Most folks think that all of Oklhoma is a flat plain but Algonquin Park looks much like the area I live in. It's mixed hardwood and pine. Though the rivers and Creeks aren't what they were when I was growing up they're still pretty clear running and hemed by rocky hillsides. The land isn't much good except for the river bottoms and the soil, though sitting on limestone mostly is acidic from centuries of falling oak leaves. The summers are humid and brutal. But you should see it's redbud and dogwood, sarvice, and wild plum in spring, it's fall colors along the fence rows and hills, and the land with a snow blanket over it, it's little frozen waterfalls rainbows in the faint gleam of a winter sun and the fog and rim ice along the Illinois River and Barren Fork Creek. I think you'd like it. Yesterday we spotted 2 mature bald eagles sitting in a sycamore tree. I think they were contemplating the weather.
A bit poetic! Thank you for sharing.
Sounds idyllic!
Idyllic and poetic 😊
Better than PBS programming.
A lovely complement, thank you so much.
Peter, Kathy great video beautiful snow cover. I am wondering if you should strat including some of your modern day living style in some of your content. Like your travel time to get to the camp site your at for this video. You could do a video an ask your followers what they think. Gary and I spent a week with you two met some of your music make friends listening to you and your ukulele playing friends. Had loads of fun. Spent time with Kathy cooking some good food for your visiting friends. Even got to watch Kathy's magic editing our ugly mugs out of content 😂. Just a thought. Kathy keep Peter in line ok be safe you two!
And an interesting thought it is Larry … food for thought!
Great history. beautiful park! thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it
with all the historical info in your mind,,it is QUITE forgivable when you don't remember something!! You just keep hitting homeruns with your vids! thank you once again.
Thank you kindly Robert.
I could make a 100 calendar posters, from the scenes,excellent!
Thank you so much, I’ll pass that compliment on to Cathy who deserves the credit.
Dear Cathy and Peter,
I just turned my father onto your channel. He's about your age. Boy howdy is he impressed! Keep it up as long as you can please. History is SO important.
That’s flattering, thank you and thank your father for his interest.
Enjoyed Listening to a wee bit of Canadian history.
I 'll be turning in next Friday.
💛from 🇨🇦
Thank you so much for the support.
I loved how you presented this bit of history. The views were as wonderful as the story you told! Thanks so much !😄
Glad you enjoyed it, Karin.
Man, you’re good at walking in snowshoes! That was an excellent video. I love learning about the history from your channel!
And we love it that you love it … thanks for your continued support.
Beautiful country and wonderful trek. Fantastic history. Thank you for sharing with us. By the way, to you have a video on making the mittens you are wearing?
Not yet, but have plans to make a new pair. Thanks for watching.
Ah, Peter, I sincerely hope your present health and stamina continue on for many, many years to come. Thank you for the beautiful visit to the Algonquin Park, and the live history of the Native People who called it home.
Well sir I’m hoping for the same, lol. I trust all is well down East.
Always been interested in American history, do you have winter camping videos..great stuff.NEW ZEALAND fan.
If you go to our platlist and go to the category,Wildness Survival with Shelter and Fire.
Peter, when you are snowshoeing through a snow-laden forest, it is helpful to carry a neem-shtigwadan (journey stick). Use this 3 foot stick to clear your snowshoes of snow and to knock snow off branches in front of you for a dryer passage. The Algonquin Park Area has always had some of the best canoe grade bark in North America. Even in pre-contact times, it was traded northward to the Cree. During the 1800s, it was taken out to H.B.C. Fort Colonge and later to Fort William on the Ottawa. From here, the H.B.C. took it up the Dumoine River to Grand Lac Victoria, Waswanipi , Nemiscau , Wascaganish to as far north a Great Whale River on Hudson Bay. The Cree caribou hunters of the Richmond Gulf area where critically dependent on this southern bark trade to build their crooked canoes because they lived far north of any useable birch bark. Inspiring video. Keep up the good work!
Some interesting history, thanks for sharing. I rarely go anywhere without my flintlock musket which serves well as journey stick, but sadly not allowed in Algonquin . We certainly appreciate your insight and interest.
