- In this episode, the women begin their way back, as they are more than halfway through the trip. But not before checking out what lays ahead for the next team, as they are on a height of land and the watercourse now begins a gradual drop towards Mohzabong Lake, the original goal for this outing. (Thwarted due to the road conditions in Part 1) The biggest benefit of a there-and-back trip is utilizing the portages and pathways they created on their way up. They quickly find it takes a fraction of the the time to travel them opposed to the time and effort spent creating them. Along the way, two women that have never portaged are empowered to give it a try, as the team cheers on their resolve and determination. The conditions are less than ideal on their return journey with thunder and lightning, as well as rain, but they continue with smiles and laughter. They finally end the day at the mouth of Cee Creek not far from their original camp 3 nights ago, as they celebrate the final night with another prank, drinks, and laughter. This covers day five.

You're a trooper David and the girls are hilarious. What a good bunch of women!! Everyone got along well which is amazing!!
Thanks Kathie! And yes, these bunch of girls were a riot. As you can tell, we had an amazing time!
Ok that was hilarious! Thanks for all the laughs and seeing such beautiful country. Makes me want to join!
You're welcome Suzanne! You should! 😉
Another great instalment - nice that you got to reap the benefits of your hard work on the way back 😉 That tiered beaver-forged lock system was super interesting! 🦫
Thanks buddy! Yeah, we flew through there in a fraction of the time. But you know that. 😉😄 Yes, that section has been nicknamed Dread Locks but the last women’s team! 😄 Super-fitting!
A man Intouch wid his feminine side.lol.luv it.luv the ladies going far beyond then many other laddie.its luv if passion that's pushed us and your painted toe nails that drives us farther.ty
😝 You bet! You have to love these women and their humour and love for adventure. It was a ton of fun with these women!
Wow...those ladies are tough sloggers on those portages and over the beaver dams.
You bet Jimmy! They were rocking!!
That was enjoyable to see a group, of people having so much fun out there after grinding it out!
Great stuff David🍻
Thanks so much Marc, indeed it was an amazing team. Overall, I've had great success with volunteers. Great folks!
Awww, I don't want this journey to end!
😔 Sorry. But there will be other teams! Another women's team later in the year, so stay tuned!
That network of beaver damns was super cool! Thanks for sharing partner! 😁
Yeah, a pretty unique section that the next crew aptly named Dread Locks. Anytime buddy!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks buddy!
Princess David is right, you had the toenails and face mask to prove it! hahaha! What a really good last night, wonderful! Looking forward to the last episode but also sad that it will be the end. :( :) Thanks for sharing. :) :)
🤦♂️😄 How embarrassing, but admittedly it was fun! Yeah, we had a few good nights, including the last. Definitely a fun/crazy group! 😁 Glad you enjoyed it but yes, it's unfortunately coming to an end. (There is another women's team that went out later in the year, so that's coming later!) Thanks Jacqueline!
@@ThePursuitofPassion Hope the next crop of gals are as fun as these! haha!
That beaver loch system is how most of the creeks in Alberta are (including the impassable part about it lol). Our creeks drop crazy fast down to the big rivers because the province is basically a 700m tall mud and sand plateau. If you want to see a cool beaver terrace, I have a video called beaver dams and burns, where we explored the sandhills of Bellis North Natural Area by bike. The beavers do some really impressive engineering work there, you can see it on Google satellite too.
Interesting, but not surprised too. I will definitely check it out. Cool that you are in Alberta. Hope to get there for a canoe trip. I hear northern Alberta has some awesome canoe routes that are not well documented. Thanks!
@@ThePursuitofPassion as far as Canadian provinces, I'd have to rank Alberta as the least canoe friendly province by a long shot. There is literally one portage circuit in the province and it has a ton of motorboats. Then there's the algae. At the wrong time of year, there's no water that's safe to filter, since you can't filter out chemical cyanotoxins released by the decaying algae. All that said, if it's a long river trip you're after, well the longest ones in the country start here. That and the far Northeast is basically inaccessible by car. There's the Peace-Athabasca Delta, which looks incredible. It's not that far from there to the Athabasca Sand Dunes either. I've never been able to get up there, logistically. I don't know anyone crazy enough to go with me either!
Yall are having a ball on this trip.
Hell ya! Maybe too much fun! 😄
Another great vid but next time you should at least show yourself doing some of the hard work. lol Just wondering what you had to carry to keep batteries charged and how in the world did you keep all you camera equipment dry.
Hey Bob, thanks!! I'll try, but often we are on the go and recording at the same time, so opportunites rarely exist. For short trips like these, I just bring extra batteries and keep the cameras protected as I can, especially for non-waterproof cameras.
