Solo canoe trip on August 8, 2016. I travelled 27 miles (43 km, visited 17 lakes in 12 hours - a long day trip. THENEWWRANGLER: Great video, I just ordered a swift pack boat the 13. 6 like Joe uses. I also ordered it with the removable carbon yoke, i noticed you are using the warner paddle with a water weenie on it as a way to support the boat on your shoulders while portaging. Did I waste some money by getting the removable yoke? how do you find that method of carry? how do you attach the paddle to the boat in order to set this method of carry up?

Im not understanding the reason for your marathon trip. My own trips to Algonquin, BWCA or Quetico was to reconnect with nature, Spirit and Creator. Your trip reminds me of the man telling me of how sweet the honeysuckle smelled while driving his sports car at 70 mph. No matter how long a trip I took, it was never long enough, for as soon as it ended, I wished to return.

Howdy, I want to thank you and all the Videoers for your beautiful trips that you share. I sustained a head injury in Sept 2015 due to that I can not i can't do what y'all do, trust me I am thrilled to tag along on your trips. Does your Mrs ever go with you or is this basically a male deally? Keep on keepin on. Stay safe

Ill be doing this loop in July, thank you for doing it in one day, Ill be splitting it up into a 3 day trip. Glad to know its doable in one day. Even though booking it becomes a hassle because its not within a reasonable distance from your previous night stay. Thanks again Mr James.

Great trip Shawn. Really enjoy that you give info on some of the obstacles to look out for in the area, and that you offer advice on different route to take depending if one can handle inclined carry of not. Just over all taking the time to inform as you share your trip.

Nice video man! Just spent 4 nights at that campsite at 2: 34. One of my favourites I have ever been to. There was a skeleton of a cow moose only about 90 metres into the forest near the shore, very cool.

There are some old hemlocks in between cradle and plough and also by the mohawk lakes, hundreds of years old. I love the wild feeling on those portages. Awesome trip, Shawn.

I know it's a year old but just wanted to say thanks for the videos. You do a great job. What software are you using to outline the map and where can I find that map online?

Yes its a good thing to know your body can do it but next year, one down the line may not be so easy as I find when I go out scrambling on rocks. Cheers Shawn.

43km is impressive solo. We usually stick to 30km days + portages and were a couple. And we are fairly experienced out there, but we do take a lot more gear.
