I kayaked this area many times in the nineties, often for up to a week. The memories of these trips have sustained me thru some difficult times. We rarely saw another person, as the fisheries had pretty much collapsed. The occasional person we saw were scuba divers after sea urchins for the Japanese market. We thrived on shellfish and mackerel. Fires from driftwood with colourful highlights from the salts in the wood. Time has stolen my ability to take these trips, so I rely on folks like the Northern Scavenger. Thank you.
Noah, i believe those droppings are from a porcupine. great vids man to your whole team of friends. i love watching
Noah that was so beautifully filmed and what a feast for the eyes on the ocean floor. Thanks for the mini vacation!
🛶🐟🐠🐡🌲🦔🐿️
Sometimes you’ve got to to leave home to “get” home. Can’t wait to get back to my roots. Keep up the fantastic content. 🙏
Beautiful composition. Thank you!
Hey. I used to work with Jared on some drilling projects. Top guy! Great video!
Noah it is porcupine Scat thank you guy for sharing nice trip 👍 🇺🇸 super nice camera work 👍
THE VERMONTER
Lush views under the water there 😍
Nice, amazing amount of stuff to spot with just a snorkel. Our east coast has so much life, but so many people have no idea.
You could throw on a couple pounds of weight when you go next time. Enough to help you get down without wasting a lot of energy, but not so much that you aren't still buoyant, and don't stick your hand where it might get stuck. I used to love snorkelling.
You are a great story teller Noah.
Awesome drone shots Noah!
Thank you for the great tip about packing up the tent
It seemed counterintuitive to me - stuffing it randomly into a bag would seem to create many more wrinkles than folding it. And putting more pressure on those wrinkles because (I think..) you have to compress it more 'stuffed' vs 'folded' to get it into the bag. These guys are definitely experts. But I've been folding a lightweight tent I use for bike camping for 20 years now, and still no damage. :-)
Beautifully gentle video capturing the sense of the Nova Scotia coast. Loved it, Noah. Thanks.
Thanks, guys. I really enjoyed seeing this beautiful area of Nova Scotia. 🙂👍
Always entertaining,love the use of the canoe on the ocean to the islands,not often you see that mostly kayaks. Great job
I’m used to tropical and SoCal. But this would be really fun. Super clean and a whole different natural setting. Beautiful and serene.
Under water made a memory. So much to see. Thank you ☺️.
Nice pit boys. That’s a beautiful ecosystem down there. Great visibility too. Nice vid!
The drone has been a such a worthwhile investment! Keep it up!
The flounder got me really excited. I bought a place on the Eastern Shore in 2005 and think it's the best place to be. The fishing has been disappointing but now I am psyched. Thank you. Hopefully, when vaccinated and tested I can get back across the border this summer. N.S and its people are the best!
Reliving my childhood snorkelling off the East Coast with that footage, just awesome!
My partner and I are going to move back to the Maritimes, hopefully soon and we can't wait to explore all of this, thanks...
So beautiful under the sea!
I would travel w/you guys just for the food - you always eat very well....
Excellent video! We're actually heading out to the 100 islands again next weekend for another camping trip. Amazing place to explore!
Nice vid and well done with the editing. Beautful part of the world.
The underwater video was amazing! I loved it! Great trip.
A little tip on scouting for scallops , narrow channels with heavy current on a tide change are ideal. Like between a shoal and shore , good luck!
Thanks for the tip Jeff!
Beautiful as always
I was just at that launching beach last week and it looks completely different. A steep wall of rocks. So great to see the shoreline change daily.
Very good youre,responsible camper..very neat and tidy.....what a beautiful underwater shot,forest and sea nothing to ask more...
Wonderfully filmed+ I thoroughly enjoyed this adventure!!
looks and sounds so peaceful; can't wait to drive there this summer coming
Awesome video Noah.
Keep working your way south, its beautiful as well.
Keep those Nova Scotia adventures coming.
Cheers 👍
Thanks Paul, the next adventure coming out soon was down your way. Cheers
Really enjoyed your trip! Thank you for sharing.
Noah you are a great person to lead us. Very informative.
I’ve been following you guys since before the Wabikimi trip. Really love the channel. You guys have progressed so much over the years and it’s inspiring to say the least. This was a great video, another original post with some new content. The underwater footage was great, I’d have a hard time not catching that lobster for dinner. Thanks for bustin ass and sharing your adventures with us.
Thanks Noah! Had a trip planned for June this year and one of the areas I wanted to see was this. Looks like I will keep it in mind for one day when we are allowed to travel again. Beautiful.
