Lost at Last... An Algonquin Canoe Story

Full Documentary of possibly, our favourite completed route through the heart of Algonquin Provincial Park. This is the complete story of our "Half Nipissing Loop" series.
We really wanted to make the original series into a single, documentary-style film, and to include some of the footage that we hadn't used in the series. This Algonquin park canoe trip takes us right through the heart of Algonquin, to the Nipissing River.
If you watched the original series, you will remember we encountered some difficulties along the way. With countless portages, that all seemed to be uphill, it was a trip to remember! Seeing some amazing wildlife, including moose, herons, loons and turtles all added to this canoe trip.
We decided to call this film "Lost at Last", which describes how we felt, returning to the backcountry for the first time after pandemic restrictions were lifted in Ontario, allowing us to camp. Finally! We were able to let loose in the great outdoors again!
We sincerely hope you enjoy the story in this documentary style format. As always, we would love to hear your thoughts in the comment section below!
Some kind people have reached out recently to ask how they can support us. Our honest answer is, if you enjoy our channel and would like to see more, please like, subscribe, and share! It truly makes a difference and means the world to us... Plenty more to come!

    Disclaimer: We had to detour from our original plan on this trip, due to extremely low water levels. We felt this was the most sensible and safest decision. Some people have reached out to express some concern about this detour and the reservation system. This was the first day the park had reopened. It was incredibly quiet at that time. Before rerouting, we used our GPS device to contact a family member to check camping availability on other lakes. All lakes were completely open. We would never take a reserved campsite from a fellow camper, and we definitely wouldn’t want to encourage others to do that....Hope you guys enjoy the film!

    One of the great beauties of a wilderness trip is responding to the environment. Good on you guys to check but even if you didn’t your well within the traditional to move through the landscape more favourable for travel. In a tent set up, your not bothering anybody even if you had to crash “their spot”. Anybody on here who throws you shade for doing it needs to get out an challenge themselves more

    Absolutely beautiful video! I've kayaked numerous rivers and lakes for most of my life and have always dreamed of paddling through Algonquin Park, but have reached a point in my life's journey where it's just not physically possible anymore. Being able to follow along with your journey thru this video helped me to feel like I was there in real time. The sound of the paddle in the water. The loons. The quietness of the lake. The rustle of the wind in the pines. Oh my... I can't thank you enough for this video!!

    Wonderful v.log. I've done many adventures in my life across a spectrum of navigational modes. In 2005 I did my first PCT hike (one of a few). There was a AZDPCTKOP festival going on. The winner of the 'gear contest' was a person who had their PCT itinerary in hand and ripped it up. It was very symbolic of an adventure. The truest mark of a great adventurer is to create an itinerary... and then proceed to rip it up as you go along.

    Magnificent :) Truly. We traveled through a portion of your route (the part from the Nippising to Maple Lake, through the Oslers) last fall, though we didn't do it all in one day!! That was also one of my favorite trips in Algonquin. Beautiful rugged solitude. You two make me smile. I love your tripping style, your rapport with one another, your laughter. your respect for one another and the natural world. (oh, and your pups)

    Great job and great location, I've paddled the complete Nip river a few times as well as cutting up through to Maple...Used to stay at a cabin I call red camp, an old loggers cabin before it was refurbished and used as an Algonquin rental. Absolutely loved seeing all the moose along the river. We used to go in at Kearny and get picked up a week later in Brent the other side of Mattawa. Did it twice one year, 1st one in the park in the spring and last one out in the fall, now that was a good year lol

    VERY beautiful! I still remember a canoe trip way up in Canada. In but a few days the “noise in my head” of civilization faded and there was such peace! I REALLY did not want to leave. I really prefer to find a good place to camp and then explore from there instead of packing up and moving each day. Mosquitos could be heard during this program. Even though one’s vision is reduced a but a full upper mosquito net suit to me, beats trying to used repellant. FWIW

    That's REALLY a beautiful video and I like your tarp/bug net very much! Message to everyone; When canoeing and think it's tough, remember the Voyageurs, the best canoe people that ever existed on this planet. They were 99% French Canadians, and were those transporting all the furs from way up north-west all the way to Montreal. And this, for 10 hours + every single day. Add to that several portages a day, sometimes up to 15-20 and you get the picture. And that's not all... They were transporting not one, but two bails of 90lbs each on their shoulders at each portage. But wait! there's more... Once at camp, just before sunset, they still had to set the tents for the "bourgeois", then do the canoe repairs and eat. And only then they could go sleep under their canoe. All that would start again at 4:30-5:00am the next day. @ 20:58 that most likely a female duck trying to get the attention to lure away potential predators from her babies. @25:48 Quick tip here: Never carry fishing rods like that. You'll most certainly break them if you fall. A better way is to carry them reel first and rod length behind you instead. If you fall, the tip won't hit the ground (or lightly) and the impact will go to the reel and the stronger part of the rod.

So they ate Pemmican 90% of the time. Those canoe were VERY unstable.
