Just wow. When you realize on day 10 that the going is a lot harder and slower that you had planned on and .... you just keep on going.... few modern men would have the fortitude and inner strength.... cannot express my gratefulness at being able to observe your explorations.... legendary stuff... and unique content... your production quality and scene selection and management and music all blend together for a superb experience.....so well done... thank-you
@@JustinBarbournlexplorer the dogs upper nail is usually removed before exploration....... The reason this is done is because dogs always have very painful injuries from that nail........ I can tell you from experience that your dog is in a lot of pain.
I am watching this wilderness adventure with great admiration. It’s not just the physical strain of the portaging but the mental alertness required. I hope people realize how hard it is to do what you are doing. If this trip were a collage course it would be in a advanced doctorate program.
Thanks again. Your adventures remind me of my first experience in the real wilderness. I took a 30 day Outward Bound course north of Thunder Bay in the middle of October..One component of this course was to be dropped off for 3 days on a tiny island with a sleeping bag, a plastic sheet for shelter and 2 cups of trail mix. They called it the Solo. The only time in my 62 years when I was really and truly alone. I also learned that when one feels completely exhausted and shattered, you actually still have amazing reserves of strength and can paddle on for hours. You already know this of course.
This popping up in my feed on my day off working at a grocery store during this pandemic after checking every day for almost 2 months made me SO happy.
Hello, dear, Justin, your crossing the Labrador is such an amazing and exciting adventure! I am so grateful to be like this invited to join your hard efforts when you progress the wild country mile after mile! All respect! Wishing you and your faithful Saku all the very best! Greetings from Sweden! ❤👍👍👍🏁
your quiet confidence is admirable wild country can be creepy but beautiful at the same time the wild is not friendly not hostile just indifferent to humanity
Wow Justin!! This is beyond challenging. You're grit and determination very impressive! Great job on the videography, the viewer gets a real sense of the ferocity of the river and the dangers this wild country presents. And Saku!!! He's your ever loyal companion, loving the adventure as much as his master. Way to go you two! Can't wait for the next episode
Rock Climbing ......Understatment Rock Climbing while pulling a Canoe againt an egrressive current... Think about that for a second People... All the time SAKU is by his side.... What Teamwork is all about in my world... Cheers Mike ..... And thankyou for the replays to my comments Its very Appreciated Best wishes to you nd yours Big hugs to SAKU
Amazing how nature can battle against you in so many different ways. I’m in awe Justin of your sheer brute strength matched with bloody determination - a winning combination
Can’t help but thinking 🤔 if you started at the other end, you could have just rode the river. 😂He’ll of a walk though. Well done, epic adventure, really enjoyed the journey.
Just fantastic man. When I watch your videos, I find myself making a mental list of great work to comment on but, halfway through an episode, that list is already too long for a simple comment. So I'll save the essay and just say bravo and thanks for another exceptional production.
I’ve done many a river trip, but none having to run/portage upstream all the way! The scenery and waterways is very similar to parts of the Yukon and northern B.C. (without the mountains). Burn areas are great for firewood, and often mushrooms shortly after. I admire your determination and resilience. This is the way of our forefathers, and our land would never had been explored and conquered without certain people determined to take ‘the hard way’. Beautifully shot, and edited. I know using a lapel or shotgun mic is out of the question, so subtitles and such are perfect. Kudos to you and Saku.
Justin with great respect what an amazing courage to do this trip alone with a dog ! I have had to portage - but this is the longest one ever ! this is significant by any man ....
Well, that was intense. Every step seemed like a struggle. Triple carry portages thru thick bush. And you set up the camera for filming the whole way. Saku is a beast too. Very impressive. Thank you, that was great.
A rugged, wild and untouched land. Many rapids, difficult to traverse but oh so beautiful. Loving this series and need to share to my personal FB page and Twitter. ❤
Justin, just discovered you today while here at home in Denmark. I’m a Nova Scotian and use to do a lot of back country paddling. My son lives on the rock. Really great videos. Very much looking forward to the ones coming. Saku is great. I’m a dog person and never heard of the Cape Shore Water Dog. Very cool! I use to trip with my bouvier. She loved the adventures. You are keeping me very entertained when I really need distraction. Thank you.
Thanks for subscribing Heather we're happy to have you! Saku is a unique breed of dog from Newfoundland. Not a pure bred but a mix of several breeds. There's a long story behind it. Take care we'll catch you in the next one : )
Well Justin, you fish, Saku hunts, hope you cooked up that Muskrat, they are quite tasty, truth be told, best fried with salt, pepper and a side of rice. Mental toughness is more important than the physical, you've got both, nice work and thanks for the video..
Just want you to know how much I enjoy your adventures helping entertain my days on this quarantine and distancing times . I’m from NL but now on in Vancouver Island ,this is one of the best outdoors videos I’ve ever seen ,Thankyou 👍👍❤️🙏🏻🌎
Being Labrador my home, I say a mighty Thank you Justin and Saku for this amazing video adventure. Taking care of yourself and Saku, ( including medical administration to your best friend ) , whole hearted again a big thank you Justin. You and Saku are Awesome .
You know you are amazing! I'll tell you again, though! The strength and endurance it took to pull and drag through the swallow and Rocky sections is a test of your amazing will power! Pat Dali on the head for me. Great video series, Justin! Stay healthy!
Well what can you say about this episode. I was tired just watching, just like the adventurers that came to North America hundreds of years ago and fought there way to explore a new continent. Great stuff 👍
This is so grand in every way! Grand adventure, grand filmmaking, grand personalities (you and Saku are just both so compelling) and grand fun to watch. Thank you for all of the efforts you put into sharing your adventures so freely. It still blows my mind at how you can simultaneously do the adventure AND be thinking through how to share it with your narrations and setting up shots and showing us all so much of the surrounding areas and contexts. So much grit and talent and charm in one human/dog duo.
This adventure is determination personified (dogified)! Got exhausted watching those portages , my gracious! Spread your name as far as Georgia and Alabama in Feb. my friend answering questions of Canada and its Outdoors! Hope it grabs you some subscribers!!
Fabulous. Well-done. I thoroughly enjoy watching your adventures much further south in the state of South Carolina. We have our spots thankfully but nothing like this. Canada has some beautiful, beautiful country. I can't help but think about Lewis and Clark when I watch your videos. Stay safe and thanks for sharing with the rest of us. P.S. As a Southerner, I am also digging your accent.

