@@phil6844 - That's one of the stranger comments I've seen in a while. The NFB funds projects. If he works there he'll get a salary... but he'll be an office worker, not a filmmaker.
What I love about this channel the most….No opinionated nonsense, no bs. Just beautiful videography and great commentary by a man at peace. So refreshing!
Aah! As the days grew longer and the snow faded, I wondered how long it would be before Jon treated us to a paddle in the water and an epic back country adventure. ❤ As sure a sign as any that the soft seasons are here, and Im ready for them.
Every time I find one of your videos, I settle in ~ almost meditate. I go there with you and find a "welling up" of deep appreciation for where you are, the silence, the solitude, the value of appreciating being alone in the world but with a course and plan. Again and again. Thank you so much for this. 〰✨🌿✨〰
Cannot get enough of Lost Lakes Channel. It's not just about the production, but John's overall philosophy towards nature. It's changed the way I approach fishing and camping. More efficient and relaxed in the approach, and more respectful towards the venues and creatures that inhabit them. The discipline makes the whole process more enjoyable.
John I flew into the headwater lake of this river back in 2017 and it sounds pretty much the same . Lots of trout but topping out at 17 inches . We canoed and fished as far down the river as the falls . Didn't catch a lot of fish in the river but we did see a ton of moose. That upstream portion on the East seems like to much effort for the reward . The lake you want to get into lies just west of the headwater lake and is in a tee shape . You can portage to it using the hydro line and the fish there are big and plentiful
I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your videos And your humorous fun too. To me you were made for this purpose to let' all of us see the pure Beauty of our World thank you
This is a mad world filled with violence and hatred towards one another, and then…. Heres Jonny to put everything back into natural order. The cinematography Jon is superb, your eye for detail Jon is amazing, and of course your love of nature oozes through every pore in your body. Outstanding sir, truly outstanding. Thank you 🙏
Wow I love this channel, it's rare to find someone who treats the wilderness and its inhabitants with the proper humility and respect, and you really have a good way of making the wilds the main character here. Even the music is very spare, light, and ambient, and puts nature's song in the forefront. And of course as soon as I finished typing that the seaplane flew in hahahaha
I just wanted to say Thank You as I sit outside my basement apartment in the suburban jungle that I exist in for taking me on your trip ! Much Respect my Friend!
I'm pretty sure that I have watched all of your videos to date. This one is by far your best yet. Your production has evolved to a new level, well done. I can't thank you enough for taking me on your trips. I'm a month or so shy of my 78th birthday, recovering from hip replacement and remembering my 10 years or so of wilderness canoeing and camping. I emigrated from the UK to Minnesota in the mid 80's, and discovered the Boundary Waters Canoe Area soon thereafter. Great memories, but now limited by health issues to enjoying the adventures of kind and talented young people like you and Xander B. Thank you so much, Jonathan, for dedicating your time to make these videos. ❤
Loved it. The recap at the end just felt so intimate and genuine. It doesn't need to have the biggest ending or a jaw dropping climax to be a good or successful trip. The adventure is still there and the beauty you showed us will be with us forever. Appreciate your work and look forward to more of it.
Thank you Jon once again for showing me sights I’ve never seen. You give us all an insight to what this earth was created to look like. Sadly, even in those remote locations show the abuse we humans are known for.
I can only say it again: Ontario is (to mee) the most beautiful and peaceful place on earth. Thanks to you I started csnoe camping there. I will be back in July an September. And want to go more north and remote next year. I love your videos. I'm always there with you and Erin. And I thank you so much, Jon!
I grew up in the nwt and southern Yukon. And to me that's beauty. Spent time up in Tuktoyaktuk working offshore and then way up in the arctic building the north warning system and seen some amazing sights like the smoking hills in Horton river also home to a tidal bore and a distant early warning line site. Where when we landed in the early fall in a twin Otter on skis we were dropping streamers out the aircraft door to get some orientation on the snow but when we landed we were jumping snow drifts 8ft high thank god those aircraft land slow and stop on a dime, they just dumped us and took off and we had to dig out the camp that was erected in the summer months. Scariest thing I did ever.
Everyone is right on. The latest videos keep improving and is appreciated. Thanks for taking care of our environment. It is sad to see the pollution left around the wild by the thoughtless. Thanks for showing us the beauty of it all though.
Desde diciembre no veía los vídeos de este canal por falta de tiempo. Al ver este último me resulta difícil encontrar las palabras para describir la belleza insuperable de los bosques y lagos canadienses. El paisaje es inmenso, y siempre hay nuevos lugares y rincones escondidos donde uno querría regresar para volver a experimentar el mismo éxtasis. Me cuesta bastante trabajo entender tu inglés, pero aun así prefiero no poner los subtítulos para no interrumpir el gozo de contemplar las imágenes. De lo más bello que se puede ver en RUclips. Alegra saber que todavía es posible experimentar lo que sintieron los primeros exploradores del siglo diecinueve ante esa Naturaleza virgen, inmensa y solitaria…que ningún europeo había visto antes, y que era muy generosa en caza, pesca y otros recursos naturales. No se puede pedir más…y encima por la noche se puede ver la aurora boreal…
After Neil Young, Pine knob, and two days of Billy Strings in Chicago, this is exactly what I needed today. I will never be able to thank you enough... thank you ❤
I agree with you about the anti-climactic wildlife/waterfall etc on this trip but seriously ironically one of your best trips. I can’t explain it; perhaps the reason was it truly was a Lost River and it epitomized your channel and your love for the unestablished campsites. Looking at the abandoned long ago used fire pits and trails WAS the BEST. How ironic no fanfare no woodland caribou no eagle dropping a fish in your head nothing fancy but your Best Trip Yet. You know that saying “I don’t know who needed this video but here it is ..” lol it was me and you will never know how much watching that inspired me to keep putting one foot in front of the other during a rough time by experiencing something I can’t explain. Thank you and Hi to Erin.
