    Way to go Adam! I knew Adam a bit when he was younger. A really great guy and a true guitar prodigy. Played classical guitar performances all around Toronto including long stints as one of the in-house performers at the Royal York Hotel lounge.

    Thanks for the falashbacks Matt. About 30(?) years ago, we flew in to Smoothwater Lake & camped on the Island. Over the next week or so we made our way over to Scarecrow Lake and did the Ishptina Ridge hike (I climed the tower), then made our way over to and down the Sturgeon River and back to our cars on L. Temagami., an unforgetable trip to say the least. Happy paddling in 2024+

    Matt - Where do you find those pots you use with wide handles? BTW - loved this vid. I have great memories of the Temagami area. Did a semi-loop a few years back in the Twinkle Lake area.

    Waterwalker is one of my favorite films, I've made some paddling docs myself. Kudos on this beautiful piece! I'd love to hear about your process, cameras, etc. It's not any easy feat dealing with camera gear in a canoe... nicely done.

    heck yeah! Waterwalker is just so special, Bill Mason and Ken Buck are absolute legends… I Appreciate the kind words Zak! This was shot with a GH5 and Mavic Pro… My whole mission with this film was just to capture the feeling of being alone in the wilderness on a canoe trip, something slow and experiential that bridges the connection between man and nature. Thanks for watching !
