This was my dream as a kid . Thank you for the video and congratulations
You are most welcome. Yes, this is a fabulous place to paddle!
very nice. I canoe up here in NW Florida in Perdido Bay between Florida and Alabama , I have an estuary available to me as well. No alligators but sharks, dolphins, and a variety of birds, stingrays, fish. Took me a bit to get used to the winds and paddling against and with the current. Everglades look great. Great video.
Nice video. I have done the trip from Everglades city to flamingo twice. Once solo. In a kayak though. I couldn’t imagine doing it in a canoe. The last time I was in a canoe was right before the first time I tried a kayak. Never went back.
This was incredibly helpful to me. I'm taking a 2.5HP small jon boat through there for two weeks. No substitute for experience. Thank you UA-cam.
Hello Roy, I'm glad you found my video helpful. Good luck on your trip!
You guys did a great job on this film. Helps a lot to someone planning on undertaking this trip. Very informative, excellent video skills and editing. Thanks.
Just came across this video. Very awesome 😎. Seems like a lot of work but rewarding. I will love to do that one day.
Thanks, it's an amazing place to paddle!
@@TheOneCanoe The Everglades one our great States’s wonders.
AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! iM 72 YEARS OLD AND WANT TO DO THIS BEFORE i GET TO OLD.
Just do it ...and i will try to follow you (in dreams only). It´s a beautiful part of the world ...grab the chance ....I can´t, as i am old (59) and have no money .....dont forget to make a video for all of us :)
Outstanding guys. I really enjoyed the video thank you for sharing and taking us on the adventure.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very slick.. very slick! I can tell you pay attention to detail & with that, you will be successful in whatever you do. Best wishes. -Matt
Wow, awesome video guys! I live in Miami and this is inspiring! Very well done... I could only imagine how long it took to organize, edit, voice over, and add music... again, very well done!! Thanks :)
great video! great pace, clear and interesting narration, hope you made more!
Hey Raymond, thanks for checking out our video. Yes, we do have another Everglades video from further south, departing from the town of Flamingo. Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/8qDBmu1c9tw/v-deo.html
Beautifully shot, wonderful storytelling. When I watch this video it makes me want to book a trip to Florida and see the Everglades by canoe. Well done.
Awesome film, guys! I did a portion of this in a four-day trip in the Ten Thousand Islands area, in kayaks back in 2007. This brings back memories. Wish I'd been able to capture some of our trip on video! Cheers!
Fantastic video. You've opened my eyes not only to another great destination, but I'm a big fan of how you put the video together. Something to aspire to.
Awesome Job on the video! Thanks for sharing this and taking the time to create it. I really enjoyed it!
Another great vid guys!
Very well done video and informative. You guys are naturals. We are going there in a week. Good to get a glimpse of what to look forward to!
By the way, do the gators leave you alone? Any precautions to take when we see them from our boats?
I just stumbled across this, and wow, what a great informative short video. Really well done. Thank you!.
Awesome trip guys! Moving to Miami, so looking for adventure!
Thanks. Yes, this is an amazing area to explore!
Terrific job on the video guys! Nicely done and very informative - this is exactly what I was looking for before my trip to the park. Might even follow the loop that you took :) Thanks!
Excellent video! Really well done! Inspirational too. Now, I can't decide if I want to tackle a section of the Appalachian Trail or head south with a canoe.
Great video. Looks like a sweet trip. The Everglades is definitely on my paddling bucket list.
TheOneCanoe....great video and thanks for the memories. I worked out of the Ivey House back in the early 80's. Ran back country programs for a private school in CT...also worked for a private outfit out of Homestead. Miss the chickees, birds, and Cape Sable! Nice work, brother!
Hey there Pancho308, Thanks for the compliment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I have not been down there myself in a few years, but hoping to venture back that way soon. Cheers.
Being from the east coast, my first question half way through the video was "Did anyone wake up wet because the tide had come in overnight?" Glad you touched on it.
Wow! Awesome Video!
Hey there InfinityFishingTeam, I'm glad you enjoyed the video, thanks. The camera on the tripod (just before the sunrise shot) in an Olympus e-410 DSLR that we use for all our still shots(it does not shoot video) For video, our main camera is an Canon HV20, tape based HD camcorder. We also use two GoPro Hero HD cameras for all the wide-angle point-of-view video stuff, espescially on or near the water since they are waterproof! -Wayne-
Nicely done. Thanks
No problem. Thanks for watching.
I'm gonna have to do this someday.
sir albertus asked ``By the way, do the gators leave you alone? Any precautions to take when we see them from our boats?```
We had no problem with the gators. They like to sit around and sun themselves. If youère quiet you can watch them for a while, but if your canoe gets too close they quickly scurry into the water and dissapear.
Nice video. I live in Homestead south Florida and never done this. I think its time to get me a canoe
Stunning ...just stunning ....great work and wonderful place to be ...:)
Hey B.R.Q. Thank You. Thanks for watching. We're working on an updated video that covers the southern section. Watch for it.
Fantastic video guys!
Yep! Great video. CWaV Summer Camp, Nige?
Hey there mrhorwitz.....Glad you enjoyed the video. We really enjoyed our time paddling the northern section of the Everglades National Park and hopefully we can return soon and complete the southern section starting in the town of Flamingo and working our way north. Yes, the video editing can be a lot of work, but for me half the fun of one of these trips is re-creating it in video and sharing our experiences with others.
