- We head into the wilderness to explore the beautiful waters of Lake Temagami. This is the entry point to northern Ontario. Away from the crowds we enter a world of old growth pines and clear waters. In Ojibwa Temagami means deeps waters by the shore. Yukon Bob takes you on a trip into the wilderness.
WoW the scenery never gets old. Another beautiful Video Bob, Thankyou! Always a pleasure to watch. 💙
You are putting quite the season together this year! I hope you keep it coming. I enjoy all your episodes.
Love to hear you commentate and educate and share your adventures and remind us to get out and live thanks!
The stop sign is likely for a snowmobile ice crossing. Great OFSC trials in that area. Great video, thanks.
That would explain things. Never thought of that. thanks
@@bobsudeyko4088 Our signage does look out of place in the non-winter months. Fabulous area for sledding, quadding and Sea Dooing.
As someone who spent time almost every summer for 25 years, there is a better, free boat launch just south of The Shores motel. It's almost in your drone shot at 3:35. Just a little way past that marina.
I've done the crown lands camping (not Finlayson) on a seadoo spark. It's impossible to do alone and stay dry. If you have 2 people, one can stay dry. One hops to shore when you get close and they catch the gear you toss.
How to tie a seadoo to Temagami's rocky shores and steep drop offs: Fill a sandbag anchor with rocks. Hang it off the back with as much rope as you can. drop it far from shore, so it's dangling. Approach shore slowly and into the expected winds until it seems to be dragging, then stop. Swim the bow line to shore, or throw it to a partner, secure to a tree or use a climbers cam anchor in a crack in the rock. Tie that shore line to the bow.
The shore rope will keep it secure, the bag of rocks will resist being dragged up the drop off keeping you from blowing into the rocks. Pull in the bow line to get the best tension on the stern one. If it's really windy, and it will be pushing the ski broadside, you can put both on the front.
In a pinch, punky, half rotten logs make good temporary fenders against the rocks. Look for soft wood, cedar, pine, fir. Balsam works too, but it will leave a sticky mess. Avoid birch and maple unless they are a bit rotten. Knock off any protuberances with a hatchet, tie up between 2 trees with your old log wedged in between the hull and rocks. They make a mess, your gelcoat will not be unscathed, but it beats that Canadian Shield granite.
If you want to beach it, you're looking for "sandy inlet" on the map. Northern Arm IIRC.
Fun Fact: The cottages are on the islands, not the mainland... all of them... it's an old fire prevention tactic so if your cottage catches fire, hopefully it is limited to the island.
If I still had mine seadoo, I'd offer to join you and show you what I know.
Thankyou Kevin for all the info. I do have an anchor system but I have not tested it. It’s similar to what you are describing. I need to test it in daylight before I attempt to it overnight. I was told that up on the north end of the lake there are dome sandy beaches. I want to go back this summer.
Another great video Bob! Thank you for sharing. I‘ve made plans visiting Lake Muskoka and Trent-Severn waterway near the end of August. I hope the weather behaves, I know it’s a bit of a crap shoot, maybe I’ll see you on the water.
You take your chances a bit when you are planning a trip more than 48 hours in advance. Mostly about the wind with a Seadoo.
Awesome adventure
Hello Bob, I love your videos. Great job with this one. I live in a small town between North Bay and Sudbury. Thanks in part to you with bring our seadoo switch (compact) to different places in Ontario. Most of our riding is on Lake Nipissing, we normally launch in Lavigne. it is a government dock (free) and the parking is also free. If you are interested at exploring Lake Nipissing we could help you with your adventure. I think you would enjoy the West Arm area of the Lake.
I really want to get out on Nipissing. Had plans earlier to go but the weather changed. I looked up Lavigne. It looks great. Thanks. Could explore the Wrst arm and the down towardsDokis and the French river. I suppose you need a camping permit for the park. Not sure outside the park if there is anything.
@@bobsudeyko4088 Hi Bob, there are a few islands with sandy shores and some you don"t need a permit. My son and I took our fishpro two years ago near the canoe past channel which is right across Sandy Ilsand It was a perfect place for seadoos.
@@user-cj4go2wp5i yes I’m sure that there are some spots that would be good. I did not see the north end of the lake and I am told that there are some beaches up there.
Looks good. Thanks for the video. Love the remoteness
The camp ground is nice lot 1 and 2 give you best privacy and quiet, Was there 25 years ago, nice to see no much has changed😊
Amazing is all I can say. Thanks now I need to add that to my Jetski to do list.
I think you will like it. I want to go back
Temagami is my home away from. glad you have enjoyed your time here. this is the first video that I have seen from a Jet ski Seadoo viewpoint with drone footage. Very professional videography which is great. Thank you. Keep up the great work.
