Hi everyone! We hope you enjoy the start to our new Algonquin trip series! Day two’s campsite stay was inspired by Park Ranger Jason Lorbetskie’s great blog post about it over on Ontario Parks’ website, and we’re also looking forward to sharing our favourite lake in the entire park coming up really soon in day three of the trip, which we’ve been enjoying for years but never captured on film until more recently in this series. Btw, for those who are looking for the 4K version of the video, it should be finished encoding on RUclips’s end any moment now, though the 1080p version’s good to go now if you’d like to enjoy that. As always, thanks so much for watching, as well as all your comments, likes, shares, and if you haven’t already, subscribing to help support our channel - we really appreciate it, and we look forward to sharing day 3 of the trip soon! -Chris, Julia & Cedar :)
Well done Chris, probably one your best ones. Hope the family is doing well. Cheers, Scott
@@DrenalinAdventures Thanks so much Scott! Hope all's well with you and your family too :)
Hi,
I loved the intro and song on this one. You girls always make me want to camp. Thanks for sharing your peaceful adventures. Hope Cedar is doing well.
Jacky
from COVID lockdown here in Australia 2020 I would love to visit and escape into your wilderness. One question what was it you ate with the marshmallow?
Brace yourself. the Joe Robinet subs are coming!
Hook up with Matt Posa if he's open to it. srsly. He's local.
@@splintercat1 Matthew Posa, Chris Prouse, Nattie Up North, Joe Robinet, and TA Outdoors. My favorite channels that'll keep you entertained on the outdoors for a LONG time. :)
Style Points - I believe Matt Posa is Mich UP
Raises hand, I'm one of those. Great video, keep up the good work.
Your videos are better than any meditation app. Edits off the hook, cinematography beyond compare, and content that is pure bliss. THANK YOU for sharing your life with us.
Aww! Thanks so much Michael! :)
Ok,so this is the fourth time I've watched this groups of videos, and I still live it 💙 This was the first video of yours I came across, and I fell under the spell of how much you love Algonquin! I hope you're able to share another canoe trip with Julia soon, love the dynamic you guys have!
Awesome! Thank you. You have no idea how good your videos are for my soul.
Aww! Thanks Don! Glad to hear you're enjoying them :)
You know you are addicted to coffee when you have to bring your french press with you to Algonquin, lol. Thumbs up!
Joe Robinet directed me your way! I love it! Great job you guys! :-D
coolcanoechic same here , I’ve been watching a Joe and Doug for some years now but like to explore more , this was a great look at Algonquin through different eyes . Great stuff ladies btw
Same👍 Thx Joe! Loved the format just didn’t last long enough, no cooking for example👌
I grew up in that park and the surrounding areas. I live in BC now, and while it is beautiful here, it is definitely different. There is something about the places that you grow up in, that calls to you. Thank you for bringing on a certain kind of homesickness... it isnt a bad thing.
Glad to hear - so true :)
That encounter with the exceedingly rare Algonquin Dire Wolf woke me up. :) Amazing footage and editing. You set the bar high and raise it each time.
Thanks so much Mike! :)
Watching this video reduced MY stress level. Thanks!
Glad to hear Tim! Thanks for watching :)
Your music is beautiful. I cannot but help thinking that you two are going to make AWESOME parents. When I watch your videos here, I am always on the verge of tears. Good tears. Randy
Wow, you girls never cease to amaze me with your high quality videos. Looking forward to seeing the whole series. Thanks for doing what you do!
Thanks so much Jim! :)
Found you from Joe Robinet. Great adventure looking forward to seeing more!!!👍🏾
I can stare at the frame for hours where Julia rows .. it’s like meditating.. sound of water and perfectly synchronised rowing!
Glad to hear - thanks for watching Shraddha! :)
I love your videos so much! Thanks for bringing us deep into the beauty of the park and we don't have to do a single portage.
Thanks so much Cara! :)
These are some of the most beautiful and inspiring adventure films on RUclips. A really wonderful resource for a housebound British paddler during lock-down. Thank you so much for posting these delightful films.
