Thank you so much, Ted & Jim, for your tribute to the lost generations of 'Residential School Children' in Canada. It's an important topic that History would probably prefer forgotten, so good-on-you-guys for highlighting this colonial, political interference in your beautiful country. I think lots of folks will really appreciate you guys for this tribute, I certainly did (as a UK writer). Great content.
What a wonderful recap of the beginning half of the 25 days across Northern Manitoba Wild. I love the scenery, the gorgeous sunsets, seeing the Moose, the Bison, the Bears, & hearing about Teddy's cute little bunnies. hehe They are wildlife too. The fish are plentiful catching left & right, & could just about jump right in the boat without a Lure. Jim your narration is superb, somewhat with poeticness. Turning canoes into a Catamaran to safely straddle the raging rapids. Portaging through swampy lands, thick brush, mosquitos, up over hills, to get to a calmer place on the river. The tranquility 2 Brothers are blessed to enjoy, & share with me. Thank you Jim (& Ted)! Look forward to more of this adventure across Manitoba.
Hey all, this video is a little recap on what’s happened so far during this 25 day expedition across Northern Manitoba. Stay tuned for the next 12 + episodes include the ep. 13 that’s dropping Sunday.
I get excited when i see a new video from you or your Brothers channel. I think its because i love the type of adventure you guys bring and maybe i see a little bit of me in you guys when i was your age. Don't get me wrong , i was never a big canoe trip guy. My friends always told me i was too slow and always lagged way behind. I don't know why , all i had was my 16 ft ceder strip and my big steel cooler that held 64 cans of ice cold beer.🍺😁👏💪
Lovely to see so much forestry still left on our planet. You guys are so blessed to drive through these awesome places and paddle in the wild of the Manitoba Wilderness, and catching fish as well another blessing.. Shalom and love from over the pond in Cape Town in South Africa 🇿🇦
You guys are living a "blessed" adventurous life! I love your passion for the land and water of this awesome country! Your can do attitude is truly Canadian. YEAHHHH!!
OMG l’d forgotten about the things y’all went through at the beginning of that trip, but I never doubted you making it happen one bit. Thanks Jim and Ted for this recap. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯
Jim always wanted to go to Canada, but here I am 64 disabled know I'll never make it and when I watch I'm there with you, keep em coming, watching from NC USA.
Wow!! Amazing brother. Beautiful video in an beautiful country. Big respect for all the hard work you guys put in to the video’s and filming. Stay safe buddy 👍🏕🔥🍻
37:45 it's all downhill from here, when we were kids, getting stuck in the muck was a blast, getting your boots back, not so much. Ted was in the Zen Zone with the walleye, He smiled as you got the bagel. 1:12 that's def a sweet stringer of wally's, heat up the pan. Did you say limited out? Off to the IGA for some fish to fry, great video all the high lites. THANKS
Jim your archeological tin cans,you know the ones from Canada Packers, what happened they are the same ones as on your trip to the Yukon. I spent years flying in the North looking down at the country you river travel and portage on. I always wanted to travel the rivers. But Father Time has caught up with me. Keep up your adventures and do keep sharing them. Father Time will eventually get you too but enjoy while you can!
I can remember as a kid in the 60’s / 70’s the tins of various seafood with the metal key. Kind of cool but also a pain in the ass and a lot of sharp metal to get cut on:)
I personally bought the 21 because it fit better in my pack and more of my packs. I also found the 21 to be sufficient for the size of dead fall i was using it on, certainly wouldn't need any bigger for firewood. The 21' fits inside the length of my 45 litre pack with a roll-top , the 24' would not.
I lived in Thompson and Leaf Rapids and Lynn Lake and I know about the bog and mosquitoes and very tiny no see am flies ( they bite like crazy ), so I was keen to follow your adventures. But would never do that 😉. But I did grow to really love the north country. We had -50 quite a few times.
Very cool that you loved up there. It would have been neat to continue down the road past Leaf to check out Lynn Lake. Maybe next time. -50 so cold, wow. The coldest I’ve ever been in is -40 without the wind chill.
Dang, I love pickerel from clean northern lakes and rivers! 2nd only to perch for me (over $60/lb IF you can find it!). No luck finding your (and Doug Linker's) Fish Crisp here in the States :o(
Eventually though it will take some editing down as it is looking like it would be over the YT max allowable length. I'll do that once I get the entire series edited.
I meant to ask this earlier but where are you storing your food at night? Any concerns for bears? Haven't seen any footage of that so I was curious. Great series
A couple times I’ve shown myself retrieving a food barrel from back in the woods at night. We usually walk it a ways back into the Bush from camp and leave it on the ground.
@@JimBairdAdventurer hey Jim, it turns out I was totally messed up on the video watching and commenting on. Awesome video but please ignore comment. Don’t drink and TH-cam
Hey, ya it went up right after this. If you read the title of this video it says best of episodes 1 to 12. I put it out as a special episode after making it half way though the trip!
Ya, there are no ticks this far north. Even where I am, much farther noth in Ontario it's too far north for them. You hear about the odd one but I've never seen one. They are nasty buggers, and they're starting to move further north too.
@@JimBairdAdventurer nice no ticks makes things a little less worrisome. here in Colorado I've had them fall on to me from trees when the wind blew ,there are a lot in some places. But I have been fishing in Alaska know how bad the flies, mosquitoes and no-see-ums can be
Tell me you didn’t need a blood transfusion after Manitoba I think season 7 and you lie LOL I never saw so many mosquitoes on one person’s body….. EVER love what you are doing and your brothers a winer 😂😂
Gotta be honest, with such a long series being shown on two channels, is this recap really necessary? It's already taking far too long to see how this journey turned out.
It’s supposed to just be more of a high lite reel now that we’re past the half way point of the series. I’m going to have several more episode coming out on this and it’ll be the Seal River proper which is spectacular.
Thank you so much, Ted & Jim, for your tribute to the lost generations of 'Residential School Children' in Canada.

