- See my complete gear list for this trip here goo.gl/Gh7PeQ.
This is a chilly April trip I did with my dog, a lively 9 month old Jack Russell Terrier. This little guy is built for this stuff and did great in my new Hammock.
Join Toby and I on this adventure as I talk about the trip, new gear, camp tips and head home in the hail.

Hi Troy, I really want to try crown land camping but I don't have the slightest idea how to find these areas in Ontario. Can you recommend any books, maps, URL's for anything that will further my quest to camp on these lands? Thanks!
Always enjoy your videos. Your laid back delivery is calming. I love dogs, so Toby zooming around the forest is a hoot. Keep up the good work.
Some of my favourite videos on TH-cam! Can’t understand why you don’t have bigger numbers .
I love rewatching all your videos. I love dogs and camping, I’m learning about canoes and canoe camping, and I have learned a lot from you! I love your way of working things to make them work better in the field! I hope you are enjoying life and your family and your dogs. Hope to see some more trips in the future!
So nice having you back at it. I unsubscribe to channels that go inactive all the time and I never could bring myself to dropping your channel, it was just so great and to be rewarded with even better content is the best part of a snowy work day. Thank you for coming back!
Thanks for sticking with me over the years and coming back, it means a lot. I do have lulls sometimes in my video releases but I'll always be back! Stay tuned for more, I have some new vids in the wings.
Excellent idea having the little gear loft tarp hooked up on the canoe as a shelter for Toby. Looks like he's taking advantage of it. Maddy had to rough it so much more with getting hit in bean with rain. She paved the way for him. :)
Ha... yup, Maddy took one for the team in those early days. Toby is the perfect size for that tarp as well as fitting in the hammock. He'll be coming on plenty more trips for sure.
Wow... I just had this pop up...I feel like a 10 year difference from the older videos and of course, Maddy. Great to all this. May your adventures be rich with your new companion.
You've been missed Troy. Quite the amusing dog. I like your innovations. Thanks Brian 77
I have found my solo boat is nigh unmanageable in any wind with just me and my pack in it. I have to put some weight in the ends. I have solved this by carrying a couple of large drybags with me ... and when I need some ballast, I fill them with water and place them at either end of the canoe. That way, when it is portage time, I can dump them out and not carry all that weight ... and then refill at the other side.
That's a great idea using the drybags with water. I think I'll be giving that one a shot, thanks for the tip and thanks for watching.
Good thought. They are self-portaging, which is a plus. You have to feed them I guess.
(Alas, I am dogless.)
Thanks again for the idea. I've been using it on my trips and it works perfectly. Just looked you up so I could give you a shoutout in my next vid.
So glad to see you out in boat again Troy, hope Maddy and Lucy are doing well.
I always enjoy your videos. Thanks for making another one. Your dog Toby is a good little dog. He seemed to enjoys himself very well
Great video sir. I always enjoy seeing your modifications of your gear. You give me great ideas to make my trips better.
Thanks man, I appreciate you letting me know. Hope you have a great season!
Awwww 🐶 so cute that dog! He really stole the show (and my heart. Lol)
They are great dogs. They can be a little much at times but that’s just how they are. My guy mylo adapt to our family and communicate with us very well. Especially when he needs something such as his toy the bathroom or food. He will make sure he gets ur attention. They are hyper and super fun dog if ur active. Not for home body people. These dogs sure loves to be outside and dig.
It’s official Toby is a hit!!! Reminds me of the old sitcom Frasier. He’s full of energy- great trip!!
I had a dog named Toby and he was the best dog I ever had.! I have encouraged all my other dogs since him.! Good luck with that.! Looks like you will definitely not have to worry about bears in camp with Toby establishing a perimeter..! Annie's dinners are far Superior with real cheese, unlike the KD that changed theirs recipe yet still call it original.! I called them out on this and they said it would take two years to change it back.!.Also you could almost flip Tobys tarp up for a small sail when going down wind.! Just found your show, so get ready for all my thumbs up. Thank you for sharing.!
Was great to log in and see you'd posted! Toby seems like he'll be a great canoe/camp dog for you. Looking forward to upcoming adventures!
Good to see you out. Always love your vids. Toby is fab. High to Maddie. Keep filming.
Thanks man, I appreciate that. Stay tuned, I have two in the hopper... just need to pull together some time to edit them.
Absolutely Brilliant! My Jack Russell and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
They had as a box of frogs... But so worth it.
