    Kudos for going the extra mile and filming your paddling away, the breathtaking drone shots, the eye for all the little details and of course the dragon fly sequence. And as always: editing and soundtrack are top-notch. Keep it going man, you got a loyal fan here.

    Xander, the quote, "He who does not look back to where he came from will not know where he is going," implies that someone who is cut off from their past may find it difficult to find meaning or purpose in life. Not sure why that quote jumped out at me, but it seemed to fit! Love your videos man, and thank you for putting yourself out there and making them!

    Another great vid mate. What a stunning place for a paddle. You sure are lucky to have so many good places to take the canoe. I fully resonated with you wanting to pull the pin on a trip. Same thing nearly happened to me over the weekend. I wasn’t in a good headspace and didn’t wanna film a trip, but persevered knowing that I would enjoy it, and sure enough, it was one of my favourite recent trips. Funny how it goes that way. All the best mate.

      Georgian Bay is very popular with boaters and canoeist/kayakers. Many of the islands have campsites with tie off points for boats and that’s what those metal rings were. Some areas seem quite wild while others have countless cottages dotting the shore line and many boat access only cottages on islands, especially in the south eastern part of the bay. There are also multiple parks and provincial parks on the bay, places like Killarney Provincial Park, Massasagua Provincial Park, Killbear Park, and several nature reserves. At the very top of the bay is Manitoulin Island, the worlds largest freshwater island.