You are one tough ombré and so is saku. This series is amazing such wild country. It’s just like being there. No need to enter me as you know I have the book. Probably the first one in Ontario to get one lol. I am going to look into those Lowa boots though. As soon as I kick cancers ass I’m going to need them. Take care buddy
Definitely making Newfoundland look like a weekend at your neighborhood park with this one! Great adventure as always. Definitely helps us get through this lockdown! Glad youre back!
One problem of supporting an Explorer on RUclips is that they keep going off exploring! But you really make it worthwhile. Great episode, well worth the wait. So much suspense waiting to see if that rope snaps and then you're hooped!!!
After seeing "Man and Dog. Through the Newfoundland Wilderness" and now episodes 1&2 of this series I am really looking forward to the next episodes...…..better than anything on the TV
Dear lord have mercy dillon by i cant imagine how hard yu worked goin up them brooks in flies. Im from Labrador and i wouldnt even think bout doin that but i love watchin you do it lol.
As always Justin and Saku, I absolutely love this video! I found myself holding my breath a few times! LOL. You two are a great team. Justin, I know how you love having Saku with you and the extra energy you need to not only keep yourself safe, but Saku too. I always expend extra energy when I take my dogs on an adventure with me. They re curious and love to seek out adventure like their mom. lol Thank you!
Really delighted to find this second episode! I admire your courage, determination and fierce delight in what you are doing. Saku is an awesome companion and a mighty explorer as well. Thanks so much for sharing such an exceptional adventure, so well edited. My Celtic spirit is stirred by the music and breathtaking vistas.
Again awesome work Justin.!!You are the real deal. I follow a long list of channels just as yours. But it blows my mind why more people are not subscribed to this First class act,your chanel. Your right up their with Robinet , Shawn James and the rest of the tribe here on RUclips. Looking forward to your next segment. Thank you for all the hard work you do and for sharing it, for our entertainment, and yes it is a labor of love.
Watching you and Saku really makes me want to get a dog 🐕 and go on adventures. So awesome. You do a really good job psi ti v a picture of your traveled minute by minute -- Day by Day!! It’s really hard work you can see the passion you have! It’s so inspiring for me!! Thank you fir sharing your life and adventures with us!! “Good boy Saku!”
Wow Justin... this is perhaps the most epic journey I have ever seen . You are one tuff SOB to battle upriver under those conditions for such a long distance. No wonder Saku was so sore... I am looking so forward to the next episode... Keep you paddle in the water my friend... Dennis, Canoehound Adventures
Unbelievable adventure! Can't believe how you pushed through up river and with such a positive attitude! Beautiful country and thank you for sharing your amazing adventure with us on RUclips! Can't wait for the next episode!
WOW a lot of portaging , epic scenery love the views of the waterfalls , Saku and yourself sure have great endurance , the sunset was gorgeous. The bugs oooh no yikes .
Hey buddy - under house arrest for 14 days after coming back from Florida - watching your episodes is helping the time go by - adding some reality to what’s going on and best of all relaxing the mind in these crazy times - thanks Justin - give ole Saku a scratch on the ear for me
Thanks for bringing us along Justin on our journey you are a real Voyager. I very much appreciate you efforts it's one thing to do that but you have to film it also good on you.
Even as a younger dog saku still listens so good , couple times you could tell he was unsure but knew his father wouldnt lead him astray my pups wouldn't jumped out and panicked and we would of swam alot , congrats
Quick recap of video starting at time 11:11 ending at 12:15: Justin: "What do you think Saku?" Saku: "Uhhh yeah, sure. Does my reaction not explain it all to you??" Justin: "Come on buddy, hold on." Saku: *Looks ahead of the canoe and sniffs the air* Justin: "Trying not to take any water on here." Saku: "Uhhh yeah, that is a great idea since I am stuck in this." ... "Where can I jump out at before you tip this thing over and kill me?" *Looks at the shoreline* Justin: "Stay Sak." Saku: "I am how about you hurry up." Justin: "Good job buddy, Saku: *licks his mouth* "Yep, awesome, feed me now, I'm hungry. Foood! ... What, no doggy biscuit for a good job?"