Peter, an old timer friend who used a H.B.C. Imperial #1cap gun until 1928, told me that unless actively hunting, he carried his gun over his shoulder, while holding the barrel facing downwards in one hand. The firing mechanism was wrapped in a square of blanket material to keep out the snow. He carried a journey stick in the other hand.for clearing his snowshoes of snow in the woods and slush on the waterways. This was done by swinging the stick like a pendulum in one hand catching the outside of the snowshoe frame on the upswing just behind the front crossbar. This tipped the snowshoe and threw the slush or snow off to one side. If the stick was carried in one's right hand, both snowshoe frames were struck on their right sides as they were lifted out of the snow. To knock out the lumps of snow or ice that built up under the foot, the heel was lifted and the end of the stick was swung down on the netting. When hauling a toboggan, the gun was carried in a spikinawgun ( gun coat) lashed to the top of the load where it could be quickly retrieved. This freed up one hand to better manage the meek--ko-bin (hauling tump for the toboggan). The gun was normally loaded with shot, but if a moose or caribou happened by, he would ram down a ball. He always kept the ball tight to the shot to prevent the barrel from bursting.
@@craigmacdonald152 “Young people should get to know old people, old people know stuff”. Fascinating story, I’ll be whittling me out one of those journey sticks before my next trek.
8K years yeah ok guy. The Adirondack natives aren't even 1k years old. We know both from history, written accounts, and genetic data that, this is this case. That the vast majority of native Americans we see today on the eastern sea board; come from after European introduction de-stabilized the region. Through removal from natives, and genetic absorption like the Quebecers are more European than not. Recommend 'the right of the accused'.
Carbon dating from archeological digs has the Algonquin people migrating up from more southern areas around 8500 years ago.
Thank you for sharing your live history adventures videos
Glad you like them!
Really icy here in southern Mtl area, Lower Canada! Wish I would be snowshowing in Algonquin park with you guys!
Maybe one day, we should make that happen. We’re heading back for 4 days in both February and March.
Another great video Peter, Manitoba guy here but I visited the Canadian canoe museum in Peterborough years ago which inspired me to make traditional snowshoes of my own. Thanks for making history fun!
I love that museum I think I’ve visited 3 times. History can indeed be fun, we just need a different approach! Thanks for watching.
Love your History lessens Peter! Do you think you could do one on Winter foot wear and how they kept their feet if not warm at least. from frostbite. Also didnt they use Dogs to help move their stuff? Thank you
I am in need a fresh pair soon, we’ll try a tape it…appreciate your interest.
One more interesting story. Thanks. Why doesen't Peter his gun, weren't any wolves around?
We were hiking in a Provincial Park and firearms are not allowed.
What a great life you live
We certainly have been, lucky. Thanks for watching.
Hi Peter. Another bullseye episode. I especially love your wee bit of history on the Native American people.
The indigenous culture does fascinate me. We appreciate your interest.
Beautiful scenery! I've never seen so much snow! Thanks for the history lesson!
Glad you enjoyed it
HELL of a good story and history lesson! Thank you Pedro, proud of you, as always. Actually, Algonquin park is the only place in Canada where I have actually camped and canoed and been pestered by bears. Keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoyed it! I’ve never had an issue in the park, but have friends that certainly have.
Just one note: the cree (and even the northern cree) made their canoes of birch bark, just not in the same manner. Instead of laying one big roll of bark out horizontally to form the canoe, they sewed the small strips of bark together vertically to form something that could cover the canoe. Spruce bark canoes which did not last very long and were very susceptible to cracking were only used in emergency situations when a birch bark one was not available and would be disposed of whenever they were done with them.
Thanks for sharing. I find the shape of the Cree crooked birch bark canoe fascinating. My research indicated that they frequently traded with the Algonquin for bark.
Thanks
Our pleasure.
Looks like you got a fair amount of snow up north, Peter. We have a heat wave down here in Pennsylvania. It was 54° here today. Our snow is all gone now. Put my snow shoes away today. Only use them for Christmas decorations now. It just doesn't snow down here like it used to. Thanks for another fine 'wee bit or history '.
