- Algonquin Park, in through Rock Lake Access - late summer August 26-28 2022
Camped on Lake Louisa on night 1, then on to Rence Lake, through the Galipo river, into Penn & Welcome Lake and back out of Rock Lake.
We did this popular loop - Welcome Lake Loop, in reverse, had a great time fishing and camping.

When one is a dog person, and they get older and don't have companions like that anymore...
Well, let's just say I find myself talking to Emma in "doggie talk" to the screen.
My high functioning Golden's name was Mitch. He has been gone 30 years, and it still makes my heart sing to remember.
You three make me feel better about the world.
I don't really have any higher praise.
Don't change a thing.
Reuben, you are too sweet, your comment made our day ❤️ ..we STILL talk to pups on the screen in doggy talk - makes Emma a little cross with us though. Goldens have a way of wedging themselves into our hearts. She's our first, but we took one in for a few months when a friend had to work out of province, and we fell in love. Getting out into the canoe on these trips makes us feel better about the world and more capable of joining back into it afterwards as well. Excited for the season to begin again. Thanks for the lovely comment.
I love these. The imagery alone is rejuvenating but the calm, quiet narration is great too. Nothing uninteresting about it! Thank you for allowing us this vicarious escape.
Thanks Jack! Glad to hear that you enjoyed it. A little relaxing escape is what we hope to bring
Love your Videos ! hope you keep making more ! my wife and i camp up in Northern Mn alot and Love it !
Great to see you three!!
Thanks! It's almost Canoe season again 😄
@@TwoPacksandaPup yes indeed! Well... yakking season for me but yes. Will we get to see you guys this season here on the tube? 😊🙏
You three Rock!
Seemed like such a fun adventure:)
♥️ Thank you so much!
Rook lake the best in Algonquin Park first time we went 1991 same camping from that day loved and good luck now we are have cottage in barrys bay but evry year we go to Rook lake for canoes ❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️
Another great adventure. Thanks for all the good footage. We like that you are spending some time educating fellow campers, ie. digging a hole for dishwater, putting out your fire completely, leaving some wood for the next person, checking for garbage. We all have to be respectful so everyone can enjoy the great outdoors. Thanks for your videos!
Thanks Mary - it's very important to us. We truly believe its all in seeing and understanding our impact, most people are good intentioned. Thanks for watching
It's heading toward -30C here. World is white and the water solid. So nice to sit by the fire. Hear water sounds, loons calling,green leaves. Glad you are getting videos out of your summer travels. Thank you.
We are inching towards spring.. soon we can all rejoice! Great to hear from you!
Every time I watch one of your videos my dog will sit beside me and watch because of Emma . he has a serious crush on her lol it’s his favourite part . Mine is watching Jamie fish !
Great videos guys
Haha ..Emma loves watching camp videos with us.. her favourite part is when someone goes for a swim 😂 go figure. Thanks Tyler
Looking forward to the next video.. the views are insane, everything seems very calm and peaceful.. especially the sound of water while you are paddling is, so satisfying..
So happy to hear you enjoyed the video, we love the calm and peace. Very happy to bring back a small piece to share
i get excited when i hear that intro song and see you guys driving north
That road trip to a canoe trip feeling 💕💕
Beautiful trip. Thanks for taking us along !
Thanks for joining us! It's great to hear that you enjoyed
Great video as always.
Thank you so much 😀
So happy to be able to watch another video from you guys!! Love that it's from the summer, I've seen enough of winter already!! Your dog is so adorable, it warms my heart watching her! Love from Kansas City Mo!!❤
Emma is too cute to keep to ourselves, we love that she gets to make other's smile. Thanks for coming along on the trip all the way from Kasas City Lisa! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your adventures. I've never been to this area of the park so it was wonderful to see. As always it was wonderful to see Emma's free spirit at play, we could all take a lesson from her.
Agree! She reminds us daily of what and aspirational free spirit is 💕
So happy to see y'all back and sharing your adventure...it's been a while....great job.....!
Thanks Jim!
Glad to see another video from you! This was gorgeous. And Emma is crazy adorable!
Thank you! Emma is too cute, agreed 🥰♥️
Just discovered your channel and I’m enjoying it very much. I took my first interior canoe trip 48 years ago. I was 18 and my two buddies convinced me to go in an 18 ft fibreglass canoe . We were very inexperienced, so much so that I threw a pillow loosely in the canoe . I can tell you that modern technology makes a ton of difference. Haven’t been able to go for about ten years now and it’s fun to see places I recognize through your videos. Thanks so much. ( keep swimming Ema)
Awe glad you found us 💕 I will just trust that things are much easier now 😂. I cannot imagine anymore weight. We too love seeing other videos of places we’ve been, glad to bring those memories back and onto your screen 💕
Thanks for all the work you do to get these on line, we really appreciate the effort that goes into it. Emma seems to be getting used to the fishing a bit more each trip. Cold rainy winter day here, nice to see memories of summer.
