Another epic trip and awesome episode. Keep up the 'Geology with Noah' sets as well, interesting to learn about Canadian geology, glaciation and all things nerdy.
Hi Guys. Really love all your videos. We ran the middle part of the Aguanish in 1998, about 70 miles worth in a week. We flew in to Lac Harvey coming in over those cliffs from the east. There was no burn then between Lac Harvey and Lac Padoue, though there was old burn below there. That last ferocious set above Padoue where you portaged over boulders and then lined the left we lined the whole thing down the right shore. Very intense lining as I recall. Below Padoue at the monster set we portaged the whole thing on the left - over a mile - still referred to by all of us as the portage from hell. You guys portage through some ugly stuff on the right and then very bravely ran and lined some of it. Dang. Also we took 2 days to do what you did in 1. What a river. Can't wait to see the rest . Cheers from the U.S.
Babe wake up Northern Scavenger posted and the Toronto boys are back. In all seriousness, a huge part of these videos is seeing some of your Toronto buddies join. These guys talk exactly like me and my friends, and to see them taking on the great outdoors is amazing.
I've been watching for a while now, and just had to comment. You guys are just blowing me away with your skills. The geological comments are definitely welcome.
"There was time in this country when only hardened people could navigate the landscape. A time when roads were rivers, cars were canoes and travel was grueling. A small breed of people in this country still go to find that challenge of the land, they push their limits, work relentlessly and absorb the hardship, all to look for the essence of the north. When these folks find themselves on the brink of stepping into that challenge, they go in head first and just fucking send it."
bold of me to say but I've never waited this anxiously on someone to post to youtube lmfao,,, one day I'm planning on a solo trip to grey owls cabin but for now watching and learning will do just fine. AMAZING JOB you guys and congrats on completing this journey, and THANK YOU for sharing!
The man made object was most likely a Kamutik/Qamutiq. The metal was likely what we call shoeing that goes on the bottom of the runners. Metal shoeing has been replaced by teflon for quite some time.
Epic trip and as always...professional video and scenic beauty. I appreciate the small quantity of ads. Unlike the two clowns from Ontario...the Baird boys.
A few comments :) 1) Awesome videos - I look forward to them every week 2) Why are you not using your spray tarps (I think that's the term) after having your gear almost ruined earlier in the trip? 3) How did you all meet? And what got you into adventuring/canoeing/long trips? Thanks for taking the time to bring us all along on this epic journey.
Country is so awesome! I don’t know what to comment on there’s so much, paddling those sets, broken paddle’s, fringing huge bear tracks and no shortage of bugs. Dinners are always interesting!
Man, your videos are like watching my friends and I doing section hikes, climbs, and other adventures. It pretty plain to say YOU GUYS ARE HARDCORE BACKCOUNTRY STUDS. You roll 50, and look back at those days and think, live it bros! Run with the wind! Follow those rivers. live your mountain dreams. It ruins you forever, it something that will pull you forever away from the civilized society....We still do a lot, we just wake up sore and have to losen up the ol body to get it going. Love the adventure, keep em coming!
Man the Cinematography on this channel is phenomenal! Just an epic voyage, I'm not a canoeist, but I am an outdoor enthusiast. Thanks for posting these videos.
I love watching you guys it's such a a pleasure watching you see beautiful rivers and mountain, you working very hard on the water, and you guys very good team, thank you for sharing the video and good luck.
I love this series! I think it's one of your best adventures yet! The editing is excellent, the story is exciting and fun, and the drone shots are epic!
Yous are just rock’s this. Amazing paddling, lining, portaging,scenery and also fantastic looking meals at the end of an exhausting day. Can’t wait for more.😘
About the wildfires, the burnt area along that portion of the Aguanish is the result of ~44 000 ha fire dating from 2013. That year was a pretty big one for wildfires all over Québec. Côte-Nord usually receives more precipitations than western and central Québec, although fires (and some notably huge ones) are still frequent in this area.
Gents! Another amazing episode! That portage could of been a show stopper. I really enjoyed the footage at 31 min, its great to read the river with you, and see the lines you're shooting for. You lads got the skills!!
Love the release of these videos! I always look forward to it, but have to decide if I watch it that night or early the next morning. Usually night of wins out!
Thank you for all the work you guys put into the footage and editing. It would be cool to see a breakdown of your editing process, or maybe even a budget breakdown.
Congratulations on your strength and determination to get this far and with such good humor! Since your trip is sponsored by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, I'm wondering if that sponsorship requires a report from you at the end of your trip. If so, what kind of information are you gathering? I like Noah's obvious enthusiasm for geology!
As usual, I loved the video. Had to pause half way through and take my dog for a walk. I was feeling guilty sitting and watching you all bust your hump. Keep them coming guys.
I can only suspect it would take longer than in a more southern border boreal type forest, to regrow after a fire. Many of the clips seen show decent water to pole in, lets not forget the pole. for when you have a broken paddle a pole can be had right of the stream bank or so. Easy to crafter from standing dead or even green. Speaking of cutting trees you could cut a small green tree in one of the burns and count the growth rings for an idea of how old the burn is. Broken paddle number two, not to harp on it but a pole is so handy in these class one and two rapids and even into some class threes. It sure takes time to learn the skill but well worth it. You guys should do a spin off of Under the Yoke podcast. Just a though record around the fire in the evening and offer up a series on this. any topic including glacial till, hey, maybe that could be the title, Glacial Till podcast.
Oh man, that last portage was hellish! You guys must be half goat for sure, great balance! I could feel the itch from those bug bites, was there a few times myself, ears as big as Dumbo. haha! Thanks for sharing, looking forward to the next episode. :) :)
Best scenery yet, rivaling that from the Labrador trip (at least from what we saw in your films). The drone shots around 18:30 were amazing and really gives us the perspective of how small you guys were next to the cliffs. Just epic.