Enjoyed your journey. Thanks. It has been a while since I explored the area by canoe. I always say this area is divine for snorkelling, and you really captured the beauty underneath the water. I feel very lucky to call this area my backyard. Cheers
Great video and Looks like an awesome trip. And thanks for helping me ID those fish I’m seeing everywhere.. Cunner fish. I’m up on the Strait but feel your pain on the scallops. Been looking for 2 summers. Looks like from your other vid you got it sorted though 🤙
Nice display of our beautiful Eastern Shore. I own 7 acres on the ocean/river inlet in Moser River. We absolutely love exploring the area. That spot you visited is so nice. I went to Wolfe Island 2 summers ago and it was unreal.
How do you like living in Moser River area?
@Hard Core Canuck i live in Porters Lake. But owned a camp for 2 years on the ocean in Moser River. I loved it there. But unless you can work from home, or have a fly in/fly out kind of job, it's not the greatest. And there was nothing for kids. The closest school is over 30 minutes away by car.
@@jonathanlemire2797 OK sheet harbour the same
@Hard Core Canuck at least Sheet Harbour has a grocery store, gas station, school, etc.
Really nice underwater footage man! Thanks!
Beautiful place, I've been there myself and done some snokeling and camping too.
Years ago I did a lot of surfing on the Eastern Shore. I was sitting in glassy swells one day off the point at Grand Desert (we used to call it 'The Range' - use to be a navy firing range) when I happened to turn around and saw a fin in the water about 100 ft away. Never got out of the water so fast.
I see it's marked as Grand Desert Beach now. Back in the day it was a no-access zone, with a gate and warning signs about unexploded ordnance. Of course we were young and immortal, and picked our way around the occasional 3 inch shell casings to get to the best point break anywhere near Halifax. :-)
Awesome guys, looked like porcupine poo to me, the maritimes has so much to offer... Cheers
I kayaked in this area often. And I might even recognize this specific island - is it the one right off Tangier? If so, then this campsite is the one often used by Coastal Adventures, the kayak outfitters with whom I've gone many times. In any case, I love this part of our Province and I'm stunned by the underwater footage. I try to sit still in my kayak and look down at the kelp forests, I had no idea it was so beautiful. Thank you!
Wow wow wow!
Great video guys, looking to check out the eastern shore a bit more this summer!
Now come on fellas stop having so much fun will ya...lol All I can say Noah is that your video capturing skills have gotten so much better then when you first started. The drone footage was spectacular and awe inspiring to say the least. The underwater footage was second to none. It is a whole new world below the surface and you captured it flawlessly. Video quality was amazing to see as well. Nice to see all the sea life and just how diverse it is down there. I think I would have maybe taken one of those grates that was hanging in the tree and put it on the fire and then put the baguettes on it to slowly toast it and help to melt the cheese. What did you decide to do with the dressing? Which one did you end up using? Inquiring minds want to know...hahahaha...lol. Please keep these type of videos coming and keep promoting our Beautiful province of Nova Scotia. You have become an unofficial ambassador since your arrival here from Ontario. What part of Nova Scotia do you live in? I am in Lower Sackville . Maybe an idea for a future video would be to go across the province by way of the Shubie Canal Lock system through Shubie Park/ Dartmouth area all the way to the Bay of Fundy. That is a video I would watch for sure. Now it is time to just wait and see where your next adventure will take you and us. Cheers and beers there mates. Will see you on the next video. Tom.
Oh yeah that most definitely was porcupine poo that was under that tree....:-)
I appreciate the kind words Tom and always love having you along for the adventure! The dressing technique involved a stick for the dijon, and a couple drops of vinaigrette to top it off. I'm based out of the city but the great thing about Nova Scotia is that you can get to the coast or backcountry in less than 20 minutes. Regarding our upcoming trips, you may have hit it on the head ;) Stay tuned!
Aloha from Hawai'i! I'm not sure if you'll see this comment, but I'll make it anyway. Snorkeling in NS sure is different from here! Your comments on shellfish- taking bans reminds me of when a couple of us might have been poachers! In 1965 when we were 16, some friends and I hatched a plan to pedal our bicycles from Orono, Maine to Truro NS to visit our former high school classmate, Dave. His father had finished graduate studies at UMaine, and the family moved home. For some inexplicable reason, our parents okayed the trip. We pedaled to Bar Harbor, caught the old Blue Nose (RIP), and started north. Somewhere south of Digby, we had to camp on a beach, where we found zillions of clams, so we had a huge steamed clam fest that night. If our take was illegal, we luckily didn't get caught! It's hard to believe that our trip took place over 55 years ago. I miss my frequent trips to Canada from the 1950s - 1970s. You and your countrymen are beautiful.