haha just another great day of adventure for man and dog. Food doesn't come until the work is done. Saku's a man and knows that. This was not a summers picnic.
Awesome video Justin,beautiful untouched country certainly not for the faint hearted and what a test of endurance.You and Saku are amazing..thanks for sharing!
Most would have turned that canoe around, and ride, walk, those rapids down, or call for a ride out. Not you though! You just just keep on pushing through! I ordered your book "Man and Dog" off of Amazon, looking forward to a great read, and hoping for more of your books in the near future!! Excellent videos...
The best outdoor channel on RUclips. A down to earth vibe the rest don't have. Ever think of running a bell on the dog? I imagine he's often out front. Might give the bears a heads up. You've done a great job with him too. Be proud. From NS - Schuey
Thanks for tuning in. I've thought of a bell on him. I have one in the pouch of my PFD. Sometimes I wrap it up because the jingling drive me nuts haha Cheers
Can’t deny I’ve been feeling the weight of the world of late. Then I saw your video in my que. I started watching and I cried and cried. It was like I’d forgotten that the real world was still out there, full of colour and light and adventure. What a gift you and Saku are to me at this time. 🙏
Great trip so far but you sure are working hard at times. But hey I always say when someone asks me how was your trip ......it wouldn’t be near as enjoyable if it was easy going all the time. That’s what make each trip in the country always great to remember . 👍🐾🐾🐾
I've never seen anyone as capable, with the fortitude and knowledge necessary to take on such a journey. Finished watching episode 2. Incredible trip and an exceptional companion, Saku!!! He will be bored when you return home. Great adventure and outstanding videos. Best Wishes
This is the kind of thing I fantisized about doing as a younger person, so good on you Justin and Saku for your achievements some of us lesser beings can live out our dreams vicariously through.
Stay tuned for winter 2021 when Saku and Justin pull a broken down 16 Elan from Eclipse River, Labrador, to the ferry in Blanc-Sablon!!! man you are a beast!!!
Just wow. When you realize on day 10 that the going is a lot harder and slower that you had planned on and .... you just keep on going.... few modern men would have the fortitude and inner strength.... cannot express my gratefulness at being able to observe your explorations.... legendary stuff... and unique content... your production quality and scene selection and management and music all blend together for a superb experience.....so well done... thank-you
Thanks for watching Ken 🏕👍
This guy is tough! No doubt about it.
VERY WELL SAID. I feel as if though I've stumbled upon something very special, having found this channel. Cheers from Ontario!
Justin- “Saku, you’re a savage.”
Saku - “Takes one to know one!”
haha thanks for watching Finch
@@JustinBarbournlexplorer the dogs upper nail is usually removed before exploration.......
The reason this is done is because dogs always have very painful injuries from that nail........ I can tell you from experience that your dog is in a lot of pain.
Perfect timing! This is exactly what the world needs right now! Thanks Justin!
Glad to have you back thank you!
I have missed watching your videos by the way this is sue I do so enjoy watching hope to see you again soon love zach to awesome keep safe.
This ain't no cooking bushcraft channel...it's 110% outdoors extreme adventure! So glad I found you!
Awesome! Thank you!
I am watching this wilderness adventure with great admiration. It’s not just the physical strain of the portaging but the mental alertness required. I hope people realize how hard it is to do what you are doing. If this trip were a collage course it would be in a advanced doctorate program.
The dislikes on this video can only be explained as mis-clicks! Your work ethic is inspiring.
Love how you take care of Saku. My daughter is a veterinary tech. We love animals. All animals.
Thanks again. Your adventures remind me of my first experience in the real wilderness. I took a 30 day Outward Bound course north of Thunder Bay in the middle of October..One component of this course was to be dropped off for 3 days on a tiny island with a sleeping bag, a plastic sheet for shelter and 2 cups of trail mix.

