    now that Ive watched the whole thing I gotta say this was one of the best canoe adventure videos Ive ever seen. The end nearly brought a tear to my eye. The summer cannot come fast enough to get out there and do these things again.

I must admit it was refreshing to see you express your shear exhaustion on day 10. I think we all felt it as well… I’m a 70yo man who has been on many adventures and have a few left in me, but I truly enjoy your documentary adventures. Be Safe!

    Dear Kevin,
    I really enjoy your videos. I truly wish I could experience what you do-immersing myself in nature and escaping the modern world. Unfortunately, I am a person with a disability, unable to use both of my legs, and I live in a developing country (Vietnam). This means I can only admire the majestic beauty of nature through the films you create.
    Please continue making more beautiful videos like these so that I can experience them vicariously through you. Thank you so much!

    Gotta say Kevin, you produce some of thee best canoeing videos. While oher youtubers are producing over theatricalized canoeing adventures full of music, you are keeping it raw and natural. There is nothing worse than watching these other adventures having to listen to continuous music in the background and sometimes in the foreground instead of the real noises of nature. Keep up the great work!

    As always great video! I once held a pike like that and it almost bit my face. Ive heard horror stories. Best way I've found is the finger under the jaw bone. Not touching the gills. Finger in and slide it towards the front. Your other hand supporting the fishes belly. Safe for you and safe for the pike.
    I really enjoy watching your videos and wish you all the best on your next adventure.

    • @kevinthewild1
      @kevinthewild1  Місяць тому

      Thanks for the advice! As you could see I had no idea how to properly hold it. I initially tried yo hold it by the gills but my finger went in too deep and got poked by what felt like its teeth. After that I decided to hold it up like I did, but I was very concerned that it would flick as I had no grip on it at all. That story about someone getting bit on the face sounds pretty horrifying.

    What a trip!! Glad I was there the week after you, the bugs died down a wee bit. Seeing you make it through to cliff lakes makes me think about my decision if I should have just went for it instead of circling back on the Berg 😅... At least I will know for next time when I go that way.
    Looks like the Esquif boat was pretty rugged, you could just drag it up the portages with a rope from cliff lake 😱. I just picked one up and looking forward to bringing it out next season for its maiden voyage

    • @kevinthewild1
      @kevinthewild1  Місяць тому

      The Esquif will definitely take a beating. But plan to be able to cover less distance on flat water per day as compared to your solo boat. It will feel quite a bit slower. Looking forward to seeing what you get up to next year!

I actually think the Granite Lake "campsite" you mentioned was actually where Luke and I created a temporary campfire for a shore lunch when we passed through there. Like you we took the same route around Brennan Falls. I really need to get around to making my video of that trip....

    First time watching one of your videos and I really enjoyed it. You struck a great balance with commentary in terms of not too much but just enough. The music additions were also really well done, they weren't done at times when it interrupted natural sounds and the music you picked was really well suited. I appreciated you going through your gear as well, I will be watching more of your videos.

    Thanks so much for taking me on your adventure. Unfortunately we dont have untouched nature like that anymore here in Germany. What a crazy portage at 2:04:28 - did you expect it to be THAT steep after reading the description, having to use a rope to pull up your canoe? 🤣

    I’ve often wondered why nobody has tried using a pair of small like bear paw snowshoes when portaging a bog or swampy area.

    Kevin, another great trip & another excellent video! The swollen bug bites looked nasty! Is it time to go see your local pharmacist for some remedies like simple antihistamine cream and / or tablets to reduce the annoyance, swelling, itching, and pain (to take on the trips)? 😀
