- Опубликовано: 5 июн 2017
- Paddling a slow moving river and having a good time in the Sea Eagle Fastrak 385 inflatable kayak. Jardine and I make our way to the northern inlet of Utah Lake and put in for some impressive bird watching, story telling [Alaskan survival story], paddling, and meetin' folks [like the kids tressel jumping]. I'll sell you on awesome Izze Sparkling fruit drinks too as the come out of the cooler icy cold. Summer fun in TNP.

Birds observed:
Great Blue Heron: Permanent resident. Stands almost 4' tall. Catches fish in the shallow edges of the Jordan River. Also eats rodents, snakes, and frogs.
American White Pelican: Summer resident occasionally seen along the Parkway. Has a wing span up to 9'. One of the largest breeding colonies in the world is on Gunnison Island in the Great Salt Lake.
Cliff Swallow: Common summer resident seen regularly along the river. These swallows make their mud nests in colonies usually under the bridges that cross the Jordan River.
Yellow-headed Blackbird: Common summer and rare winter resident of Utah seen occasionally on the river especially during spring migration. The male is easy to identify with its black body and bright yellow head. A few spend the winter in the Parkway where they are found in flocks of Red-winged Blackbirds.
Yellow Warbler: Common summer resident seen and heard regularly in the river. Nests in the Parkway. Feeds almost entirely on insects and spiders.
MacGillivray's Warbler: Common summer resident of Utah. The few sightings of this warbler have been during the fall migration. They nest in foothills and middle elevations in Utah.
Spotted Sandpiper: Common summer resident of Utah and rarely seen along the Jordan River. Spotted Sandpipers have a unique way of flying from spot to spot with their wings arched downward in quick sputtering beats.

Time for some summer fun in TNP. Come along on a float trip with Jardine and I as we experience the amazing bird sights, chilled out paddling, and cool drinks on the Jordan River. It was a great trip and we look to inspire your own fun outings. -nutnfancy
It's good to have buddies to get out and adventure with! I also rock out with my Crocs out!
Great footage today!
Croc bistro, best tread on the Crocs. I've busted my ass with the regular Crocs on wet surfaces, the Bistros are tread perfection.
I have three barn swallow nest at my house, every year.
looks like an awesome outing.
Looking forward to your review on that Sea Eagle! I am looking forward to hearing how your kayak handles whitewater and how you made your decision on that model, specifically what pushed you away from the Explorer series.
nutnfancy Just adventured last week at the lake spearing Carp with sharpend sticks. We had a great time on the water!
Sea Eagle is the way to go!! We've been using one for almost 4 years now and it's still going strong! Lakes, rivers, ocean, bays...it does it all!
I've had the Sea Eagle for a couple years now. Great kayak. Surprisingly easy to deploy and it's fast in the water. Wife and I are taking it out this weekend since all waterways in CA are record-full. Good to see something I FINALY OWN reviewed. Saved me having to go buy this! 👍
That's so funny. My wife and I just bought a couple kayaks over the weekend. Took them out on a local lake and had a blast. Use to go out all the time with my dad's as a kid but these are the first ones we've owned on our own. Great way to spend the weekend.
I care about water stuff. I'll continue to watch every one you post. Thanks for the content!
A thing really lacking with our younger generation addicted to their stupid phones...... Getting out into nature is such an eye-opening and learning experience, and it is just plain FUN. I'm glad my girls are learning this aspect of LIFE now while they are young.
Love these types of vids, as much as the winter hiking vids and philosophies behind it, and stories of experience of your adventures in variety of environments.
I'm posting this before watching.
Thank you for making a videos of all kinds of topics you're interested in. I have recently been wanting to get into kayaking, so I am really excited to watch this vid!
I love your adventure vids, and this is no exception! I hate that the views don't reflect the energy, but I appreciate all the work that goes into editing these!
For the record I try to watch basically anything you post. Broadening my horizons to things I know nothing about. Girlfriend sent me on a mission to research 2 person kayaks. I immediately searched for a review by you. Must have missed this one. But I do remember the sweet ama you did a while back. Keep em coming man. Appreciate all the time and love you put into the project. Been watching since late 2009. The owl is indeed on the shed.
This adventure type videos are actually my favorite, don't stop doing them!
I just wanted to say I love your videos.
thank you for all your hard work and reviews.
TGG.
Hey nutn, I love the outdoor and adventure vids. I know they're not the most watched vids, but I love them. Great stuff, as per usual.
Dude you this channel is frickin awesome I love all the vids! My main interest was shooting, but now my hobbies have expanded thanks Nutn!
Perfect timing!! I just bought a kajak. Love your adventure videos!
Subscriber since 2009!
My wife got me a kayak for Christmas last year. I've been loving it so far. I need to plan a camping trip via kayak sometime.
