  • Come join Lucy and I on a 5 day solo canoe trip in Algonquin park that takes us on a tour around Cedar and Catfish lake as well as through a part of one of my favourite rivers, the Nipissing.
    With some good thunder storms and high winds, it was challenging at times but we managed to get some good tips and tricks in along with our regularly scheduled portage show!
    Leave a comment should the feeling strike you and a thumbs up or subscribe so you stay in a loop for the videos ahead.
    Thanks for watching...
    Much love,
    Troy

    I've watched this channel for YEARS. In fact, it's one of the first channel that hooked me into TH-cam.

      @MaddyTheGoose  7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Thanks, Maddy got a lot of great trips in and she stills comes on our family camping trips. The backcountry is just too hard on her now but she's a happy girl at home with the rest of the crew. Thanks for tuning in!

  • @TrumanSparx
    @TrumanSparx 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    So good to see you back! I discovered your videos about six years ago, the same summer I started doing back country canoe trips in Algonquin Park. Although we've never met, and you're younger than me, you are my mentor. We also have rescue dogs, but I've never brought them camping. Because I sleep in a hammock I'm not sure what to do with them. Congratulations Lucy on finding a great home!

    • @MaddyTheGoose
      @MaddyTheGoose  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm in the same boat as you concerning the hammock. I also picked one up (Warbonnet Blackbird XLC). I quite like it but I'm trying to sort out how to bring a dog with me. I like to keep them out of the bugs at night so they always sleep in the tent with me. I may be able to work something out with Toby since he's a smaller dog (Jack Russell). Stay tuned and we'll see if I can sort it out :) Thanks for tuning in!

  • @Laiynnalaiynna
    @Laiynnalaiynna 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good to see you back, Troy! Your channel inspired me to start doing solo canoe trips so I want to thank you for all of your efforts in sharing your adventures.
    Give a huge hug to Maddy for me, would love to see how she is doing :).

  • @arkade65
    @arkade65 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Glad you are back, always enjoy your videos. I love getting out in my canoe but we just don't have places like that in Australia, so I really love being able to come along with your trips.

    Hey you're back! Julia and I really enjoyed your original solo camping series, and we're glad to see more! We actually posted an Algonquin Park trip video series last year in the same area, and we even stayed at the same campsite! Great area... it's so incredibly peaceful up in the North side of the park. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work! :)

    I thought the. mosquitoes would be a bigger problem... What great timing.
    Thank you for sharing it!

    • @MaddyTheGoose
      @MaddyTheGoose  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      The bugs had their moment a little later on in this trip but for the most part they weren't an issue. Stay tuned though, I went with my son earlier in the year with bug suits and a bug tent and I don't think we would have stayed without them. Had a great trip but it really shows just how bad bugs can get. I'll be editing and publishing that video as well. Thanks for watching!

  • @rikwhite8150
    @rikwhite8150 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @MaddyTheGoose
      @MaddyTheGoose  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you sir. Funny you should mention that, that's why I released my first video. I had shot it to show friends and family what it's like out there but ended up releasing it in the middle of winter on youtube to chase away those winter blues. Worked out pretty well.

  • @cybeer67
    @cybeer67 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes ! You are back !!
    Must tell.. your initial videos changed my life and I started camping. Havent stoped ever since.
    Please include products reviews. I still use and love the portable toothbrush you once showed.

    • @MaddyTheGoose
      @MaddyTheGoose  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Lucy appears to be one mellow dog. Like the combo-fuel stove set-up -- perfect for such a trip. Glad it's you and not me, though, facing that 2.3K portage. Looking forward to the seeing the rest of the trip.

    • @MaddyTheGoose
      @MaddyTheGoose  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks a lot. Yeah, I'm really digging this stove setup. It's nice that if you run out of fuel you don't have to build a full on fire to boil some water. Just fire up the hobo and you're good to go!
