I want to give a big shout-out to all the volunteers who have kept this cabin (and other NS cabins) alive with all their hard work and dedication over the years. If it wasn't for them, these places would have rotted into the ground years ago. Thank you!!! 🙏
Do you think a reasonably healthy and fit 58 yr old male with virtually the same gear as you be able to successfully embark and succeed at this venture?
When you go to these cabins do you have any idea if someone is arriving at the same time or do you “reserve” it? How does that work?
Seriously though. Its extremely heart warming.
WOW !! In Deed What An Amazing Great Canadian Journey !!!
I Truly Felt Them Deep Pleasant Nature Vibes Throughout You're Great Video
and as Well Ever So Personaly Felt To The Very Point Within My Own Hearts Spirit Like As If I Was Right There Every Foot Step And Paddle Along You're Way !!!
Thank You For The Inspiration Well Captured As This Will Be Thought Of When I Set Off On A Simular Great Jouney Once Again Of My Own
I Have Travel Thoughout Algonquin Pronvcial Park In Previous Years
Its Been A couple Decades Sense My Last Trip But I Think Its Being Long Overdue As About Time I Made My Pathway Back
While I Still Have The Oppertunity Of Time And The Strenght To Pull It Off One More Time !!!!
@@nathanbailey1593 As stated from the Cofan cabin website "Due to the Tobeatic’s true wilderness nature and relatively low use, there is no requirement to book the cabin. If it’s empty, you’re in luck; if it’s occupied, you may still be in luck as travelers through the Tobeatic are often more than willing to share." I know that in the past episodes of some of the cabins that Noah has gone too, he has had to book and reserve them well in advance of his trips.
I'm old and can't get out in the woods anymore, so I watch others do it for me. Your trip was just beautiful!
Me too. I can only go where my walker can take me & for short distances. We are blessed to go with him vicariously! My dad was such an outdoorsman, and I loved that way of life. Every time I see a river or lake I want to wet a line. I miss fresh rainbow trout for breakfast. 😋
🙏🙏
A red canoe in the Canadian wilderness. Iconic.
and no bear spray...
This brings me back to my youth when I travelled through Nova Scotia with only a backpack and sleeping bag and small tent. I am 66 now and this reminds me of my adventures there. Beautiful country.
Your story. I would be very interested in hearing about it.
@@user-kvnMNme too.
Thanks for taking us along on your wonderful 4 day excursion. It was beautiful & rugged. The cabin was well cared for (respectful visitors). I live vicariously with videos like this because I'm way to old to go out physically. Still love to see the woods and critters & especially the little birds. God bless.....😊❤ P.S. YOUR VIDEO WAS A REAL TREAT!
Red sky at night, sailor's delight.
Red sky at morning, sailors take warning...
A little ditty I learned as a youngster.
I still follow that rule, lol
So glad that I live in beautiful Nova Scotia
Same here!
PEI here, any sasquatch stories?
@@canadianmmaguy7511No,I grew up in NS
@@ceciliacrocker390 in the city or a rural area
@@canadianmmaguy7511 Rural, and I have hike many areas of NS...
We were at the cabin on Oct 1st. Wild to see there were seemingly 3 other log entries after ours. I took a picture of the Northern Scavenger sticker on the wall.
Also very enjoyable to see those portages again while they are still fresh in my memory. Thanks for the video!
Wow, now THAT is a small world J Gallant. I guess because I'm in Halifax, Nova Scotia, TH-cam sends me video's from my area, but it's nice to see ones like this, the last few I got from TH-cam is people turning on their dashcams, driving from Halifax to Yarmouth nonstop with no talking ... like watching grass grow.
"I'M JUST GONNA GRIND THIS OUT" WITH 16 DIFFERENT CAMERA ANGLES, LOLOL THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORT!
😂
I could never make such a long trip. For one reason at 73 years of age, I'm not up to it anymore. However, even if I were, I would be stopping at every promising piece of water to fish, probably not going more than half a mile a day - lol. Loved your video, especially seeing the black bear and the black capped chickadee's at the cabin.
