    LMAO with your stache! Awesome trip, very nice winter setup. I didn’t know you were both Algonquin guides in your past, that explains your extensive skills and stamina.

      Hey Derek, I had no idea how bad it was until I looked at myself in the camera haha 😂 ...ya we've been guiding for many years, mostly canoeing but also rafting and ziplining. We still canoe guide in Algonquin a bit each summer. I have learned a lot from my guiding experiences! Hopefully I'll still be guiding when I'm old and gray 😄 Thanks for watching!

    We dont see that too often that kind of video where the hot tent is move everyday up to the next spot , such hard work to do everyday , even more so with the deep snow and the slushy lakes , my god ! It takes a lot of determination to wake up each day , pack everything , open the trail , and reset the camp each night 😵‍💫 , so the only thing I can say to you guys is " chapeau " like we say in french ,
    Thanks for the video ,

      Thank you for the very nice compliment! We've worked to simplify our systems and get more efficient with everything we do. We're still learning more and more about this style of camping but were definitely hooked on it! I'm very glad you appreciated this adventure. Merci mon ami!

    The best part is the hot drink, warm tent and blazing hot partner. Winter camping is for close friends only.

      It was a memorable one for Paige and me. I love how at different temperatures the sound of the snow can change so dramatically. When it's really cold it sounds like you're walking on styrofoam! Thanks for watching 🙂

    Can't believe you've found a woman who would do this 3 day trip let alone 2 weeks in Quetico. Paige is a real trooper.

      We definitely could have made the trip 1 day longer but we are still learning our limits with winter travel. I am lucky to have a partner who takes care of food on trip and cooking most camp meals, that's for sure. Thank you for watching 🙂

      Hey Christian, I love hearing that you enjoyed the video! Our Snowtrekker hot tent is pretty awesome. It always amazes me that we can fit everything we need to live comfortably outdoors in the winter on 2 toboggans. We're almost in Quetico now, I will be sharing about that experience when we get back. Thanks for watching!
