It is a straight forward trip, but does require some challenging portaging, large open lake paddling, and multiple rapids of varying classes. There is a great variety of landscapes including fens and bogs, burns, both recent and old, sandy beaches and rocky shieldlands. A ...

    Doing the Bloodvein next summer with my son. Flying in from Bissett 14 days. Debating on where to start but thinking Larus at this point. Thanks for posting video. I’ll be watching all of it and gleaning as much information as I can out of it.

    • @jjjpppggg1
      @jjjpppggg1 8 місяців тому

      My wife and I would encourage you to get dropped off near the top of Murdock Lake. That way you get to see the pictographs and only have to do one portage. Also, the campsite just past the portage into Larus Lake is excellent. Thanks for watching and have a great rip. If you have any other questions please lets us know.

    • @ryanhines2857
      @ryanhines2857 8 місяців тому

      When you say top you mean closer to Larus correct? Murdock has two pictos pretty much at each end. I’m assuming you showed the set in the narrows in Murdock before you get into the rapids section you have to portage to Larus. Nice to know that a good campsite is that close still after the fires. Challenge is we’d probably want to get further west on Larus if the wind is good for it that day. Challenge then is I think the western part of Larus is way more burnt! We’ll have been in Quetico in 22, and Wabakimi in 23. If we spend 3 nights in WCPP we’ll have completed what Ontario was calling the Northwest Wilderness Quest from 2016 to 2019. They had a patch for it back then.

    • @jjjpppggg1
      @jjjpppggg1 8 місяців тому

      @ryanhines2857 Yup that is what I mean. As for the wind it will be somewhat in your face most of the trip, since you are paddling west. My wife and I have been to Quetico once and enjoyed it very much. It is a very well maintained area. If you very get a chance, come to northern Saskatchewan to paddle.

    • @jjjpppggg1
      @jjjpppggg1 8 місяців тому

      We had it custom made by North Water when we got the new canoe. It not only keeps water out, but on cool days it helps keep you warm. It does limit your forward line of sight when portaging. The Foster is on our list too. There are just so many choices. I think I will be moving to a different video editor. I am having too many errors with the one I am using.

      It is the Eureka No Bug Zone, 13 foot variety. We got ours at our local outdoor store. You can find them here too. eurekatentscanada.com/products/view/735?s=section_15 They take some practice setting up, but once you get it, it works well. You will get bugs in the inside, however they mostly go to the top of the tent, in the corners. If you really hate bugs, like my wife, it is worth the price and weight.

    Awesome Vid Gil. I've stared a long time at that satellite imagery for the Pink River, so I was happy to finally see what the rapids actually looked like. Loved the plant ID, I'm not sure if I've ever come across Northern eyebright, so that was cool to see. Your video makes me want to paddle the rest of that river. Did you catch much for fish? ...and where are you planning you next adventure?

      We did catch a few fish, but nothing that large. The moose hunting along the Pink River and lower Wathaman looks great. Depending on Covid and house repairs we will be doing some of the following: Hickson back to Missinipe, Bloodvein River (Ontario/Manitoba), Sturgeon-Weir (but from a more northerly start), and/or Churchill River (Missinipe to Pelican Narrows)
