My grandparents, Donald and Viola Morris, and great grandfather, Percy Morris, were lighthouse keepers on Isle Haute. My dad, Sheldon Morris, lived on the island as a small boy. He said he and his brother would sit on the cliff edge and throw rocks.

I was lucky enough to stay a weekend on the island about 25 years ago.We charted a fishing boat out of Halls Harbour .
Going out Friday was perfect.
Sunday was a different story.Had about 25 in the group and had to row out to the boat picking us up.
I bailed water steady out of the rowboat as the waves were going over the sides.
A big relief getting back to shore.

As a kid I lived in Morden and could see Isla Haute from the window. I have always wanted to go there and have imagined what it would be like. I'm 40 now living in Ontario and wonder if I will ever do it in person. Now I feel like I've been! This is awesome!

I don't know how this ended up in my YouTube feed, but I'm glad it did. What a great video!

Nova Scotian here....I've never looked at the Bay of Fundy from this perspective before! Now I have to take a drive down and check out this Island...safely from the mainland, that is! lol...awesome video and skill!!! Thank you!

This channel WILL go places, as long as Noah keeps publishing content. They haven’t gotten much love yet, but this quality level of videography can’t fly under the radar forever.

Awesome trip.

That was wicked scary for this girl of the prairie.
Hats off to you all for that accomplishment. I loved watching it all. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

That shot @11:03 is unbelievable. Seeing the two currents meet at such a defined point is really something special.

Amazing! The Bay of Fundy is unique and it’s rare to see great pieces like this. Thank you so much🇨🇦❤️

I have a huge family history there! Would love to go! My great great grandfather was the light house keeper for 11 years. His daughter was married on the Island Capt Nelson Card

That's so great, I've looked over the Bay of Fundy at that island many times, so cool to see it close up.

A brave venture guys! The isle is clearly visible from uncle's cottage .. had no idea about the difficulty of crossing the tides. The history is fascinating!

[CanadianSmoke]

What a wonderful vid... it was the perfect equation of mathematical tension, craft beer, history and sans ghost stories!!

[garyweybright]

Ok this deserves some serious respect! Holy moly! Hats off to the group ! Great video! ClaudiaSJI

That's an excellent overnighter. Nice to travel with experience kayakers because those are dangerous waters to navigate. The Bay of Fundy is on the fall bird migration route. Champlain camped one winter on an island out from St. Andrews in 1604 or there abouts. They had a tough winter. The area is full of early North American history. Thanks for explaining what happened geologically to create the Bay of Fundy way back when.

I especially appreciated your explanation of the geology and the crustal earth movements that created the two fingers.

Visited this island many years ago, travelling there by fishing boat from Harbourville. What a great experience. Now a National Protected area and authorization must be obtained prior to visit.

The most fascinating part to me and what kept me interested in the story was having to use the tides, wind, and even just timing, to navigate. Because you're barely able to move yourself in terms of a global position. So you have to plan on these very slow giant time scale things. And especially where you've got the most massive tidal changes anywhere on the planet. Thanks for making my brain work a whole bunch extra! In the beginning of the story I wondered if you guys were going to overshoot the island because of trying to push so hard.

Every time I visit the coast, here in New Brunswick I stare out to the Isle de Haute in wonder and amazement. Thanks for taking us all on your journey over there!! Incredible work gentlemen