Thanks very much and I’m glad you liked that part. I hope it does help in someway to spread awareness.
Jim you have a gift in cinema-photography….and dialogue…Ted as well
Holy shit...that lightening was killer. I love how real ur videos are, makes you feel like u r there!!
Big thanks! Ya, that was easily one of the craziest lightning bolts I’ve ever seen.
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!👍🏼
In my culture we’ve learned to pay tribute to the local history and honor what has been before us.
👍

As a young man I grew up in Melvin Lake where your trip began brought back lots of memories thanks for sharing
Thanks a lot for sharing that. We’re you there in winter or summer mostly?
So exciting to watch ! Honest to God, I don't know how you guys do it. Ty for posting .
Loved the recap, looking forward to the rest.
Man I couldn’t relate to enough of where this is. Born and beeb to these places many times glad you two brothers got to experience this 👍
Awesome
A incredible summary of an absolutely epic trip! Thanks for sharing with us all!
Fantastic scenery's
Clever lad with the seat repair.

Anticipating the rest of the Adventure
Awesome trip you captured.
Come on Jimbo I'm gagging to see the end of this trip......aaaaargh.
I’ll probably go to like ep. 24
OMG it’s bedtime, but i’m gonna force myself to watch this🥴

I spent years flying in the North looking down at the country you river travel and portage on. I always wanted to travel the rivers. But Father Time has caught up with me.