I haven't watched the video, but will later with the family as it's early morning here. I only wanted to say up front that WE ALL AGREE you are the absolute BEST as far as content and quality in EVERYTHING that you share. We look forward to watching THIS ONE and them all. Thank you.
i've spent the last month watching your videos... i'd like to say the improvement from when you started till now is immense. photography, to editing, to just the confidence and vocabulary you display. incredible work, you've inspired me to start saving up for all the equipment i need to do my first backcountry canoe trip. i'm from southern ontario, and its awesome seeing someone catch so many fish and stay at so many gorgeous campsites. you often talk about how doing these wilderness trips is a type of "peace" for you. i would like to take this moment to tell you that these videos have been my "peace" in a sea of stress for the last month or so as i have taken the biggest risks of my life in the past 1/2 year. you've helped me a lot
wow, the native flute went very well with the video. I believe wholeheartedly that this is exactly what humanity is craving and longing for. freedom and to be one with mother earth again.
The quality, the genuine experiences captured, then creation plays her cards and gives you a light show to be remembered. So grateful you share such masterpiece journeys!
Phenomenal! The Sandhills cranes were amazing. I’ve sometimes wondered what smells are out there. Thanks for sharing another masterpiece Lost Lakes! 👏🏻👏🏻
This video came at the perfect time. I was seriously depressed today and watching this perfect emotionally healing adventure helped so much. So many beautiful birds in this environment.
I remember watching nature shows with my dad back when I was a kid and your films are better than those for sure. Thank you and I can’t wait for the next one.
once you have done a bit of canoe camping ...... going along with Jon allows you to really appreciate his film and narrative .......so peaceful and calm ....
This made my knee ache a little. I was really hoping your seagull friend would be rewarded. That 1st beaver that slapped looked like a Seal! Unreal how big that one was. Your skills at videos and stills and the wildlife footage is beyond great. Thank You for sharing it with us.
To be a part of your personal journey/insights into the Canadien wilderness is something so beneficial and enriching for all. We are grateful for your continued dedication and passion to this most unique and special RUclips offering!
Excellent stuff as always Jon. A little anecdote - I just did my first kayak trip with my new Draumer last week, on a lake in western North Carolina. Thursday afternoon forecast said "light rain", so I got back to camp by 2pm. For the next 11 hours I had a series of 6 thunderstorms roll through. Never seen anything like it, I thought it would never end. I stayed dry and happy, with the tarp, Draumer, my little camp chair and some good reading. My one man tent would have been miserable!
Both are found in Ontario; breeding range... habitat for the thrush is a bit off, but given time of year, moving through to breeding grounds is viable explanation... Really nice capture of bird song in this vid!
Watching this while having my lunch in the city in London, UK. Brings me right back to tripping with my camp, dad & brothers and friends when I was younger. Makes me really miss Canada - this is truly the best of what it offers
the amount of pride you take in making your videos is palpable after watching them for a few yrs. I can notice subtle changes in that time that tell me that your always looking to "up your game" which gives your videos so much more quality than even the best television documentaries. Even among your contemporary peers on you tube, people who have been in the game longer and yet you have "surpassed the teacher" on your way to being a video star. I guess having a face the camera sort of loves and all your shows are filmed in my backyard(again, sort of). Keep up the good work because some people see more than the beautiful vistas when they watch.
@@LostLakes really enjoy the full length videos too, even if it takes a extra sitting or two...surprised by that nice pickerel too...veery thrush soundtrack all day here too, on the Mattawa river just outside of North bay.
Well it took a little bit, but man i really enjoyed this one. So much so that i decided to dig the gear out and plan a trip. Its been a few years. Thanks buddy. Keep on truckin 🍻
After this wet hot buggy summer, I find myself liking fall and spring the most as I age. The spring and fall weather with no bugs pestering me is now ideal. Only bummer is the short fall days. Excellent production my boy!
je demeure au Québec nord de l Outaouais j adore ton genre de randonné j ai 60 ans et suis dans l impossibilité d effectuer comme toi de si belles randonnées a la suite d une crise cardiaque a 43 ans mais tu m apporte des rêves ou je sens un peu de ta liberté merci pour ces TRÈS belles photos et images ,tu possède un réel talent sur ce point, un petit commentaire... tu devrait garder plus de poisson pour manger pas besoin de filmer le déroulement juste te voir déguster de belles truites et dorés serait parfait, encore bravo mon ami je t écoute et te regarde avec avidité.
Beautiful way to live life I love all the scenery. you're truly talented and gifted. It was so cool seeing that old trappers cabin it makes me wonder what his story was and what happened to him. We need more people like you and xander in this world. Keep up the good work! ❤
This has become my favorite RUclips. This is real, wholesome entertainment. I love nature and your videos do a great job showing me your beautiful part of the world when I don't feel like doing much, or when I'm looking for inspiration.
When I was a boy my father was a butcher and we cut up some game as well in the time when you could still do that in a regualr shop at the end of the day. Anyhow some guy brought in a wolf carcass and Dad skinned it out. The wolf's head was amazing with huge muscles going over top of the skull to assist in working the jaws. I can't imagine the forces that these would develop coupled with those teeth. Quite a weapon! The jaw bone and skull are almost identical to what I saw. We later cooked the skull clean and I had it for quite a while. 'The fun things I did with my father ...'
The NFB should be paying you for these documentaries... Seriously, your work is as good, if not better than any nature docs they've produced.
So true
Then he should go get a job there.