Beautiful country. I like it a lot
@@bobsudeyko4088 just watch where you fly that drone. You were far too close to the waterdrome.
God`s country, beautiful footage Bob, love the commentary. Too bad its such a long drive, you need to spend a few days. I was up past there in Feb snowmobiling in New Liskeard and I noticed all the beautiful lakes
I don’t mind the drive but not for one day. You need at least two. Winds are not giving me a break this summer. I want to get out further just because I am tired of making the same videos over and over. I like to see new country.
@@bobsudeyko4088 yes, I agree. Although I've seen you do some of the same trips, I enjoy every one, always a new adventure
I'm so drawn to Canada.
The more I watch the more I yern.
All the best Bob & thanks.
The longer the video the better.
It relaxes me.....👍
Thanks Harry. I liked that area. I am having to go farther away and that’s more time and money. I love new areas though.
INSTA360 X3 Bob. I think you’d love one. It’ll record everything around your ride.
I have a Go Pro Max 360. I have used it in many of my videos. I try yo use it sparingly as it can be overused. It ha it’s place and can give a very cool perspective.
@@bobsudeyko4088 lol yes I noticed it mounted to the doo after I commented lol
Temagami is a great lake to enjoy on your sea doo. I spent a few days out there this summer as well. Those seagulls must chase everyone around. They chased us around for a while and I didn't even notice until I heard it squawking behind us. they're probably upset at people chasing them around... :(. A few things to note. Finlayson PP is a great place to stay. They have fine amenities, 2 beaches, and as you see a good boat launch and dock area. You can camp and park your sea doo out on the lake, but there might only be a couple of spots with a sandy beach to do so...and you can't always count on them being available. Anyone looking to enjoy the area please be aware that this is a large body of water so make sure to pick your days, bring a map, and tell someone where you're going. Boat safe all.
Good points. I was told after I got off the lake that way up on the northern end there are some sandy beaches. I did not get up that far to see them. In a day I only covered about half of the lake
Have you considered trying Mary Lake and the Muskoka River, up to Fairy Lake, and perhaps Vernon and Peninsula, again?
For camping I would consider anchoring my Seadoo in a few feet of water. If worried you could also tether it off to a tree or two with longer rope. The lake looked beautiful but I’m biased being from northern Ontario.
I have an anchor system but I have yet to test it. I need to do that and maybe make a video on how it works. It’s a matter of trusting it to hold overnight.
Beautiful place to explore. Very remote and peaceful. One thing I would be concerned about is that very remoteness, though. Is there some kind of rescue service on the lake? Much of the video you seem to be very isolated. Did you have a rescue plan? Thanks for sharing as always. Stay safe out there.
I carry an emergency air horn and a vhf radio. No cell service out there.
How was the fishing?
Didn’t do any. Pretty sure the fish are there though.
Great video Bob. I haven't ridden on Lake Temagami so it was great to see what it looks like. Did you cover most of the lake in the 120kms of riding?
No. I would say about half. I did not get up to the north end which is where someone told me afterwards that there are several sandy beaches. Need another trip there.
I hope you had permission to use those privately owned docks.
Hi Bob, it was only 4deg this morning in Bay of Islands NZ, so we gave away any idea of going on ski today, so we did the next best thing and sat down with a coffee and watched your video😅. Do you not have a transducer on your Garmin, If you have a transducer fitted, you can set the depth you want the alarm to go off at, when it gets suddenly shallow.
No there is no transducer On the Garmin. Seadoo has a depth indicator. I was just payed my to much attention to video stuff and not enough to the water I was in. Slow speed no big deal. Only 4 degrees. That’s cool. Your summers coming. Thanks for watching.
Fun fact the highest point in ontario is just off the lake
Ouch
How bad is the bottom of the ski scrstched
Nice video
No big deal. Moving very slowly.
That dive bombing seagull looked like something out of the Hitchcock movies "Birds".
That’s what I first though as well
what brand is that drone?
Two drones on this trip. Mavic Air 2S and the Skydio 2 plus.
The idea that people are allowed to have a cabin on every island and shoreline destroys the wilderness, and then these people think that they own the shore line because they have a dock on it really makes me mad, I have stopped and got onto some ones dock and they come out screaming, I tell them to go to hell because their dock is on public waters and attached to public shore line, they try to argue but I don't care, I simply tell them to move it off the public beach then.
You are right. They don’t own the water. I usually pick a dock where no one is present just to avoid confrontation.
@@bobsudeyko4088 Nice vids though, I will have to post my rides on the north Thompson river here in Kamloops, I ride upstream as far as I can get on fuel, usually about 125k upstream.
@@machinehead6892they may not own the water but they do own the dock.
