This is an awesome video! I grew up in Southbranch & there are ALOT of beautiful camping spots there. The mountain views are breathtaking also. That tent set up is AMAZING! LOVE the grill. DEFINITELY an unforgetable camping experience. I hpoe to do this with my son soon. Thanks for sharing.❤❤
@carmeliaoquinn8608 thanks! The best part of my childhood was out there, so many great memories and good times. Such a beautiful place I always enjoy my time there, and glad you enjoyed the video!
Nice tracker! Be careful without fender flares, I broke my side mirror that way, doing about 80 on gravel and my back tire threw a rock into my mirror. That was in my 2012 dodge dually on 35s, 9 feet wide lol
@CanadianSledDog oh my paint job is getting a hard going over lol, but I do have lots of parts. I actually put on Honda accord mirrors, as the stock ones don't fold in and I was having to replace them quite often
Watched the whole series!
Rocks in Newfoundland? Who knew!
Air crash site: All of the aluminum, unknowingly at the time, was carted away years ago and salvaged by family members of the local band chief. Maybe another sign should be erected at the site to "thank" them?
@hippocrazy4214 thanks for the extra info!
The cape st George bread oven is a nice stop if your in the area youve never tried bread until you've had some
@@Shadow-gk3yi I've heard but never tried it. Guess that's gonna be on my to do list lol
Awesome video buddy lots of back roads to explore down my way on the west coast
@fathersonoutdoors7487 I'll get there one day buddy, I'm thinking chimney cove might be our next adventure out by trout river
I love this show…. anyone know where to find all the seasons…. I must have watched them hundreds of times…. this show truly saved me in some of my darkest times ❤
@Simrata_ same here, I've been watching it since it first come on TV, never get tired of it either! Definitely one of my life goals to make it to the set and I finally did. Sometimes I see people selling the complete series on kijiji but not very often.
@@offgridadventurers lol I’ll continue trying to find it…. a few youtube channels have it uploaded but not the complete set… oh well I’m happy I get to see others who enjoy it as well :)
@Simrata_ I've been watching them on Facebook, way better quality and all the episodes are there. Just Google "north of 60" and look for the Facebook episodes
@@offgridadventurers thanks so much for this information ❤️ I feel a North of 60 marathon in my near feature 😊
@Simrata_ haha definitely!
Late getting to this one due to being moving around on our boat in not so cellular friendly places………..never tried that restaurant before but will take your word and give it a try sometime………that grill is a easy make Nelson……..nice footage buddy.
@codraven57 thanks buddy, I could of made the grill but time is rare these days for fabrication lol. So busy hard to get time for anything, still trying to get time to watch more of your videos too, but I'll get there!
Great area and footage guys.
@@codraven57 thanks!
Found your channel last week, awesome videos cant wait to explore the area. heading there next week for some camping and overlanding with my jeep.
@@BCRichWarlock08 I can show you some cool spots here if you want to meet up!
@@offgridadventurers sweet man , sounds like a plan. Im gonna be on the west coast for 12 days starting friday. You have facebook ?
@@BCRichWarlock08 yep nelson bennett, you'll know it's me when you see the profile picture!
Very well done. Thank you. I love that peninsula especially Cape St. George. Love to see the boot.
@@user-co2jy6mz3lThanks! I've already been planning a trip out there to do a video. Will be getting at it soon!
I enjoyed the video, been there a few times.. What is going on at the Kippens river? Romains I guess it's called.. Looked like construction or something. I remember when the old bridge was there, That area was a hot spot for us, fishing sea trout, smelts and in those days the river was open us kids would trek up the river fishing. Good Times.. Loving your videos, being from the area it's nice to see the area again. Take care stay safe..
@dunk22 they're building a new bridge at the end of kippens, foundation is bad on the other one. Really glad your liking the videos! I'm trying to get most of the interesting stuff on the west coast covered, and by next summer we hope to travel across the island more to do some videos there too. I myself like the waterfalls up in romains, alot of people didn't even know they existed but it's a beautiful spot and a great hike. If you know of any other spots around that could make a good video just let me know and I'll see what I can do!
Good video. Do you ever hear the Bushman clap from the woods ?
What is the reason for the swap?
@eugenedenny9119 these trackers have a boxed in chassis which causes them to rust out easier in the climate we have here. The chassis that was under it was all full of patches so I replaced it with a solid one. I sprayed the inside of this chassis with fluid film, hopefully slow down the rusting process lol
Another great one my buddy very informative and excellent footage of the sinkhole and of the pond. That is the first I heard of that pond , that is very interesting indeed, if I was guessing there was an underground drainage somewhere in that area that collapsed and the water can no longer drain the way it once did, just my guess I'd really like to know more about that. Was eerie seeing those cabins underwater. Great Video as usual my buddy.
