We Did a Fly-In Moose Hunt in Newfoundland | Eastbound Overland - E.9 - Off-Grid Cabin & Floatplane
Finally the heavy wind stopped and we boarded our floatplane early in the morning for our flight into a remote off-grid cabin in Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula. The cabin is owned by a hunting outfitter, Portland Creek Outfitters. The flight was beautiful and the kids enjoyed the views. We unloaded the bush plane and hauled our gear up to the off-grid cabin. Noon, I was out hunting. After putting a good amount of effort in, calling and trekking to different spots, even crossing a river, we were unsuccessful. Jamie pointing to a mountain top across the lake and said he wanted to head up there to try the next morning. I was game and after the trek, we set up in a spot with great vantage points and started calling. After some time we managed to call in a bull and ultimately we were successful. Hauling it down from the mountain top through dense bush and across deep bogs was a real challenge but we got back to the boat, leaving another load for the following day. While I hunted, my with Tori went on a hike with the kids, copped some wood and just hung out at camp. Delicious food was on the plate too and we enjoyed fried cod, cod aux gratin and bacon and eggs for breakfast. We were the last people in the camp that season.

[@chuckbeattyo]

All the off trail bushwhacking, I can watch hours and hours of that. All the views, incredible. Thanks so much. Favorite channel on KZbin.

[@erictremblay6867]

That was great, you still manage to take some beautiful shot. I hope it does not get demonotize. I liked the suplemental commentary from home and the nice views.

[@chrisblack8390]

Every part of it was my favorite!

[@roses486]

It's the family togetherness for me. Jim you are a good man and husband. You and Tori together are the best. Enjoy all of your footage. It's like watching a good movie. Much ❤️. I can't forget North. Great companion.💕

[@tomcarpenter1153]

Enjoy all of it but my favorite is your oldest son smiles.

[@montybarbee8128]

I love the fact that your not above acknowledging what Torri does so that your able to do what you do .

[@davemayers9342]

Absolutely epic !! Tori does so much it was very cool to recognise her efforts on all your shows, not just this one. Huge respect to you all ❤💯

[@user-zm5dw9vr5d]

So cool how it’s a family adventure, you are right kudos to Tori!

[@stanhawkins1023]

Jim, I’m a long time viewer and I know how much you would have preferred to have lots of proper footage. But given the constraints of your equipment, I found this documentary/interview hybrid presentation worked great. Congratulations! Hell of a job!

[@Memorex88]

The antlers on the boat from the cabin was definitely my favorite! You're the real deal Jim! Hats off to Tori and the family. Love you guys!

[@lusiiiman]

thanks for letting us live through your experience, honestly really a gift

[@normarobertson3909]

Excellent video! It's hard to pick one favorite part of it, I enjoyed every minute. But, Weslys smile in the plane when leaving camp , was special. Another great family adventure. ❤️ Forgot to say congrats on that moose you got. It was a big one🫎👍

[@michaeldusso6882]

This episode reminded me of an old 1960s TV show called American Sportsman, hunting show that aired every Sunday. One of the great things about this entire series is seeing Wesley constantly smiling, he’s having a GREAT time !!! THNX guys

[@jacknobrex]

Your children will definitely have beautiful memories, they will appreciate your hard work and the love of such great parents ✌️👏👏👏

[@MAJJJJJJ]

Thank you Baird family for this video. It was FANTASTIC.

[@paparomesoutdoors711]

thanks so much for sharing, excellent video. be safe

[@luluwan5212]

Great moose hunt and so glad you try so hard to both keep the hunt ethical and do all the work yourself(and your great guide Randy). Fabulous family adventure and Wesley's smile said it all.

[@kimberlyzamora4437]

Great episode Jim and Tori. ✌️ ❤️

[@elizabethmunroe3676]

I've always wanted to go on a float plane, and this really gave me a feel for what it would be like. Poor North! You know just how young he is when he gets on Jim's lap when he's scared. I'm sad to see the moose kill, but live in northern Alberta where I know a moose means a family eats all winter long. Great footage of trekking on the moose hunt. You definitely worked hard for this. Can't wait for next week.

