The quality and cinematography of this video is of Hollywood calibre, however the content, and honesty of this video way beyond anything in Hollywood.
Thanks for the high praise Kirk.
Hollywood is lost; probably for good. It's a shame because I've always been a movie lover. Now I find myself on CZcams watching films like this.
I've spent a few summers paddling from Pickle lake to Hudson's Bay and have traveled on the Ashweig, Pipestone, and Morris rivers too. The best summers of my life, this film brings back such good memories. Thank you for sharing.
This is what Canada is about fam, nothing we can't do when we work together, beautiful homage to the "True North strong and free"- keep it going fellas, this is an inspiration for every kid growing up!!! Lots of love guys...
This one of the best self made documentaries I have ever watched. That was some wicked bush whacking.. What a great accomplishment for you all. This really inspires me...
Thanks Chris!
By far the best filmed and executed canoe adventure I have every watched. Well done sir, well done.
Well done guys!! No hightech drysuites or spraycovers...... yet you choose to shoot right down the barrel of the rapids.... wonderful!! Every syllable you speak is full of respect for the land and its people!! Please dont stop with your fine work and life!!
I always find myself coming back to this year after year...... a truly amazing documentary about a truly amazing journey. Really makes me sad that my canoe tripping days are over
Hard work every day, no breaks. Good times.
Excellent Film, Thanks for posting it. "The Journey is the Destination"!
17 minutes in/ mosquito scene/i know that feeling,respect and admiration chaps for your determination
Loved so many things about this video. Starting with the best expedition canoe ever made, the Old Town Tripper canoe. Damn shame they stopped making that boat. Love mine. It was also great to see the traditional canoe gear. So many young people posting canoe trip videos are so, so proud to be essentially doing a hiking trip with a canoe. Missing the point entirely about a canoe expedition, which to me is, you eat like a king with real food, you cook with a actual grill, sleep in a nice sized tent not a coffin, and most importantly you work as a team, you become your own community. And those things hikers consider luxurious, because they never see the extended remote of a canoeist, are what make us feel safe as canoeists. Real food, tobacco, a good seat, and the sacred camp boots for dry feet finally at the end of the day. As an Old Maine Guide of 26 years, I really enjoyed seeing a younger group on a good track. The only advice I will offer is...slow those boats down in the rapids, remember you’re driving a vehicle with no brakes. Once you descend into that rapids, just steer and slow. All the best.

This is what the entire internet technology should be about.....GREAT Video....Great teaching, learning tools of life.....great.....just awesome.......
I'm at a loss for words... Astounding!!!.... found a word
No bug shirts or head nets?? Total gamechanger my friends.
I'm guessing you had them and it just wasn't shown on film. No one is crazy enough to go that far up north without a head net at the very least.
What an epic journey boys!
Yeah three of us had them. I somehow misplaced mine before we left so was without one for the whole trip. Only lost my mind once when a black fly lodged itself in my ear.
@@DavidHartmanFilms 😂. Ya those buggers are relentless! Just subbed. Thanks for bringing us along on that journey 👍👍
Guys as a canoeist myself, I have to say this is the most wonderful video I have seen. Truly amazing
Came back to watch this again after 4 or 5 years now. I'm looking for this kind of adventure
I miss the great outdoors since I broke my back a few years ago. But It's awesome I get to see trips like this through the lens of others. Definitely thankful for that.
I hear you friend. I've been in your shoes for about 20 years, but I luckily learned to adapt and, after finding the right cot that works for me, I have been able to do this again in the last few years. I feel your pain and wish you well.
This film played a big role in inspiring us to paddle across Labrador this past summer. Thanks for the inspiration and quality content.
Hey, that's great to hear! What was the trip? Do you have any photos or videos?
@@DavidHartmanFilms Boreal to Barrenlands project
@@NorthernScavenger Oh amazing, I read about you guys and your trip. I see the film is out now. I'm headed out paddling for a week but will take a look when I get back.
Congrats on a huge trip.
Fantastic documentary, could watch hours of this... Well done gentlemen, what an accomplishment. Koodos all around.
The best adventure I have watched. Amazing video and your hearts are strong.... Thx for sharing .. Jim
Would love to have a beer with people like you and go canoeing. I appreciate that you mentioned the hardships involved
Life is too short, what a great experience....love my family but i miss the days i spent in the field....should be a lesson that all the hard work makes one realize how alive you are....memories are the best things we can make
Turbo (AKA Ryan Forsyth) was a guide on my first ever canoe trip from Onakawana to Moosonee for a grade 10 class trip. That trip started my love of tripping and being in a canoe.
Great to hear Matt. I mentioned this to Turbo and he said that was a great trip, and great to hear from you.
Absolutely strong work from all you dudes. Hard to work against what your mind and body tells ya to do. But then you wake up and do it again. Right on.
Will watch for the third time.... can't get enough of this. The country.... and the Spirit !!!
We should all give a thanks to Dave and Kielyn Morin for their help. Good luck to you folks.
Oh, I assume that is supposed to be Dave and Kielyn Marrone, of Lure of the North?