Thank you 😊
I liked your Adventure and love your Dog I used to breed Jack Russell dogs And still have two we live on a Yacht and they go everywhere with me they are the most faithful and fearless dog’s A Bear wouldn’t stand a chance against Toby😁great show look after the pup. Cheers
Thanks, I agree with everything you said. I've never had a Jack Russell before but Toby has hooked me on the breed. Enjoy your little pack!
Trangia stoves are awesome. Once filled it goes 30 minutes.
And you can buy alcohol pretty much everywhere worldwide.
I’ve got the smaller sized set with 2 pots& a pan.
Thanks for uploading this. You're one of my favourites for this type of content.
Thanks man, I appreciate that. This was a fun one to do.
Great video! I visited Algonquin for a canoe trip many years ago and I love watching you and your dogs.
Thanks Jim, I appreciate that. I just got back from a 3 night solo with Toby so stay tuned!
yup those terrors (i mean terriers) are full of energy
Thank you SO much for posting again! I enjoy all of your videos. Toby is a tough adorable cookie. Look forward to more adventures. :)
Great video, love the new pup but I do miss seeing maddy running around👍
I hear you, I still call Toby "Maddy" at camp sometimes. Just know that Maddy is happy as a clam at home with the rest of our crew. Glad you enjoyed the video and my new star Toby, he's such a riot to travel with. I'm still getting used to the power of the Jack Russell, If only I could harness that power for good.
glad to see you back!
It's true that it only takes that one capsize. My parents spent 35+ years in the BWCA and finally got hit, badly. They flipped (capsized) in a rapid storm while out in the open, losing a bunch of expensive stuff, but worse: stuck on an island without real gear. They managed to stay safe enough overnight, huddled under the canoe, to get back to camp, but I think it was their last real backcountry trip. My pop said he wondered if they'd get out a all. Be safe!
Glad your folks made it out of that alright. It sure can be dodgy sometimes, especially when the water is freezing cold... not much room for error.
Glad to see ya again, love the jrussell, miss matty ....but she's probably doing fine at home.
Yup, Maddy's doing great! She's right here with me now. Thanks for stopping in.
I see your point of making the site look clean. How do you feel about leaving firewood and kindling for the next camper? Every camp site I leave, I leave enough kindling, split wood and logs ready for the next camper. You pointed out exactly a good reason for this.... If someone flips they will be too cold to have the motor function to cut and split wood. Seconds are crucial. I make a tittle lean-to with birch bark to keep the kindling dry. I believe this should be common practice, but you're lucky to get them to bring their garbage out. Hope I see you in the park sometime.
peace.
I think it's a nice surprise when you find prepared starter and/or wood. 90% of the time if I'm getting wood for myself I'll get more than I'll need. If I don't have a fire it is what it is. It really depends on my mood and situation at the time. Hope we cross trail someday as well. Enjoy the season and thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
Thanks Troy. Your videos always get me pining to be in the pines, in the pines where the sun don't ever shine...
Hi, great video, I would take a small blanket to put over the dog when he is sheltering from the rain next time. Jack Russell do feel the cold, I have had one and noticed this.
Just stumbled onto your channel and when I saw Jack Russell I had to click on to it. Lost my jack russell a few years ago, after 16 yrs of companionship . I always said they are wired for 110 volts and plugged into 220. Keep training him, they learn so fast with 3-4 short sessions a day of less than 15 minutes and he would have it usually in 2-3 days.
Only problem is protecting them from every thing, that they may attack, glad we didn't have bears and lions . I'm to old and disabled to exercise another one . He had been in 13 states and didn't care where you stay or what you eat, as long as he was with you.
Great trip with a cute little friend, although I must admit, I did miss Maddy! Thanks for sharing!
Great to see another of your videos out. Toby is an awesome addition. I switched to hammock over tent a few years back, will never willingly sleep in the ground again. Thanks for your work filming & sharing this.
Good to see you again, Troy. You have been missed. Greetings from The Netherlands
That pot handle is the bomb. Nice Ikea repurpose. You should do a video on your modifications. That hobo stove is a thing of beauty. Home dehydrated pasta sauce is fantastic. Dehydrated salsa is great as well. That trail popcorn with ghee is awesome. Toby is a keeper.
Thanks man, glad you like the mods. I'll be putting together a few shorter videos of gear lists and modifications for sure so stay tuned. Yup, Toby sure is fun... never a dull moment!
Jack Russell's are the best
So glad to see a new video from you in my feed. I love watching your videos during these long winter months in Ontario. Keep up the great work.