That is both a pity and a bit scary. Gotta wonder what will become of this oasis we call home.
Great video! Interesting history to listen with a beautiful winter scenery! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it
Once again most enjoyable .Thank you for taking the time to share while on your winter adventure.
Glad you enjoyed.
It’s really hard to find words for the great effort you both go to bringing us these episodes, no small effort by either of you to bring us all the beauty and the history you shared today. Truly living history.
A wee bit of work as we’d be doing it even if the camera wasn’t present. We are truly living though!!!
Peter, I enjoyed the beautiful winter scenery and the history of the native people. Of special interest was your snowshoes. What do you use to bind your feet to your snowshoes?
If you go to our playlist under tutorials and look for How to Fasten Traditional Snowshoe Bindings.
Winter camping? I call it Penance! No, I am getting to a deep 'whuss' stage and like warmth and a home to go with it. I canNOT get over how hardy and able bodied the peoples centuries before us were. Spoiled? Yes we are and it's 'wee bits' such as yours that keep us 'in touch' with a past we should never forget. I thank you Peter and dear Catherine for another fine vid. Did you perhaps come across Fred on your trails? LOL! Nice to hear that the Indigenous are 'making a comeback'...we need their shared wisdom. "It is not in numbers, but in unity, that our great strength lies." (Thomas Paine). Health an' Happiness dear ones! :)
Penance is it now, lol. I wondered why I was so uncomfortable, lol. The way I see it Marie, a bad day under canvas beats a good day under a roof. One must look at historical trekking as, how do I go about making myself the least uncomfortable I can … if one is looking for comfort, your in the wrong activity. And, as always, thanks for watching.
I love winter, the colder, the better. This year -61. Great! Also, great history lesson. Kathy did a fantastic job on your scarf. Unfortunately we don't get enough snow to go snowshoeing anymore. Thanks for the video. Keep your powder dry
She did indeed, it serves me well. We are of this Sunday for another 5 days in Algonquin.
So pleased to hear you talking about the Native Americans, rather than in the colonies. Keep doing that, please. Algonquin is one of my favorite parks in eastern Canada. Got the opportunity ti visit it in 2003, and it is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
It is certainly a stunning area, glad the powers to be had the foresight to preserve it. Thanks for watching.
Great Video, Peter and Kathy. Absolutely love your content..
Awesome, thank you!
Love Algonquin Park....went on a 2 week canoeing trip in 1977.
It is indeed, certainly a gem in our Province.
Once the Europeans got into the mix , they sure muddied things up between the natives.
Muddied might not be quite strong enough, Jim.
@@TheWoodlandEscape Totally Agree, It turned how they dealt with each other on its head.
Great video! I was out snowshoeing that day! It was cold but beautiful! And so quite! Thank you for the history lesson.
Our pleasure, but sadly it looks like we’re about to lose it.
I was so looking forward to watching the little foxes from the den I found last year. Mom did a fair job of hiding it, but 150 yards or so was still to close to the paved road. We don't get a lot of traffic but some people go out of their way to run over a fox. Both kits were killed a few months apart trying to cross the road.
How sad is that. In our area it seems people love run over turtles… idiots I say.
I can only imagine what life must have been like back then but the silence and solitude must have been so normal to the indigenous people, something lots of people are looking for even in these days, beautiful scenery Peter and well captured Cathy thanks for the walk-a bout
And thank you for joining us on the trek!
This is great. BUT, it’s “Mon-tan-eyes”. I used to say the same. Keep up the great interpretation of history.
Thank for the correction and for your interest.
I always reflect fondly on my time spent in Algonquin Park. Great scarf! I have the same snowshoes. Great bit of history. 🐾🙏🏻✌🏻
Time spent trekking in a beautiful setting is not deducted from one’s lifespan!
@@TheWoodlandEscape INDEED
I have shoes just like those, handed down from my Grandfather to my Father and then to me. I agree that they are better than any recreation of the snowshoe since. Nice hiking with you, thanks for the video!
Glad you could join me on the trek and thanks for your interest.