This is film quality. Wow!
Rain on a hot muggy day is wonderful while paddling. 👍🇨🇦
Although I realize that these videos were shot a few years ago, the quality continues to get better and better. Very impressive ladies.
Thank you for sharing with us.
That first portage out of Smoke Lake is an epic climb!
I have arrived and subbed. Hard core Joe Robinet Fan here. Your videography and editing is amazing. The rest of us should arrive shortly.
A good start to the day to watch your happy camping trip. Set the mood for the day! :) Beautiful scenery, filmed and edited in top class as always. Absolutely a joy to watch! Noone can enjoy coffee and a marshmallow cookie as Juia! LOL Thanx for sharing, you guys are my favorite couple out and about!
Thanks so much Elisabeth! :)
Carl sneaking up behind you guys was hilarious
OMG that dog. I can watch a horror movie and not flinch but that dog made me jump lol
Yep spilt my coffee everwhere
Haha, yeah, I felt like telling the dog "Hey, she's pregnant!" :)
Oh no! :)
@@ChrisProuse I assume someone owned the dog. Or do you have feral packs of Fox terriors roaming Algonquin😂😂
13:25 is the best part haha "that was unexpected" 😁
I feel so blessed living in such a beautiful country. Thanks for showing the world!
Thanks so much for inspirational video, beautiful and so peaceful !!!!
Loved it! When I worked as an out-tripper in the park, jessus 43 years ago!?, I did the Smoke Lake route several times. And I know the camp site. In those days, I would read from Lord of the Rings at night to my charges and that campsite seemed to fit the mood as enchanted forest. Can I guess you will finish by going down Head Creek to Lake of Two Rivers? That last day along the creek was always the best part of the run.
Thanks Stefan! Sounds like a wonderful route - we took a different one, though we’ll have to check out yours someday. That would be a fantastic place to read Lord of the Rings. I enjoyed Adam Shoalts’ book Alone Against the North along the same route years ago, about bear encounters / thunderstorms with lightning cracking not far outside our tent - I could barely put the book down that night :)
@@ChrisProuse Well I know I will love to watch whatever route you take. I remember a few thunderstorms like that. Lightening striking the lake just yards away. Scary but exciting! And who doesn't have a good bear story LOL
My heart makes a little jump whenever i see you posted a new video. Love you guys!
I must say, the capture is flawless and the editing is spot-on. Love it! The nature there in Canada is so similiar to Sweden. Feel right at home! Really enjoyed your video, and thanks for taking us along the journey. Thumbs up from Sweden
Thanks so much Magnus! Glad to hear - hope all's well with you in Sweden! :)
Julia is a MACHINE! Great story
Thanks William! I agree - always impressed by her strength out there :)
Thank you so much for your adventure through these beautiful videos! Because of this, I’m now planning a camping trip to Algonquin myself. =) What camera equipment/ tripod do you use?
Beautiful video - I had to watch it twice!!
Thanks so much Linda! :)
In the Webster under; EPIC.
Well done, I thoroughly enjoyed this!
Thanks Nathan! :)
Chris another fantastic video. Great edits and great music as always. Good stuff!
Thank you! :)
Joe says your ok. That's good enough for me...I'm looking forward to your channel.
Love your videos and Algonquin Park! My first trip there was in 1965. Our family camped at Kearney Lake. I have the same 15 ft. canvass/cedar canoe made by Langford in about 1961 that I paddled as a kid!. It weighs quite a lot and I want to lift it as smoothly as you do! Prospector hull with keel. Woodwork is exquisite with cedar, cherry and others.
Thank you for the fine video to watch while I quarantine. I am so going out with my son asap..
I haven't been in a canoe in forty+ years. This old grandma felt as if I was right there with you... enjoying the quiet serenity of your trip. Thank you so much for sharing your adventure! I found you via You Tube suggestions. Look forward to checking out your channel further!
Hello Chris and Julia. Thank you for sharing another great video. All the best to your family.
Thanks so much! :)
Love You Both. Always a Peaceful Video.Love all Your Adventures.❤️❤️
Good, amaizing, famtastic video.
