I’ve watched countless UA-cam videos of overlanding but wow. What a perfect documentary and story telling. Absolutely loved every second of the video with my wife and pups
In 1978 I did almost that same trip with my new wife on a Kawasaki KZ 900 motorcycle with camping gear, we spent 10 days doing our adventure! On our 40 th anniversary we did it again with our Gulf Stream Vintage Cruzer travel trailer! Mam it’s amazing how much trees grow in 40 years! Very nice job Rick!
Well that was awesome. So glad the UA-cam algorithm sent me your channel. Your drone work, cinematography, and editing is outstanding. Happy to be a new subscriber!
Boy the oldman wasn't lying!! We sat around a campfire a couple of weeks ago and I heard all about this trip!! Once again what a beautiful trip and amazing footage to capture some amazing moments! I was telling phil I was so excited to see this and just hear you tell the story 😂. Absolutely amazing brother!
What an amazing video, GREAT flying (guessing a Mavic). I just got back from Batchawana and Alona Bay. Beautiful country. Thank you for sharing our Great Lake Superior and taking the time to film and edit.
@@staleybrad we agree lol. Sometimes it takes the algorithm forever to pick up sometimes vids just flop?!? Thanks for enjoying it though! Glad ya liked it.
Yet another beautifully done film by Overland Pioneers! Thoroughly enjoyed this one, already trying to figure out how to squeeze this into 2025 travel plans. Bravo!
My mother in law and I toured the southern part of Lake Superior this last summer from Munising to Duluth. Could not do the rest of the circle, but so glad you all did and put up a video to show all the beauty we could not see. What beautiful country and Lake Superior is Superior for sure. Thanks for another great video. Love them all.
Wow! What a great video. My wife and I would love to travel from our home state of KY and tour that location. We have been wanting to overland the northeast for a while now. Thanks for sharing.
WOW! Great video. We did out first ever overlanding trip in Sept of this yearand went up into the UP as well. Stayed at couple places you stated at. Came back wishing i had a drone. Just got the DJI mini 4 pro last week and after wathcing your excelent drone footage I know i made the right choice to get one. Gives a whole different perspective to the trip. I will be checking out more of your videos. Keep up the good work!!
New subscriber here. I absolutely loved the cinematography and story telling about this trip through my favorite home state and look forward to watching more of your content in the near future.
I've done my own little tour of the state side visiting the lighthouses. It was realy fun watching to see which one we both had been to. A great Video! Realy Nice music, sound and narration. I watch your vides several time as they are enjoyable. Thanks For Sharing Well Done!
Your channel just came up for me. What an amazing video. You did a wonderful job videoing and narrating it. I live in Michigan and spent a week in the UP this summer. It’s a great place to visit. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching more.
Somebody else who enjoys the meditative viewing of aerial footage, perhaps? Did I plan to watch a 1:18 long video this morning? No. Was I rewarded for doing so? Absolutely. Great job on the camera work and editing and telling a compelling story. Wish I would've had a conversation with you at KOAR - about travels, drones, whatever. Did you use D-Log for the drone footage?
Excellent video and drone photography! We did the Circle tour during the first week in September this year, going counterclockwise around the lake. Our weather was also perfect except one day, traveling from Wawa to Marathon. I'm guessing you were traveling about the same time since you ran into rain in Sault Ste. Marie. It was fun to see some of the places we visited again, and many that we didn't stop at. If you go on this trip again be sure to stop in Marathon to see Pebble Beach and Pukaskwa National Park.
"White Fish Point. A perfect beach at Mouth of the Huron and the rocky shores in the Keweenaw Peninsula." When did they move White Fish Point? I thought the Keweenaw Peninsula was, well, the peninsula and the Huron was 50 miles to the east. Beautiful photography. Your dogs don't know how lucky they are!
I really appreciate this video as I used to live in the upper and it’s nice to reminisce. I find the video a bit hard on my eyes with scenes changing every 2 to 3 seconds. Take care.
Great video, this is on my bucket list for sure! The weather was awesome! Going to do it on adventure motorcycles. What time of the year did you take this trip?
Only the non local tour guides say Isle Roy-Al. It’s just Isle Royal. Even though it’s spelled Royale. An itinerary would be helpful with scenic spots.
@@OverlandPioneers We have camped at many provincial parks all over Ontario , and charging for showers is unheard of , we and our fellow campers have never been charged , it just doesnt happen > was this at a provincial park or a private park ? , we have also camped at private parks and never been charged !
@ because if you camp in a provincial park and pay for a camp spot it’s part of the price to camp there. We were not camping in the parks so they had to charge us something to use the facilities. Next time you go to a provincial park ask how much it is to just shower and not camp
@@OverlandPioneers I understand now , we have never day tripped and have always camped for a few days at each park , so yes , i can see a charge for using facilities without staying for a period of time , ....hope you enjoyed the Canadian side of Superior !
Why do you insist on calling Great Lakes ships “barges”? Call them ships, boats, freighters, anything but barges. They are not sailing on the Ohio River.
@@OverlandPioneers Those Great Lakes freighters (known as Lakers) have dropped anchor and are waiting their turn to enter the Port of Thunder Bay , Ontario where they will take on grain shipped by rail from western Canada , potash , coal and other Canadian commodities for market such as Toronto Hamilton and various U S markets .
Your content is great, but dude. Hot dogs? You can eat so much better for the same money with nothing more than a frying pan. I plan to do that same tour next year in my teardrop
@@OverlandPioneers I thought maybe I should send you some of my 90 second one pan recipes... I saw you had brats at one point, at least a half step up from hotdogs :) I really want to do the circle tour next year, and maybe take a month to do it. I am a little concerned that I am pulling a teardrop with a Forester Wilderness. May need to put in the 2" lift kit first. Thanks for the vid!
@@WhislinGary a month may be too much time. Nothing 2 full weeks and you could literally see everything. Check out our 10 OR LESS series we do cook well sometimes lol. Your vehicle is more than capable for everything we did.