I'm always down for a good paddle myself. I've made the trip from Hoover dam to willow beach here in Las Vegas several times and it never disappoints. Hot springs, big horn sheep, and old mining camps, relics from when the Colorado could still be navigated. I have had trouble with inflatable kayaks in the past so now I have an ocean kayak SOT for paddling with a buddy and an 18 foot fiberglass boat for touring.
Some of my happiest memories are Canoeing on the Rivers around Raleigh, NC with family and friends. Great video Nutn.
I really enjoy these adventure videos. even if you do not get the views it deserves
very cool. Like how you mix it up. Beautiful country out there. -Mark
Another awesome adventure video. I'm going camping in the mountains this weekend. I love my crocs too.
Love watching your adventure vids while running on the treadmill. Almost like being there. Thx man!
Please continue the outdoor adventure water videos. As soon as I saw the title to this video I immediately watched it. My go to IK is a Sea Eagle 370 and I would definitely argue one of the best all around values on the market, especially if someone wants to try out this type of adventure style. I was stoked to see your IK was another Sea Eagle product. Thanks for all of the work you do. If you ever want to paddle or camp in western PA, I'll gladly host you or provide logistics.
I like it when you show all these different types of adventures.
Please post more of the adventure stuff! I love it and refreshed to see it back
Just got back from a 4 day canoe trip with 7 great guys. Nothing better than our annual canoe trip.
Such a beautiful place! Enjoy these vids and the way you edit reminds me to get out and enjoy the out of doors!
Nice time out on Kayak, thanks for more outdoor adventure content.
Trying to go kayaking with my good buddy soon, open to some new outdoor activities. I like these videos
Old Pack canoe from Coleman is 35 lbs 10.5ish feet and is my new boat as it tracks better than inflatable. You better believe I still have an inflatable mimicking your pack system from seven years ago where you hiked up the mountains with 80lbs pack and a boat lol. Love the aqua vids!
good times
Great video. some of my favorite videos Nutn. keep it up brother
Looks like a great little boat !!! Glad you shared it. Thanks Nutn'
Love urban kayaking! I kayak the Rio Grande a few times a year during the monsoon season when water levels are high. You can get in a good 50 mile all day adventure from Cochiti Lake to down town ABQ or a short 10 mile ride from the Alameda bridge to Montano bridge in under two hours. Just tested the Victorinox Skipper on a recent 24 mile trip and functioned flawlessly.
I've had a Sea Eagle 385ft for a few years now; love it! We've done the Jordan and Provo rivers, Utah Lake, lakes up in Montana...
I love birds. I have seen some cool ones since moving back to UT. Love it.
awesome video! missed this kind of TNP videos. would love to see more backpackingvideos too. and maybe a updated backpackingsystem video. keep it up!
I'd love to see more like this. Maybe multi day adventure with the inflatable kayak. I'd also like a full review of this kayak.
Hope to see a review of this kayak. Thanks for taking us along.
Love the water videos along with my favorite, ride and eat vids.
When nutn mentioned Sea Eagle, I had a gut feeling he had a Fastrack. I have the longer FT465 -- fantastic in every way in the waters around NYC. 795lb capacity, takes 3 adults but I prefer 2 for extra room. I added a Kayaksailor 1.4 sailing rig, trolling motor, and a powerful 87aH gel battery. The setup totally rocks ass, a versatile pocket boat that lives in the trunk of a car. Don't forget a lightweight carbon paddle. Love my FT465, it's a real boat.
@Reallyhappenings5597 hey there-fellow ny’er who is looking at the FT465 or explorer 420x for city and non-city adventures-have you used the FT465 in any swell or whitewater? I would love to be able to use it upstate on whitewater and lakes as well as in the ocean/LI sound for paddling/fishing/diving/maybe sailing someday-was thinking maybe the higher sides on the 420x will keep us drier in non-ideal conditions but love the improved performance of the FT465-would love to hear your thoughts!
Nice paddle trip. I like the birds!
Really enjoyed this video honestly I'd love to see more like this.
I'd have to say...I'm a watch repair technician, so the wrist watch vids are not really my thing since I pretty much have most of the info about the watches you do have worked on most minus Casio. I digress, you've been kill'n it lately, love all the gun vids and outdoorsy ones as well. Thank you for bringing us kick ass content time and time again!
Freakin awesome dude. Love kayaks and rivers!
love seeing the adventuring... keep these vids coming Nutn!
Keep up the awesome videos.
i have watched a lot of your vids from the guns to knives to mountain dogs and such. this is my favorite. maybe cuz im bout them birds but this is such cool stuff
First water adventure ive watched and i actually liked it lmao. Probably gonna watch a lot more
thoroughly enjoyed this vid... love them all but my dad got me into kayaking years ago so this type of adventure is right up my alley... just need a fishing pole!
Awesome vid. Sometimes I need a reminder to get out and enjoy the air. I'm the only one in my family and friends that actually enjoys the outdoors.
dude. way too long since we had adventure vids like this one. Keep it up.