God bless grils.
Thanks so much Alberto! :)
Great trip. Thanks for taking me along. Love the food you brought. Glad I didn't see dehydrated meals. All looked very cool.
Nice canoe! No scratches. I do so enjoy watching your vidoes/youtube. Be well and safe travels.
Very awesome ! Long time “enjoyer” of your outings ! First time commenting. Just fabulous. Nothing but respect to you. As a canoe camper , your videos are very inspirational for sure ! Can’t wait for spring! Cheers!
Thanks so much! :)
13:27 OMG that was hilarious
FROM A SCOTSMAN NICE TO SEE THE ,BIG, COUNTRY IS STILL IMPRESSIVE .
Hiya!! Came over from Joe Robinet. Awesome girl go get it!!
Wow look how clean and scrape free the bottom of that canoe is.....sccccrrrraaappe! I lol'd. Great vid!
Thanks Erich! Haha, omg - my heart sank when that happened, lol :)
Awesome video....Glad to see your back missed ya’s...🔥⛺️🙂😋
Thanks Tommy! Missed you too! :)
Very nice hiking, overnight camping trip. the brownie, peanut butter, & toasted marshmallow looked rewarding. Love the channel
I just watched this series again. Nancy and I did a lot of trips to Algonquin, but our trip along this route was one of our best! Thanks for the memories, Chris!
Daaaaamn! That intro!
Haha, thanks Laura! :)
Clicked play while on my PC, started to clean my glasses...heard the fantastic music, fumbled for the space bar to pause, wasn't taking the chance I might miss something great. Soon as glasses back on, click play again. From seeing past vids, ya know it's gonna be GOOD. :-) But this one really raised the bar.
Ken Arnou Thanks Ken! :)
What a beautiful park!
You are mot putting these videos out enough 😄 watched your videos so many times through my ironman and camping journey... I need new series 😩
Thank you for all the work you put into making your videos and all the extra effort required.. carrying cameras, tripods and batteries etc. and taking the time to stop and film we really appreciate that.
Aww! Thanks so much Glen! :)
What a magical trip!!
You ladies rock!!
The video was amazing...
Keep enjoying the great outdoors
Cheers from Philadelphia
Awesome! 👍

IT'S FUNNY EVERYTIME I HEAR A LOON ON YOUR VIDEOS I THINK OF ON A GOLDEN POND THE MOVIE ! LOL ! MISS YOUR VIDEOS & JOURNEYS !

Holy cow! What an amazing trip, camera work and EDIT! I'm taking note. Awesome stuff!
Your videos are so inspiring! Top notch video editing skills!
Smores have never been the same since I switched to your recipe,lol. Beautiful video.
Haha, glad to hear Mary! Thanks for watching :)
Your editing blows me away every video and your passion for the whole experience seeps out of every frame. Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks so much Adam! Words can't describe how much I love that place, but I always hope the images do :)
The production quality, cinematics, and post production are of the highest caliber. Love watching your videos and seeing where you've taken your channel over the years. Keep exploring!
Thanks so much Chris! :)
Beautiful Wilderness & Awesome video loved your cinematography 👌thanks for sharing.
That was epic! Thank you so much for sharing! Btw that pizza looked amazing...epic x2
Thanks so much SM! :)
Julia - reluctantly epic lol. Proceeds to crush devil's staircase. That's quite an awesome site, glad you referenced Lorbetskie's post (I'm hoping to find it as well on that lake). Great to see your videos again, high quality as always! Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks so much! She's a trooper :)
Beautiful and relaxing video. Your cinematography keeps getting better and better! And congratulations to Julia! I hope to do this trip or similar this fall so will keep watching...
I saw you with Joe Robinet! The videos you make are just gold!! You should have many million subs! I wish you the best and take care of yourself :)
Once again, ladies: thank you!
I just started a new job - so I won't have any vacation time this summer, and have been wracking my brain over a nice spot to camp that could be accessed in a couple of days. For some reason Big Porcupine Lake and its environs never occurred to me - probably because of the bustle up around Canoe and Tea lakes. This looks absolutely lovely, though; I may have to give the area a visit!
