    This video is about day 1 & 2 of our canoe camping trip through the South end of Algonquin Park! Come along as we paddle our way from the Smoke Lake access point to our campsite on Ragged Lake, and then onto the most epic campsite we’ve ever trekked to on Bonnechere Lake! Enjoy some peaceful paddling on picturesque lakes, along beautiful rivers and scenic portages through the backcountry in Algonquin's remote interior as we make our way deeper into the park.

    Hi everyone! We hope you enjoy the start to our new Algonquin trip series! Day two’s campsite stay was inspired by Park Ranger Jason Lorbetskie’s great blog post about it over on Ontario Parks’ website, and we’re also looking forward to sharing our favourite lake in the entire park coming up really soon in day three of the trip, which we’ve been enjoying for years but never captured on film until more recently in this series. Btw, for those who are looking for the 4K version of the video, it should be finished encoding on UA-cam’s end any moment now, though the 1080p version’s good to go now if you’d like to enjoy that. As always, thanks so much for watching, as well as all your comments, likes, shares, and if you haven’t already, subscribing to help support our channel - we really appreciate it, and we look forward to sharing day 3 of the trip soon! -Chris, Julia & Cedar :)
