Day 20 Video – Cochrane to Moosonee

We’re on our way to explore the far reaches of Northern Ontario, while the BMW, truck and trailer wait patiently back for us in the safety of the parking lot behind the Best Western back in Cochrane.

Ultimate Northern Ontario Road Show – EPISODE THREE

In this weeks episode, we travel from Sudbury to Elk Lake to sample the culinary delights and the mondo motorcycle-friendly Eco Centre. We do some team bonding at the side of the road fixing a flat tire on the trailer, and then visit the spa and wildlife preserve at Cedar Meadows in Timmins, before heading to Cochrane to visit Ganuk the newest addition to the polar bear habitat!

In the coming days we’re traveling up to James Bay, leaving the truck and motorcycle behind in Cochrane. We’ll take a trip out on the river and hopefully catch some whales! This is one of the most northerly areas we’ll be traveling to in Ontario, and we’re pretty excited. Not many can claim to have been this far north!

Day 19 – First Look at the 2 Year Old Polar Bear

This is Ganuk, the new bear at Cochrane’s Polar Bear Habitat. So playful!

Day 19 – Arriving in Cochrane

Getting ready to head up to James Bay, we have two stops before we hit the rails – the Polar Bear Habitat and JR’s BBQ!

Day 19 Video – Cedar Meadows Wildlife Park

We went for a tour at the Cedar Meadows Wildlife Park in Timmins. Some beautiful creatures here. Watch for full coverage in Episode Three!

And part two, with moose running!

EPISODE THREE – Teaser!

We’ve been shooting all week and have some incredible stories from the road. We picked up Jamie and Kelly for a couple of days, stayed at Halfway Lake Provincial Park, visited the Elk Lake Eco Centre and took a tour of their local food operations, headed to Timmins to stay with Richard LaFleur at Cedar Meadows and got to know his spa and wildlife park, as well as meeting the new polar bear at the Polar Bear Habitat in Cochrane.

Our big news is that we’re releasing Episode Three early, and doing a whole episode on our trip to James Bay. This is an area of Ontario few have ever travelled to, and we want to make sure it gets the coverage it deserves. So expect Episode Three sometime in the middle of the night tomorrow!

Until then, enjoy our teaser for Episode Three!

I’ve decided that eating the richest most delicious food all day is a great way to live. Except it must stop.