I love these vids... please keep them coming. I'd love to see you guys hit some whitewater. I recently purchased a canoe and enjoy taking my kids out in it... great family activity.
Love this stuff! Totally dig it! Keep it coming! You may have inspired me to dust off the ole canoe for the coming weekend!
that's the best opening of a video yet!
Nice vid! I've had a sea eagle 385 (not ft) for years. It can even handle my mastiff in it!
This was fun to watch.
Beautiful float!
Any video where Mike Jardine laughs, makes me laugh LOL! I dig the serenity of this video for sure. Thanks for losing a Go Pro for us here in Cyber-land, Nutn.
He's a great dude, love having him around. 100% Genuine dude.
When I was young (Explorer Scout) I built a kayak, canvas stretched over a wood frame, the first run was the Bear River, between the Narrows Reservoir and Evanston. Then we went to Yellowstone Lake for two (2) weeks, in the southeast arm of the lake. We had two powerboats with use, we got caught in the Bird Refuge waterskiing, lol. Great time. then a trip down the Colorado River, even more fun.....
Love these adventure videos!
Thanks, me too. -nutnfancy
love your area of operations!
that was cool, love the birds too
I enjoyed this vid. More are welcomed, along with any other adventures.
3 minute commercial I sat through... just for you Nutn, haha
David MN
They aren't paying him for it it bet. Lol
Good try though. It's the thought that counts!
Anytime away from the worldly clamors is good time spent. Thanks for the timeout!!!!!
Love the kayak and bike videos any chance for a gear video about different kayaks and canoes ???????
If I could like this twice I would. Nutn always puts things in perspective...
I love the water vids nutn! keep it up!
i loved this video Nutn. nothing wrong with the vlog approach...
dude that bridge is perfect I need to go there immediately
such a beautiful countryside u got there in the us...
envious me looking out my window in germany
Love the water vids, ESPECIALLY the low budget ones.
Love the water vids!! Just doing a bunch of water stuff myself so super relevant and still interesting even if I wasn't. Yes we get it... Nutn haha!
Just got back from kayaking and fishing. No bow hunting, though. No current is a dream for me...slightly faster rivers where I am in SC. Always great videos, Nutnfancy!
Could watch this all day.
nutnfancy....more than just guns.
living the good life amigo
great adventure. Thanks for the encouragement.
I loved this video. The Sea Eagle is an excellent option to a standard kayak. May have to get me one. :-)
I'd like to do this trip sometime. Looks like lots of fun.
You should know that there are people out here really enjoy watching these adventure and recreational videos. Especially the ones that feature watercraft and motorcycles. The gear reviews are interesting but I have all the guns and knives I want and need.
Great video! Water + birds = Kick Ass!
Yes Jack, they do...loved the bird watching on this trip. We were astounded how big those Pelicans were. -nutnfancy
enjoyed this one. personally I really enjoy river trips like this.
You launched right near the public works plant. I wouldn't be surprised if it smelt like shit because they pump shit into the water. Good thing you paddled up stream and didn't stay downstream of that plant.
Hey Nutn'! I know these don't get the views views that other videos, but they are some of my favorite. I'm a 20 year old college student 1,000 miles from my home in Minnesota and these adventure videos remind me of all the great times I had with my dad growing up. I can't afford 99% of the stuff on your channel, but I swing a Saturday afternoon to get out on the lake in the kayak I'm hoping to buy this August. Hey, if you're ever up in Minnesota during the summer (the North Shore is a must before you die), hit me up and we can go fishing the way I grew up doing it, nothing fancy (pun intended), just a few guys in a well broken in boat living the good life and wetting a line.
dude I love the water stuff. I'm from Michigan, I loved the systems video for your zodiac. I'm in the middle of building up my duck hunting boat/blind, and am looking to use some of your systems. my wife and I rock kayaks up north on a small inland lake, do lots of fishing from them.
I have a Sea Eagle 330 and it is awesome. Rated for Class 3 rapids. I am a new kayak fisherman because of it. 15 minutes to get things ready and you are on your trip.
love the water stuff
I love this stuff.
great stuff. love it
what a cool video. let me know if you ever wanna come kayaking on Vancouver Island. I'll take you to my local range or just go shoot in the woods after
very nice! sea eagle has really improved their quality recently. you should look into their inflatable canoe as well
This video couldn't have come at a perfect time, just picked up a striker perception 11.5 for fishing and exploring!!!
2 - Pescador 12" kayaks here....absolutely love them. - Get busy living or get busy dying.
more vids like this Nutn makes me motivated to get out and get healthy.
I see red wing black birds all the freaking time. Beautiful birds.
Great Vid, here in Richmond Va we actually have the James river running though the downtown area Class $ urban rapids!!
awesome love the yakin vids
Great vid, Nutn.
Great video. Thank you.
Hell yeah man get outdoors, looks like was hella great day for it
