Hey thanks buddy I really appreciate that!!
Well, this is my Friday evening sorted. Order a Dominoes and sit down to a good film. I'll happily watch this adventure again mate. Great job!
What a LEGEND brother I appreciate that!!! Hope you enjoy it!!! I did re-Edit to try make it a bit more direct - hope you enjoy !!
@@EzeAdventurer You need to add some stats mate: Poops found? Farts made? Highest Snore magnitude? Fishes kissed? Socks "smell" distance? All interesting stuff :)
@@RobbC. hahaha you got a good point!!!
Sounds like a good setup 😂😂
I loved watching this! I did the same route around 40 years ago. It looks very much the same. We didn’t have the ability to film it back then, so I appreciated revisiting my memories! I’m thinking of getting a canoe and giving it a go in my 6th decade. 🤩
Aaaah that’s so heart warming thanks for sharing that!!! And so good to hear it all looks the same and is intact!
You definitely should give it a go!!! You can do it!!!
Thanks! I have been watching a series of canoeing tutorials made by the National Film Board of Canada called The Path of the Paddle. Absolutely incredible skills to be learned. You guys are good but the advanced skills and techniques would be useful for you for future trips. I considered myself advanced but I learned a lot! The guy demonstrating is a legend.
@@catherinemcgill3004 That's Bill Mason no?? abolsute LEGEND!! I've wacthed all that, amazing!!
I loved every second of this adventure!! Thank you for sharing 😊
Thanks for tuning in!!!!
Awesome video we travel to Algonquin from the UK , one thing I always bring is a compass makes finding those portages and camp sites on the big lakes a little easier
Thanks for sharing! I think I had a compass but didn't really need it much :-)
Thoroughly enjoyable! Thank you for filming the weather, sights, creatures and your journey. Keep safe and happy!
Thanks so much for the comment , I appreciate you !
Algonquin Park is coming to life with the weather becoming spring. Looking forward to see what you have planned. Be safe my friend across the big pond. What a great time you had a little bit of everything on the menu. Around Bend Oregon out !
Can't wait to go back to Canada!! Thanks and wishing you much adventure!!
Algonquin is the Canada’s Wonderland for canoe trippers.
Totally agree!! What a wonderful place to visit, thanks !
Your Feeling the Wairua bro… awesome vid
Thanks 😁
Storm reminds me of the time I was in the Peruvian Jungle on the Amazon River and the storm of the century hit‼️Whole teak trees were tumbling down the middle of the River & we were all in a little 3foot wide long canoe-at the end of the storm the Amazon had rose 21 Feet😳😱😱😱‼️
WOW now THAT's adventure!! Awesome!!!
The word is overused but I'm going to use it anyways...epic, simply epic. Algonquin is a jewel that we're very proud of, and your movie (and the episodes) have done it proud. You know Eze that you're welcome back anytime, eh?
Wow thanks Laurie, really put a smile on my face reading this comment, I appreciate it! Really is a jewel, I can’t wait to explore more of your breathtaking country! Look after yourself, eh? 😂
Im not sure if anyone mentioned this, but those werent memory knots in your braid. They were wind knots. An easy way to prevent those is to manually flip the bail closed on your reel (with your hand, not by reeling it shut). So cast, manually close your bale with your hand, then start reeling/working your bait. Your wind knots will reduce drastically.
Thanks buddy but I ALWAYS flip my bail closed before reeling in.. never automatically... I agree there were wind knots there, something was going on just couldn't really figure it out!
Thanks for the kind intention though, appreciate it!
Loving the content eze Canada looks amazing 🇨🇦 new subscriber keep it up mate 👍🏻 love the Scotland videos aswell 🏴
I spat my juice out when you smacked yourself with the tent pole 😂😂
Hey there mate! Welcome aboard, appreciate it!
Hahahaha that was a funny moment to catch on camera for sure! 😂
Thanks for sharing your journey, lovely production and I appreciate all the off camera work in all kinds of weather to set up the shots. Truly a boys own adventure.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much!! We had an absolute blast!!
Absolutely inspection is this video. Calm energy every time I waiting it. Thank you.... 😊
Thank you, I appreciate it!!
Great trip, great film! Thanks for taking us along Eze 👍
Thanks so much buddy I appreciate it!!
And the rain! Cracking film of a top adventure in supreme wilderness, you never disappoint 🙏 A head full of great memories you must have .. thanks for the effort & sharing 🤛👍
Thanks a lot mate, I appreciate you taking the time to comment - makes me happy to hear you enjoyed it! Super adventure indeed, can't wait for the next one! Have a good weekend ahead
You have the quietist comrades I have seen. No campfire jokes or laughing. That’s ok though. Sometimes nature does all the talking. Good videos!