Yep they have some amount of energy
Thanks Troy... As usual another great trip video. Getting us pumped for the coming season! We have a very active border collie so seeing your high energy Toby handling the canoe so well is encouraging me to take her along this summer!
That's a great little dog. I had a Jack Russell , they are the best companions and full of character..
This was a great video! Loved meeting Toby! You did a nice job talking about gear and items that made the trip easy for both of you! Beautiful to see the forest, water and your fire at night, easy food too! Thank you!
Thanks Elizabeth, it really is beautiful out in the woods at night with a fire going. It's hard to capture the feeling but I keep trying.
Glad to see you posting a new video. Really enjoy the feel of your videos, like I am there camping with you and just having a conversation. Keep them coming. I know they are a tonn of work both on the trail and later on the computer but they are appreciated, especially this time of year.
Thanks man, I really appreciate that. That's certainly the kind of feel I'm going for and glad it comes through in the videos. I look forward to sharing future trips with you. Thanks for watching and take care.
Good to see you out again. I've always enjoyed warching your stuff. You've gained some gray my friend.
great video, if you've never had a jackie before you'll love em - he stay active and 'puppy' like attitude for life - they great dogs
Your videos are so amazing and Toby is the cutest thing in the world - what a wonderful successor on your beautiful trips. Always enjoy - please keep them coming!
Welcome back, Troy, good to see you back here on TH-cam. Great tips again and some really ingenious modifications you made there. Toby is an absolute star, I looooove Jack Russels :D!
Awesome! Great to see some new vids from you, and the young fella seems a worthy canoe camp companion.
I found this kinda by accident and I absolutely love this! Thanks for sharing! Sending love from sweden (that I recommend u visiting, great nature up here)
I'm glad you stumbled across it. I would sooo love to visit Sweden one day, it's on my list of places to go. Anywhere in particular you would suggest I hit first?
MaddyTheGoose One place u really shouldnt miss is the national park Abisko up in the north. Absolutely spectacular in its own way! But I would also recommend the west coast! Great for hiking, with both Nice coast lines and lush forests. Cheers!
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. My father-in-law is in Vancouver and I love visiting there, beautiful place for sure. I'd just have to get used to the fact that there are grizzly bears. I'm comfortable with black bears but brown bears would take some getting used to.
Great video, Troy. Great to see you how you keep things so light. And it's nice to meet young Master Toby. Love your videos, hope you put out some more.
Toby is a sport. Thanks for sharing. Makes me want to go out
Glad to see another trip. Looking forward to the next one.
Haha, Toby he's insane but cute as hell.
Missed all your videos and all the knowledge. This just made my week!
Great to see you out and about Troy, Toby is great !! hope all is well with Maddy. Look forward to the next vid. Thanks for sharing
Awesome to see you're posting video's again!! Hope we get to see a lot more of you and Toby!! Quite the character...lol
so glad to have found your new videos, great work as usual. Your previous work really helped me a lot to get going and do some canoe camping. The popcorn is fantastic, I will definitely have to try that one with my grandson this summer. Many thanks
Always worth the wait for your videos. Take care and until next time, happy paddleing.
Great to see you back Troy awesome trip definitely looking forward for some more videos hope all is well with you and family thanks !!!
Great trip, thanks for posting. Toby looks like a handful but adorable.
You have it exactly right!
Thank you for sharing your trips with us. I get inspired to go into the woods myself, and make improvements to my kit. And thanks for making better programs than the tv networks 😃
Hello Maddy. Just a heads up about that harness on Toby. If he goes to ground with that on it is highly likely it will snag on underground roots trapping him. I would not leave a harness on my dog off the lead. I have kept a number of Jack Russell terriers and they will eventually follow some animal underground at some stage in their lives even if normally discouraged from doing this. It is also possible for a harness to snag on branches in the undergrowth which is where terriers love to be. I am only commenting to help avoid a tragedy.
Welcome back! What a cute little dog. He's going to be a good companion for you on your trips. I like your choice of hammock and tarp since I have the same ones. Keep these videos coming.
Great suggestion on the coffee. I'll try it your way with a pour through filter as a strainer from one cup to the other
Another great video! Wow Toby is a bundle of energy!
Enjoyed the insightful video. Thanks for taking the time to film and edit.
It feels so good to watch your videos. Excited for more! Keep up the good work. Cheers!
Great to see you back on TH-cam. It’s also great to see you trying out the hammock, nice set up.
Great video ... Really enjoyed it. Look forward to seeing more. Wish I had Toby's energy!! 😎😎
Good to see ya back. Toby's a hoot too. Cheers!