Appreciate your efforts and dedication! Really like this episode. My goal is Alaska. I am curious about your cold weather boots and hope you can incorporate them into a future episode. Thanks again and keep your powder dry!
I actually going to make a new pair of winter Mocs soon … stay tuned, lol. Watch yer top knot!
@@TheWoodlandEscape looking forward to seeing it. Thanks
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY United States everyone
And to you Earl.
You are welcome my friend
❤😊😊
I hate me some snow - but with a hot cup of coco. I can really dig where you are. beautiful.
It is indeed a beautiful area, thanks for watching.
Peter & Cathy, that was an excellent episode. Great scenery, excellent encapsulation of the effects of European influence on the indigenous cultures. I particularly enjoyed your references to Champlain as I just finished reading the book "Champlain" by Joe C. W. Armstrong.
That is some significant snowfall on Algonquin. What date did you film?
Best regards to both of you.
That was a great read. We were up there the 15 to the 19th of January and heading back up for 4 days in February as well as March. We own the place mid week.
Cheers,
Peter
Another good one and an excellent history lesson.
Glad you enjoyed it
It's always good to have your history lessons winter is story time stay warm you 2
You got that right, stay by the fire and stay warm.
0:50 at first I though you were using an Astrolabe lol.
I wish I actually owned one … I’ve seen them in museums.
Great episode!
Beautiful woodlands
It is a magical place indeed!
Amen to that!
Where’s your musket?
Not allowed to carry guns in our Province Parks … felt bloody well naked, lol!
As fine a host as the venerated Roy Underhill
Well thank you, sir!
Absolutely AWESOME video. We live in South Carolina so we never see this kind of weather. Well done!!
Glad you enjoyed it! You too live in a beautiful part of the world, albeit the weathers a wee bit different.
Yes Sir!! Went to Algonquin Park Oct 2012. The last week the outfitter was open. Really liked your history lesson on the park. Would love to go back but being 81 years old i can't handle the portages. Keep the videos coming.@@TheWoodlandEscape
@@davebanner4060 Thanks Dave.
Thank you Kathy and Peter, have a nice weekend!!
You too and thanks for watching.
Fascinating episode 🦉
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Did frontiersmen wear underwear?
They did indeed, most often made from course linen.
What great wonderful winter Landscape Peter. I love this even though I've been living in a place without winter for decades now.
Thanks so much for remembering of the great nation of the Algonquin and her tragedy history.
It will be very interesting how they build his "tens"! Maybe you can make a video about this in the future.
Best wishes from the 🌞🏝.
Michael
Thanks Michael, we certainly appreciate your interest.
Beautiful scenery.
It really is!
Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure!
LOVE YOUR STORIES. KEN ROCKY MTS.
Thanks Ken.
Greetings from the land of the Nipissings.
Great show on Algonquin culture and Algonquin Park scenery.
I was born and raised in the little village of Hillside before Dwight on the way to Algonquin Park.
We hardly ever went to the park as our back yard was woods and bush and lakes and streams much like the Lookout Trail, Tea Lake, but not as wonderful as Centennial Trail, we as kids did all the Boy Scout things like camping and playing explorers, hunted and fished with our Dad in those woods.
I was fortunate to know many Folks who actually lived and worked in the park back in the day. Ralph Bice the famous Trapper, the Pidgeon family, of whom Jake still runs the Outfitter program at Brent, I think he is in his 80s now. I go back to the park once in a while as our small villages are now "THE GO TO PLACE" for people wanting to escape the busy city and most of our stomping grounds are cottages and homes. At almost 60 now, I still play Mountain Man explorer and silly bugger and love the outdoors (except bug season) and learning aboriginal techniques and primitive survival skills.
You can't beat the winter forest for the silence and solitude, until next time good health to you.
You certainly grew up in a beautiful part of Ontario. What a wonderful are to be a kid. Appreciate your interest.
I’ve been to Algonquin Park in the summer Peter but the winter there looks absolutely Beautiful! Thanks So Much to you and Kathy! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Our pleasure!
Another grand episode, beautiful landscape, rich history, very enjoyable. have you watched the movie The Black Robes.
