Thank you for this video; what a great memory. I just returned from Churchill and spent two days with Stanley who works for Leroy. We saw a lot of polar bears and some fox. Sorry for the bears in that the ice hasn't formed yet; it's very late. The females can't get pregnant if they are off the ice for too long and they can't get the seals which they need for fat and proper nutrition. We also took the train one way and loved the experience. By the way, the boats in the museum are kayaks, not canoes. Also we don't use the term Eskimo. These are Indigenous people.
So enjoyed ur comments on ur trip, I lived and worked in Churchill from 1956 till 1979, and still miss the place ,every time I see the Port filmed my place of work for 17 years I tear
@@cigan1 Want to go back? Yes! I can’t say we are planning it yet though. When we do, it will be in the summer for the whales, and hope to catch a few of the bears in the colorful tundra. We have other trips planned for this year and probably next. Maybe 2026 before we get back again
Love this video! In my opinion July is the best time to visit Churchill. The Belugas are amazing and when we go out on the Zodiaks we have always had to steer a polar bear in the water away from town. I stay with a local so I have the best tour guide but you guys had lots of fun. I've been there in every time of year and I've had fun every time! Hope you have an amazing time in August! I've done the 16 hour train ride from Churchill to Thompson and then drove the 8 hours down to Winnipeg. Its an adventure for sure!! I appreciate the tip about buying the sleeper car ticket at the train station! Thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful trip you had. It was wonderful to see the fox I as a Australian (Tasmanian) always imagined they would be white. That really fascinated me. I am so happy you were able to experience the Northen Lights, one of my dreams. I have chased and captured the Southern Lights a lot, unfortunatley missing the biggest show in over 20 years. It is an amazing experience. How did you stop your camera from freezing in such cold conditions. That is something I have wondered. You guys have a charming manner, I do have an issue with most youtubers that music playing when you are talking makes it hard for anyone with hearing issues to hear your speaking.
Thank you so much for your comment. Appreciate the feedback RE: background music. Something for us to keep in mind for sure. The hardest part in cold is to keep the battery charged. In extreme colds it looses power very quickly I mean in minutes. So external power source would be required.
@@cigan1 thank you so much. I also noted that you were cold on the snowmobile ride, as a person who does not have snow in winter what clothing and boots would be most suitable... thanks so much
@@tazziegee8479 usually cloths have weather rating. There are plenty of options out there. I like Vollebak gear. For footwear there is a Canadian brand called Baffin. You can’t really go wrong with that. Plus heavy wool socks. That should do it. One thing I wish I had was eye googles. Next time…
Wow, amazing vlog! 🎉 inspirational!
