Ray Mears Videos: Northern Wilderness - The Unknown Pioneer

As mentioned in an earlier post, I became a huge Ray Mears fan a few years ago - and have watched nearly all of his inspiring bushcraft and outdoor skills based programs.

For Ray Mears there is one British pioneer who stands above all others in the exploration of Canada. That man is Samuel Hearne. In learning to travel using First Nations skills, he set the template for successful travel into Canada's wilderness. Hearne's story is defined by hardship and adventure, an inspiring tale made more powerful by the journal he left as a legacy. In a celebration of one of Earth's last great wildernesses, Ray follows in the footsteps of his hero's epic journey of over 1,000 miles.

Ray retraces the journey of explorer Samuel Hearne. He recounts the story of the British pioneer who set the example for successful exploration of the area, recording his experiences in a journal that has become his legacy.