Great movie. Probably the only movie set in the 1600’s worth watching. Speaking of watching, thank you.
Beautiful video, love the history.
Glad you enjoyed it
Beautiful country. Drudgery makes really cold and really hot weather unpleasant. One of the things I have found that language made enemies. The Algonquin usually got along with others of that language group. It covered a vast amount of territory from the atlantic coast to the Rockies and south to the Ohio river. It seems the Beaver Wars destroyed the population of many tribes, maybe as much as disease. The Algonquin speaking people would travel long distances. When Radisson and Groseilliers landed on what today is Madeline Island there were members of the Illini there.
You bring up a number of great points about linguistic groups. I also love the history of Raddison and Groseillers .
Some great cinematography here, reminds me of the film Jeremiah Johnson
In one of your videos you spoke of a film called Black Robe and that it was historically accurate, I saw it and loved it, do you know of any other films set in the time period that you recommend?
I’ll pass that fine compliment on to Cathy, thank you. I don’t know of any films set in the 1600 worth watching except Black Robe. Some choices in the 1700, like The Last of the Mohicans and The Revenant . Neither are historically correct, but entertaining.
Didn’t see anything to eat! Probably some rabbit’s & partridge? Seen some nice fish caught in the park, watching Shawn James, so wondering if they would of ice fished? Obviously must have survived on smoked meats harvested during the fall. Very interesting how many different Indian tribes there were located in different areas.
There is lots of rabbits but the grouse population seems down. The parks lakes are teaming with fish. I believe that there was something like 54 dialects spoken in North America when Europeans arrived.
Good video Peter
I am heading to Algonquin tomorrow morning just for the day, I love the Park and have been hooked ever since my first visit in 1995.
There is an Algonquin woman in Whitney I met.
Frank Kuiack the last guide of Algonquin Park knew the same woman, he’s a very interesting person and interesting read I highly recommended the book The Last Guide.
Sadly Frank has passed on
Sounds great, I’ll be looking that up … in need of some good winter reading material.
Peter, Over the years have traced my ancestors landing on the East Coast in the mid 1750’s. 2 out of 3 brothers came to what is now, the Adirondack park. It must have been quite the interesting journey. Fort William Henry is about 20 minute drive south, & fort Ticonderoga is probably 1 hr North. My 2 older brothers had wooden boxes with artifacts they use to find in the vegetable garden located next to the old farmhouse. There were a bunch of arrowhead’s, a piece of a clay pipe, a musket hammer. That stuff was all found in an area aprox. 50’ square, near a small apple orchard my ancestors had. There was also a couple plum trees, a large current bush, & several lyloc bushes. I even have some boxes full of old photos, and there are 2 tin photographs of Indian women dressed in Indian type clothing. The town historian tells me my family married into the Indian tribe located here. We have very hard winters here, & a short growing season, and I am told this area was used more as hunting grounds, and the Indians moved further South toward Glens Falls, perhaps Saratoga for the winter months.
Now that is some fascinating family history. Thank you so much for sharing. I hope to be heading down to the Adirondacks in April.
Well now you have me home sick. I grew up and live in the Bancroft area for the first 50 or so years of my life. Algonquin Park was my back yard for many years. Now I live in Regina Saskatchewan. Oh how I miss the trees.
You grew up in a beautiful part of the province, we live less than an hour from Bancroft.
Your a machine! I know how hard it is to move in deep snow in the woods, I can only imagine you at 20! I live down in the Mohawk Valley at the eastern gateway the Mohawks guarded. Great history and very sad.
Thanks 👍. However, I can hardly recall being 20, lol. I love the Mohawk … visited Fort Klock as well as Sir William Johnson Hall.
Nice hike and history lesson in the powder. People who've never handled birch bark don't understand how tough and flexible it is. You could do an episode on the uses of birch bark alone. Good fire starter too.
It certainly would have enough background historically and uses,that’s for sure.
Just 2 days ago I took a day trip to the Great swamp in Rhode Island USA. It was the location of the last stand of the Narragansett people during King Philip's war. It turned out to be a massacre with over a thousand natives being killed.
That war was a particularly violent one… short , but very bloody.
