not the end of the world, right? Huddy singing supercalafragalisticexpialadocious was EPIC!

[@gracexiong8181]

Today is the first I see your shows and really enjoy watch your adventures. You have a beautiful family, please keep your videos coming.

[@Wandering_whatsnext]

It’s Hudson’s world y’all are just living in it 😂👊🏼 Tori is one badass impressive woman.

[@NancyS-qx3ez]

Love your videos! Your kids are just the cutest. 😍 You and Tori make an awesome team!

[@SJC49]

Sometimes while watching your videos we lose sight of the fact that there is so much effort put into the camera work and editing. Thanks so much for all the effort put into your creations!😍🇨🇦

[@user-tn1hk6zm2f]

Jim does this video bring back memories. My son and I went out about 7 or 8 years ago. Had 5 miles to go back and it was 5 pm when we left the truck. It was dark when we got to where we would camp. It was 11 pm by the time we got setup and ready for bed. We made a tarp tent and it was 15 F degrees. I tried to talk him out of going at the truck being so late but there was no stopping him. He said we can do it. We did. Lol. Love your videos. I don't miss any. Thanks.

[@kjf63]

Jim, I love how real you are, Huddy acting his age in your lap “this is pointless, you get it, we’re camping in the winter” 😂😂😂

[@staceyking8800]

I'd really like to see interaction with North on these trips. I assume off camera there is more general family activity but each time I tune in he is always just in the background :/ I realise he is living an awesome outdoor life I just like to see the love too 😁

[@user-to1to7ck8v]

Hudson can literally sleep anywhere 😴 😊❤

[@kccox3446]

Yeah ❤❤❤❤ I m a Happy Thursday night Camper❤❤❤

[@martinfrantz1623]

Best part hectic then all the sudden Huddy banging on the cup.Busy little fella I remember those days myself and looking back I wouldn't change anything with my kids.love it.

[@lindapetersen1800]

JIMBO TORI she is the MOTHER OF THE YEAR !!! Yeah it is hard out there With 2 little ones !!! HUDDY is something at his age with speaking !!! I understand him a lot !!! Wesley might be having problems with the storm coming I know I sleep a lot also !!! Longest seizure for me was 40 minutes !!! Since 2017 I have yogurt for myself it makes life easier for me tummy wise !!! But storms I SLEEP HARD LIKE WESLY does !!! So he might of felt those coming on !!!

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Very interesting, thanks a lot

[@erinhenry9750]

Loving your content !! Inspirte of your challenges, y'all make it look easy and I know first hand that it isn't. Organization & the right equipment are key. Y'all are giving your boys the best life possible in my opinion. I was raised that way ❤ your boys are beautiful & the way both of you work in unison, like you do, adds to your content in and of itself. LuvinU from afar. ThankU so much !!!!😊❤

[@user-yy4ob7mz7v]

We just love to watch the Baird family adventure, We watching all of the video. Thanks for sharing to us.

[@chipmiller9074]

What an amazing adventure for you and Buck❤❤❤😅!!!!

[@wealdjourneyman]

Nice video as always. A tip to stop the little ones sliding down inside their sleeping bags - cinch a small cargo strap round the bag just below their feet. It reduces the volume of the bag so they stay warmer, and stops them sliding down inside the bag

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Oh man, that’s a no brainer! Thanks

[@jackinthewoodsii8653]

Never a dull moment. Awesome cinematography. I counted at least 5 maybe 6 camera angles in a matter of seconds on Tori's sled ride. You do good work.

[@annaflores8491]

I can remember cooking the bacon, eggs and grits on a tire rim. Ask me!

[@ralphwatten2426]

Looks like somebody got a goose egg... Bairds sure have it together as far as family winter camping. Very comfortable. North would make a great sled dog. He can really get it! Jim, if you do the tent repair yourself I hope you'd cover it in a short a video. Thanks for the family camping video.

[@daveoutdoorsscotland2854]

Thanks for sharing. A wonderful family adventure and so professionally filmed and edited. Well done the Baird family.
