Episode description
With his dog Saku, he explores the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. In 2017 they crossed Newfoundland - 700 km by foot, snowshoe, and packraft. In 2018 with the support from the Royal Canadian Geographical Society and Mountain Equipment Coop, they began a crossing over the Labrador Peninsula on foot and by canoe. It was a 1,700 km dream project and a way to share some of these last undeveloped wilderness areas. In the end, their goal of reaching the shores of Hudson Bay fell short by 700 km as high winds pinned them down for 28 days. You can learn more about these journeys at newfoundlandexplorer.com.
