Hello Marc, looks like you and Lexi are paddling too fast for the internet to stream you in a crisp vision! Well done for organising to have a lake for your exclusive event 😂

Very well used canoe. I'm sure if it could talk, it would have some amazing stories to tell. Thanks for sharing!

Howdy Marc- that’s a neat old canoe. Too bad someone doesn’t restore it but I guess there’s no way to know who it belongs to. Take care and God bless

When you said the old canoe was a tool, that got to me. Those words are so true, and not to many these days realize that. I'm guessing 100 years old.

Sorry I missed this Marc. Got caught up doing electrical repairs to a 1948 3.3 HP Evinrude outboard that has been getting the better of me. Hoping to get it working and on my freighter canoe by next week. Audio came in nicely @1:37 and you hear your voice clearly @ 2:30 when you first spoke. Hope you had a good outing:)

Pretty cool. Thanks for sharing!

I have used and restored wood canvas canoes for a long time, mostly Chestnut Canoe Company canoes. That canoe looks like an old Chestnut Ogilvy with the close ribs, even the decks look like old Chestnut decks from the 20’s/30’s and those round headed slotted gunnel screws look like what Chestnut used before the “Robertson” square drives came into existence around the early 20’s. But, I could be all wrong too, I’m no expert. I don’t even think Chestnut made a 14’ Ogilvy, 16’ was the smallest. Anyway, that’s a nice restoration candidate if the fiberglass comes off without too much difficulty/damage to the planking. The nice thing about wood canvas canoes is you get to enjoy them during the warmer seasons and then perform maintenance during the off season, which can be very rewarding. I enjoy older gear so any time you can share your knowledge about use and maintenance I’ll be there. Thanks P.S.- Keewaydin Canoe Camp in Temagami still uses paddles to portage their wood canvas canoes.

Wow my friend, that canoe must have some great stories from one or more beaver hunters. It was part of the life of someone who also lived in that cabin. Just as some people collect old cars, someone might also like that canoe and repair it for the pleasure of having it. I found the explanations you give about the use of oars and the way they rowed interesting. The best for you my great friend.

Thanks for sharing, Thumbs up 👍🏻

Love the old cedar strip boats. I grew up in my grandfather’s 16 foot cedar strip boat. Cool find Marc! Appreciate the close up look of this beauty Brother! 🍻

Nice to see this old beauty. I can sure appreciate its history and purposeful care and maintenance given its condition having had 2 cedarstrippers. My first canoe was a similar but newer 14 foot Huron model I got for 125 dollars in 1970. Same year I found an abandoned trappers canoe not far from the family cottage. It was in rough shape but my brother and I dragged out of the bush. My father replaced the gunwales, thwarts and seats, added a keel and fiberglassed it. Its a Tremblay and still in the family after selling the camp 3 years ago.

They still building cedar strip boats but not sure about the canoes . A huge shop in Powassan builds the boats.

Still looks great enough to try out ,shame it’s not being used ,nice v

I love the lines on those classic canoes. I didn't know about the old thwart though, a nice bit of history. Well done, Marc. 👍

Awesome :)

Great video. Very informative & told me everything I needed to know about this backpack. The extra clips showing the pack in use kept my attention & showed you went a step above the others! Keep adding those clips & you will surely grab everyone else’s attention too!

Great review. This is the kind of review I like to see. Well edidted. The video clips of you actually using it in the field made everything you spoke on clear and concise. Well thought out , perfect execution. Thanks for taking the time to put this together to share your thoughts. I feel more confident in purchasing this pack now.

Thanks for the video. This is useful reference information.

Stated that log fire like a pro - thanks Marc!

Nice fire, Marc. Stay safe and stay cool

Hello Marc, how much heat escapes if you were sitting by the fire 🔥. I can see if you put a pot on top of the logs where the fire is that it’d boil quickly. I haven’t seen the long logs being burnt this way when I go camping.

Riley will be making the fire soon--Training continues!

