  • Part 11 of 11.
    Come along on this extended cut video log of my solo canoe trip, well almost solo, I did it with my my dog Maddy. We made our way through Algonquin Park traveling 150km in all with 26 portages totalling 26km. There are a total of 11 videos that are each approximately 15 minutes.
    Hope you enjoy watching them as much as we enjoying putting them together.

    Troy, I wanted to thank you (and Maddy of course) for posting these videos. They were excellent and I found myself totally lost on the trip with you.

    Thanks Troy and Goose for letting me spend a few hours in your amazing world of adventure. Troy your intelligent and informative narrative, peppered with grace and incredible optimism in the face of bleak conditions, has made me really appreciate your spirit and the power of TH-cam. So glad I stumbled across your channel and I will check back often. Possibly family outings with your 2 children, on short day trips. They come with different challenges- as I remember when my sons were young!

    Troy, that was fascinating. I appreciate your resourceful, positive approach to outdoor adventure. Solo backcountry camping, paddling or backpacking doesn't look like a print ad for Coleman. Nature can throw us curves, even fastballs. Your comment about shutting down negative thinking and getting on with your objective was spot on. Thank you for a wonderful series. You are an inspiration. Best to you, Maddy and your family.

    I absolutely loved this 11 episode saga. I had a wonderful springer spaniel, and maddy really made these videos special to me. You inspired me to take several canoe trips, some short trips, as well as a good long 6 day trip in maine. I am constantly looking for a new river for next summer. Thanks for all the good advice,
    Mike

    I just finished watching the series over a few nights. We had two golden retrievers and had to put them down a year or so ago and it brought back memories of paddling with both of them. When the youngest was a small pup he jumped out of the canoe in the middle of a lake and I had to quickly grab him as we glided along. He had to sit between my wife's legs to warm him up as he was shivering. Such a great series of vids and I almost felt like i was there with you. Thanks!

    Troy, I just finished watching this awesome canoe trip video. Thanks to you and intrepid pooch Maddy for such an enjoyable canoe journey with you through Algonquin. Your cheerful demeanor through some ragged conditions was inspiring .. made me re-think complaining sometimes :). And your attention to key details of your pack, your gear, and why you're making the decisions and choices you made along the way was enlightening ... Maddy's 'can-do' doggy attitude also kept bringing big smiles to my face.:) I just subscribed. I've never been to Algonquin and I don't know if you ever lead canoe trips but I would definitely sign up for a 3 - 4 day canoe trip if you decided to lead a group. I love your knowledge and your attitude, so positive. Cheers !

    An Inspirational series of videos which I watched back to back. Your calm, can do & positive attitude held you in good stead throughout. I am emigrating to Canada this year and this is my kind of vacation, hopefully completing a 7 day trip in Labrador from Churchill Falls to GooseBay in August (Not Solo) I am sure however cold & tired Maddy felt during the trip she was a key element in the success of it and that when you left for work on Monday all the hardship faded away. Thank you very much for Sharing your journey.