Most beautiful spots on earth.
@@caroletomlinson5480 agreed
Well done. Been in the UP many times (I'm originally from the LP). Makes me want to go back and someday do the circle tour.
Nice camera and editing work. You and your group just rewound in my mind several of my trips around the the grand lady. Thanks.

Beautiful and PACKED full of interesting content!!
Definitely!!
Amazing footage
Thank you kindly
The last time I crossed the big Mac bridge the toll was $1.50. That was in the early 80's. 😊
"White Fish Point. A perfect beach at Mouth of the Huron and the rocky shores in the Keweenaw Peninsula." When did they move White Fish Point? I thought the Keweenaw Peninsula was, well, the peninsula and the Huron was 50 miles to the east. Beautiful photography. Your dogs don't know how lucky they are!

Another great adventure, Amazing footage and narrating as always. What kinda drone do you use? It seems to have really good range and video quality.
@@number1yota Mavic 3 Pro. Thank you!!!
@@OverlandPioneers No wonder it takes such amazing footage, its a Hasselblad. First camera's on the Moon.
This video makes me want to go up there next summer. Have you ever shared your route?

Great video sir. Mind if I ask what time of year this was. It didn't look like the bugs were bad.

@@stevecarlson2346 can’t win them all lol. Grassyass!

@@jvanv4970 we used the Lake Superior Circle Tour App to plan our route.

@@jmo0311 depends on the wind. We have only done the summer there once and the black flies were the problem then.

@@mnmike6884 I went by how the Discovery channel pronounced it. Local Colloquialisms typically change proper phonetic pronunciations.
Are you gonna release your tracks for this?
@@Bmpaul02 we used the Lake Superior Circle Tour app to plan. Most the waypoints are in there that you can mark.
