The Extraordinary Salish Sea
The Salish Sea has it all: mountains and volcanoes, cactus and rainforests, over 400 islands, waters sheltered from ocean storms, an extravagant biodiversity from orcas to eelgrass, a rich history of Coast Salish peoples, and today - nine million people. It's EXTRAORDINARY!! So, let's stand up for it!

Tasli Shaw (Salishseahumpbacks.com) and Jackie Hildering (Marine Education & Research Society) and have identified the three whales as: ‘Telson’, ‘Smoke’, and a calf of the whale ‘Ghost’ based on the patterns on the underside of their flukes. All the whales are young, with ‘Smoke’ a 3yr old and the calf a 2 year old. It’s striking how the three swim together, close by and in concert, and Tasli ...

HERRING: Why Kill the Foundation of the Salish Sea?
Well done, Bob. The beautiful video and thoughtful script combine to create a powerful impression of an under-recognized, underappreciated ecosystem.
Wow! What an amazing adventure! Ive dreamed about doing this for many years now
Wonderful video!
This is super special. Thank you for sharing!
thank you for your beautiful film and very effective educational content Bob - you are a treasure just like the environment you describe:)
A friend and I canoed the Nahanni from Glacier lake to the falls in 85.We had no white water experience,I was 18yrs old, and capsized on a bend over a rock before Rabbit kettle.I thought twice about continuing on after the falls and without a spray skirt.That river spooked the hell out of me.
As a Hornby Island summer resident based in Vancouver I deeply appreciate the effort you put into making this film. It's delightful and delicate, informative, beautiful and poignant.
Another gorgeous achievement in filmmaking! Thank you for caring so much about this precious region where we live. ❤
Benji gives this wonderful video two thumbs up! Thanks for creating the awareness of this jewel of the Pacific Northwest ❤
How beautifully captured! I absolutely love our humpbacks in the Salish sea and love watching them. Thanks for taking the effort to kindle passion and respect for the whales :)
Great photography, great advocacy, helpful maps - finally not a presentation that stops at national boundaries! Thank you for caring, we'll spread the word.
Yes.."what a gift"... thank-you
About my third or fourth time watching
Awesome video Bob. 👍👍Thank you.
Absolutely touched... I want to be a salmon....
you might enjoy the music video of my 2023 Nahanni trip: ruclips.net/video/EL2_2JmaxVg/видео.html
Nice video, informative. Pro tip: watch at 1.75x to save time and still be able to understand it.
Bob, if you don't mind sharing, what are those sunglasses you're wearing and do you recommend them for kayaking?
Nice video Bob! Great to see you again in Owl Creek! Steve
Absolutely majestic ❤
It was great to meet you today Bob, thanks for sharing this with me 🙏☺️ - Lily
Bob, I hope you realize what a wonderful trip this was. I couldn't imagine taking such a large group of friends into such a desolate place. Thank you for this story.
Hi again, Jim, I see that you live right across from us on Bowen Island! If you don’t mind, could you please tell us the best underwater camera brand /model that you know of? We are new to kayaking and really want to try this out. Thank you!
Hi Bob, could you please tell me what kind of underwater camera you have as I would like to buy one. Also, are you able to share where this video was taken? We live near Lighthouse Park and want to know how far away this particular area is so that maybe we can kayak to it one day thanks!
Simply beautiful. We need to see these videos so very much . Thank you.
As someone who used to visit the San juan islands every summer, I love your videos on the Pacific Northwest. Excellent quality. Makes me wanna visit again sooner.
This is beautiful, I wanna go to nahanni sometime but I'm a little bit scared
You do good work, man. I enjoy your content. Keep it up.
Great to meet you at the Coast Mountain Film Festival! What a wonderful film!! Truly inspiring! I subscribed! Looking forward to connecting again soon! Cheers, Jon.
Thank you for sharing this amazing journey with us. This film should win awards from the National Film Board of Canada!
Thankyou from the bottom of my heart for sharing our Beautiful British Columbia with us! What a truly magical place you have shown us! Loved every minute of it, and will let my children watch this as well!
Amazing stuff Bob, you gave me inspiration to buy a wet suit and get in the Salish Sea! Can’t wait to explore Vancouver Island from Seattle, looks incredible. Keep up the fantastic content!
I've never been on the West Coast Trail, but all of that geography, including the underwater photography is all very familiar to me here on Vancouver Island. Great video.
Thank you Bob for this wonderful story telling, images, and visions of what's possible in and with family and friends!
Thanks for making the effort to put together this movie. Really enjoyed it. I spent a month helping survey glaciers in Norway in 1974. Definitely one of my most memorable experiences.
What a wonderful film Bob! I remember when you did this trip and hearing about it…but seeing this footage was a real gift. Thanks for doing this (and so great to see your Dad … well remembered!).
Love this Bob!
Wow, even flying through Churchill to Yellowknife was a pretty 1974 adventure!
The ‘shine’ of Uncle Jay’s smile after Figure 8 Rapids is magical. What a trip. I can feel the awe of the canyons, one millionth of the awe of being in it. Thank you Bob for this beautiful trip/gift.
Thank you so much for this wonderful film. I paddled the Nahanni in 2002. Your film brought back many wonderful memories. I’m grateful to have had that experience and to you for sharing yours.
what a wonderful adventure! So fortunate to have such adventurous parents to inspire and lead you! And to have the foresight to keep a good photo journal!
I really enjoyed this journey into the wilderness. Learned about a place I never knew about and now I wish I could visit. Outstanding!
24:05 wait…wut? Headless bodies what? Edit: just looked into it. Seems nobody knows for sure what happened but the were out looking for gold so….greed can make people do nasty things.
I cannot describe how much I appreciate this documentary. My soul aches because I wasn’t there with you guys. It seems like a dream. The photographer and videographer are priceless here. I’m in love with a trip I’ve only heard about a few min ago. I need to do this.
A guy (Malcolm Thomas) that helped me with my canoeing skills, went missing on the Nahanni around '76. Always wanted to do a trip down the river, great video, brings back a lot of memories. Thank you.
wow
what a beautiful heartwarming video! Im born 1974 so gona be 50 this year...bushlife, hiking, fishing has been a life long interest since my father started to take me to the forest for fishing since i was 5.
The John Butler background song fits this adventure perfectly.
30 minutes very well spent!
Thanks so much for sharing, incredible to see. You gotta check this out @JimBairdAdventurer, @NorthernScavenger & @JustinBarbournlexplorer !!
Wow. What a glorious adventure. I'd never even heard about Virginia Falls or the Mackenzie Mountains. Or the Nahanni River. Your dad seemed like a great guy. Thanks a lot for this little gem.