Thanks for sharing Manu
Noah...perfect
Beautiful area! I love the underwater footage too.
Great video and what a beautiful spot! thanks for sharing and stay safe!
Gotta get you in a sea kayak Noah. Come down to Marylsnd. We have spares!
Those look like some Canada Grade A #1 Bunny Dumplings under that rock. Wild bunnies like to evacuate their bowels at night...so keep your mouth closed while sleeping. Those little nuggets, however, are quite nice in salads and omelettes....as are the bunnies.
Great idea and video, thanks for sharing it!
Was a great watch as always 👌
You must get a lot of strange looks in Nova Scotia paddling around the North Atlantic in that canoe.
Cool trip!
Great vid, inspiring & relaxing, thank u.
Sweet trippo
Just your videos man, awesome.
Waoooo Fantastic upload my friend,, healthy greetings from Indonesian
Can't believe you passed over that Lobster, you're a better man then I. I would've eaten it whole!
For people who might not know... DFO = Department of Fisheries and Oceans, a Canadian federal government department.
Sand would be better to use than seaweed it will absorb the grease in your pan, also the grit of it will help clean it.
awesome video! great tip!
Rick From Virginia
Very cool footage😘
Great video!
That’s an El Capitan tent. Good choice
Have you been to Sober Island? The oysters are the best!!!
I've drank their beer but have yet to visit
Hi, great vid. Aren't you a bit positively buoyant without any weights, especially with that 5/7 mm wetsuit?
Very buoyant, it was difficult staying below the surface. Good thing my wet suit is full of holes :)
Happy found this channel. It became my entertainment spot now 💙
Definitely porcupine poop!
Agreed
Yep
You need to invest in balsamic glaze....great for camping and every day, lol.
I grew up on the shore and after my parents passed I'd still go down home to spend a week survival camping each summer by myself.
However I have since lost my hearing....cant hear the camp bells when you're deaf and that's not a safe way to camp.
ONT lad myself been living in pictou county since 94
Jared is also from Pictou county!
You must miss the fresh water, and the fish..
What make and model of drone do you have ?
Looked like porcupine poop to me. They sometimes made dens under big rocks, and tend to use the bathroom at their front door.
Between ocean and archipelago which one is greatet
Anyone know which specific island this is at?
Is that broke back beach?
That might be owl waste?
The biggest problems the police and others like yourself have with off grid camping, is the garbage that is left behind.! The remnants looked most definitely like porcupine, and a fair size one at that.! All of our planets oceans have been ravaged and decimated by commercial fishing, especial from trying to competing with China.who has over fished with impunity.! One man can still make a difference when it come to catch and release.! Your doing good and I thank you for that. Thank you with thumbs up and all that good stuff moving forward.!
i lobster but never flounder
*NEW FRIEND BUSHCRAFT LOVER* Hi, how are You Ok you don't know me but we can be friends if you don't mind. So I do bushcraft videos too but I'm new and I'll start and I've made some videos so you can check if you will)) from me full support to you and I'll be happy to see you among my friends! God bless you by any way!
Porcupine poop
Pretty sure that's porcupine poop
Wombat poo!
I felt compelled to say “Hello”...
tame islands, the local residents families have lived on these islands and used them for years, Sandy Cove , many of us have seen after a large amount of weekend warriors toilet paper and bathroom all through the woods especially around the beaches, if the government continues to promote our area maybe they need to build bathrooms-it can get pretty disgusting, fire ban was on, not that it matters, if you are careful, government has too many regulations especially the shellfish we have been eating it for years, better than anywhere else and a mussel farm just up the road and not now government tells us we are not allowed to eat our own shellfish
You're right Kevim, there's an internal struggle promoting these pristine places as I would hate to see them misused. We can only hope people respect the land and practice sustainable recreational activities. Having a large community of folks that rally for conservation and proper management is a great way to keep these places wild.
Since when do animals “ go to the washroom “?!!!!
They crap or take a shit. Don’t use inappropriate language.
Its a porccupine
porcupine poop
Porcupine poo
porcupine poo for sure
I have yet to explore this area, but things may change for in the fall. I think this may be one of my top favorites because of the underwater footage. Hopefully I will see you again on the water, but in the meantime keep them videos coming. Cheers from OBO
Perhaps petrified porcupine poo.
