Thanks for all the kind concern about Erin's knee 💚 Thankfully she recovered very well and seems no worse for wear now. And to answer another FAQ, she had just graduated from her masters program in counselling psychology about a week before the trip :) The band she wears is just for trips so something doesn't happen to her engagement ring and we plan to get married in 2023.

A couple years ago I was going down the KZread rabbit hole while sitting in my garage babysitting a brisket on the smoker. I was looking for videos about fly-in fishing in Ontario (in anticipation to a 3 generation trip to Northern Ontario with my dad, son, and uncle), I stumbled across Backcountry Angling Ontario. I loved how the videos were shot and edited. As a lifelong backpacker I also identified with your simple minimalist camping style. Within a couple months, I had pretty much watched all your canoe trips and realized I was going to have to head out to the boreal forest for a backcountry canoe trip someday (despite about a 30ish year gap since I last paddled a canoe). After many mornings practicing locally in a p.o.s. plastic rental Old Towne, I did a solo trip to Quetico over Labor Day last month . As a novice paddler the wind caused me fits (and a few nervous moments), but I loved every minute of my trip despite the challenges. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE INSPIRATION! It’s awesome to find a new passion at nearly 50 years old. Now I’ve just got to get a little better at dealing with a crosswind….

Appreciate that so much Chris! I've been there with the wind...

There's so much to enjoy about this. The added nuances and details (the night time fauna, the shoreline video captures of you two passing by, the aurora borealis) are scintillating. Such a video spectacle of topography from above and below in addition to the dual view aspect of the rapids runs is nothing short of astonishing. Good gracious there's nothing on TV today like this!! From here on, I'm just left speechless at this amount of time, work, and energy. Amazing!