@tuckerandi thanks Garry! There is some information on Google for bottomless pond, apparently it's still slowly rising yet. I didn't hear of it till a few weeks ago myself when I seen a buddy post it on Facebook. It's close to lomond sinkhole so we did both places at once. Been spending more time doing the editing to try to do better videos, as frustrating as editing is lol
@@offgridadventurers Ohhhh I hear the pain on editing LOL. Lot more fun making videos than editing them LOL You're doing a great job at them.
@@tuckerandi thanks and so are you!
Yep didn't take the dogs long to be in the water when you stopped, I can relate lol. That was a beautiful spot, I'm glad I grew up on the Salt water and in the woods , wish I still lived by the ocean. Alder smoke definitely great smoke flavor, was talking to a guy last week who has a smoker and he uses alders to smoke a lot of things. Yep labs do take long to inhale their food lol. That looks Ike a dandy cooking grill. You got a great setup with that tracker and all , it can get you in AND OUT of hard spots lol. Awesome view from the top and spectacular drone footage as always. Looked like a nice cabin , Thanks for taking us along, have a great week my buddy.
@tuckerandi thanks Garry you too! And definitely something your familiar with, those labs sure love the water lol. The remote cabin is used for tour guides for hunting. The guy that was standing on the step, his father built it years ago. Starting to get things prepared for the table top mountain near Port aux basque, apparently on a clear day you can see nova Scotia from there. Also we will be returning to crash hill as a buddy of mine recently made it there on a shorter trail
Awesome video buddy nice place lots of great cook ups wicked time out
@@fathersonoutdoors7487 lots of nice scenery buddy, too bad the camera don't do it justice. Really something to see in person
We had the best of our childhood here. Our time on the quads was unforgettable.
@@user-rx9yr1sy2f definitely memories that we will never forget!
Lived on the Humber right in DL for 6 yrs boating in my backyard………………..been to the sinkhole a few times of course…………..the bottomless pond issue has happened way after I left the area……….great outing and footage buddy.
Cool video man. Next time drop in for a visit!
@StevePittman-r5m will do buddy!
Great video, nice drone footage.
@@KenH-oo8zn thanks!
Great video buddy
@fathersonoutdoors7487 thanks! Managing to get a few videos in since I'm on holidays lol
One of those places no matter how many times you visit it still looks amazing
@Shadow-gk3yi I agree buddy! Nothing like seeing it in person, and the trip in there on the woods roads is awesome too!
That close…….. and……….oh well…….
@codraven57 ill be going again by the fall. My buddy made it there today. Found a little easier route
Great outing looks like!
@@codraven57 it was buddy, quite challenging but amazing views!
Hello and greetings from S.W. Ontario. We are planning a road trip to NFLD and Labrador and appreciate your back country videos. One comment. The way you are using your seatbelt in the opening if anything happened you may as well wrap it around your neck. Sorry to be so blunt but I've seen the outcome.
@richardguse3410 yea a scattered time I forget to put it on but not long before I remember. And if your coming down here let me know if your interested in exploring some spots....I can send you all kinds of gps coordinates of interesting places to check out! Next video I'm doing will be of the lomond sinkhole just outside of deer lake if everything goes as planned
I enjoyed the video. That round structures had a large bin on top of it, it was always filled with water or something, looked very green, it was tall. We would see them all the time when we walked the ridge behind it. In the 70's the quarry had a bunch of shallow ponds that would freeze over early before there was any stow or ice anywhere else, us kids would walk the trail along the cliffs (now Danny's trail) from port au port west and play hockey on them, no trouble getting a crowd to play hockey in them days.. Great spot to grow up.
@dunk22 that's awesome! Love hearing stories on the stuff I post. I didn't get into exploring much until the last few years and it's nice to hear of things that went on years ago in these spots. There's also alot of stuff from the quarry on the other side of the road too
@@offgridadventurers Yep, I pretty much knew every inch of it, spent a lot of time there as a kid. There used to be a warf we would fish off for mackerel and at both ends of the quarry there were tiny creeks that we would fish for trout. The last time I was there those creeks seemed to have disappeared, the first one was by the road that entered from the left as soon as you got to the bottom of the hill down into the quarry and the other one was at the far end as you were exiting the quarry heading into Boswarlos, some of it used to flow underground. Take care!
@dunk22 you too buddy and thanks for all the info and memories!
Wish I could of joined you but my bike. Needs tires found one so far
@Shadow-gk3yi that's ok buddy I'm sure we will get out on a journey soon!
Awesome video buddy nice bike
@fathersonoutdoors7487 thanks!
What you thought was mine shaft was actually part of a conveyor system that carried limestone the loading dock. The loading dock was a wooden pylon pier and you were correct in assuming the remaining wood structure was used to load ships. The Agiathuna limestone mine was an open pit operation that closed in the mid sixties . The circular structures you first looked at were part of a sea mining experiment that operated for a short time, I believe in the early seventies or late sixties and were not part of the limestone quarry. The piece of machinery with all the tubes was part of the equipment used to extract the minerals from the water pumped up from the ocean. I don't remember what minerals they were looking for at the time.