Hi Marc - good cooking indeed. The moose steak sandwiches looked amazing - Awesome video and glad you’re feeling better - thanks and cheers

Most people exist nowadays,you live life my man.Kudos u Sahha

I’ll never forget the black flys at young lake lodge in Ontario, crazy times. I enjoyed the video my friend, a person can learn a-lot from you.

I didn't hold back, words to live by! Great trip, man secret lake is nice !

Marc.....Gawd! Just watching you make that cheese steak had my belly rumbling! A++++ camping cuisine! Glad you're feeling better and thanks for brining me along!

This whole video has convinced me to get a break action and not a pump action. My Uncle told me to try one or the other but seeing these beautiful guns and the simplicity of how to use them, thank you! (This will be my first shotgun I've shot others but I want to handle them better)

Oh my goodness the flies are insane. Glad to have run across your videos. Thanks for sharing

Fish Steaks, Elk Steaks, Beer, Pancake, Camp, Wow Dude That's Great BLESSINGS TO YOU.

Great job Marc! Black flies are the worst! Well edited, great drone shots, excellent cooking and extremely entertaining…one of your best videos to date! Loved it Brother! 👊🏻🍻

Only thing coming to mind is ''c'est de la mouche en tabarnack!''

Hey Marc. Id say that's the worse case of bugs I've ever seen. That was quite the trip, you didn't disappoint. You are the king of outdoors.

Secret Lake....yessssss Island Camp...yessssss Buckwheat pancakes ...yessssss Always better than working !!!! Great video Marc !! 👍👍🌲🌲🌲🇨🇦🍻

Great video, Marc. The bugs looked absolutely brutal, man.

Oh boy yummy feed

Crazy amount of flies! That's a great spot to catch a little wind at least. Drone footage was a nice addition. Buckwheat pancakes 👍🏻

awesome trip , the food looked amazing . You are lucky to have a place to go like that . 👍🏻🍺

The flies LOVE you Marc!! The wind-fallen tree could not have been more perfect. Have you ever looked up the Jack Links "Messin' With Sasquatch" videos? They are too funny. Check them out. Bummer about the nasal infection. That must be uncomfortable (but probably not as uncomfortable as sharing a tent with Doug after he eats baked beans). We Love pancakes! Yours looked delicious too. Another fun time (for the flies) at Secret lake! The jalapeno Havarti made me hungry! Great Video. Have a fantastic week ahead! (and a pat for Lexie and Riley).

Marc in my opinion you are a great cook. Everything you cook looks delicious! I enjoyed this adventure except for those black flies

We've been lucky with the blackflies this year, so we're wondering what mosquito season will be like now here in NS. Spent yourself some pretty marvelous days out there...that's the way to live. Hope the nasal infection has cleared up as I know that they can be brutal. Take good care and enjoy the new week ahead.

Howdy Marc- sorry to hear you’ve been a bit under the weather lately. Great outing on your Secret Lake. I don’t think I could handle the black flies. They sounded like a swarm of bees. Enjoyed the video. God bless

Great video Marc. Love to see you conquer the outdoors!

Great trip! The food looked delicious as always. The blackflies are crazy this year, a bit of smoke should keep them at bay. Thanks for sharing this adventure. Take care Marc!

A nice outing for sure despite the black flies Marc. Knowing what to expect and being prepared is half the battle. I sure dont miss those conditions where you cant escape them so being on the water is the best refuge. Hope things are getting better healthwise and being outdoors improves things. As a kid we always stopped in Sudbury going camping on Lac aux Sables so seeing the slag cars dump their firey loads was a highlight. Dad grew up in Sudbury in the 30s and 40s and shared lots of memories of those times. I can still tell them he repeated them so often. His Dad operated an IGA store on Elm Street for years before starting Ritchie Falls Lodge during WW2. So now, thanks to you its time for pancakes:) Salut!

Nice video! Lucky you can take your grandson out. Mine is out west and not here very often. Maybe some day.
