    A two-week tour through a paddler's paradise: Quetico Provincial Park in northern Ontario, Canada. 50 lakes, 60 portages, and 100s of fish. The longest trip of our lives by time and distance challenged us in new ways, leaving us with memories that will last a lifetime.
    MAPS
    The Paddle Planner website is a phenomenal resource for Quetico and elsewhere. You can follow along here if you're into that: www.paddleplanner.com/tools/m...
    ....OR, here's a simple map this shows all possible paths we were considering before and during our trip. Our final/chosen route is intentionally omitted as we want that to be a mystery to you as it was to us in the moment. This is the map we used during the trip like a GPS device, with Avenza Maps app on my phone. GPS doesn't require cellular service.

    The odd person will ask why repost old content? New content is preferred, of course, but there are a lot of reasons for reposts. If a repost is not of interest, I get that too. If you want to try to avoid them, if it says FULL in the title it's almost certainly a repost. But here's the case for making them:
    -Most of all, prior to 2021, everything I did was in Windows Movie Maker. This leaves a lot to be desired for me as an editor and for an audience as well. I have way more control now with Resolve, especially with respect to audio.
    -This video in particular we really wanted to repost because of the frame juddering from the camera malfunction. In Resolve, I was able to correct this to a large degree.
    -Reposts come 1.5-2 years after an original series. I don't think most people will remember a video that well after that amount of time and it's almost like watching something anew.
    -Moreover, the channel grows a lot in that timeframe and most new subs don't go through the back catalogue. This brings it to the surface for those people and likely a much larger audience as the algorithm increasingly recognizes a channel with time.
    -A generally tighter edit. This is 2h19m vs the original series totaling 4 hours. It's edited from scratch, not just a straight repost of the originals, and has a better pace.
    -I haven't been out lately so I time reposts to fill gaps.
    -I used to split trips up into multi-part series but I don't like that anymore and want to provide full version edits of longer trips.
    -It's a fun escape for me to edit in winter, and hopefully a nice break for viewers in winter to see a summer trip 🙂

    Stumbled upon your videos last week and have watched many of them since then. My late husband and I did the BWCA in the same fashion as your Quetico trip. Your video has brought back a lot of memories for me and I thank you for that. I am now 70 and my husband would have been 76. He was a US Forester and worked many places here in the US and just loved the outdoors just like you do. You and Erin remind me of my husband and I and the trips we took. We spent two weeks in the BWCA, two weeks on the Allagash in Maine and two weeks on the Green River in Utah down to the the confluence of the Colorado river. We also had many shorter trips all over the US most every weekend. I would like to make a few recommendations if I may. Love to see you with a dedicated bow or stern line, one you can detach when needed but one you can tie off on a tree, rock or brush to keep your boat safe. I would also like to suggest getting "Crazy Creeks" to use as you paddle or when you are on shore. They are lightweight, easy to pack, and can save your back either while in the boat or when on shore. One thing we did for our longer trips is pack a small "ER" kit that might help you when out in the willywags. I went to my Doc's and asked for an antibiotics script for Giardia, and another for any general infection such as a bladder infection or wound infection. I also asked for a more potent pain killer in case of a bad ankle sprain or fracture. Just enough to get you to civilization and professional help. The other two things in that kit were an eye kit and a tooth kit, both small and packable but invaluable when necessary. You may never need these, but to have them when needed is golden. You have lifted my spirits and reminded me of times past, and for that I am truly grateful. I look forward to many more videos from you and I paddle along with you as I watch. Many thanks.

      My heart goes out to you as I imagine it's bittersweet to relive those memories with your late husband, but I'm sure they're also too precious not to cherish and I'm glad that you could revisit those times us. We truly appreciate you looking out for us and sharing your insight, particularly regarding eye and tooth kits. I've never really thought about having specific kits for them but I can only imagine how agonizing an issue with either would be out there. Thank you again for your touching message 💚💚

      @@LostLakes I second the eye kit recommendation. I had to cut a trip short last year because I woke up with a deeply red and infected eye, out of nowhere. I hadn’t thought to pack antibiotic eye drops. Such a simple thing that can make or break a trip. Another one I’m adding to my kit this year is kinesiology tape, so I can stabilize an ankle or knee if I twist it or if it’s just irritated and needs support (and a printout of how to use the tape for different issues). You can pre-cut strips of the tape. They’re super light and take up hardly any space.

    As a Spaniard myself and keen fisherman I always dreamed of a journey around the northern forests of Alaska and Canada. Those gorgeous places have magic to me as if they were a heavenly paradise on Earth. Hearing those names like British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan…one lake after another with tens of beautiful islands to explore where to set up your tents and sleep gazing the stars. Those clean waters and currents with plenty of fish: a pike now then several smallies on a row then a number of gorgeous golden walleye… and even largemouth so far North! And the icing of the cake in the form of lake trout.
    Clean water to drink, good fish to eat, healthy fruit like blueberries all around to enjoy…
    Those gorgeous dawns with the bird’s sound… those gray heavy loaded clouds heralding a storm…
    A dream come true, definitely a dream come true.
    My English listening skill isn’t very good and I missed much of the meaning of your talking. Yet I don’t turn on the subtitles because I am raptured by such an immense beautiful scenery and that’s what matters the most to me: not to be woken up and distracted from such pleasure.
    Quite a fortunate discovery having discovered this channel.

Jon, have you ever thought of writing a book (at least someday) about all your canoeing and camping experiences, a book that answers all the questions people like me ask? Being the artist you are, you'd be a terrific writer.

    Thank you for posting this incredible account of your trip to Quetico. Your cinematography and laid-back approach to storytelling is phenomenal. I also appreciate the sparing use of music. It's truly transformative and puts the viewer with you all in the environment.
    My buddy and I have been doing an annual trip to Quetico for the past ten years but new babies and other factors mean we're missing our trip this year! Your video was the perfect substitute to transport me back there and get my excited for next year's trip. Have camped on Blueberry Island a few times, it's a beautiful site. I also recognized a few of your other sites on Pickerel and other spots along the journey. Such a beautiful place to camp and explore.
    I can tell you that Snapping Turtles are a common visitor near the campsites in Quetico. Most likely folks are feeding them so unfortunately they're pretty habituated to the campsites. They're super fun to watch though!
    Loved the moment with the lost net too. I dropped a fishing rod last year just north of Quetico lake so I can relate to that experience! Frustrating but cheers to you both for landing fish without it. Anyway, I'm very glad to have found your channel and am looking forward to more content! Maybe we'll see you on the trail one day!

      From what I understand the tick will regurgitate before it lets go. This is when it transfers Lyme disease to you if the tick is carrying it. If that's true then alcohol may not be a good idea. Food for thought.
