5 Days Solo Camping & Fishing in Canadian Wilderness
After an epic failure on a solo camping brook trout fishing mission into an unknown canoe route, I had to come up with a plan B. After some quick thinking I realized I was only a couple hours away from a piece of paradise that I hold near and dear to my heart: Diablo Lake. I revisited the first part of the Steel River canoe route and once again had to conquer the notorious Diablo’s Portage. But it was totally worth it.
I got a little taste of everything on this trip from wildlife encounters to heavy rain, beautiful sunsets, delicious camp meals and the exact type of fishing I was looking for.

7-Day Wilderness Camping Adventure: Untamed River to Rugged Coast of Lake Superior
มุมมอง 8K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
Back in early May, I set out on my most challenging and most rewarding wilderness canoe trip to date. ​⁠@toshselfpropelled and I took on the lesser-known Jimmy Kash River which flows into The Dog River just above the famous Denison Falls eventually dumping out into Lake Superior. We camped our way through the woods facing anything and everything that old Jimmy Kash threw at us. Tosh’s video: th...

The Jimmy Kash River is a seldom explored river with very little documentation. @toshselfpropelled and I were enticed by the potential of untouched beauty in this remote area and had to see it for ourselves. We faced incredible challenges and seemingly endless obstructions in the river including half a dozen waterfalls but we agreed it was well worth it. I continue to be amazed at just how far ...

    Hi Ben! Another great video. I was wondering if you could talk a bit about how you deal with loneliness when out on your extended trips? I'm a fairly experienced weekend backpacker and have done plenty of 1-3 night treks on my own, but I have my first real thru-hike coming up where I'll likely see very few people for up to two weeks! I'll be downloading plenty of audiobooks/music to keep me entertained, but just wanted to know if you had any tips for staying sane when it's just you and the woods.

  • @xxx-wg3gr

    Sir, your video was actually more entertaining and watchable than most other "survival" vids because you don't c😢ome off a douche, trying to convince us what a badass expert you are. You're also a more likeable person compared to the bearded wonders with tattooed fingers, faces, arms etc. Again, you are humble and somewhat relatable, even to a salty old, former military instructor like me. I am grateful for your efforts to share your journey. As I watched, I was cheering you on and wanted so badly for you to produce a tarp, or a Mylar or plastic sheet of some kind to form the first layer of your roof, then the poles and pine boughs atop that. Your rock shield was absolutely beautiful and well employed. Brilliant! Keep it up. Thank you for not being a wannabe Tacticool, Killer Commando dickhead. TH-cam has plenty already. We're all good. I'll be looking for more of your work.

      It’s not for everyone, but if you’re thinking about it I say try it out and see how you feel. Start small - you don’t need to go to a super remote place. It’s a totally different type of experience when you’re alone, true solitude is hard to come by these days and you’ve got a way better chance of coming across some amazing wildlife. If you decide to go out let me know how it goes! Thanks for watching :)

    Such a lovely bit of camping, Ben! Even though your initial trip was found to be impassable, the pivot to Diablo Lake was a great call. We wonder how the reverse portage was down the steep incline/decline of the Diablo port was...downhill hiking is no easier than uphill, just different muscles working super hard. Another beautiful video, friend <3

    Deleting comments that are not malicious, or hurtful in any way is a recipe for failure. The market you are attempting to further saturate is captained by those that aren't afraid to recognize their shortcomings and actually make strides to improve their approach. Get a net. Stop dangling fish. Pinch your barbs when you are practicing catch and release. Stop deleting comments that aren't full of hearts and praise.