[@sdcrilly]

That was FANTASTIC! Thank you to both of you and the kids for sharing this great adventure with us.

[@newfsareus]

So glad you got your moose and you sure had to work for it. Loved seeing your family there in the bush. Well done.

[@judyschepp8748]

[@criticalmass9198]

Great vid Jim!

[@scottbutler7521]

I watched All of your trip videos from Ontario to Newfoundland/Labrador beginning to end, Awesome coverage plus what a Beautiful Family and Video Trip. This is National Geographic material and I suggest they pick up your series before someone does. The resources you use are top notch, drone, video equipment, descriptions and detail of your trip! What a great job you both have done here on KZbin! Very Touching and Enjoyable...Thank you all...as a Family for this trip Gift to Us KZbinrs!!!!

[@JasonMcCann841]

A great trip and Jamie is one amazing guide. You got a big bull in our beautiful province. What a bounty! You won't forget that one.

[@CanoeCampClimb]

I have serious bush plane envy. Some day. Congrats on dropping that moose. I learn a lot by watching your channel and I want to say thank you.

[@TBlack99]

Great Moose…. Love watching your videos…. Tori is a definite MVP in my book

[@debbiejanes3851]

It was salt pork. Delicious. What a great adventure.

[@brucehorner]

Awesome as always. Good job.

[@grizzlypear__6443]

Jim this episode is your best ever! I love the format of interviewing after-the-fact. Hopefully you do more of it! Thanks for sharing such an incredible adventure!

[@camhaines5482]

EPIC!

[@kristingrounds4163]

So glad you got your moose!!!! Next episode looks great I can't wait!

[@ckalnicki]

Very Nice Hunt! Great to be in the wilderness with the family. Memories that will last a lifetime. Very cool Brother !

[@Hunting_Grt_whiteNorth]

Props to your self, digitally documented & narrated filmography. It was a straight forward, shot from the hip & generally down to earth presentation. With all the generality of hard work, and no bull shit or hyped up self promotion / religious eulogy. No offense meant to anyone that way. I like this type of genuine truthful & almost bedtime/ campfire story. You and your big adventures are just so real & appealing to kindered ( salt of the earth) kinda people! Yup, ( I'm a fan;) after only one episode! Now that's impressive 👏

[@pacificbushcraftandfirecra6358]

Living the dream! All good stuff!

[@feliciamarquez9621]

Those view at end are breathtaking GB Jake Nicole n Fox from my dark NYC life until your next one ❤❤❤❤

[@lpschick7237]

I love watching these videos when you do the commentary style along with the actual video. What a beautiful earth God created.

[@kaytownsend5349]

Congratulations on getting a moose

[@anthonyrstrawbridge]

The firm texture and rich pleasant taste is top notch grade a first class in my experiences. I love to make spaghetti sauce with big moose balls (coarse ground) noodles and garlic bread. I make several extra loafs for the next day, slice, pile the balls inside, bit of sauce then heaping mozzarella ( jalapeno slice) wrap each in aluminum foil and bake for an hour. Moose doesn't need it but it's perfectly fine if you want to incorporate 10% sheep and goat. Never forget the vino. Another favorite is to thin slice, salt pepper, mustard onion pickle, roll tight, toothpick it, bake an hour. Pan gravy over spatzels. Mama nennt das Roulade.. Great work Jim.

[@debbieholman906]

So interesting. Loved it

[@johnlindatippett5019]

Hi Jim, this John and Linda Tippett from Newfoundland. We love your adventures! WE both hope you enjoyed our little province of Newfoundland. 3:14

[@justinsi1097]

[@wayoftheroads]

Love following along on the family journey !

[@caseybourne4115]

Awesome Episode!!

[@rjs7192]

Awesome!!

[@BuckMckawtheotherone]

That Jamie is one tough Newfie. He looked like he was running circles around you, and you're one tough Dude yourself. Congrats on the harvest, eat well.

[@judyspaulding3727]

Awesome time!!

