Hi Scottie, sorry for the delayed response, don't know what happened. But thank you for you comment and glad you could join us. Bet Vermont is beautiful! Take care, Paul.
Speechless, utterly speechless. The narration was spot on and there was nice balance between speaking to the camera and the focus on the scenery. It was pleasure meeting and paddling with you guys. Here's to more trips together😁
Thank you Fred 😊 It was a great trip! And the pleasure was all mine! Looking forward to us getting back together to do it again. And again thanks for the footage 👍 See you soon, Paul
Absolutely awesome video, just loved it! Thank you so much for sharing this adventure! Those colours were just beautiful and the scenery was breathtaking. Even my 12 year old was blown away!!! 😃
Came across your channel not so long ago and very glad i did. Every video watched has been great! Is a gear video for your Canoe trips something youd be willing to do in future? Id love to get into the Canoe camping after only Wild Camping so far, and a video of where to begin would be a great starting point. Thanks for the stunning videos! Jack
Thank you Jack 😁 a few have asked about a kit video, so I'm sure I'll do one at some point. In the meantime feel free to ask me any questions, if I can help, I will. All the best, Paul
Thank you for your time and effort in producing this beautiful movie of my favourite place in the whole world. Not managed a trip this year, chose the Norfolk broads, which was awesome also. Perhaps be back up there next year with canoe, newly acquired hammock and my fishing rod 😬. It’s like a drug can never get enough of it lol. Thank you again
Thanks you Anne 👍 I'm the opposite, probably first time in years I haven't been to the broads 😂 I know exactly what you mean, I can't wait to get back our there! Take care, Paul.
Wow what gr8 filming well done. Looks like you had fun. Iv only just discovered your channel through following eze. You have definitely got a new subscriber. 👍
Thank you Thomas 👍 I didn't do a lot of filming on this trip to be honest and then had to try and tie together what I had with narration. I wished I'd captured more of the social side, but it felt a little unnatural to me pointing a camera at someone I barely knew 😂 But I'm glad we didn't end up with the same video 😁 All the best, Paul
Impressed by how easily you accept the rough weather...Coming from the high desert of northern Utah, rain storms always keep me off the water....Although they are usually accompanied by lots of thunder and lightning! Very well done, and amazing camera work.
I didn't have much choice 😂 I was lucky enough to visit Utah and walk up angels landing, some beautiful scenery! Thank you for watching. All the best Paul
Another great video mate! Can definitely tell you are growing in confidence behind the camera and gaining plenty of great experience! Keep up the good work bud! Looking forward to the next adventure :)
Cheers mate, thanks for watching and commenting. Was really strange talking to the camera to start with (the amount of outtakes 😂) Aways learning. Hope all is well, Paul
Nice one Paul!! A question about your canoe. When I got my Broadland 15 I was initially pretty shocked at how much it yawed away on the first few strokes - using a J stroke. I found that I need to do a fairly exaggerated C Stroke to compensate until well underway and than it settles. I have only used it solo and with only my body load. I'm used to it now and I am basically very happy with it. Your thoughts? Pete from Australia.
Hello Pete, thanks for watching 👍 To be honest I hadn't noticed it yawning away particularly more than any other prospector canoe (I've only paddled 5). But I do pretty much always start with a C stroke (normal I think). This is probably teaching you to suck eggs, but it depends what you are used to paddling. The prospector shapes do have more rocker than a flat water boat so typically won't track as well. Most of my videos I'm sat on the stern seat, but it works for me in regards to my dog, equipment and the position of my sail rig. But obviously if I sat on the bow seat travelling ''backwards'' I'd be positioned more central and eliminate the yaw a bit, Im guessing that's what you do. Kind regards, Paul.
Thanks Paul - I do position as if travelling backwards to get myself more to the centre. I have had larger canoes in the past and even though the Silverbirch is not light by modern comparisons, my older boats were much heavier. Anyway I've pretty much adjusted and it is such a strong (and beautiful) craft. More importantly while OZ is a great country I am very envious of the places you have travelled in Scotland; stunning. Love the fact that you are so appreciative of the opportunity you have to be there. Keep it up mate. Pete
@@petermcmahon8074 I figured you probably knew what you was doing 👍 Yes I love it up here and I'm very appreciative 😁 I don't know how it's been in Oz, but with covid travelling restrictions, it's been a lot busier this year so a little harder to escape from everyone. But, still beautiful none the less. Take care, Paul
Absolutely spectacular!! Thank you so much!! Quick question. Do you use an asymmetrical tarp or diamond tarp for your hammock? Thanks again and cheers from america!
Thank you nqu. My tarp is the DD superlight its 3m x 2.9m. I usually only feed my ridgeline through the very centre tab only and attach the outer tabs to the ridge line via an elastic cord (permanantly on the tarp) to a prusik knot always left on the ridge line. (hope that makes sense) this way I can spin it into a square or diamond config. I dont know why DD decided to make their super light tarp 3m x 2.9m, perhaps weight saving. To be honest, I'd of preferred it if it were 3x3m, but its not a big deal. Hope that helps, Paul
@@WhenNaturePauls Thanks Paul. That makes total sense. Do you find the asym tarp of that size provides enough rain coverage even on those big windy lochs? Does it keep your hammock and sleep area dry? This is a great watch as we make our way through another New England winter. Take care Paul. NQU
@@notquiteultralight1701 it's big enough, you can always bring the sides in and drip loops are essential for the hammock, but it wouldn't be my first choice in the wind. If I though it was going to be really windy and exposed I would of opted for a tent. Take care, Paul

Great stuff . I love to see a happy dog 🐕
Thank you 👍
Looks so good this place, and great footage Paul well done 👍
Thank you, Glen Affric is especially beautiful in the autumn.

Lovely trip and wild camp. You have a wonderful upcoming week. Take care
Thank you very much!
Hope also having a good week.

You captured it beautifully. Glad I could come along for the ride. Scottie from Vermont US
Hi Scottie, sorry for the delayed response, don't know what happened.
But thank you for you comment and glad you could join us. Bet Vermont is beautiful!
Take care, Paul.
Nice film. I also have a canoe, a Springer Spaniel and a hammock. I’m just not sure how to keep the middle one in the latter 😂
😂 Thank you. All the cool kids do 😉.
Springers 🙄😂 can definitely relate! The net attached to my hammock is enough to keep him put.
As always, that was a lovely watch. Thank you for sharing your adventures pal👍👍
Thanks for watching! And my pleasure.
Take care, Paul
Great scenery , thanks for taking us with you on the camp. Look forward to your next adventure. Stay safe. Jack
Thank you Jack and thanks for coming along 😁
All the best, Paul
Superb adventure…nicely filmed and narrated.. all good apart from the big lick 👅 lol 😂
Thank you, it was a very enjoyable few days.
😂 In fairness the lick did clear away the rain drops 😂