@@phil6844 I bet you'd love to have a job one day, finally get out of the basement.
These shows keep getting better and better. It reaffirms that nature doesn't need us but we need nature.
I love this!
Absolutely 💯 ❤
Nailed it
One of my favorite channels! Sanity in a world gone mad.
When hasn't the world of humans not been "mad"? Perhaps the out of control world population (8 BILLION) adds to the madness? Yep...
💯
Humanity is insane for the most part, the further from civilization we go the closer to reality we get!
agreed
word
I get more peace from your videos than professional therapy. Sincerely, Thank you.
Amen to that lol
Double Amen to that!!
triple Amen to that !!!
Same Amen to that 🙏 🙌 ❤
☝️ This x100
Nothing like a long Lost Lakes video to completely DESTROY the Sunday scaries.10/10
What I love about this channel the most….No opinionated nonsense, no bs. Just beautiful videography and great commentary by a man at peace. So refreshing!
Your skill as a film maker just keeps getting better and better!
Agree 100 percent!😊
Yep agree 👍

"Spend more time stopping n relaxing a bit".Couldn't agree more.Was taken away again again.
Watching this in the evening - the first 10 minutes.....**sigh**...and the stress of the past week slips away. Thanks Jon.
Being Canadian makes me happy. Watching you paddle through a gorgeous part of Canada makes me happier. What an awesome trip!

Man, your opening was so great. The music, the flute, your words, the shots, oh yeah!
But Jon, what was the name of the piano solo music? Sounded like John Field but nothing quite fits. So Jon, how about giving credit to the composer???

Yayyyy! A Lost Lakes video! I'll write again after the show😉
Yes, dry bag for the tarp and on top of that make it a compression sack.

I too am assuming he conquered a " forgotten river" in Northern Ontario but hmmmm who knows.
@@deborahsimpson4968 Guess I spelled " conquered " wrong , oops 😬 my bad , props to you too lol

Truly appreciate that Tim!
Thanks again for taking us along.
thanks for taking us along on another beautiful adventure.
Great use of the classical music with the videography.
Excellent stuff as always Jon. A little anecdote - I just did my first kayak trip with my new Draumer last week, on a lake in western North Carolina. Thursday afternoon forecast said "light rain", so I got back to camp by 2pm. For the next 11 hours I had a series of 6 thunderstorms roll through. Never seen anything like it, I thought it would never end. I stayed dry and happy, with the tarp, Draumer, my little camp chair and some good reading. My one man tent would have been miserable!
I am thrilled.. I heard during your trip to very rare birds that are not common visitors to Ontario. The Hermit Thrush and the Ruby-Crowned Kinglet!
Both are found in Ontario; breeding range... habitat for the thrush is a bit off, but given time of year, moving through to breeding grounds is viable explanation...
Really nice capture of bird song in this vid!
@robbieprokop1745 they are know to migrate through Ontario however this is rare. If you have a common sighting let me know what region.
There seems to be a huge amount of dead trees, do know anything about the reason why, wildfire, beetles?
Thank you for documenting that and sharing it with us. God is an amazing creator and we must protect what he has given us. Safe travels.
Thanks, Jon. Great video.❤

That was spectacular. What a beautiful journey. The stamina and courage needed to take on all of that solo is amazing.
If a tree falls down in the forest, and there's only Jon to hear it...