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

I'm very happy for you Jim that you were able to have a sucessfull hunt. Truely a very exciting time. It was so good to see you, Tori, Wesley, & Hudson. It was nice to see your guide & how he helps aide you throughout the hunt. Very nice & inviting camp. The fish dinner looked delicious! Cod is my favorite. Looking forward to Gross More National Park. Loved the morning waking up. Really enjoyed this video. That was cute North looking out the window then jumped up on your lap. Just like a kid. So precious were those smiles of Wesley & Hudson. Sure hated the camera breaking for you. In hopes all 4 of you have a wonderful weekend!

[@shayetanner6431]

I liked the humble approach the outfitter took. I'd be interested in checking them out in the future. Even though you weren't able to film it all you still caught the essence. Plus, somethings are to be kept for yourself, especially when taking a life. It should be personal. Thanks for sharing Jim. UR my fav

[@johnhine8725]

So very cool to see all your awesome adventures along with you and your family, especially your kids! North is a sweet pup. Thank you for all the hard work you two!

[@douglasscott5003]

Thanks for sharing. The one you'd shoot on the last day should be the one you'd shoot on the first day. Cheers.

[@patrickrhodes2620]

Fantastic episode Jim.

[@user-rl2wc5yg2t]

Wesley 🎉🎉smiles..

[@mcbnj]

[@welderman1221]

Wow!! Great stuff , Jimmie!!

[@CaveCreek101]

Thanks for another great video 😊you guys are the luckiest people

[@mytinyjourney]

Great video. I was actually afraid to watch it because I have a hard time with killing of animals. Thank you for being kind in what you showed and didn’t show. Of anyone I know you have respect for the animals, how you hunt and using what you’ve taken. Congratulations.

[@HamsterLife_EnglishLearning]

Another awesome video

[@ClintZold]

Really cool man.

[@davidgornick87]

Jim: you finally made it to “The Rock”! Hope you found it worthwhile, compared to other parts of Canada.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Thanks a lot and absolutely! It’s an amazing place to say the least.

[@joelmeeter849]

Congatulations on your moose! Great Hunt, enjoy all that meat!

[@surfgate]

Epic video Jim! Loved the chat & footage fill in format. Congrats on your moose! You and Tori are inspiring parents. Damn, your kids are experiencing things that are just incredible. Keep on rocking it!

[@marygordon3032]

Hey Jim and Tori I just loved this video and thanks so much for sharing! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️

[@MarilynCKing-me6yh]

Loved the video. Would someday love to try Moose. Beautiful scenery as always. Beautiful family.

[@kshadle78]

Love your videos. Love you family. Love everything you do! GOD bless you!!!😊😂😢

[@ML-sy6le]

Awesome. Wonderful adventure.

[@aitutaki50]

Excellent video...I've seen many moose over the years throughout my travels--quite a few in Alaska, but also in Maine. I don't have a problem with hunting moose, caribou, elk, or deer (as regulated) primarily for meat. What I do have a problem with is sport trophy hunting for big game apex predators such as bears, tigers, & lions.

[@HamsterLife_EnglishLearning]

Oh, another great video. I'm looking forward to watching this video later tonight as well.

[@ADVENTUREKM]

Awesome video and a lot of work with that hunt. Really interesting info on the moose calling. That's the way hunting should be. Cheers

[@eric09laura]

Cool video and great hunt.

[@southdakotasaved126]

An absolute incredible episode, this has been such an exiting series from the get go, Thank You! 💥

[@kjames8299]

Excellent narration.Natural story teller.

[@gordonsanders1486]

[@bonnieadams4681]

This is a great video as all your work/editing is. You are both wonderful parents to your amazing children. Tori I am going to give a shout out to you for sharing your life with the world. Your smile brightens my day even though I would guess life on the road with children can present it’s challenges.

[@yendy85]

Wow your journey is amazing Jim

[@brianbrown6455]

Jim…the cod you had fried was fried in salt pork fat. Cut up in small pieces. The newfoundlanders call it scrunchions.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

That’s what it was! Scrunchions

[@chrisblack8390]

That was wonderful! Loved the plain ride in. Those hills looked so nice. All the sunsets were beautiful. Glad you had someone to cook for you an you had a great guide. Loved your narration. Thank you
