    Disclaimer: We had to detour from our original plan on this trip, due to extremely low water levels. We felt this was the most sensible and safest decision. Some people have reached out to express some concern about this detour and the reservation system. This was the first day the park had reopened. It was incredibly quiet at that time. Before rerouting, we used our GPS device to contact a family member to check camping availability on other lakes. All lakes were completely open. We would never take a reserved campsite from a fellow camper, and we definitely wouldn’t want to encourage others to do that....Hope you guys enjoy the film!

      One of the great beauties of a wilderness trip is responding to the environment. Good on you guys to check but even if you didn’t your well within the traditional to move through the landscape more favourable for travel. In a tent set up, your not bothering anybody even if you had to crash “their spot”. Anybody on here who throws you shade for doing it needs to get out an challenge themselves more

    Now, I’m venturing farther from the cities and the insanity still cutting and splitting wood, building campfires and watching nature and the dark stary night in wonderment. Thanks for the trip.

    Absolutely beautiful video! I've kayaked numerous rivers and lakes for most of my life and have always dreamed of paddling through Algonquin Park, but have reached a point in my life's journey where it's just not physically possible anymore. Being able to follow along with your journey thru this video helped me to feel like I was there in real time. The sound of the paddle in the water. The loons. The quietness of the lake. The rustle of the wind in the pines. Oh my... I can't thank you enough for this video!!

    We use to go camping up there almost every summer. We even did the portage at Lake of Two Rivers. At that time we would even drink the water right out of the lake. This would be in the early to mid 70's. Some great fishing up there. Thank you for bringing back a childhood memory.

    My first solo trip was at Algonquin. Came to the park with father, three sisters and one of them had brought a friend. Oh yeah,, like I REALLY wanna spend a week with four sisters. Almost immediately I noticed a small 10 foot aluminum canoe at the outfitters. Barely thicker than rolled tin foil, 28 pounds and faux painted birch bark on the outside. I traveled a portage route to the west from the southern tip of Lake Opiongo (sp?) that was supposed to be a five day trip. I kinda did an over achiever thing and completed in just more than three. I remember mosquitoes, clouds of them, horseflies in the upland forests, one HUGE bear,, who walked off disgustedly muttering, "There goes the neighborhood." Made lots of mistakes,, and then hitch hiked back to Lake O with the canoe. I think the second car by helped put the boat on top and took me back to camp,, and my sisters who hazed me for only being gone 3 days instead of 5. As sweaty and stinky as I was, I did not mind laying in the lake as my sisters played on the beach the next two days.
    58 years ago. Just got back from Deso/Gray in Utah 86 miles of Class I to Class III, low water right now,, lotsa rocks,, boney. and these days, I don't shorten my trips,, I stay out as long as I can.
    Great video. Nice to see the park has changed so little in 60 years.

One year, the only other humans (2) we met and said hello to turned out to be my brother in-laws grad students from Pittsburgh! The stories we could tell! Bears, Moose and other miscellaneous critters abounded! GPS was a futuristic dream. The bears probably still laugh at us listening to their ancestor's tales. Good Presentation.

    Wonderful v.log. I've done many adventures in my life across a spectrum of navigational modes. In 2005 I did my first PCT hike (one of a few). There was a AZDPCTKOP festival going on. The winner of the 'gear contest' was a person who had their PCT itinerary in hand and ripped it up. It was very symbolic of an adventure. The truest mark of a great adventurer is to create an itinerary... and then proceed to rip it up as you go along.

    • @CanoeTheNorth
      @CanoeTheNorth  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I totally agree. When things don’t go exactly to plan is when the real adventure begins. Would love to do the pct. Looks amazing. Thanks for the comment.

    VERY beautiful! I still remember a canoe trip way up in Canada. In but a few days the “noise in my head” of civilization faded and there was such peace! I REALLY did not want to leave. I really prefer to find a good place to camp and then explore from there instead of packing up and moving each day.
    Mosquitos could be heard during this program. Even though one’s vision is reduced a but a full upper mosquito net suit to me, beats trying to used repellant. FWIW

    Great job and great location, I've paddled the complete Nip river a few times as well as cutting up through to Maple...Used to stay at a cabin I call red camp, an old loggers cabin before it was refurbished and used as an Algonquin rental. Absolutely loved seeing all the moose along the river. We used to go in at Kearny and get picked up a week later in Brent the other side of Mattawa. Did it twice one year, 1st one in the park in the spring and last one out in the fall, now that was a good year lol

    • @CanoeTheNorth

    Beautiful video. I am aware of how much time it takes as a sidebar, much less t he quality of what you shared.
    On a side note of significance. I've been going to and travelled 3/4 of the park and had office job. I'm now 58 and having shoulder replacements. I also had a desk job and became deconditioned but went hard at it in beginning of May like I was in shape. It will cost you. Condition prior to trips or take it easy. Pushing in wind or steering wears more than you know. You are way to committed to the experience to risk not being able years later. Love your vids and hope you can continue for many many years. Wish I knew. Best to you both!
