So inspiring Caleb, why you don’t have your own TV show surprises, this is real life adventure !

Beau Miles vibes, really excellent stuff. Loved the sneaky shot of the emus! Nothing beats the solitude, hey.

Hahaha luckily for my drone, it decided to not work for 2 days

Inspiring, thanks for sharing. Love the drone shots, interesting landscapes. Wishing you more water and less portages :) Audio was great, what mic setup do you use? We do a lot of kayaking and camping in the Pacific Northwest, mostly Washington State and British Columbia. Looking forward to following your future adventures.

Well, some of that definitely did not look easy! Stunning scenery and very well shot as usual. Hope you had a great time

Bloody magnificent! Dawn chorus in the mornings, eagles during the day all among fantastic wilderness

Wonderful

So untouched by man, loving it!

Really enjoying the kayak episodes!!

Awesome video. Reminds me of the murrumbidgee in some spots. Always love the vids mate

Thanks so much man, you just made my day. Jealous is an understatement

Kayak good for fishing Salty but for that trip you need a Packraft mate😉

Really enjoying watching this. Came across your awesome video as I'm looking for an inland (accessible) river system in central/nth qld) for an adventure. Very inspirational !! Love your work!!

You’re one patient man Salty!!!!looks so intense in parts, good on you for tackling😊

Excellent video mate 👍 Just found your channel... now I've got some catching up to do! Paddlers do it tough in WA by the look of it!

Wow!!! WA has some serious beauty. I just got put onto your channel from my brother, stoked he recommended I check your channel out. Great video, next level cinematography, just magical. One Life, One Search, Shane

Epic! Just as well no doggie along for the awkward trip!

What brand Kayak please, it certainly put up with some terrible rocks? I felt guilty watching you struggle in this one. Magnificent country by the look of it

Hey, this is a Kayaks WA kayak.

Mate you’ve got the patience of a saint …..I’ll stick to black wood for my paddling adventures 😉

Awsome program mate, quality of the videography is amazing. Just wondering what sort of length is that 'yak ?

@SaltyDavenport

Its about 5m

What time of year was this? Thinking of planning a trip starting from Galena bridge camp to the town what was the river level like from that point?

How do you know the water you came across for drinking is consumable?

What's the bottom of the kayak look like? Great video!

Not as bad as I expected but not great either.

Where did you start from mate ?

You need to portage the canoe around the rocky areas.

That would be the dream mate, too much unpacking of the kayak to be able to carry it and it would have to happen too many times each day be be feasible

What date did you actually go? I’m trying to compare the recorded water level with what I’m seeing in your video so I can judge water for next year (or theyear after)

Hey mate, I think it was the 4th August just after a few weeks of rain up there.

@@SaltyDavenport cool thanks. That makes the level recorded at Emu Springs 10.25-10.22, I bet a few days earlier on 1/8 when it was 10.4 it would have been a little easier.

Mate, I was pleasantly surprised with your video and the quality of the footage as well as the narration. I went from at the beginning thinking, oh great it's some bloke who's woken up looking like he'd just had sex with a carwash, to being amazed at the footage, especially the drone footage. How did you manage to recharge your batteries?

haha Thanks Mike. Does the sex with a car wash imply that I look polished or rough around the edges?