Awesome ! Can’t wait for later to enjoy this ! Glad to see you out and about ! You are part of the reason I started canoe camping !✌️
Thanks! Hope you've had some great canoe trips.
MaddyTheGoose Indeed, they have been awesome !✌️
where have you BEEN! So great to see a new post! And that little guy is an absolute pistol! haha!
Great to see you back at it Troy. Great video.
Nice to see you post a video again. Now I want to go canoeing!!!!
I want to go canoeing now too! Thanks for tuning in...
YEEEYYY !!! You're back !!!
The other day I was watching your old vids with maddie.
Bear hug from Puerto Rico !
Missed you Troy. Welcome back. Nice trip.
Glad to see you back!
YES! thanks for the great video!
I can’t believe how many animals are called Turbo including my little guy 🇨🇦ON. Paul
Watched a load of your vids now and you do some great stuff. I'm looking forward to your new vids. Wales uk
Excellent video as always. I am a long time Warbonnet user and my rig has seen me through many trips. I'll never go back to a tent.
I love tube he always playing
Keep it up man, your videos are excelent and they do inspire me to go more camping!
Great video again Troy. I was out at that same time I think but at Tim River access. We were going to stay out for 7 days but when the hail turned to rain with a temperature of around 1 or 2 we decided not to risk hypothermia and bailed. Love the inventions and you taking the time to explain the thought behind each one.
Love ur videos
Thanks! Love you for taking the time to tell me that.
Great video, just sub and looking at your older video, can't wait to see new ones. Toby is such a beauty!!!!
Thanks for the sub Martha. I have two trips in in the wings now. Just need to get them cut up and out the door so stay tuned!
Great video! Awesome to see your adventures. Well put together and looks like Toby had great time!! :D
New subscriber, so far I really enjoy your videos. Thnx for sharing 👍
Thanks man, glad you're enjoying them.
MaddyTheGoose not sure how I found you, maybe from joe robinet? Either way I'm glad i found your channel. Love the 40+ minute or much longer videos. Better than T.V. 👍👍
Great video. Toby is a riot. Very similar to my dog who is a bit bigger but i swear she has got some terrier in her.
Nate
Well done! Always enjoy watching your videos - keep up the great work, and thanks for sharing! :)
Always enjoy your videos, especially at this time of year!
Great choice with the Warbonnet ! I had the blackbird for five years ! It was awesome. But I am a side sleeper so I switched to the Warbonnet bridge hammock called the Ridgerunner. Total bliss ! Also the Trangia alcohol Stove is wonderful,I have been using one for a while and really enjoy it on canoe camping trips ! Cheers ✌️
Can't argue with the Warbonnet gear for sure. I'm a side sleeper as well and have been managing if I really go seriously sideways in the Blackbird. Having said that, been curious about the Ridgerunner. Would like to try it out sometime.
MaddyTheGoose Sure, and another thing.With the Ridgerunner, set up is very fast. The Lynx underquilt attaches easy and is simple .There simply is zero fiddle factor. Enjoy !
Just found your channel...LOVE IT! Great practical info, entertaining (Toby is quite the co-star), good camera work and your laid back, easy going vibe! New subscriber! Keep 'em coming, please and thank you!
Thanks so much, it means a lot to hear that. I have two in the hopper but I just need to carve out some editing time. Stay tuned and thanks for sub my friend.
Excellent always like your vids. What happed to Lou? You got yourself a great traveling companion there. Well done.
Lou was keeping Maddy company at home, they're all buddies.
Good little feisty young pup. Just subbed. Looking forward to all your videos.
Thanks for the sub Georgette, I'm editing a new video now so stay tuned!
I love your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Terrific video Troy! Glad to see you get another one posted. Understandable that it took so long… Editing a video that long is a project. It was definitely a weird spring and summer last year with the weather. Hope you got out more than once. I absolutely love your new dog… He looks like a blast and hope to see him again. Happy new year and God bless!
Hey Buddy, good to hear from you again. I actually got out for a fair number of trips last year. Two with the kids and a few solos which I have in the wings so stay tuned. You'll be seeing more of Toby for sure, he's a lot of fun to travel with and nothing brings him down. He handles bugs like a champ and can always make me smile when things go sideways. He also sleeps well in the hammock with me so that's a huge plus since if I'm going solo it'll be in a hammock from now on.
Thanks for this. I'm going to share it with some of my camping buddies... one of them has a Jack Russell...
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for sharing!
👍😎 your video was so amazing you're such a great cook 👍 I subscribed you I look forward to so many more your videos James Kansas City Missouri
