    How does Chris only have 35,000 subscribers? This is one of the best Overland series. Great stories, personal interest, amazing locations and his editing skills are 2nd to none. He should see if PBS would sponsor a show with his adventures!

    Thank you for continuing to bring us along on your adventures.

    Your 9 mile trail, probably was about 11 or 12 miles due to all your back and forth camera shoots. That's a LOT of work. Thanks for a beautiful video!

    It's really rare that I'll watch even half of a 30 minute video. But I always watch yours front to back. Very well done. I've done a bit of that camera chasing/forwarding that you do and it's a lot of work. You put a lot of effort into these and it shows. And no Patraeon (sp) begging....that's just icing on the cake. Thanks for taking us along! I greatly enjoy your efforts!

      Yes … glad that NFLD became part of Canada in 1949. Just after WW1, the Canadian government was anticipating NFLD coming on board. The Turks & Caicos have lobbied the Canadian government several times to become part of Canada too; unlikely to happen though.

    Chris
    Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your videos. As a couple my wife and I take our camper and Jeep and go to places like the ones you are visiting. Of course we can’t disperse camp into the tight places you get, but we get away as far as we can to find pure natural locales and the sound of the earth without the noise of people and their trapping of civilization. We look forward to your videos each week. Especially appreciated are several things. 1) Limited talk and the real sounds of off-roading. 2) No music (that many videographers mistakenly think enhances their work) 3) Good camera work without shakiness (the bane of modern movies) 4) A photographer’s eye - your choice of spots shows your compositional skills. Flowers to majestic sunsets. 5) Your obvious love for the outdoors and appreciation for people. Nice guys can do well in this world.
    Keep up the good work.

    I wouldn't worry about your paint job is just written in memory on your vehicle. I had a good friend go to Canada for moose hunting and he had a full-size truck with a camper he also came home with plenty of scratches due to narrow trails. Thanks for the great adventure because of my disability I would never be able to see this stuff otherwise. Exploring is so great and did much of it as a Boy Scout and with my grandparents who had an RV.

    Oh … lucky you! Timed it just right to find the 2 weeks of good weather in Newfoundland. ;-)
    Twillingate, Gros Morne & King's Point were the highlights when I was there, back in 2015. At King's Point, I was fortunate to see an ice berg that came right down to the fishing village. I woke up with a view of it from my RV. I also took my kayak for a spin, from a beach at Twillingate - that was fun. Cheers, Steve

      You can drive up to the Arctic Ocean via the Northwest Territories but that would need to be a future endeavour for Chris (he's in the wrong part of the country, at the moment).