@@wildernesscanoeassociation Yes you're right, I hadn't noticed that typo. We stayed at their place for a night before the trip while they were away. One of us washed their cast iron frying pan with soap and the ensuing discussion became our first argument, ha.
I love it when your expedition canoe becomes a race horse,I'm sure you got "air"off of that standing wave,thank you for recording,there is adventure still.
Next level adventure, story, editing, what an inspiring project and a beautiful movie, thank you! watched it 3 times so far..
Glad you enjoyed it!
True cinema quality and a impressive feat. Well done lads! A true test of mind and body.
I remember being blown away by this months ago when i first saw it. I didn't bookmark/favorite, but somehow just found it again.... Even better the 2nd time :). Love the shots, LOVE the editing, love the feeling building as it goes on. love the music..
ty

@@davidhartman2717 Pittsburg Pennsylvania to New Orleans Louisiana , leave Sept 1st..Trying to time it right for Heat and Bugs..Alzheimer’s Adventure for a Cure..Season 3 River Rats..
Wow! Thank you for making this amazing film. I became interested in the paddle route after going to Big Trout Lake FN to administer the Covid vaccines. Thank you for the inspiration
Hey Jim, cool to hear that's how you came across the route. Someone else reached out about some info on that section into Big Trout recently to maybe it's getting more traffic these days. Thanks for the note.
Great trip guys, you are a tough crew of men. Well f ing done.
This is so fantastic. Truly so amazing. I've spent plenty of time on the trail, and your words / perspective resonate so much. Amazing video!
What an ambitious journey! Thanks for including some of the most difficult moments. Hard to believe you got significant footage for each day all edited down to under 30 minutes! Both are major feats!
A most excellent adventure, thanks for sharing it!
Thanks for watching!
A trip you'll never forget. Thx for sharing. Bunch of great guys!
This is absolutely incredible. Amazing journey you guys took on, and amazing camera work for the whole trip.
Epic and absolutelly wonderful film! Thank you, from a Norwegian canoer!
Hey, I know it’s been a very long time since this has been uploaded. But I just wanted to say that I keep coming back to this video. The production quality is great and it reminds me of my own favourite places.
This is a superb video of a long tough trip in Northern Ontario ending up in a remote part of the James Bay Lowlands. Interestingly and honestly narrated with great footage of a wild little-visited part of the North. Many thanks to the creators for making and sharing this, lots of fun to watch!
Hal Pashler glad you liked it!
that speech was on point at 23:11. great trip guys. very moving!
Amazing Adventure. I would trip with you guys any where, and time. Great job by all. Thank you all, for being a part of this footage, and for sharing. Until next time.
Thanks, it was our pleasure of course. Where's your next trip?
Leaving May 1st for Red Lake Ont. Going to look at 40 ac of shore line, 20 miles from town.. Cheap for bugging out. A little something to to give to my son, and his. As globule warming, and immigration increase, So will the cost of this land. Better get some while you still can.
Absolutelly wonderful film! Thanks for sharing, a Dutch canoer!
Woah! Nice job! This previous summer I did almost the same trip! I started Windigo lake, and then down the Windigo, Pipestone, Asheweig, Fawn, and Severn, also ending at fort Severn!
Edit: you guys are lucky, those small creeks were totally dry for us.
Wow! That must have been a slog. To be fair, we carried most of it too :) Sounds like a great trip.
Yeah, it’s a tricky but great route, and I was lucky enough to be with some pretty cool people too.
One of the most inspiring canoe trips I've ever watching on CZcams.
Really cool and well done video! A true accomplishment!
What a wonderful documentary. Thank you for sharing this amazing experience with the rest of us. Beautiful!
I enjoyed this film a lot. Looking at the Google map of the Canadian Shield, I can't even imagine how you found your way through that jumble of terrain.
best wilderness canoe movie ever!
Thanks Martin!!
I started my last trip on the otoskwin river! The fishing was amazing.
I stumbled upon this video earlier today, and am greatly inspired. What an amazing documentary and incredible adventure. I can't even imagine the epic feeling you all must have felt upon arriving at Fort Severn. Thank you for this.
Thanks Nick. Getting to the end is always bittersweet, especially this time.
Perhaps strange, but this is the probably the 6th time i've watched your video. It's... beautiful... and powerful
Wow......amazing trip but more than that your film nailed why it is you do those adventures! Thanks for sharing!
Our pleasure.
An incredible trip and the video production is simply spectacular.
Incredible video. You guys have it all figured out, thank you for sharing!
I absolutely loved this. Beautiful cinematography, story and authenticity. You are on another level.
An excellent film of an excellent journey.
Thanks for watching!
Top marks for your filmmaking and editing, outstanding. And 10 out of 10 for your tenacity & grit too. By far one of the best canoe adventure trips I've seen on YT, the overall quality is far & above some of the more ‘well known’ bushcrafters on here with zquillions of views and subscribers... funny old world hey? - you deserve more. Greetings from England.
Hey Andy, we originally released on Vimeo so we racked up initial views there. Thanks for the comments!!
