Thank you. It was such an awesome trip! I should have done the full length version ages ago really, but kept putting it off. Be interesting to see if it performs differently.
Hey Paul, I re-watched this last night and it was lovely to be able to reminisce once again in fine detail. We really need to do this again but much wilder next time. Hope the home moving is going well, brother. See you soon.
Really appreciating your calming but inspiring videos, beautiful scenery, amazing wildlife, good camaraderie...all of it. You have a relaxed and calm voice and vibe too. Thank you 😊🛶🏕 p.s. you also say "that is proper naughty " when you eat a tasty treat, which is exactly what I say for same reason, so... we're def friends now!😁
Thanks for taking uS along. I have watches a lot of videos exploring Algonquin. I enjoyed your video and at the end you said you didn’t know the other 3 gentlemen’ I had a weird feeling about the other 2 were not very friendly in your video but that may just be the trip. Well I enjoyed your Adventures. Around Bend Oregon out !!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I can't recall the line you mentioned, but we all met via TH-cam and I had never met Matt before the trip and barely knew Eze or Fred before the trip. Sad they came across as unfriendly, but I can assure you we all got on very well, they are all top blokes, we had many laughs and we are still in regular contact with each other. I have been on a few adventures since with Fred and Eze and we are all hoping to do another similar adventure together. All the best, paul
Thanks for responding to my post. Glad they are still around doing Adventures. It’s had find people you enjoy spending that kind of time be in the backwater so I will be watching your paddles. Be safe and enjoy!!
@@WhenNaturePauls Awesome!!! We were watching this video and we thought you four were life long pals. So cool to make friends for the rest of your lives!!!
I can vouch for Eze he puts out some amazing videos, he has one on Algonquin, The Yukon and Patagonia, and others they are really worth checking out and he is a super guy, I haven’t met him but he can’t fake his good personality. It seems that most of those who join in remain behind the scenes of the main videographer. They all seem to love the wild and some are so good at getting great shots!
Ty, Great vid Paul, love it. It's awe inspiring isn't it. I watched EZE's awhile ago and thought it was the best representation of Algonquin so far. Took me awhile to find the group's vids. I like your meal plan...got some ideas! Do you know that you guys were recently brought up in a podcast here...think it was with the Budnicks, or Bairds. You should come back for a month.. hard to do I know but you could hit 3 or 4 Parks in somewhat close proximity (Canadian Close) and maybe slightly different topography. Algonquin (for nostalgia), Killarney, Temagami, French river, Mississagi all within 200 km of each other. I don't fish and thought Algonquin was fished out but recently learned otherwise.. just this week watched a vid where 2 guys caught 107 trout in 3 days in the fall. Better luck next time!
Would love to come back and severely hope I get to do so. Eze is out in Wabakimi right now, we often discuss all going back together at some point. Love the idea of doing month and exploring a few parks. Thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked it. All the best, Paul.
@@WhenNaturePauls P.S. I was just out a couple of weeks ago on a different loop into Big trout Lake (nobody on it then) I had to go pay a tribute to your campsite. My Fav vid and Fav part(that thunder storm). It was my slow day and paddled to just about every site :) Checking out a site we did about 25 years ago.
Thank you Jamie, I've got so much going on right now it has been a struggle to get out, but there will be more. As for my Tilley hat model, I had to check, but its a TWC7 apparently and I love it! ill be sure to add it to my kit list in the description. Take care, Paul.
Brilliant thanks buddy, ive just spent the weekend on ullswater. I know how you feel alwasy feel more achey when back from canoe trip that any other as you always are lugging more loads. Yes your luky you have the older model of the waxed tilly in the nice shade of brown, i have the newer green model@@WhenNaturePauls
Just come across your channel and loving it I recently bought a canoe and im keen to do an overnight camp and paddle. Is there anywhere you would suggest at this time of year. Im a fairly competent camper but want to take my dog to so something fairly simple to start with Cheers
Hi mate, thank you for stopping by! Just be weary of the weather especially the wind and If it were me I would want somewhere close to home with an easy escape route, should there be any complications. I would select a river no more technical than you are comfortably with or a loch/lake that you can easily return to your access point should you get into difficulties. You don't want to get pinned down by wind and waves miles away from an egress at the wrong end of the water. Wear appropriate clothing/Buoyancy aid, take spares and stay close to the bank, self rescuing is very difficult if you haven't practiced and usually better to just swim ashore. Let someone know exactly where you are going and better yet don't go on your own. Some of this might sound obvious, but I am being careful with what I say (anyone can read this). My get out clause - Don't just take my advise though do plenty of research. where do you live roughly?
Thanks for replying Paul, and yes it might sound like obvious advice but usually the best advice is obvious. I am cautious and wouldn't put myself in a situation I wasn't comfortable with. If you are ever back up in Scotland give me a shout for a possible collaboration. Again appreciate you taking time to reply . Oh and a sail is a must lol its on my Christmas list lol.
GOOD MEMORIES!! LOVED THIS TRIP SO MUCH MAN!!
Yeah man, can't wait for the next one!
What a beautiful film this was, well done to you and the others. Mesmerising photography and cinematic content. Five Star Film ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cheers mate. Yeah it was soo good, I'm desperate to go back, hoping to squeeze a few more into this life time 😃
Thank you for watching, Paul
Stunning and so worthy of the full length version
Thank you.
It was such an awesome trip!
I should have done the full length version ages ago really, but kept putting it off. Be interesting to see if it performs differently.
Better than National Geographic Channel.
The most authentic canoe adventure.l😁😁
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Such a beautiful place, I will definitely have to return!
Take care, Paul
Great adventure and thank you for sharing it with us. The scenery and silence must have been epic!
It certainly was! And for me it was mind-blowing just that there is so much of it. Thanks for watching, Paul.
This is a really nice video, Paul. Great content and production values!
Thank you, happy you think so.
Brilliant editing Paul, and great to revisit this trip of yours. atb
Cheers mate, should of done a full length version ages ago, but glad you like it

Cheers Fred. We definitely should! I'd be up for it once things have calmed down a little in my pack. Take care.
What an amazing one-of-a-kind experience. The Nothern gem! 💙

Was a great experience. One of a kind, but hopefully not a one off, would love to go back again. Thanks for watching, Paul

😂 it was proper naughty!

Will have to set some time aside to watch this. I very much enjoy your videos but it does make me a bit envious 😄
😂
Is quite a lengthy one, so I completely understand.
Awesome Adventure Bruv 💪🔥👌
Cheers mate 👊

Merci pour votre reportage...Magnifique vidéo et images a couper le souffle!!

I'm glad you enjoyed it and thank you for your encouraging words.
Take care, Paul
Just subbed and watched all your vids paul, really fun watching the scotland tours, please post some more. What model tilley do you wear?
Thank you Jamie,
I've got so much going on right now it has been a struggle to get out, but there will be more. As for my Tilley hat model, I had to check, but its a TWC7 apparently and I love it! ill be sure to add it to my kit list in the description. Take care, Paul.

1:40 800km would definitely be the biggest portage of the day!
😂 was hoping no one would notice my slip of the tongue. That would be some portage!
Just come across your channel and loving it
I recently bought a canoe and im keen to do an overnight camp and paddle.
Is there anywhere you would suggest at this time of year.
Im a fairly competent camper but want to take my dog to so something fairly simple to start with