Time does march on and I will do. Sounds like you've had an epic life as a bush pilot however and it's one I envy too.
Perfect. Something to watch tonight.
What an amazing trip you two had has me day dreaming of doing my own big trip ty for sharing brother!
Hope you do a big trip yourself
I got here late...Dammit! but I was number 8 my favorite number!
Very cool, great adventure and video 👍🏻
Thanks
Maybe after watching this i will be be falling fast asleep.
I can remember as a kid in the 60’s / 70’s the tins of various seafood with the metal key. Kind of cool but also a pain in the ass and a lot of sharp metal to get cut on:)
What a hard trip! Nice recap. Thanks
You’re welcome! Thanks for tuning in.
Thanks for the recap!
No prob
MONSTER PIKE!!!!!!
@23:00 Fill that void with expanding foam. Aerosol plasti dip is great on the fly, seals cracks.
Hey Jim, what an amazing trip. Loved watching it with my kids. Are you posting a recap of the last 13 days of trip? aswell?
Once I get there I will and then I’ll also re-edit it into a single full documentary covering the whole trip.
Legendary 💯🔥
Epic
Amazing trip were u nor scared of alligator in the water 😍
Hey Jim. Why the 21’ saw instead of the 24’? Wouldnt the bigger saw be more versatile? I am going to buy one. I just would like your input. Thanks
I personally bought the 21 because it fit better in my pack and more of my packs. I also found the 21 to be sufficient for the size of dead fall i was using it on, certainly wouldn't need any bigger for firewood. The 21' fits inside the length of my 45 litre pack with a roll-top , the 24' would not.
Yea, i thought it over, and went for the 21’. Thanks for the input. If it is good enough for The Adventurer…lol
I have both, I use the 24” in winter and the 21” in summer but ya, prob get a 24” if it’s one or the other, unless you’re backpacking.
I lived in Thompson and Leaf Rapids and Lynn Lake and I know about the bog and mosquitoes and very tiny no see am flies ( they bite like crazy ), so I was keen to follow your adventures. But would never do that 😉. But I did grow to really love the north country. We had -50 quite a few times.

Armand Zottola: I’m sure I’d get lost…never be found…food for those lynx!
I can't believe the great bungling speech didn't make the best of.
Ha! Good point
Dang, I love pickerel from clean northern lakes and rivers! 2nd only to perch for me (over $60/lb IF you can find it!). No luck finding your (and Doug Linker's) Fish Crisp here in the States :o(
Is that white perch you're talking about or the yellow and green striped ones?
8-foot wingspans on those eagles, and babies are even bigger once they are allowed to leave! They get the white heads at age 5.
Amazing, I didn't realize it took them so long to become mature but ya, I've seen some large immature balds before that look like Goldens.
Marvel watchin this vid. Can't imagine going on this trip. Got the agawa boreal saw last year. Highly recommend!
Thanks, ya, it's an awesome saw!
Amazing. What were you reading from at the beginning of this vid? About 3.5 minutes in. It sounded incredible and i would love to read the rest.
sasquatch said he had a jim baird sighting in manitoba,said he had red man like hair!
Will you be uploading a complete version with all parts?
Eventually though it will take some editing down as it is looking like it would be over the YT max allowable length. I'll do that once I get the entire series edited.
Nice edit ✌️
Thanks
When you are on these epic long trips do you never get fed up eating fish.
Surprisingly no.
Hello, there is an island area, look, the water is very fast, are there any crocodiles there? ...
No, this is in northern Canada which sees winters with temps as low as -50
Love your adventures. Thought my buddy’s and I got out there but you’re way beyond what we did. Do you eat more than just fish?
It appears the pain may have outweighed the fun and this one. Fried walleye with a side of mosquito and black fly!
That’s the kind of fun that’s fun afterwards haha, yup, that fish was superb!
I meant to ask this earlier but where are you storing your food at night? Any concerns for bears? Haven't seen any footage of that so I was curious. Great series

@@JimBairdAdventurer this makes sense and was my guess.
And I get aggravated when my door screen gets a hole in it!! God forbid we get bit by a mosquito!!
Haha
How long was the paddle from canoe to otter slide? Looking to make that trip this summer.
Nice, ha you should go for it. What do you mean from canoe to otter slide?
@@JimBairdAdventurer hey Jim, it turns out I was totally messed up on the video watching and commenting on. Awesome video but please ignore comment. Don’t drink and TH-cam
There was a moment @48:25 lol
👍👍
The pélican the pelican his mouth holds more than his belly can 🎵
I know that one!! Strangest of burden is the pelican, his beak can hold more than his bellycan
I am so confused now. Waiting for the latest episode?
Hey, ya it went up right after this. If you read the title of this video it says best of episodes 1 to 12. I put it out as a special episode after making it half way though the trip!
do you guys run into massive ticks up there?
Too far north for ticks.
Ya, there are no ticks this far north. Even where I am, much farther noth in Ontario it's too far north for them. You hear about the odd one but I've never seen one. They are nasty buggers, and they're starting to move further north too.