@user-hs5du9zd8l thanks for the info, always like learning more on places I've been. I believe they were after limestone there but not positive on that. I've heard recently there's an old asbestos mine on the other side of fox island that I hope to check out soon. Also, there's supposedly a plane crash site over there too, and may be the tail end of the plane still there. So much exploring to do just here on the west coast!
Great footage buddy……..awesome area too.
@codraven57 thanks! Nothing like being out in the middle of nowhere lol, love it
Great outing my buddy, I'd like one of those tents but I'd have to figure a way to get Tucker up there LOL. Awesome drone footage there, great footage all the way actually. Now that artwork was pretty cool indeed. They really got it cut out there don't they That log cabin could probably tell a lot of good stories. looking forward to crash hill attempt number 3 , would love to be closer . Have a great week my buddy
Man that would be so nice if you could come to our crash hill journey Garry buddy. I thought the same thing of the log cabin soon as I seen it lol. I'm sure we will get together sometime for a journey!
At the start of logger school road on the right side before the log balancers there is a old bus camper you can see it on maps and since the cut over now you can see it from the road
Didn't know that buddy, I'll have to check it out!
Great video buddy nice camping trip
Thanks buddy!
I'm probably the only person to have a North of 60 tatoo,and a signed picture of Fletcher in the old rcmp outfit hanging on my wall😊 best show
That's awesome! And I agree, I've watched the show multiple times now and never get t8red of it lol
Was that the second river crossing you turned around at with the broken bridge in the water ? Went out to that road a few days ago and didn't go past the first river
Yep that's it buddy, if I had a second vehicle I would of crossed it
@@offgridadventurers hard to believe that missing hunter drove in over all that
@@Shadow-gk3yi I'm still amazed they never found any sign of him. Kinda weird hey
@@offgridadventurers it is I read online that search and rescue heard a voice out there when they were searching
Another great video bud. Kep em comin
Thanks buddy, working on it!
At the end of the quarry where you turned back is the end of the Gravels Walking Trail, ( renamed in recent years ), probably the nicest hiking trails on the west coast. It travels all the way back to the causeway parking lot. Some of the coolest rock formations and little coves around.
Yes buddy I agree, it's a beautiful spot! And thanks for the extra info on the area, greatly appreciated!
nice video buddy. Elevation is usually measured in Meters
Thanks buddy! I was thinking it was measured in meters but wasn't sure
Great video buddy nice place
Thanks buddy!
it would be nice if you wnt back in the spring and do a film on those old vehicles.i honestly enjoy what you took a video on.interesting i say. thankyou for sharing this video on utube. waiting on the next one.
Your welcome buddy and yes I do plan on returning there again, maybe in the fall
The area where you seen the wood still standing in the water and you thought it was for loading boats, was actually the location of a pump house that pumped sea water in the process of sea mining which operated there until 1966. The lobster claws are the results of seal's they only eat the tails and body's.
Awesome buddy thanks for the info!
The tunnels are just natural erosion , the whole coast along the walking trail is full of them. I believe the tunnel with carts is actually to do processing quarry rock and not mining. The last time I was there there was bulldozer on top of embankment shovelling rock of top into dump trucks on the level you parked at. The large circular concrete foundations were tanks for processing and the object with all the metal tubes I believe was a boiler. The remains of the dock like structure by water was likely a tailings line for dumping waste product in to ocean. All speculation on my part after several visits there over several years of taking photos there. In my teens I worked in Sudbury at mine mill and everything is kinda similar.
Nice video. One of my favorite tv shows
You interested in doing some exploring? I got a bunch of other crash sites around stephenville to check out
Yes sounds good!
Too bad about Gerry's store. I miss the old coffee shop.
Yes I was hoping to see it too, I didn't know it got torn down till I got there
Good show north of 60s
Yes my favorite!
How do you get to the road to crash hill from gallants? We live in summerside, across the bay from Corner Brook. I just discovered your channel by chance in my feed. Good work!!
If you google search crash hill, you'll get the gps coordinates. It's near black duck siding. If you want to message me on Facebook I can send you some screenshots of the route to take buddy
My guess is early 50’s for the hood off a pickup. Probably lots buried there I’m sure. If that’s a slant 6 it won’t be a Newport because they all had v8’s……..maybe a valiant. It also looks like a Polara or Monaco but won’t be if that’s a slant 6. I’d say 70’s Valiant. Great views and footage buddy.
Thanks buddy! I believe your right on the valiant, I did some Google searching and seems to be the closest match. I got a funny feeling I'll be taking that ford hood home, love the look of it lol