Thanks Moe! You're right, Emma is getting much much better around the fishing, much less excited. We found that letting her investigate the fish with a sniff once caught really helps.
Jen, I'm loving the dance moves. I am soooo the same :)
😂 always music playing in my head - I knew there had to be someone else
Fun video's! We watch alot of youtube videos on our smart TV and stumbled on your channel. Emma reminds us of our chocolate lab we had many years ago. For ever adolescent and loved the water! Please keep the video's coming 😊
Awe labs and goldens are two peas in a pod 💕 James grew up with a black lab, I grew up with a greater Swiss mountian dog. Such treasures.
@TwoPacksandaPup we've watched all your video's now, some twice lol
Really enjoy the camp cooking! For us that's something we look for on all youtube camping video's.
Another great video, and no mishaps 😊 Nice mayo haul
😎 mayo haul for the win. Hoping to keep the no mishap streak going 😄
Stumbled upon your channel,,,very nice! TY!
Thanks for watching! Hope you can join on the next ones 😉
Great trip, your doggie is such a good girl. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching, she is a sweetheart
Great video/trip. 2 normal people & a loveable dog, all low key, humble, present, in a beautiful landscape. I will do my first solo canoe trip (with my yellow lab) in Ontario, this summer. You've inspired me.
That’s awesome! Enjoy the journey including the planning and prep. Best to take it easy on a first trip and not plan to go very far. We have learned this from experience and trips gone wrong. Have fun!
Sweet dog 👍
She’s a sweetheart 💕❤️
You picked some beautiful camp spots and lakes.
It was a beautiful trip - thanks for joining us :)
This was an old one but it was still a good one!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks Kristin! Glad it was enjoyable ♥️
Great video thanks for sharing. Emma is so sweet!
She's sweet and spicy ..sometimes more sweet ..sometimes more spicy 😂 Thanks for watching Stephen
Thanks for sharing and championing responsible tripping! This trip is fabulous in Sept, last year my son and I stayed on your Louisa site and had the whole lake to ourselfs. The waterfalls off Penn were great fun!
It’s so special when you are out there with a loved one, and it’s quiet and calm, lake all to yourself. Nothing can beat it 💕
We believe in #leavenotrace as the ultimate respect, and hope to inspire as many others as possible.
Very nice vid. Our 1st trip was back in 1996.
Amazing! Glad you enjoyed the video
I did this in 3 days as well. One of the bros over at The Portage Outpost said he and his buddy did it in a day. Nutbars. I was ambitious and tried to get to Frank Lake in a day. Ended up at a lucky vacant Harry Lake site just as sundown hit. But I love this area. I go every year. Going to hit up Pen Lake for a few days. I'm too old to do the full welcome loop anymore
In a day!? Wow, I mean thats a challenge for sure! I hope you have a great time on Pen! Lots of places to explore in the area for a more mellow and relaxing trip. Thanks for sharing Steve
Another fun video! Scared me with that 2000km portage😄.... I see Jamie's new net works better when there's no holes in it... I give Emma a full 10 on those dive's😁
🤣 Thanks Jay, great to hear from you! I would tell Emma about her dives, but it'll go straight to her head.
That was a HUGE launch from Emma 😅
Ya, we checked her out after to make sure she was ok, she really has no fear 🫣
Excellent video!!! Great content! Good camera work and editing was nice! Very relaxing to watch and experience your trip with you. Would like to see more recipes and cooking close ups and sounds. No fish catch and cook, eh? You're so blessed to have the wilderness and lakes to explore and camp. I have to hike up and down mountains, backpacking, to be able to wild camp. A canoe trip would be wonderful!
Thanks so much! Great to hear from you - we just posted a new video with a catch n cook. Where are you from? Hiking up and down mountains is pretty cool too 😄
40 minutes on that Louisa portage... man's a tank.
Well ..there was a grin on James' face when I told him your comment 😂
Doesn’t seem to let me share the link msr replacement shock cords available
This was from 2022?
I’m going to try those bags. Thanks for sharing the link
Awesome Alan! Glad to hear. Just avoid putting anything too acidic in them like pickles.. still not sure if the failure I experienced was due to the acid being too strong for the plant cellulose, but have been perfect for everything else!
Yes, last footage from 2022 that I never got too until now.
That's one thing you don't see much of in Algonquin, a Deer!
Right?! was a nice surprise
Thinking of taking my little daughter here. is there cell reception around this lake?
I wouldn’t count on any cell reception in the backcountry of Algonquin. Have very rarely ever had any anywhere. I caught a specific spot on one site on this lake but it was not reliable.
Don't know what the original route was but the Welcome loop is a prized fishing destination but in the spring .Despite your crowds it's still a remote area .But one has to know where to go.ie no filled up crapper boxes and good fishing for specks. The two go together because fishermen are so full of sh*t . In any case Jen is a star with her Farrah Fawcet hair
😂 Thanks Alex, we will have to check it out in the spring, but do our best to avoid the fishermen that are full of sh*t. Might be tricky! Thanks for joining us, see you on the next one.
