    You know something Shug, I for one never tire of watching your videos. No matter how many times you show you're eating, fishing, frolicking, hiking, hammock-ing, or just tom-fooler-ing around. We love it.
    You're one of a kind and you make the world a happier place because of your videos.

    Wonderful! I did my own 5-day solo trip in the bwca a few weeks ago. My first solo there. It was spectacular. In the 40s at night and the 60s during the day. I did manage to kill about 100 mosquitoes, and I also got about 100 bites, so the battle was pretty even and we called it a draw. When I came out of the woods and drove to the end of the Sawbill trail, it was 45° on the North Shore, and by the time I got down to the Twin Cities, it was 95° at home. I wanted to turn around and go right back into the wilderness! Great video! Glad you're able to enjoy more of the woods in your retirement.

    Did an 8 day paddle out of Snowbank Lake, with 26 lakes and 24 portages back in 2018. The BWCA is absolutely fantastic and a very special place. Anytime old Shug wants to paddle the BWCA with a well seasoned adventure seeker, look me up. No seriously, the BWCA will tug at your soul and suck you in and wrap its wildlife around you. It was everything I thought it would be and more. Loons, eagles, beaver, snowshoe hares, and grouse all made for a fulfilling experience. This is a place I could never get enough of.

    So good to see ya back on the water in the BWCA. I did my first solo last year with a Magic from Rockwood as well, and had one quick dump getting into the boat half way through the trip. Such a sudden and humbling experience. I love how this video shows the phenomenon of the quiet of the Boundary Waters, I think that may have been the quietest "woo-buddy" I've seen. :) I often find myself down to a whisper after being out there for a while.. Looks like it was a great trip, so good to get out there solo to really feel the natural world around you, but it also helps bring to mind an appreciation of sharing a good laugh with others as well.

    I will never tire of your videos, and would honest to goodness watch a live feed if you made one. I think my favorite part about watching your videos is being able to escape the dreary, horrible heat where I'm at, and see the untouched beautiful (and colder!) wonderlands you visit. Keep it up Shug!

      Loved when it got cool up there. Adds to the pleasure.

    You and others that canoe have inspired me, I plan to get my first canoe this next week, once I have kicked the Covid bug, made it 3 years, finally caught me. LOL. I started hiking and rustic camping in 2020 when the world changed. Found out I liked it, usually I do motorcycle trips, but am starting to see that my outlook on life or interests in life are changing, I long for more outdoor adventures. I was supposed to be on the Manistee River Trail now, but getting sick threw that trip onto a detour. Anyways, great video, nice Moose and Beaver; frogs were interesting too. Look forward to your upcoming canoe trip you mentioned in your latest hiking video. Stay safe out there.

    • @shugemery

      Just back from trip. Canoe trip is so different than a backpacking trip. Not better or worse. Just different for sure.

    Thanks for sharing. It's been a pleasure learning how to hang with your videos. I especially enjoy your trip videos. It gives me comfort hearing Karl from Sling Blade impressions and 'early!' lol. I need to try some medaglia d'oro instant coffee.

    Thank you Shug for this video and part 1 too. I was smiling through it! I had to work all summer with my nursing students and I haven't been able to take any trips. I have a week coming up and so this got me even more excited about where I am planning on going. Love from NC!

    Wow what a stunning foggy sunrise!! Reminds me of the sunrises we saw on Meeds Lake on our trips.
    I've logged many a TH-cam minute trying to obtain your wealth of knowledge as a hammocker. I've found it to be very helpful. I'm not as new to paddling but with only 5 years experience, I'm fond of the double blade while soloing. Still haven't mastered the short paddle. - bean

    And I think I watch every one of your videos at least twice within the first few days they come out.
    The videos with you and Kent I probably watch 10 times each.

    God. I haven't done a true portage in 30 years. 90lb Grumman; brutal. Bought a portage cart and it was a game changer. Bike wheels, gear in the boat. It's a little tricky over windfalls, rocks and roots but less back breaking.
    A thought on fishing; you may find fly fishing more enjoyable. All the action's on the surface and as a juggler you of all people will appreciate the art if the cast.
    Thabks for bringing me along on another trip. ;-)

    • @shugemery
      @shugemery  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is a beast of a canoe! Not sold on fishing yet but it eats up some daytime.
