Facing the Unknown: Into the NorthWest Passage
Ойын-сауық
We're officially in the thick of it now, folks. Every day is a grind - endless stretches of open water, muscles screaming in protest, and the constant battle against whatever weather the Arctic throws our way. But let me tell you, the payoff is unreal.
Crystal-clear water reflects the never-ending summer sun, chunks of ice pierce the horizon, and the whole place is bathed in this crazy, 24-hour daylight - it's like living in a beautiful, bizarre dream.
Just when you think you've got the rhythm down, the universe throws us a curveball. One of our key pieces of gear needs some serious TLC, forcing us to get creative and rely on our resourcefulness. It throws a wrench in the plans, for sure, and we've got some tough decisions to make about how to move forward.
The journey isn't just about the physical grind and the unexpected. It's about the incredible wildlife encounters too! From majestic whales breaching right next to the boat to playful seals popping up to say hello, the Arctic is teeming with life.
Join us as we navigate the beauty and challenges of the Northwest Passage. What kind of crazy situations or incredible wildlife encounters do you think we might experience next? Let us know in the comments below!
A big thank you to all the Skotes and supporters that helped make this trip possible. You crossed our minds everyday up there.
P.S. Don't forget to subscribe to Skote Outdoors for the latest updates on our Arctic adventure!

Amazing journey. Thanks for sharing.
I came across your channel last year when you were denied permission to cross into Canada. What an adventurous young man you are. Fantastic videos. Be careful out there. Love watching 😊

naw thank you Linda, a lot has happened since that trip. really appreciate your support ❤️
This is awesome. Looking forward to seeing the rest
Matty! What a jaunt!!✌️🤟
What a brutal yet beautiful trip that must be. For those that haven’t spent that much time living inside there own head probably struggle to understand how truly difficult this trip would be. Cheers Boyz.

yes the internal battle was the most difficult part at times. Some days the hours would zoom by, others not so much.

I wish I could do a journey like that with you. We appreciate you bringing us along but when 30 days of adventure goes by in 12 minutes one has only to wonder…. “How much have I missed?” What an adventure!

you are totally right, alottt is left out. we have terabyte after terabyte of footage from this trip. This four part series on KZread is just scratching the surface, but luckily we have partnered with a network and will be releasing a full length documentary later this year. That's the one we are excited to share with you!

Hey man, put a link somewhere so I can buy you a coffee or something. I don't think you get 100% of the "super thanks"option here. If you're ever in NS and need a place to stay or some food to eat, I'll trade stories for lodging on my small farm! Thanks for taking us along on the adventure!
