100 mph tape always a life saver. I repaired dry bag lower shpulder strap attachment with it and held up fine for the trip. I have about 5 yards wrapped on the shaft of my double bladed paddle for repairs, deep cuts, or sprained ankles. Enjoyed your adventure.
I cant say I have heard of that but I just googled it, nice! I normally bring a couple feet and on a whim threw that roll in last minute. I used it all and could have used some more but it held. I will never go with out a roll again. Good idea putting it on the paddle! Thanks for the recommendation and watching the video!
Beautiful route and a tough trip - bravo! I did the Beartrap River about 12-years ago with a group of 5 in 2-canoes. We wanted to camp on Sunday Lake but the PMA was reserved by somebody else so we pushed through to Iron Lake. I'm a wet-footer but admit I wish my feet were dry, especially during the offseason of early-spring and late-fall. What kind of knee high boots are you wearing? They look neoprene? Thanks for sharing your trip!
@@BradfordKaneJr hey, thanks so much for watching! The Beartrap is a must route and my favorite way to get to Iron! I used to wet foot too and found these Muck Forager boots for my Quetico trip last year. They work great but I finally sprung a leak on this trip so I can’t say that they are durable for multiple trips. That said I beat them up really good in Quetico, lots of portage miles. Perfect for canoe trips other than that. I am looking for a replacement now.
Awesome man, way to grind it out! I know when I'm in a remote area, cant find any sign of a path and its a long portage I sometimes I freak-out a little on the inside. Was there a moment on this trip where that happened? Cheers!🍻
@@puddlejumper-sk haha ya, thx for watching. Ya, I was thinking I may have to turn around and go back the way I came! I was determined to figure it out but I was definitely concerned!
Hopefully Sealline warrantees that pack for you. That looked like a glue failure. Your pack looked pristine otherwise. Big bummer, especially the mental toll it takes when you are solo in a remote area.
Thanks for the comment. There was no signs of issues prior to the failure. I just cut my losses and bought classic style portage pack and liner. I appreciate you watching!
@SoloSchmitty The big tree at the front of the site gave it away. I stopped at that site for lunch last summer on a day trip from Gull where we were staying. I vowed I would get back to stay on that site someday.
Bravo! You just keep it up man. This is awesome and so glad you share your adventures. All your efforts are so appreciated 👍

Was your first night camp on Thunder Lake?
@@joelwondra yes it was! Well done!

@@joelwondra it’s an awesome tree for sure. Bet it’s old!