Hahah noo we do plenty of jokes and there was a lot of laughing on this trip !! Just sometimes not caught on camera, it’s not rolling all the time 😀! Beautiful area !
But yeah we all love nature so much, sometimes we don’t want to break that magic you know?
Work as Camp counselor back in 85,86,87,best workout summer job ever
Yeaaaaah I bet bud!! That’s absolutely awesome!! Good times 🤙
Awesome video! You captured the beauty of Algonquin- big skies and lakes, rivers, portages, weather, fishing, camp life and the small details too. I enjoyed being able to dip in and out over the past few days and follow your trip.
Looking forward to hearing more on Canoehound Adventures tomorrow.
Hi Susan, thanks so much for watching the video - I know it was a long one, so massive thank you for watching to the end over several sessions! Looking forward to being on the show, hopefully we'll be able to chat!
Okay, I'm saving the next 3/4's I particularly liked the sped-up putting up of the tents. Thank you for all that effort...
Thanks a lot for watching the first 1/4, I appreciate it! Lots of action left , glad you enjoy it, can be watched in bits anytime 😃. I like the tent Timelapse too 💪
A nice chilled one mate. You’re a lucky guy to get that experience (although I’m sure you’ve earned it👊). I need to catch up on your vids but always appreciate watching them. Take care bud👍
Thanks v much brother appreciate it - hope you’re feeling better now? Happy adventuring 💪
Wonderful video, really enjoyed your interview on Canoehound Adventures! Thank you so much for making me feel extremely appreciative of living in this area, it is so easy to take it for granted!
Hey Richard!! So glad you liked the video and thanks for joining Dennis' interview, I really enjoyed it so much! It's an absolute pleasure, you guys have a gem of a country, I really hope to be there again ASAP. Keep on adventuring my friend!
Tremendously generous. Thank you so much
Any time! Thanks I appreciate it!
You really saved the day with your rain tarp eh. I truly admire that shot of the trail via your canoe overhead @5:04. It displayed the craggy traverse these kind of escapades require. Overall looks like a trip of a lifetime!
Thanks so much bud! Yeah was definitely useful having that extra tarp! We all had 1 "communal" extra item. Mine was the tarp. Others included a saw, a grill and another tarp.
Was an epic trip, thanks for coming for the ride!
Such a great video and wonderful adventure. Nature truly touches the soul Thank you for sharing. Blessings
Thank you very much!!! totally agree and blessings back to you!!
Looked like a nice trip but it looks like you should practice hanging tarps for your next trip 😮 stay dry my friend ⛈
Hahah yeah can always do with a bit more tarp practise!
Stunning video with stunning shots. Beautiful place 😊
Thank you so much!! Really is a stunning part of the world 🌎
Thank you so much for sharing with us, great adventure, great Video, i enjoy alot❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks SOO much appreciate it Maria, makes me v happy to know other people (like you) are enjoying this content!!
very much enjoyed your trip, thank you for sharing it with us
Thanks buddy, keep on adventuring brother!!
@@EzeAdventurer Always!
I really enjoyed watching this in the movie format. I did watch it in episode format as well. 😊
Alan - thank you so much for watching BOTH formats - you're a hero!!
Every time I go camping, I take along a 1" Settlers Wrench, (wood auger) and I find places to make 1" dowel-pin hangers in prime locations for places to secure hammock's or hang a back pack, etcetera from. Long ago I found it hard to locate a good place to hang something, (I've forgotten exactly what it was it's been so long, but anyway...) so the next time I went there, I took a hammer and some nails...yeah, I was a kid and I didn't know what a steel nail would do to a living tree. Lesson learned, anyways getting back to the Settlers Wrench. So 35 + odd years later until this very day, whenever I go camping, I take one with me and I still add my touch to the site(s) and I do it for my own convenience as well as those who follow along and happen across one of my previously occupied sites. Ariving at a rustic site only to find "the perfect hammock set-up" is always a bonus, as is someplace off of the ground on which to hang your pack, etcetera from, and a 1' thick 3'-4' dry peg securely hammered into place on a few of those trees sure makes things a whole lot better, especially if you've arrived late to the site as it is...
This video reminds me of my trip to "Crotch Lake", (up in the Queen's Land of Canada) where I went for a week of fishing a long while back. Just beautiful !!! Thank you for sharing, and I'll be sure to subscribe.
With all due respect,
Mr. T.C. Cross

Thanks so much for sharing that with us, and appreciate the subscribe!