I had to chuckle at your thoughts on how Swift would view your treatment of their canoes. I must admit that I cringe a little every time you two "nose in" bow-first on a beach or something (most commercially-built canoes have reinforced "skid strips," but it's still a good way to shorten a canoe's life). However, you have good paddling (and, especially, good lifting and dropping) techniques. I suspect they wish all customers treated their boats the way you do.
I love the Senery is Awesome
Just watching your videos is very calming and relaxing. Thank you two so much for sharing. I love this stuff! Sincerely, Randy
Love the video and love Algonquin Park
Dang that dog bout made me jump out of bed!
Haha, yeah, completely caught us off guard :)
Thank you SO much,, I really ,really needed a dose of the serenity that only you two (and Carl) can dish out,, right on the money !! Thanks again !
Glad to hear Dustin! Thanks for watching and hope you're having a great weekend! :)
Hey Chris, I love watching the progression of your videos. I really like how you took the time to let the silence in.
Thanks Colin! Glad to hear - the sound of the wind through the pine needles takes me back every time :)
Great show!
Thanks Gerry! :)
You ladies put a smile on my face.
So glad to hear - thanks for watching! :)
Awesome video, enjoyed it . I was in Welcome, Harry & Rence in May for a 5 day fishing trip. We accessed through Rock Lake.
Thanks Barb! That's a wonderful area - great memories on the Welcome Lake beach campsites :)
Great start to another awesome trip! I really enjoyed this part of the park when Shaela and I went through. Although we paddled right past this campsite without realizing how awesome it was! Looking forward to the rest and seeing what your favorite lake is!
Thanks so much Ian! Any paddling plans this year?
Your vids are such a joy to watch. So professionally edited! That was a beast of a portage and I think I noted a Road Runner sound effect in that chime where you introduced Carl :-)
Oh, and congratulations!
Thanks so much Steve! Glad to hear :)
High Chris, it is a pleasure to watch your excursions, because you show the feeling for the right picture always. Kindly Fiete
Aww! Thanks so much Fiete! :)
All I can say is NICE !!! On so many levels. Thanks for another great watch, Cliff
Thanks so much Clifford! :)
Best intros!!!
Thanks Aaronime! :)
Missed you two! Glad u r back 👍

That dog was a good jumpscare lol. I'm thinking of doing this route next summer. Hope you guys crushed the Meanest Link and are doing well!
What a beautiful, perfect campsite and a wonderful canoe trip!
Thanks Marjie! :)
I'm only 3 minutes in, and it is already the most beautifully shot video I've seen on RUclips. Incredible work!
Aww! Thanks so much Willa! :)
More joe robinet subs incoming
This gave me a small fix for the outdoors as I am DYING to get out on another trip. Hoping for a short outing next weekend!! Amazing filming and editing as always Chris! Eagerly awaiting the next part! Cheers :)
Thanks Alexis! I'm not sure if you caught my last reply, but if you're interested, I'd be up for exchanging featured channel spots on our channels - just let me know. Cheers :)
@@ChrisProuse Absolutely! I am honoured you'd like to do so! I actually didn't even know that was a thing but I just found it on my channel. So I'll be sure to add yours! Thank you!! And I didn't catch that on your last reply lol, forgive my lack of observation Haha.
@@careenaalexis Awesome! No worries - just added you to our channel! Thanks Alexis and keep up the great work!! 👍 :)
Great catch ....Carl look'n for friends. Hope family life is treating you well. Side by Side=nice!
Thank you! Hope all's well with you too :)
One more coming for the Joe Joe channel. You did amazing work on his last video and love the editing!
I absolutely love you ladies! You are two bad a$$ed mamas! Your son couldn't ask for better. That one portage was insane! I'd canoe with you guys anywhere. Too bad we are across the countries from each other. Thanks you for sharing this. Hope you can take us along more adventures soon.
Thanks so much Sinfonian! :)