All the very best to you Robert. I hope all is well.❤️
Long day at work …. Thank you for the peaceful interlude. The scenery, the adventure, the remote cabin - beautiful!
I am from Nova Scotia, and I just found your videos. You do a great job filming. Great adventures. Thank you for sharing.
Nice video. You got my thumbs up when you restocked the wood chest. It shows good character.
Thank you, very enjoyable, greetings from Paradise, NL
Awesome video! Amazing camera work and really enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing - Great trip! I love these Canadian remote woods - incredible streams, rivers, and lakes. And maintained trails and cabins! Kudos to Canadian neighborly decency on display!
Nice canoe trip. Thanks for taking us along.
Hi from mike A from LA.CA. I really enjoyed this video. I haven t watched your channel in a while. I like your voice and narration. Its perfect. Not to high pitched and not low and boring. The scenery and vegetation that you shoot is great. Thanks so much.
Don’t stop Noah!! You are killing it
We're lucky to live in such a beautiful Province. It never ceases to amaze me. I hope to make it to this cabin someday! Been on my list for a while now. Great video.
Well welcome to Nova Scotia, plenty of those cabins around our parts. Always left some food behind for the next visitor in case they had nothing... its part of the NS way, and always sign the log books.
Not only, that you're a great narrator,...but, your experience crisscrossing Canada shows, when all the camera angles you have in your footage... Good stuff to watch,... Very relaxing ! Enjoyed it...👍
Thanks Marc
Nice to see you back again......THANKS for sharing
This is the 2nd cabin video of yours I've watched. I'm digging them.
One of the best camping videos I have come across. Always be happy ,healthy and keep enjoying camping.
You need sunscreen so your nose would not be burned.
Beautiful cabin, peaceful and serene.
What a gorgeous spot. I could live there. Have that little black bear as a pet to cuddle with to keep warm in winter 😉
Take care of your shoulder. I hurt mine several years (decades?) ago, and now I can only go paddling on flat, calm water. So I took up backpacking. I do miss canoe tripping, tho.
Another beautiful video.
It's the simple principle of what we sow is what we reap. Leaving wood and a clean cabin reap that the next time you arrive there. Absolutely stunning scenery.
unbelievable nature... such a beauty!!
Good man. Getting the fire wood in. You just gotta love a packable buck saw!
Wow! I’m so jealous! 😊 thank you for sharing your adventures and my dreams! May god bless!
MEC Get Down booties are heaven for your feet, got a pair just for around the house lol!
I'm one of your silent followers. I thought it was time to thank you for your content and tell you how much I love tagging along on your outdoor adventures. I used to enjoy similar adventures when I was younger. You have a very attractive personality and are so pleasant to be around. You seem like a good soul. Sending much Aloha to you and wishing you Happy Holidays!💚🎄🌈🌺🙋♀️
Thanks so much for the kind words, Sherelyn. Happy holidays to you and yours as well
I really don't know if there's anyone making better videos than you right now! The production quality is so damn amazing. I've really enjoyed watching these after a long day in recent months. Happy trails!
Wow, thank you for the kind words 🙏
Just beautiful. Nova Scotia is incredible.
Nate
Thanks for taking us along on your adventure to the lands my ancestors arrived at from Britain many years ago. I especially loved the misty morning scenes, the firewood chopping session edits and the care you took to leave places nice for others.
You seem to forget what the Brits did to the Acadian French after they arrived.
Beautiful! Thanks for taking us along!
As usual, this was wonderful Noah. Thank you ❤.
Without a doubt, I am living vicariously through your videos Noah, so many wonderful adventures.
Thank you for taking us along with you, and giving us a chance to experience all of this, even if only through the screen! ♥️
DITTO!!!
This is the first time I’ve watched you. What a very interesting trip. It’s the best time I’ve had watching someone in a long time. I know it was hard work for you but I really enjoyed it. I’m surprised you didn’t stay a little longer. What a nice place to spend some time. Beautiful scenery for sure..I’m glad I found your channel. Thanks for letting me join you. It was fun. You have a safe trip where ever you go. This grandmother enjoyed it…. A lot.🙋🏻♀️🙏🩵
Thank you, Joann
Absolutely sweet, Noah! TY💖
Just excellent. One of the top 3 NS based videos. Plus the videography constantly improves. Thanks!