Cheers -Wayne-
what a Awesome adventure
Thanks. Yes, it truly was an “Awesome Adventure”
Thanks for the video. It was very informative. The fish you caught at 6:06 was a ladyfish.
Thanks, Not being from the area we were not really familiar with all the fish species, so thank you for the identification, and Yes, I've had others point that out also.
awesome trip thanks for filming!
Hey Luan305, thanks for watching!
great video guys. i'm digging the emphasis on aesthetics and knowledge. - stony
Jus excellent. Great job!
very professional really enjoyed watching. .
Great video
Thanks. I’ve paddled the Everglades twice now, and hope to get back for a third trip.
Nicely done. I learned a lot from your video both the content and the production. Like 325
Thanks for watching Alabama Woodsman. I'm glad you'liked' it.
Wow, the 2nd leg of that trip sounds great! That's awesome you enjoy the editing and story telling.. it definitely shows :) How did you get those shots over the water of you guys leaving shore... did you place a GoPro on a tall tripod and stick it in the water ?
Nice video, informative too, thanks.
Nice video, I really enjoyed this one. What kind of camera do you use on the tripod?
awesome! love this.
Fantastic work on the video! Great experience I am sure... a bit different than paddling in Ontario I'd imagine? : )
Very nice video!!
Great video ! Don’t forget to tell viewers about NoSeeOmms and deer flys )))ouch (((
Yes, the no-se-ums can bad on the beach sites and even on the chickees when the sun goes down.
A) Everglades Park has little to do with "The Everglades", or the "river of grass"
B) There are plenty of portages if you want to push the envelope.
Nice video.
mrhorwitz, if you are refering to the shot at the end where we are heading back to port on our last day... yes we did place a camera in the water on a tripod, but it wasn't our GoPro, it was our canon HV20, but because it was low tide the water was very shallow, (about 1 foot deep) so the tripod did not have to be very high. The water was calm so we didn't really need the waterproof GoPro for that shot. -Wayne-
Where specifically did you guys camp on those beaches I need to know how to get there!!
There are many islands with designated campsites out in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Here's a list of some of them...Tiger Key, Picnic Key, Rabbit Key, Pavillion Key, Mormon Key, New Turkey Key, Turkey Key, Buzzard Key, and Hog Key. Just check a park map and you'll see.
@@TheOneCanoe awesome thank you!
Can you elaborate on your route. The Gulf Campsites. I recognized Indian Key and guess you may have stayed at Highlands Beach or Mormon Key. It would be helpful if you list your route and campsites.
Hello Marco Island Paddlers Association, here's the route we took....Depart Gulf Coast Visitor Center at Everglades City and paddle south along the Wilderness Waterway Trail. First night at Lopez River. Second night at Darwin's Place. Third night at Plate Creek Bay Chickee. We then paddled west out through Second Bay and First Bay into the Gulf of Mexico and headed north, stopping at Hog Key for lunch. Fourth night on Turkey Key. Fifth night on Rabbit Key. Day six return to Everglades city.
Nice
I’m confused on why they are on that little boat when there’s alligators in that water that could attack them?
Thousands of people explore the Everglades every year in "little' boats - that is canoes and kayaks, and certainly a lot of those people may encounter alligators. Alligators are generally weary of people and more often than not they scurry away or slip into the water as a boat approaches. They see 'us' as a threat. That being said, Florida has had several instances of fatal alligator encounters...I think the key here it to keep your distance, and be respectful of nature. Never feed, threaten or corner an alligator and give them lots of room. There are also snakes, scorpions, sharks, biting insects, even bears in the Everglades. Just be aware of your environment and your surroundings before heading off on any wilderness adventure.

You clearly aren't from Florida.
Just be aware of the Pythons :)
great place to escape huh????!! :)
Hey there TAPP Channel...Yes, great place to escape to. We've been there a couple of times now. Just wonderful. Can't wait to go back!
yeah I believe that...!! :) I've got a drone video from everglades on my channel... But I vas wondering if its safe to stay over night there (gators, snakes)... If yes then its gotta be a nice experience....
Yes it's safe to camp. Just stay in designated campsites, and don't leave food laying around.
Did you have any phone reception? Probably map app would be useless ??
There was no cell coverage. We use a satellite messenger system to keep in contact with family when paddling the Everglades. Some satellite units can be paired with a cell phone so you can have access to Google Maps.
TheOneCanoe
That’s good to know ! Thank you for your reply :)
Note 1+++ !
Great video. I've forwarded the link to a group of friends who will be joining me there for several days this winter. I will also embed your video under "Guest Reports" on my website, Yackman.com. Thanks for the professional work.
Thanks for the clarification TheOutdoorsman20... so much for asking the locals!! I'll be the first to admit that when it comes to salt-water fishing I don't know much!
Ladyfish...not mullet dude
Out of the entire video, that’s what you got from it?
@@FSU-xn8em he's not wrong......would you rather people stay uneducated?
@@chrissugg5331
Yes.
thats a ladyfish not mullet,
Hey Mark, My bad! Ya, we know that now, as several viewers have pointed out our mistake. In my defense, I was told by a local that those were mullets.
fire or a toilet? Ill take a toilet
Good video!
