    It’s great to experience the moment where you realize the person you have been watching on adventures has become their own version of the characters they looked up to in the books that inspired them. You even see they are still are humble enough to not quite believe it themselves. Congratulations you will forever be a part of the adventure/explorer history.

    This is the extreme remote trip I know and love you and Ted for.. I know it’s hard with having a family, but I’d love to see a long distance, remote trip like this, with Ted, or even with one of the many other Canadian wilderness explorers like yourself (northern scavenger, or especially Justin Barbour)

    Either you are an incredible storyteller, or the story was incredible or both. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the landscape and learning about the people on the land. I recently read a book about how the boats of the Franklin expedition were found. I forget the man's name who helped Parks Canada find the boats, he was Inuit. Through that book, I learned a lot about the Inuit ways and my respect for them grew as I learned more and more about them.

    You and Ted put out some of best content on YT, great adventures, amazing stories. Anytime I see something new from y'all, it is must-see viewing. I guess my favorite part of the video was seeing you each pulling up those huge lake trout from Big Bear Lake. Maybe they weren't the lunkers that may be there, but they were pretty hefty and the work it took to land them was extreme. That had to have been a very satisfying meal in your tent out in the middle of that huge frozen lake that night. And seeing the Inuit people greet you at your final destination was very cool as well. Your commentary interspersed with the video of the trip was very well done as well. Great job!!

The number of human encounters you had on the trip surprised me a little but I guess subsistence living means you need to go out and get it done.