Nice, always good to bring some quality equipment along!
Thank you!
I've been to Nova Scotia . I slept on a ferry boat and loved it!
Beautiful photography and all round coverage. Thanks

My Home Country.Its a Beautiful Country.Thank you for Sharing.I can't travel to these places ,so It's Awesome People like you who share your experiences ,give people like me joy seeing different places .Thank You.Safe Travels and God Bless.🤗
Thanks for the beautiful photography, you caught some really nice views.
자연속에서 사람들이 많이 와서
누렸으며 좋겠다 같이
삶이 멋지네요 🎉축복합니다 😊
Such a beautiful landscape caught by your drone. I love the red punctuation of your canoe in some of the shots. And the still mornings and that wonderful campsite and remote cabin with your added ethic of leaving the place better than you found it - all just the most wonderful to watch and experience thru you. Thank you, Noah. I love your adventures and travels so much - both solo and in a group.
Thank you, Bridget :)
Your photography work is wonderful.
I absolutely loved this video I felt like I was right there…the scenery was gorgeous too
Thank you Noah . great video
Nova Scotian channel gotta love it
Absolutely Awesome video. Thank you. Sending love and prayers from Georgia USA 🇺🇸 ❤😊
This was a fantastic video! I was mesmerized. Loved the scenery, sounds and your unbridled enthusiasm. I felt like I was in the wilderness again from my youth. Well done young man..🤩🤩
Much love to folks who do look out for next visitor. Please continue and I will too.
Keji is definitely my happy place! Thanks for sharing!
Your video just popped up
Very good, I'm originally from Nova Scotia
Man I really enjoyed you first camp site, a beautiful place and the camp was just perfect… well done Noah
Great video, such a beautiful area. Thanks so much for letting us tag along.
Thanks Jim
Sweet!
Awesome, thanks for taking us along.
I first came across that cabin back in the late 80s. Pretty special spot. Do the walk up to culling rock from there. Definitely worth the slog.
Great video. Brings back lots of memories - been a few years since I’ve been in there.
Thanks to the amazing volunteers who have helped keep the cabin in such great shape, including the big renovation a few years back.
💚💚
I envy you! Nova Scotia is such a beautiful province. I have had the pleasure of visiting it many times.
Wonderful fall colors, great image quality too. Thanks for sharing with us
Just a simple suggestion for you. When you're trying to split wood and it won't stay up right. Take a stick in your off hand and use that to hold the wood upright and stable. This will allow you to hit the wood with your axe hard enough to set the axe, but not endanger yourself. Commonly referred to as a "Sissy Stick", but I like to think of it as a "Safety Stick". Great video so far. Now if you will excuse me, I have to get back to it so I can finish watching.
Thanks for that
Great suggestion. Cheers
Also, there may have been a reason but splitting on a rock isn’t great because if you miss or just go through the wood you hit the rock and dull the blade. Much better to just do on the ground no?
@@NorthernScavengerI feel sorry for your hatchet, great way to destroy the edge, not smart at all.
This was my first NS video and I truly enjoyed watching it. Never been to Nova Scotia but your trip reminded me of some canoe camping trips in BWCA and QPP when I was half as old as I am now. Just beautiful. Excellent videography too! Your sense of responsibility, great respect for nature and others who came before you and those who will come after is easily apparent and very much appreciated. Well done and thank you!
i guess you could say im a local, even from our main "city" these views are plentiful about 10 minutes in any direction
Nice job!
I recently did a (failed) trip to Magnetawan in Ontario and after a 2.3km portage in the dark, we ended at a small shack that had been used since the 1930's. It was amazing to stay there for two nights. Left some wood, fishing tackle and hot sauce lol
Someone is going to find that hot sauce and be stoked lol
What a wonderful video and story. Thank you for doing AND sharing.
Enjoyed this video very much. I live in SW Nova and many folks are unaware of the number of lakes and the remoteness of the province. Thanks again for a great video.