Beautiful country…something about the snow makes it so magical…..Very interesting…thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it. There is indeed something magical about a snow covered landscape.
nice ☃
Thanks 😊
Another great episode of the Woodland Escape. I'm sure that we would forgive you two. If you showed us a wee bit of your winter camp. 😉
Great idea! Perhaps future camping this winter.
I did a lot of snow shoeing along Lake Superior hunting rabbits as a kid. My friends and I had a great life my children will never experience living in a city.
Well sir, your kids a very lucky indeed and they are growing up in a very beautiful part of the world.
Lovely country. Big treat 2 videos in a week.
Thanks
FB
It certainly is a beautiful area … thanks for watching.
stunning!! amazing channel 87k subscribers - congrats!!
Thank you so much!!
Beautiful trek through the woods with your snow shoes. You manage very well through the trees. I am not as nimble in mine. Cheating and using poles. Great history lesson.
It is indeed a beautiful spot in our Province and a fascinating history. As to snowshoeing, we’ll, I’ve spent a lot of time on them since I was a wee one.
Nice snowshoes! Nice snow too. Ours is all gone now
Is that a god thing, Rick or a bad thing! Fortunately we’ve still got lots of
Well it feels like spring after being used to very cold temps. No cross country skiing here now, which I love to do. Were I with you that'd be my way to go! @@TheWoodlandEscape
Great, as always.
Thank you! Cheers!
Always Great Videos! Just catching up on them.
Glad you like them and we appreciate your continued support.
I'm from Western Pennsylvania, in Mercer county, One of my ancestors was burned at the stake by the Shawnee, ( Colonel William Crawford ) in 1782. The main tribe here is the Leni Lenape ( Delaware ). Strangly enough my Wife is half Cherokee, he family came from North Carolina.
William Crawford was an interesting man and a story I thought of one day telling. Turbulent times when your ancestor walled this earth. Appreciate your interest in our channel.
@@TheWoodlandEscape He was a friend of George Washington and Daniel Boone, and all three were with Braddock when he was killed. And Simon Girty was no stranger to their stories, where Girty was death could not be far behind.
I love that song at 12 minutes. It's in the movie Young Guns at the New Year's party. I'd like to know the name of it, this particular recording is quite good.
It may or may not have a title. Our music is provided by a couple of fellow musicians and many of the tunes are original. I’ll see if I can find out a name for you.
@@TheWoodlandEscape that'd be awesome. If the artist has a CD or record I'd buy it
Really. Times are a changing.
Indeed they are and not always for the better!
Spot on, and completely agree.@@TheWoodlandEscape
Going to give winter camping a try soon. Would be interesting to see your winter camp setup modern or not. Great episode!
Awesome! Thank you! If you go prepared, you’re in for a treat.
Beautiful country and great video! As usual!
Thank you very much! Heading back to Algonquin this Sunday for 5 days of bliss !
Went there in the 70's a wonderful summer.
No better place to send a summer … the memories will linger for a long time.
Great embroidered mits!
Thank you! 😊 … brain tanned moose hide,beaded by a Cree elder.
My very first deep winter camp was in the Adirondack mountains in N.Y. in the winter on 1976. They are so beautiful, and impress you with the absolute wilderness of the forest there. Once again enjoyed your presentation.
Thank you. I’ve spent a lot of time in the Adirondacks and have a trip planned for lateApril of this year.
I absolutely love your red coat. May I ask what that style is called?
If you go to our playlist, we did a tutorial on how to make one from a wool blanket. It is historically called a tradeshirt.
thank you so much, God bless :)@@TheWoodlandEscape
In researching my family history, I found my 9th great granduncle was Massasoit Ousamequin, Chief of the Wampanoag and part of the Algonquin nation who helped the pilgrims during their first years as settlers.
Oh wow, that is amazing, I’m envious of those that know their family history… thanks for sharing.
As always, I found this video very informing and quite interesting. Thank you to the both of you.
Glad you enjoyed it! We appreciate your interest and support.
Fabulous presentation
Thank you! Cheers!
That's a great history Peter!
Glad you enjoyed.
