Lots of fun to watch,thanks guys.

This is not south central ontario. It's called near north or north central.

This video filled me with joy. There is nothing better than going on an adventure with friends that you can trust and have likemind ideas. I've only so fare been on wilderness trips with my canoe but I also dream about exploring more technical rivers in the future.

Exciting trip my dudes. Wish I could have been there. 🌲 Paddle on!

What a great view! 💙

Hi David. It's too bad that if you buy one of these from North Water they don't include Ben for the bow, lol. Happy travels my good man.

Thank you so much. I'm in my 70s now and my wild river paddling days are behind me. My paddling partner and I had intended to run this river in the late 1980's but life seemed to get in thr way and thwart our plans. While it was sad to see so much of the river tamed by dams, it was still a grest pleasure to follow your adventure and to get to see, though vicariously, that thre is still unspoiled beauty awaiting adventurous souls.

Drilling all those holes in a canoe? No way I'd do that ... I don't even like the holes for the grab ropes on either end. No non no ...

What remains of Fearless Rapids is sooo sad. Progress, eh?

I wonder if they still have that big thermometer outside of white river. Didn’t they have the record low there? Beautiful country. I miss northern Ontario. Good memories.

Too funny drying your gotchies!

Got to start carrying a Silky Katanaboy for trees like at 15:50! 😆

Fantastic! Currently doing a custom design.

Just beautiful ❤

Throughly enjoyed watching this documentary 👌 very impressed with your whitewater skills which made it so fun to watch! Not sure if your still posting new videos on this channel, but I subscribed & look forward to watching what is here. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences ❤

Such an AUTHENTIC adventure guys, you really MADE it your own - super well done! Oh my gosh, it must have been even more INSANELY beautiful in its original form.. the glimpses of the past clearly SHOUT beauty.

My friend's cottage is the first on the left. Half the Shawanaga Lake boat launch is their property. Another friend of my has a cottage just as you exit Shawanaga River into Georgian Bay. I should probably do this river sometime. So much crown land!

We miss your videos……….you always did an outstanding job!

I've been up around White River a few times, never on it. I can't believe how amazing that river is. Thanks for a the journey. Perhaps one day I'll try some of its easy rapids. Will have to get a rock solid canoe now.

Very nice David. Lost my Mom this past February. They are never forgotten and always loved. Hope you all are well. Glen

Just today came across this video which brought back some memories.. I did this river with a group of 12 Junior Rangers(6Canoes) on/about 1969, watching your video only confirmed my memory of its harsh river conditions.. I don't recall no Federal Park office back in those days...I was working for the old Department Lands and Forests in those days.. at 75yrs, I wouldn't dare try canoeing it today... I would have been 19yrs old in 1969. We all had Cedar Strip Canoes in those days and had to stop several times to patch the canoes from rock damage with spruce/pine gum pitch.

Very interesting Well done vid Thx. .

Where or how did you hide your packs before hiking up to silver peak. Weren’t you worried to return and not find it. Stolen by a bear or possibly another hiker?

Hi David, My friend Jm and I watched your series on the White River before we se out on the Upper White in 2021 and the Lower White in 2022. Right now, I am working on the video of that trip and was hoping to detail some of the sources of our information.. Not sure how TH-cam does this, but would you be ok if i picked a single 10 second cut of your video to reference your series on the White River ? No worries if you would rather not. Thanks for the great information. It certainly was a fun river to paddle!

Just finished this series once again, I always get melancholy at the end of my own trips, as much as watching these trips again and again. I hope you are doing well and at peace wherever you are

what were the spices!!!! common telll me about the SPICES!!!!

Any plans to come back my friend?

how long is this canoe? 15''or 17''?

really cool! are the canoes 15 or 17''?

Great video! When did you do this trip? Late April or Early May?

it all look ez but fun good times

Hello, thank you for the excellent footage. Do you know the possibility of encountering Moose on this trail? Is it something you prepared for?

Being a poker player, a drummer, fly fisherman, Jeep tripper, expedition canoe tripper………..lol makes me extremely superstitious at times……..man after all of that, I’m not sure about the trip??!!

Wow what an incredible trip / video! Just subscribed looking forward to watching more! Cheers

Good work guys , great footage ,. thank you

Was it worth making all that effort, pulling the canoe instead of paddling?

Finishing this trip for the 4th time! Hoping to do this trip next summer! Hope to see you upload again soon - I know that even without videos over this long span, that you have certainly been on the water! I hope you are doing well!!!!

Revisiting this series again and again! Will you be back anytime soon brother?

Very well done , young fellows excellent video , great narration, beautiful scenery. Thanks for taking us along for the ride .👍

What map/maps did you use on your trip?

I have a set of the same NRS bags. Hope those are better than the ones I have. First time I blew them up the dump valve completely came apart. Same with a soft cooler of theirs, just fell apart

was there about 30 years ago!

The caterpillar is an imperial moth (Eacles) caterpillar

do you remember roughly what dates you did this trip? Do you happen to remember the CMS was at the time?

Are you gone forever?

Following "road" at start finishes at dogfish lake.

19:15 Everything is easier in a Canyon, except for carving and turning.

17:05 The bow paddler is fantastic. Having a bow paddler like that makes all the difference in the world. I love paddling from the bow like that but at 220 pounds I'm too heavy for it in serious rapids and the boat nose dives. I always end up in the stern wishing I had a better bow paddler.

Just stumbled across your channel. I watched the whole series near Ardbeg. Great adventure. My shiny new carbon kevlar 17' Swift Prospector would not like those rock :/ Keep up the great videos.

I wanted to see the North water cover here I've seen them a lot in the bush but I've got a cover that needs to be finished for a boat that I've built and paddled for 20,000 km at this point. Then I want a North water cover for a Northstar canoe from the states that I want to get but the North water guys I guess should mention that it's contact cement both sides of the cement are supposed to dry that's how the cement works so I hope your patches stick.