What a river.
Can't wait to see the rest . Cheers from the U.S.
Quite possibly a bob sled or dog sled. Great episode as usual.👍👍
Wow!
Babe wake up Northern Scavenger posted and the Toronto boys are back.

Lol cheers Zak!
Quite the scenery there. Landscape is different than I thought you had over there. Midwest US here. Great vid
The views are breathtaking, great video guys !
It is so good to see young people still enjoying life, and not the politics of life.
The Belly button part reminds me of the movie Stand by me and the leech scene. 😄
Outstanding!
Great adventure!... thanks for taking us along on places we'll never see in person.
Keep up the great work 👍
you guys rocked that blind set, great paddling!
what an amazing trip! except for black flies! im a bit jealous
Seem like a good bunch of lads.
I've been watching for a while now, and just had to comment. You guys are just blowing me away with your skills. The geological comments are definitely welcome.
Thanks Lae :)

Amazing edit! Perfectly captures the beauty and the struggle out there!
This is a great Wednesday night tradittion now. Thanks!
Bought you all a beer and then realized I have no way of getting it to you guys. So I guess I'll have to drink it too. Love this series. Cheers!
Lmao appreciate the gesture 🙏

Interesting...Cheers!
Ok
The landscape and scenery on this episode are just stunning. Your incredible filming shows it off so vividly. Those bear prints looked huge! 🐻🐾😳
American here, never realized how unexplored Canada really is. Love the series!
Epic trip and as always...professional video and scenic beauty. I appreciate the small quantity of ads. Unlike the two clowns from Ontario...the Baird boys.
Great vid! Surprised you don't have lots more subscribers! Like the geology lessons.
Inspiring stuff! (Didn't see the belly-button end frame coming! :) )
A few comments :)
1) Awesome videos - I look forward to them every week
2) Why are you not using your spray tarps (I think that's the term) after having your gear almost ruined earlier in the trip?
3) How did you all meet? And what got you into adventuring/canoeing/long trips?
Thanks for taking the time to bring us all along on this epic journey.
Thanks all. I needed that. Take care
Brilliant boys, nice paddling in laden boats, never as easy as you think!
Theres is no place as beautiful as the Canadian north
Country is so awesome! I don’t know what to comment on there’s so much, paddling those sets, broken paddle’s, fringing huge bear tracks and no shortage of bugs. Dinners are always interesting!
Brutal portage, Matt eaten alive
And a chewed up belly button 😱

By far my favorite episode so far. There is just something about the geology that rocks me as well.
Haha just wait until you get a little further. You might have a new fav 😉
What an amazing team, great drone work, great documentary , supper adventure, THANKS

Well said @adventures with Josie totally agree, on my list of top 5 TH-camrs thanks for the exceptional contant @Northern Scavengers!!!
Cheers! Thanks Josie
You guys are tough. We love you. John and Leslie!
Eric the master caster on the most beautiful stretch. Awesome!!
Yous are just rock’s this. Amazing paddling, lining, portaging,scenery and also fantastic looking meals at the end of an exhausting day. Can’t wait for more.😘
Can't wait to get out on my kayak camping, thanks for all the TIPS. I'll be careful. GREAT SHOW KIDS !! Lets go BRANDON
Hello from NEVADA
Wow, flying a drone off a canoe, very cool! great video.
Kept the nerves rolling haha
So glad I found your channel. I'm always looking forward to your next video and I've never been disappointed. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
You guys make such great content! This is National Geographic quality content! Thank you!
Cheers!

