  • I embark on a challenging 10-day, 200km remote wilderness expedition to retrieve the canoe I abandoned at freeze-up in Northern Quebec in 2018. There is a chance that Bears or the harsh northern elements got the best of it...did it survive?
    Come along to find out. (WARNING: Comments may contain SPOILERS)
    It's an adventure of the rarest kind far from civilization!
    As usual, my Cape Shore Water dog Saku is along for the journey.
    Watch the original 2018, 1700km expedition series playlist (6 episodes) to get the full backstory of my abandoned canoe:

What I think are the most genuine I have ever seen through someone else’s eyes and perspective. You are a great inspiration to others in observing, conserving and preserving the beauty that Mother Nature blessed us with. Thank you Mr Barbour. Well done and please keep safe, Saku too!

    Hey my young friend! it's been too long since I've dropped in. It's so cool to see you return were I first watched you doing real adventure.
    I'm sorry to have left Patreon and been gone for almost 2 years. Lots of bad health has overcame my dreams of getting out. The Gazelle tent just sits there mocking me along with all the other gear.
    I had one hip replaced but poor health canceled the next one. I was so depressed when UA-cam promoted your video tonight for the first time in forever. Watching this right now on the big screen tv you made me buy to enjoy watching your amazing adventures. I'll be honest, I'm terminally ill and if I don't get a miracle Im still so grateful for you taking me on your adventures, the ones that really transcend technology to bring me along with you. Your style is un-pretentious and real gritty. You really lifted my spirits tonight. Thanks for that my dear friend. Craig in Illinois

Glad the old canoe was still in good shape and you and Sak had a good trip. This was entertaining as well as cathartic for me. Maybe someday you’ll be able to finish it off, that would be awesome. Thanks for all your hard work for making this video/trip happen and sharing it with us. Bon voyage down the next long trail ahead ‼️

    Incredible journey Justin! I can’t believe you found your canoe, never mind find it in such good condition that it’s useable after the hard seasons it’s endured! Really speaks to the craftsmanship of it!

    Oh my! What a treasure to find! Justin, thank you man for this awesome adventure! I "was with you" when you abandoned that old canoe four years ago, wondering if you would ever get back to get it! And here you are! I'm 55 minutes in so far, here on November the 28th. Going to watch her until the end! Man, you know how to keep an guy's attention!

I'm looking forward to watching this tonight or tomorrow morning. Cheers bud, keep up the good work.