Your video is very relaxing for the soul. I'm a kayaker/camper and find being in nature is the best medicine ever. Very cool channel.
Really peaty looking water, like our rivers in Scotland.
Now that is a trip that uses up quite a bit of energy. I love the fact that you were the only one within miles; peace and quiet, even the bear wasn't making any noise or bothering you. Nice video. Enjoyed it very much. Thanks.
Your shelter was cool indeed. It was "portageurs's style". Two things here. When splitting the small logs (at the start of the video), use a small stick to hold the log. It makes things easier and safer. And the small cowbell..get rid of that. It was proven that those bells attarcts young bears. And who's following? Big Mama bear... (there's a video from NOLS talking about that). Other than that, it was a very nice video and you made me smile. Well done. I'm subscribing right now.
P.S. The "animal" was a sleeping Sasquash.
Noah , love your trips, stay close with Esquif. Their US guy is big supporter!
i was fishing in nakina, ontario once. every time i would go to this lake i would see the same bear sitting about 40 yards from the road. he was just watching the cars go by. he was a young cinnamon color black bear, about half grown.
Maybe Santa will bring you a double bladed paddle suitable for a solo canoe! Love the vids, keep 'em coming!
20:57. Spectacular shot. Should be a painting.
cool.
Beautiful scenery and a happy camper. Great combo. Cheers from sunny Florida, eh!
Loved the Autumn orange colours and that dehydrated Shepherd's Pie supper and will have to try. Very enjoyable video!👍
The log book is like a comment section but way cooler. Thank you for sharing.
Really enjoyable video
Nice video, & thank you for using a 4K camera.. some people don’t and I can’t understand , it really shows the beauty of the area you’re in
When I'm out in the wild, I always try and find a big rock to chop wood on as well.
Noah! I've recently just discovered your channel in the last few weeks and I am thoroughly enjoying seeing the East coast through your eyes, and your lens. I have an obsession with the East Coast thanks to the many stories I've read by former Cape Breton Island resident, the late Farley Mowat... Although, I've never had a chance to visit the East coast yet! Your adventures out that way sure are inspiring for me. Thank you for gracing all of us in the TH-cam world with your presence, your adventures, and the beautiful content your making... I can't even imagine the work that goes into all of it!
Sweet!! Take me there RIGHT NOW please!!
same :)
You'll have to leave the giant lake trout of NWT :)
@@NorthernScavenger Leaving = Saving Sore Fish Lips 😆
I know TH-cam and Your channel is the best it'll really take off soon!
Awesome adventure. I'm truly impressed at the state of most all the cabins. Especially with the weather NS gets over the years.
Thanks, Noah! I enjoy watching your canoe trips. I especially like the geological information that you provide.
Thank you so much for taking us along. Your filming is spectacular. A lot of hard work and so many shots where you had to set up in difficult circumstances. You made the firewood look easy! I know nothing was easy. Thank you also for not needing to talk all the time. You are personable, enjoyable to listen to and you have a lot of knowledge. I appreciate you sharing.
Nice to see this spot again i haven't been there or a few years thanks Noah
What a cool adventure. I love this sort of content, as it is far from the realms of what I have at my disposal here in the UK. Amazing to be able to see what the world has to offer ad inspire future trips for myself and others
What an awesome trip! Thanks for taking us along.
Well this Novs Scotia born girl knows the area you are traveling through...😉 Thanks for the adventure. ❤
I thought the cabin looked familiar. I think you were there with a few of the guys. That too was a great video. Thanks for the distraction Noah, going to be a long winter. Looking forward to getting back out in the spring!
Thanks for sharing Noah! Really makes me homesick watching you paddle Nova Scotia!
That trip is worth it. Re: Mason's Cabin. The one and only time we stayed there it was disgusting. The previous party used it as a human barn apparently. Way better off in a crude lean to. I'd like to spend a night in one of the sky dome cabins at Kedge but sadly that won't likely happen any time soon.
Thanks for posting. It reminds me of my dearly departed family member, a professional guide for life. Rest in peace.
Beautiful wilderness cabin and a fine video. I enjoyed this film very much.