So is your dog.

At the 35 minute mark Sak looks at you like “come on catch a fish.” Love dogs.
Wow Justin!! This is beyond challenging. You're grit and determination very impressive!

Saku blazing the trail at 46:20 👍 Nice bug jacket you have and the padding wrapped around canoe spar makes for more comfortable portage, Smart
Can’t help but thinking 🤔 if you started at the other end, you could have just rode the river. 😂He’ll of a walk though. Well done, epic adventure, really enjoyed the journey.
Just fantastic man. When I watch your videos, I find myself making a mental list of great work to comment on but, halfway through an episode, that list is already too long for a simple comment. So I'll save the essay and just say bravo and thanks for another exceptional production.
Thanks for watching and dropping a line brother. Really appreciate it. Happy trails in Ontario
I’ve done many a river trip, but none having to run/portage upstream all the way! The scenery and waterways is very similar to parts of the Yukon and northern B.C. (without the mountains). Burn areas are great for firewood, and often mushrooms shortly after. I admire your determination and resilience. This is the way of our forefathers, and our land would never had been explored and conquered without certain people determined to take ‘the hard way’. Beautifully shot, and edited. I know using a lapel or shotgun mic is out of the question, so subtitles and such are perfect. Kudos to you and Saku.
Thanks for watching 🏕👍All the best
Justin with great respect what an amazing courage to do this trip alone with a dog ! I have had to portage - but this is the longest one ever !
this is significant by any man ....
Well, that was intense. Every step seemed like a struggle. Triple carry portages thru thick bush. And you set up the camera for filming the whole way. Saku is a beast too. Very impressive. Thank you, that was great.
Thanks for watching we're happy to have you Tom, take care 👍

Justin, just discovered you today while here at home in Denmark. I’m a Nova Scotian and use to do a lot of back country paddling. My son lives on the rock. Really great videos. Very much looking forward to the ones coming. Saku is great. I’m a dog person and never heard of the Cape Shore Water Dog. Very cool! I use to trip with my bouvier. She loved the adventures. You are keeping me very entertained when I really need distraction. Thank you.
Thanks for subscribing Heather we're happy to have you! Saku is a unique breed of dog from Newfoundland. Not a pure bred but a mix of several breeds. There's a long story behind it. Take care we'll catch you in the next one : )
Well Justin, you fish, Saku hunts, hope you cooked up that Muskrat, they are quite tasty, truth be told, best fried with salt, pepper and a side of rice. Mental toughness is more important than the physical, you've got both, nice work and thanks for the video..

