    I feel like a bit of a loser coming here from Tom's channel, since you guys are so great and deserve to be discovered but your own, but hey, I can't help it. I admire your dedication, absolutely great entertainment! The production value is so high, really admirable. And please keep doing the drone shots, I do realize the final product is just a few seconds of footage for each shot, but I think it adds a lot to the overall impression. Keep the great uploads coming and I will certainly be another stable viewer!

    For the ultimate river mission: Atlantic to Pacific - it CAN be done. There’s a weird river split somewhere in the northern Rockies (citation needed) that technically flows into the Pacific if you go right, or into the Mississippi basin if you go left downstream.

    4:50 just because it's less track distance doesn't mean it's least effort or fastest downstream. staying near the current may get you further than fighting the current against the bank... *maybe*, idk. airlines definitely do this, sometimes they go 10%-20%-30% off of the shortest track because winds mean that going offtrack actually costs less fuel

    • @nosy-cat
      @nosy-cat 5 месяцев назад

      You're right. In the bends, the strongest current is almost always on the outside. But sometimes it's negligible even there and it actually does make sense to take the shortest route.

    1. how many of the people who moan about your support crew would even be bothered to climb into a canoe? Let alone in sub zero conditions, ice, wading in and out of the water etc. Even with a support crew you still used tents 1 night!! You guys are rock solid adventurers.
    Thanks for posting a fun, interesting, wholesome video, a good mix of seriousness, sarcasm (banter with Ed to build raport, this worked to create a bond and friendship with GeoWizard, and is clearly in jest) its great seeing you attempt these wild tasks, thank you lads 😁

    Hey Archie and Adam. In June i will be embarking on an epic adventure. I know it is a million dollar idea, so I dont want to give away to much. I dont really care about fences, borders or private property and love to adventure. I know my idea and video title can easily get a million views, but I lack the video editing skills to make a nice video. Maybe we can get in touch, because I'm sure you will agree my idea is gold