Some beautiful campsites for sure and so much to explore!
Hope you're well in Michigan and hope to catch you on the next adventure!
Have a wonderful day ahead!
Absolutely love your videos man. High quality beautiful viewing. Keep these coming mate. You deserve so many more subscribers and I’m certain they will come. Thank you for sharing your amazing adventures
Glad you like them Jason!! I really appreciate it, definitely more to come, I appreciate your encouragement and support! See you on the next one mate!
I really like that. Great story telling via the camera.
Thanks Ray! This was an AMAZING trip that I'll never forget. Can't wait to go back to Canada, this time more WILD!
Perch in the net, pike on the line, Snag Bro lol 😂 nice vid Chris 👍
Love this whole trip/story/situation. The boys going to another country for a backcountry trip. Got a bit of everything for weather. Shame you guys couldn't have done a month and a few of the parks. We used to solely plan trips in here with no rain in forecast. Now I look forward to going with a storm(peak summer) because the whole experience before/during/after is epic In my opinion.
Hey Brent! Thanks brother appreciate it!
What a wonderful country you guys have... I'll be visiting again very soon!!!
Would LOVE to spend a month out there!
Def rain adds to variety and heightens the senses, welcome at times!
Loved this fantastic to watch thankyou so much ❤
Thanks so much!!
Thanks for posting this video. Inspiring. I spent eight days on the Alagash River as a boy. I think I might work my way up to that again this fall. Happy paddling.
My pleasure! Wow what's the Alagash River like?? Sounds awesome, hope you get back up there!
I’m looking forward to seeing you on Canoehound Adventures tomorrow night 👍🏻
Thanks Alan looking forward too! Hopefully we’ll get to chat!
Loved this Eze. The trip of a lifetime. Best wishes from Scotland.
Thanks so much brother!!! Hope to visit your beautiful country asap!

Your a a portaging beast!!
Haha thanks I appreciate the encouragement!
great video! keep it up
Thanks so much brother appreciate the support ✌️🫶
Very nice video, great production! This was totally worth the two and a half hours! I've never done a canoe trip, but there is one in my near future. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Jason thanks buddy I’m so stoked for your first canoe trip. I have no doubt you’re going to make priceless unforgettable memories
Very nice job! Enjoyed the many fishing captures. Well done. Its now time for another. Opeongo Merchant LaMuir Hogan Crow loop????! Lol Thanks for the enjoyment and personal escape.
Thank you so much, I can't wait to go back there. Currently in bed, day 4 of a flu... things will get better!
Keep on adventuring buddy!
@@EzeAdventurer Hope you're well, now!
I enjoyed this video very much. My first video of yours. Thank you.
Hey Michael! Welcome aboard, glad you found my channel!
nice video..👍
Thanks my friend!
Great adventure.😍
Thanks so much for coming along for the ride friend! WOW you make some INSANELY cool coffees!
Nice bro, beautiful places. Congrats from Brazil 🇧🇷
Thanks so much! Regards to your beautiful country which I hope to explore one day!!
@@EzeAdventurer come to Brazil my friend!

Really love the channel! Time for a gear video!!!!
Thanks so much, appreciate it! Hopefully will be able to do one sometime soon!
Awesome video, than you
Thank you too!!!
Those furry FEET made me laugh so hard all i could think of was "there's baby Sasquatch"! lmao recently i found your channel just binge watching this one was awesome.
Welcome aboard! haha was soo funny!!
@@EzeAdventurer yes it was the best lol
52:26 that will keep the bears away 😂 zzzz
HAHAHHAHA
Great trip I'd love to do that
Thanks Andy!! Highly recommended, it’ totally doable, easier to get all the kit, rent etc than the uk
Fabuleux
C'est tres gentil !
@@EzeAdventurer avec plaisirs
Fricking heck
Haha thanks!
As a kid I spent two summers in that park with the MNR..
Must have been incredible memories bud!
Hi Eze, great film! Keep up the great work, you are an inspiration.
With your films and film shorts are you able to post the music you use as well.
TL
Thanks so much buddy really appreciate that! You mean I should put credits etc for the music? Yeah perhaps you're right, I think sometimes the extra work for that puts me off given how much the editing, uploading and vid description and titles etc take, ooh and thumbnails aaaaaah gotta love the thumbnail bit lol
Marvelous! I hope you make a prep movie! How did you plan this adventure?
Thank you! I should do that one day!
Hey Eze. Great video! Just curious what size that canoe was, 14 or 15 footer. And what you thought of paddling it solo. I'm in the market for a solo canoe, and am torn between those sizes. Thanks!