The belly button was the perfect ending. No one could script an ending that good. Hilarious and unexpected. Award winning. 👏
The bugs really stepped it up for that ending 🦟🪰🦟🪰🦟🪰
Gents! Another amazing episode! That portage could of been a show stopper.
I really enjoyed the footage at 31 min, its great to read the river with you, and see the lines you're shooting for. You lads got the skills!!
Epic journey!!! The strength and determination of youth is amazing. Can’t wait for the next episode.
Excellent video guys! The scenery is breathtaking. Loved the Blind Melon!!
3 weeks into the wilderness and every paddle stroke matters so much!
Keeps you on your toes
The campfire jam scene was the best. What a vibe! 23:54
Wish we could have shared more videos from this night. It was by far our favourite night of the trip.
Love the release of these videos! I always look forward to it, but have to decide if I watch it that night or early the next morning. Usually night of wins out!
You guys put a serious feather in your hat in this video, best of luck men.
This is your best edit of the series IMO. Really enjoyable!
Lordy the scenery… rock on boys…
Thank you for all the work you guys put into the footage and editing.
It would be cool to see a breakdown of your editing process, or maybe even a budget breakdown.
Epic adventure and great story telling! Really enjoying these longer trips, thanks for carrying the extra gear and taking the time to edit these!
Loving this journey with you all. Take good care of yourselves and never leave it to chance. 🎏🌞

Man a beautiful section of river. Bull dog duct tape works good on a split paddle. I’ve used it, not on white water though. Be safe.

There are a number of deliverables that include reports, video and photo content and this video series! Thanks for following along
Another great one! It is amazing how much the landscape changes throughout this - and the views! It's the little things, like sitting in a chair
I look forward to watching these each week. Love the show. Excited to see what’s next
Great episode. Gorgeous country. I’m really enjoying this.
Another brilliant episode, thank you guys 👍😊
Typical, FANTASTIC cinematography!!! Noah, your nose is CROOKED!!!
What a great series! Thanks buds!
Wow, what a great episode!
Looking forward to this one boys 🤙
That was some epic work!! Well done lads!!
You guys are amazing! Love it!
As usual, I loved the video. Had to pause half way through and take my dog for a walk. I was feeling guilty sitting and watching you all bust your hump. Keep them coming guys.
Was it a good walk though?? Cheers!
@@NorthernScavenger Good walk had by us both.
Wow 😳 what fun! 🙏
Wow. Amazing tough stert!

Great suggestion!
That portage with all the hidden holes. Oh my gawd! You guys are tough as nails!
Stunning views
Awesome video you guys certainly are game for anything..stay safe,thanks for sharing and looking forward to the next video!..🙂
😁🤔😖😳😱😬🤯 so in other words awesome!!! Thanks for the video 👊
Oh man, that last portage was hellish! You guys must be half goat for sure, great balance! I could feel the itch from those bug bites, was there a few times myself, ears as big as Dumbo. haha! Thanks for sharing, looking forward to the next episode. :) :)
Always enjoy the Northern Scavenger group. Great team work and always a great production. Well done and thanks for sharing this great trip.
Jezz portaging through a burn looks like hell! Kudos to you guys.
Great series, the drone shots are epic, with beautiful views. You guys are great to watch. Thank you for all your hard work filming & editing.
Thanks for watching 👀
Following this epic trip. Wonderful scenery guys. Paddling so hard you snap the paddle in half. So much water!
Those mountains are insane! Overwhelming beautiful in person, I bet
I'm going with Sled. Great stuff guys!
Best scenery yet, rivaling that from the Labrador trip (at least from what we saw in your films). The drone shots around 18:30 were amazing and really gives us the perspective of how small you guys were next to the cliffs. Just epic.
Lovin the series. Keep them coming.
Absolutely beautiful. The filming, editing, and narrative make this one of the best productions yet. Thank you for sharing with us.
Cheers thanks Michael
Beautiful drone shots around 18:30.
Wow! Amazing shots and beautiful scenery! What an epic trip :)
Incredible area of Canada
Really enjoying the series!! 🙌🏽
This series is awesome! You guys do an amazing job keep it coming!
Way to go, boys! Great job!
Beautiful country
Just awesome. Could have done without that last shot though. lol. TY and blessings.
Great work on this entire series. It’s riveting with a good storyline, great characters, optimism, it’s just the best.
I'm very much impressed.
Always great stuff! You guys did fantastic with your drone shots in this episode.
Another great episode! What an epic scenery!
