Click 'show more' for additional information 👇
At 1.4 million km², the Labrador Peninsula is one of the last great wilderness areas on the planet. In 2018 I set a goal to cross its width by canoe.
From the Labrador Sea to Hudson Bay it was an estimated 1700 kilometre journey that would last 83 days.
With only my dog Saku, I would travel, up and down remote rivers, across enormous lakes, and over portages that were littered with both beauty and danger.
We would witness and camp in wilderness that few, if any, have ever seen and rewind back to a time when life was simpler.
Along the way I filmed our experiences. Now, in a docuseries format, we bring it to life for you, right here on RUclips.

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.
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

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
@Dewi -1 It went great for sure, thanks for watching Dewi. I'll have that one up beginning of next season when it's more fitting i'd say , take care
@@cliffordwright1603 Thanks Cliff I wish you all the best, dig deep. Take care buddy
I love my Lowa Z-8N GTX boots almost as much as watching you and ol' Sak!
Truly amazing mr. Barbour.
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.
At the 35 minute mark Sak looks at you like “come on catch a fish.” Love dogs.
You sir, are a badass.
So is your dog.
Thanks for watching Nathan 🏕👍
Love how you take care of Saku. My daughter is a veterinary tech. We love animals. All animals.
I've been waiting 2 months to see this channel go active again my dreams have come true thank you Justin
Thanks for watching Mark 🏕👍
Ok who's having more fun Justin or Saku 👍👍👍
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
Bravo Justin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Saku you are strongest dog in the world !!!!!!!!!!!!
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.
Thanks for watching Matthew 🏕👍All the best. Bring me over some groceries by I'm on quarantine haha
The dislikes on this video can only be explained as mis-clicks! Your work ethic is inspiring.
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.
This deserves to be on netflix. Amazing stuff, Canadians are the greatest.
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
Thanks for watching Robert🏕👍All the best. Nature treats us all equally, I love that about her
You are absolutely living the dream brother
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
Thanks for the comment Andy, happy to have you!
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 : )
My Lord the scenery is second to none . That river and falls, boulders, shrubs and such hard work to navigate it all, thankyou Justin and 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
Thanks we're happy to have you along! Take care : )
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
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 👍
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 🐕🦴💪👏👏👍
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 👍👍❤️🙏🏻🌎
Thanks Bride hope all is well!
👍👍🙏🏻🌎
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
An amazing "solo" trek in through the remote, wild and beautifull land of Labrador. One thing I can easily observe, you seems totally ready for plunging into such an endeavour. The remoteness of the area can easily overwhelmed anyone not well prepared. You deserve huge respect, all through your videos, I observe a man who know what he is doing.
Thanks Rene I appreciate you tuning in 👍🏕Take care
"Holy cow... there is a few flies on the go" ..... I'll never forget that line...
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!!!
My heroes have returned! 😄 💜💙 🇨🇦
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 .
Thanks for watching Steve 🏕👍All the best take care my buddy
thanks for taking me back to my home and native land, Justin Barbour! I wish I could watch a new one daily.
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!
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
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!!
Thanks for sharing and watching Barbour! 🏕👍All the best buddy
WICKED! I don't understand WHY some network didn't grab this up! Just awesome Justin! TY! You, Heather, and the furries stay healthy and safe.
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.
Geez! This is a real adventure. I thought Navy Seals have it tough. This is unending.
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!
I appreciate you taking the time to film and comment. That's a great tale.
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.
Thanks for the kind words Kara we're happy to have you!
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 saw the notification. Can’t wait to get into it. Looking forward to the winter excursion also. Stay safe.
Appreciate it Darrell, enjoy!
Thank you for the opportunity to enter and good job on the videos. I look forward to each episode.
Simply breathtaking, but I do feel somewhat guilty watching you do all the work.
"Not a cut stick....not a wrapper..."
Love it! Just the way the world should be!!
For sure thanks for watching Terry 🏕👍All the best
Social distancing done right
You can't beat it. Thks for watching Tiberiu
Your energy levels amaze me.
I have to agree I think this exhibition I would have long given up lol
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.
*Really enjoy watching your content, keep up the great work my friend* 👍👍👍👍
Thanks I appreciate you tuning in 👍🏕all the best take care
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
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.
Justin you and Saku are hard core, I was wore out just watching the video.
Thanks Justin. I really need this right now! I'm so nervous with this virus scare !
Appreciate it Roy, stay safe and calm. We're all in this together. Enjoy the video.
Thank you for getting me through COVID19 social distancing.
Thank you Justin Barbour! This is soo needed today!
Thanks Roy I appreciate you tuning in, take care
Hello, dear, Justin, your crossing the Labrador is such an amazing and exciting adventure!

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!

Waiting is over! Thanks. I will grab a beer and watch this.
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.
Thanks for taking time to film your adventures for us, they surely bring joy to me heart.
“ few flies on the go though “ 🤣
Good protein. Thks for watching
This expedition is awesome! You are really fighting your way up that river and just you and Saku. I find that amazing . Most people would never venture that route with another person along to help yet you are doing it alone. That takes guts and determination to the max! I'm really enjoying watching your adventure.......Take care, Bluefin.
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! 🏕👍
You and Saku are beasts! Good job.
Thanks fuck face!
my mom is crying right now
Hope she's okay!
Glad the new series is back...your adventures get me out of the office for lunch each day....thanks.
Saku!! Friendly canine conqueror of the Labrador wilderness. With his trusty fellow explorer friend Justin. Lovely adventure videos. Thanks
Thank you, thank you, thank you Justin and Saku. Stay safe.
Thanks for watching and commenting Barbara, we're happy to have you, take care 👍
Holy cow ! Where you bin? Glad to see ya back... love your style.... upload faster and faster the world needs you more than ever....!
Saku is so excited about all this canoeing!
he's living the dream of a big active dog!
Man again. The sights that you are able to see. You really hit home with me when you said "not even a wrapper". How many people can say they have stood where there is not one piece of trash? Unbelievable.
Thanks Buck. It was wild. Hard to explain the feeling one gets
Your pup is a real friend !
You just saved me from this Oblivion with this series. Fortudine
Thanks for watching and commenting , we're happy to have you, take care 👍
I lost 10 pounds just watching this video!!! Awesome video's brother don't stop 👊👊👊
haha thanks for watching Steven we're happy to have you, take care 👍
Breath taking sites. Thank you Justin
For taking us with you!
Seen this series last year, and now i feel like watching it again, by far, by very very far, your best series, Justin
Ya cracked me up when you thought Saku was battling a mink... what a slog, but extra special that it appears to be a route travelled by the two of you. Love it. Hardest part for us is waiting for the next fix!
I have been anxiously waiting for this episode. Better than any program on tv
This is beyond fascinating Justin!!!!!!!!!!!
dude you make the best bush vlogs ive seen yet! epic journey mate, thanks for inspiring me to go deeper into the wild
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 ....
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
This is the best thing i have seen today, keep up the great videos young feller.
Thanks Ricky
Rod and gun constantly within arms reach. A true Canadian.
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
My hat is off to you sir. Your one tough guy.
Great job Barbour once again and great timing with all that’s going on in the world now. Keep Heather, Sak, Bear and yourself safe buddy !
Thanks Rorbert we're glad to have you along buddy
