V7E10: The Allure of Nova Scotia

  • This week, I travel throughout western Nova Scotia, to enjoy coastal communities, local fare, and to wander in search of primitive roads. Time in the kayak is inevitable, as I happen upon numerous secluded lakes. I also enjoy some hiking and camping at Kejimkujik, and finally fix the troublesome sway-bar on the Jeep.

    Chris - on the weekends that I have my daughter, (she’s 6 years old) - we like to watch your channel. It’s become a Friday night favorite. She calls you the Orange Jeep Guy! We feel like we are on the adventure with you. We both enjoy it very much. Please keep them coming brother. Take care.

    My wife and I really enjoy your videos Chris. Thanks for not adding cheezy music and keeping it always G rated. Kind of rare these days. I was side lined myself six years ago due to a back injury. These videos allow us to enjoy something we'd love to do but aren't able to through your eyes. Your way of overlanding is just the way I'd want to do it. Be safe and seek healthy menu ideas from Marko - San Diego Jeep Club ; )

    Hands down a must see video every week. Nothing I watch on any media is so anticipated, absolutely the best commentary (No B.S. or amateur comedy), video quality, sound, scenic locations anywhere. Can't say enough how your videos inspire people to get out and do ! Love that Jeep as well even though I am a Land Rover guy. Never stop the seeking, you have no idea the impact you may make in people's lives that don't have the ability to do what you do.

    If you get up to Cape Breton Island and the Cabot Trail make sure that you drive way north to Meat Cove. You need to spend more time along the coast visiting the little fishing villages. You have been seeing areas that look just like inland Maine or New Brunswick or northern Ontario or the UP of Michigan. Hit the coastline! Fun watching you.

    Dude! Small world! I lived in Gilbertsville and ate at the Jukebox often. I sold my small farm there to buy land in Maine and just got back to New Hanover for some med checks . I wander the north of Maine and used to go into NB and Quebec often . Love your videos and set up. Was watching cause I just got back this week and already miss it and my good Maine friends. Was dying you were at some nice possible holes for trout and you don't pull out a reel! Still love your videos anyway. I will put in a word for you at the Jukebox. I am planning a trip to NS next summer from Sherman Maine , my camp. I have a frontier and a teardrop so I can't go to rough but we leave the camper at the cabin and do lots of 4W thru the woods on the spy for trout holes.

    I've lived in Nova Scotia a few times over the years and actually had the pleasure of traveling all over the southern end when working for Fisheries & Oceans - Small Craft Harbors doing structure inspections on wharves & skidways. There is a good reason why many people visit & revisit & then stay in Nova Scotia. Great video.

    @juanitasullivan3372 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just found your channel. Great video of Nova Scotia. I was born here, adopted and taken to the US. I moved back forever in 2008. I can tell you why you were the only one at the beach location and why you got a spot at Keji. The ferry that runs from Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, (where I am) to Maine, is not running this summer. That's due to a change of ports on the Maine side from Portland back to Bar Harbor. Updates to the Bar Harbor terminal need to be done before the ferry can sail from here to there. So the number of tourists is very low this year. So you came at a good time to find super spots to camp. Normally you need reservations for Keji way ahead of time. Will check your channel for your visit to Newfoundland. Look out for those humungous moose there lol.

    Yes! Newfoundland!!!! I heard the words "Newfoundland" and "I have to catch a ferry". I have goosebumps now. Be careful driving at night on the highway. The moose are the size of woolly mammoths. Table Mountains are epic and Gros Morne is on most Bucket lists. With the Jeep, who knows what ye will find. Check out the Fogo Island Inn via internet - especially the artist retreats. Good luck and Godspeed.

I did a road trip from Montreal back in winter of 2016, up to Quebec then across the St.Lawrence into New Brunswick, PEI, Cape Breton Cabot Trail and then on to NS. Lunenburg was probably the highlight for me and seafood to die for. One day I will do it all again.