Wow! Great film. Thanks for sharing the challenge of the journey.
Our pleasure!
This was amazing and inspiring. I wish I could embark on such journeys... but I lack experience and I have no friends that share the same desires.
Join a club.
Gotta love upstream travel and crossing watersheds!
Excellent job men! Thank you for sharing
Great filming sometimes I feel it is a Hollywood movie.
Amazing filming and narration
Thank for sharing this great adventure of yours. You guys are indeed inspiring and hardworking. This video was incredible !
Thank you for sharing what many will never have the chance to experience.
I just discovered your channel. I am really impressed with your adventures and the quality of your videos. Thanks for sharing.
In awe of you guys, good trip, good video.
Yo my vice principle in this, Ryan Forsyth, holy shit, that's sick
Really really well done. a special trip, the type with coarsely cut memories...
Thanks Alive Outside. It's nice to think back to this trip right now.
Amazing video. So real and honest. I felt your pain when you were down to last three cigarettes, lol.
Great film. Canoes were incredible, light and strong. Looks a lot harder than canoeing down the River Severn.
I pride myself in being an adventurer and somewhat of a determined individual, but you guys are one notch above me. I've been on long trips where I've gone up to 9 days without seeing another soul. People ask me why I do it. You guys get it. I also like trips where the weather and geography are challenging. It makes the trip more memorable years later, and it reinforces why I go out in the first place. Our daily lives are too easy, so it's good to go out once in a while and remind ourselves that it is. As for the north, I've lived above the 54th parallel most of my adult life, so I know the pull it can have on an individual. Great video. Safe travels. Cheers from Alberta.
i really enjoyed this video. thanks for sharing it. the personal bits just drew me right in. . . the destination is fort severn, but we didn't come on this trip to get to fort severn. . .
Canadian wilderness, some of the toughest. Canadian bugs, even tougher! Great canoe trip and I bet a ton of character was built on that one. Thanks for sharing. :)
TY for sharing it w us.
Awesome video guys. It really resonated with me, thinking of our past trips (much shorter) in northern Ontario.
I understand the lure of the north and that urge to journey deep into the waters of the wilderness. Hard work, but you always miss being there.
There is just something about working together through these struggles in the beauty and misery of the wild. It draws you closer and more appreciative of the life we have.
Thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to our next trip up there.
That's what I call a character-building trip! Great footage nice to see the tough stuff
Hi David, I watched your film with great pleasure. Also I tried to find "Distant Summers", from which your read at some point. Couldn't find it but found "Sleeping Island" also by P.G. Downes. Great story and It really got me thinking about the way I go canoeing. Thanks, Martin
Hi Martin, thanks for watching and for the nice comment. It's nice to think about reading aloud from P.G. Downes on a remote northern river right now.
Fantastic film work and amazing trip guys. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing, you really put the story together well, great cinematography.
woot! Just watched it again... the good stuff. Thanks for taking the time.
Very well made film boys. Bravo!
Really enjoyed everything about this film. I need to meet people to do these things with.
I enjoyed your film. Too bad about the rum and coke though. The scene at 15:30 reminded me of one of my own trips. That was in 1988. There were two of us; my wife and me near Lake Superior Provincial Park. We just finished another tough portage. And there it was. A small lake that offered zero draft. The canoe needed skis. It was muck and tall grass and some water. At the end of each stroke, the canoe halted. It was grueling . She said, "never again; I am never ever canoeing with you again." I said, "oh, so you'd rather canoe with a greenhorn". She liked that about as much as she liked the stubborn no-draft lake. Today, nearly 30 years later; now I'm 60, she's slightly younger, we still paddle the same 17'2" Mad River Explorer...together. Thanks for the film.
Great story. The swamp waters of Northern Ontario have ended a few relationships, I'm sure of it.
you guys will be getting more views. ABSOLUTELY amazing video. Just awesome.
+BigFoot's Backyard Thanks for watching! It was a wild trip.
Epic Journey! Nice edit, thanks for sharing!
Cool to use an Old Town Tripper - old school!!
This is the 3rd time I've watched this and I can't believe its only got 44k views
This was excellent!! Thank you for sharing that with us.
Beautiful
I've watched this many times (on Vimeo too before it was on CZcams). It's such a great film and judging by the other comments here, I'm not the only one who thought so. I think you've got a "cult classic" here that, like Bill Mason's Waterwalker, will be enjoyed by canoeists for years to come.
Thanks for the high praise @grounded81.
I can’t believe this did not go viral!
Awesome video!!!!
I get out as much as I can. Ha just saying I am hoping you guys have more of these that I can watch.
Amazing film! Greets from The Netherlands
Great job gentlemen, I envy your trip! You guys are simply an inspiration...
Great video guys, terrific stuff. It's a shame you don't have more views, its way better than most stuff on youtube.
I love this video... honest and true. Well done.
That was an amazing watch. Thank you for sharing your experience
amazing video. I've watched it a few times now. Gets me excited about going out canoeing every time.
Thanks louay!