Well what can you say about this episode. I was tired just watching, just like the adventurers that came to North America hundreds of years ago and fought there way to explore a new continent. Great stuff 👍
This is so grand in every way! Grand adventure, grand filmmaking, grand personalities (you and Saku are just both so compelling) and grand fun to watch. Thank you for all of the efforts you put into sharing your adventures so freely. It still blows my mind at how you can simultaneously do the adventure AND be thinking through how to share it with your narrations and setting up shots and showing us all so much of the surrounding areas and contexts.

Thanks for the kind words Kara we're happy to have you!

Awesome! Been looking forward to this for a while!
Thanks Paul I appreciate you tuning in 👍🏕take care
I have been anxiously waiting for this episode. Better than any program on tv
Quick recap of video starting at time 11:11 ending at 12:15:
Justin: "What do you think Saku?"
Saku: "Uhhh yeah, sure. Does my reaction not explain it all to you??"
Justin: "Come on buddy, hold on."
Saku: *Looks ahead of the canoe and sniffs the air*
Justin: "Trying not to take any water on here."
Saku: "Uhhh yeah, that is a great idea since I am stuck in this." ... "Where can I jump out at before you tip this thing over and kill me?" *Looks at the shoreline*
Justin: "Stay Sak."
Saku: "I am how about you hurry up."
Justin: "Good job buddy,
Saku: *licks his mouth* "Yep, awesome, feed me now, I'm hungry. Foood! ... What, no doggy biscuit for a good job?"
haha just another great day of adventure for man and dog. Food doesn't come until the work is done. Saku's a man and knows that. This was not a summers picnic.
Awesome video Justin,beautiful untouched country certainly not for the faint hearted and what a test of endurance.You and Saku are amazing..thanks for sharing!
“ few flies on the go though “ 🤣
Good protein. Thks for watching
And I forgot a few words for Saku, what a big dog and what a wonderful and intuitive companion with you and the Siberian Husky too 🐕🦴💪👏👏👍
Girlfriend: What's that on RUclips?
Me: The only thing I got these days that keeps me calm 🤣
Great job buddy!
haha Thanks for watching Ryan! 🏕👍
"Holy cow... there is a few flies on the go" ..... I'll never forget that line...
my mom is crying right now
Hope she's okay!
WOW my legs are still sore from treading against the current all day great show Thanks Justin and Saku
Most would have turned that canoe around, and ride, walk, those rapids down, or call for a ride out. Not you though! You just just keep on pushing through! I ordered your book "Man and Dog" off of Amazon, looking forward to a great read, and hoping for more of your books in the near future!! Excellent videos...
Appreciate it JD! Take care and enjoy
WELCOME BACK JUSTIN BARBOUR. !!!!
same to you GREG!
The best outdoor channel on RUclips. A down to earth vibe the rest don't have.
Ever think of running a bell on the dog? I imagine he's often out front. Might give the bears a heads up. You've done a great job with him too. Be proud.

Thanks for tuning in. I've thought of a bell on him. I have one in the pouch of my PFD. Sometimes I wrap it up because the jingling drive me nuts haha Cheers
Can’t deny I’ve been feeling the weight of the world of late. Then I saw your video in my que. I started watching and I cried and cried. It was like I’d forgotten that the real world was still out there, full of colour and light and adventure. What a gift you and Saku are to me at this time. 🙏
Thanks for watching 🏕👍Take care, all the best
I appreciate you taking the time to film and comment. That's a great tale.
Great trip so far but you sure are working hard at times. But hey I always say when someone asks me how was your trip ......it wouldn’t be near as enjoyable if it was easy going all the time. That’s what make each trip in the country always great to remember . 👍🐾🐾🐾
I've been saving this since the lockdown began. The blackflies looked like a nightmare ! Great video, thank you !
Thanks Craig!
Waiting is over! Thanks. I will grab a beer and watch this.
Up river travel is hard, that's plain to see... but you managed to still enjoy the wild beautiful nature all around you.
I've never seen anyone as capable, with the fortitude and knowledge necessary to take on such a journey. Finished watching episode 2. Incredible trip and an exceptional companion, Saku!!! He will be bored when you return home. Great adventure and outstanding videos. Best Wishes
He was bored for sure! Thanks for watching and commenting Charlie take care
Good to see you two are well, great video!❤🐶 Give Saku a big hug for me!
Hug has been given. Thanks for watching ! 🐾