Hi Dan! Thanks for watching.
I believe the canoe was an H20 Solo 15 foot. I absolutely loved it! Super efficient on the water, extremely lightweight for portages, decent stability, just a pleasure to paddle. I think there’s more to consider than just length, like material, width of canoe etc, all depending on what you want it for and what you value most. Eg weight, stability, durability, speed etc! Hope you find the perfect match for you and your adventures!
classsssssssss eze
THANKS so much appreciate that!!
Loved the video. I am considering mirroring your trip in July with my 17 year old son and I wonder if you were happy with the route and would suggest I do it exactly like you did or would you change anything looking back? I do think I may break it into 11-12 days possibly but any other advice? We are both experienced paddlers and the trip seems to have a variety of rivers and lakes.
Go for the route! I thoroughly enjoyed it! I think doing it in 11-12 days would allow more downtime to enjoy, although 10 days is sufficient time to do it in too. However, allowing a couple extra days for just soaking it all in, or for wind etc never hurts, and man it's such a beautiful place! I'd recommend you hang around big trout lake a few days, it's beautiful and so quiet!
Are you filming the experience? If you're not then consider a significant time saving in comparison to my trip!
PS. Depending on the bugs, Grassy bay could be buggy! We had none as it was September and there was so much firewood. To me this was an indication that the site rarely gets used in summer... which begs the question... why? Bugs perhaps?
@@EzeAdventurer thank you so much for responding and we just shoot a little video and some stills for our own memories so that won’t slow us down but we do enjoy some camp time or a rest day and I think breaking your day one into 2 days may be where I’ll add an extra day and then 2 days on Big Trout lake as you suggested and setup a base camp and just fish and paddle around that lake and explore the 2nd day. I have done lots of shorter trips 3-4 days and they are not too hard to plan a route but planning a 12 day route I have been finding really overwhelming. I have watched your channel for a long time and remembered you did a 10 day trip and when I saw you had the exact route in your notes I felt a bit of relief that I could just do what you did since I am guessing you spent a lot of time working on this route. My only requirements for this trip was a mix of rivers and lakes, try and stay away from the really busy routes and get far enough in the park for a more remote experience. Seems like this route has all that. Thanks again for your help and look forward to more of your videos. The ones in the Yukon were great too.
I think it's a great route, sounds all reasonable and a good plan, hope you have an amazing trip!!!@@cliffspicer6555
Love your films eze ,inspired me to do the nisutling river in yukon after watching your big salmon trip,how did you get from airport to algonquin Park please.?
Hey amazing!! When you doing the Nisutling river?? Have you done it already?
For this adventure, I rented a car from airport !
Going hopefully in August 24,never been to Canada at all,Scotland mostly ,daughter and her husband coming adwell,should be a great adventure ,I'm 68 not ready to give in yet .all the best for your future ventures rgds steve
Cant find the song thinking it has been deleted from youtube. Do you know the name of the song? 1:37:22
Beautiful track, it's from epidemic sound or musicbed one of the two, but don't remember the song name I'm afraid
Wow you only caught one fish worth eating???😂😂😂.
Hahah and we shared it too 😂
Hi Eze, I really love your videos! There is only one thing I do not like: Why do you always keep the fishes so long in the camera and out of water, wich you will let go again? They suffer. I do not like that. A short showing in the camera should be enough, shouldn't it? Everything else you show is absolutely stunning! Thank you! 🙂
Thanks for voicing that, I tend to agree! There's always room for improvement in better practises and I'm certainly improving. I'll continue to strive for best practises in fishing, camping, environmental care etc. Thanks for the comment!
@@EzeAdventurer This is so nice! Thank you! ♥️
Alginquin is hardly wild. You have to queue up for canoes at busy times of the year.
Yeah I agree.. We were lucky to go during a very quiet time and didn't see many people luckily but yeah I feel the same way.. doesn't feel wild anymore.
Well, this is my Friday evening sorted. Order a Dominoes and sit down to a good film. I'll happily watch this adventure again mate. Great job!
Hi eze finally got around to watching the film version of this trip. Enjoyed it as much as the episode version. I’d forgotten how good it was. Keep on adventuring and can’t wait for the next one. Maxxx
Hi Max!! what a star watching the content again, I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!! Thank you!!! i have a nice one coming soon, solo kayak camping on a Caribbean island whilst visiting my parents in Bahamas - and planning some bigger adventures for this year! So grateful to have awesome subs like you, your encouragement goes further than you think!
@@EzeAdventurer Ooo wow sounds gr8 eze. Looking forward to that what. Take care maxxx
