What better way to wrap my head around turning 50 years old than a week of solo canoe tripping in Algonquin Provincial Park!
Warm sunny days and crisp clear nights are on full display as we head back up into Big Trout, capturing the fall beauty of the park along this amazing storied backcountry route. This trip was the perfect maiden voyage for a new canoe too! Swift Keewaydin 15 in carbon (cherry thwart & yoke).
It has a dual height seat, detachable back support and a foot bar, effectively turning it into a pack-boat when desired. Fast and Light! I paddled strictly traditional on this trip but definitely will be trying out a double blade this year.
I utilized the 6D Mkii to do some amazing 4k timelapse and also captured a memorable midnight moonrise over glassy Macintosh Lake on the last evening.
Enjoy.
Let me know what you think and please share with like minded folks.
Doing it up Tumblehome style.

I just turned 45...the last few years I've been realizing that if I don't get up off my butt to do the things I enjoyed when I was younger....it will be too late. I waited 20 years to make it back to my annual BWCA trip. Nobody likes to do that kind of camping in my circle of friends/family....so I just started going solo, and I love it- no agenda but my own. It's a little more work, but I'm learning as I go.
What every canoeing channel on UA-cam should be.
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this work of art, or all your paddling videos for that matter. But they bring me back to the water and the wilderness when I can’t be there and my body and soul long for it. Thank you.
What a beautiful trip! Thank you! I'm 53 and at 40 I bought a 33 lb solo canoe ( OT Pack) and it changed my life. Even after decades of canoeing. Having a light solo canoe is a ticket to adventure and I have many memories in 13 years and hope to have decades more in her. I have caught more fish from her than I can remember and camping is a dream when I can lift and carry it so easily. I'm in the deep south and only can imagine these boundary water trips right now, but one day I will...and my canoe and I will add those trips to our long list of states and places we've fished and paddled.
a guy making a canoe video who can actually paddle. refreshing.
Just another great job thanks. 👍🇨🇦
Jason. I would pay US dollars to watch your stuff. Your the best, sorry Joe and Chris. Keep tripping and take us with you. It never gets old. You are a filming pro with great talent. You get the big screen and watched in full and re-watch to just chill and relax......Can't wait until the next one!
I really don't have the time to watch as many UA-cam videos as I would like to but I must say I always make time for yours. Well done Jason. Cheers, Scott.
Good grief, what a wonderfully beautiful production. Thank you!
78 now and still out in my canoe every chance I get. My canoe is 48 lbs . Cheers thanks
With the ongoing pandemic I have watched a lot of canoe videos this past year. Yours are the best, for your cinematography, your great paddling skills and laid back relaxing attitude and appreciation for our beautiful parks. You have not posted anything recently so I hope there will be much more as we head into fall and winter 21-22. Thanks
Masterfully edited and scored as always Jason. Wish I could be a fly on the wall of your home studio so I could learn. Incredible time lapses, loved it.
Ok......you deserve all the recognition you will get!!!.....beautifully done!
amazing video Jason, wonderful to watch and come along with you on the trip.The impression of glassy Big Trout reflecting the clouds was just mesmerizing...!
This was an amazing journey. Thanks for bringing me along.
It seems I've been waiting a long time for another of your videos. Absolutely beautiful. You are incredibly blessed. Thank you.
She's a real pretty canoe. You had some beautiful weather for your trip. Those are some really nice pictures and time lapses. Thanks for taking us along
That is amazing footage & editing Jay. Also some breathtaking stills, especially your night shots. I know I'll be returning to this this a few times before the ice melts. Huge thanks for sharing the fruits of your efforts, well worth the wait.
Pleasure to watch! thank you
Excellent Job! I was riveted the entire time. I've paddles many of those places in my younger day (I'm also 50) when I lived in Algonquin Park. I'm in BC now and I still do lots of paddling both in Canoes and Kayaks. I really enjoyed seeing your trip. Thanks for sharing that with us.
