- After some time away from the woods dealing with some life challenges, I set off on a much needed 2 night 3 day solo trip. This one was incredible as it was my first time solo paddling. I faced some heavy rain, some sunshine, good eats and many moments of relaxation. Enjoy!
I’ve linked a “Buy Me a Coffee” below for anyone who would like to make a contribution that helps me cover the costs of making these videos:

For the record, it was 24 bottles of water and a 75lb fiberglass canoe which is easier than saying no to a pregnant woman…😜
Those 24 water bottles saved my fetus self from infectious parasites, and instead provided me with dashing good looks and drive for adventure!
looking forward to seeing you rip wheelies in your canoe
hahahaha I’ve been trying to land the first ever canoe backflip
@@benbeauchamp16 love the video and the sentiment at the end. To bad with all that bottled water your mom drank your brain still didn't come out quite right :p
Stumbled on your channel after watching Lost Lakes video. Im happy I did. I went to school with your dad and uncle by the way. Cheers!
What a meal with the rice and chicken. It looked so amazing and so did the island campsite. Making memories one trip at a time❤️
Tears were shed, this was so beautifully done Ben - You should be proud of yourself!
Thank you so much, love you Elliot❤️
Thanks for another dandy video......Take care, Bluefin.
Thank you for another great video. A beautiful tribute to your parents and dedication to two incredible men.
I’m so happy you liked it❤️❤️❤️
Here from Xander's recent live 🏕 Great video man look forwards to more content! 🙌🏼
Thank you so much! Xander is awesome, cheers man
I think I say this every time you put out a new video but this is your best one yet. "appreciate what you got" choked me up a little bit and a really cool full circle moment on that island. Keep the videos coming xx
Lucas brother I love it! I don’t think I’ve ever had a conversation with you that wasn’t insightful and inspiring. Thank you man :)
A totally legend. Your passion is so clear. Lucky to know you!
Aw thank you Maddi that means a lot, I’m lucky to know you too❤️❤️
So glad I found you're channel! Such great content mate!
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Beautiful story :)
Very enjoyable video! And showing those fishes underwater.. Cool idea :)
Thanks Vlad! Much appreciated :)
Hi Ben! Another great video. I was wondering if you could talk a bit about how you deal with loneliness when out on your extended trips? I'm a fairly experienced weekend backpacker and have done plenty of 1-3 night treks on my own, but I have my first real thru-hike coming up where I'll likely see very few people for up to two weeks! I'll be downloading plenty of audiobooks/music to keep me entertained, but just wanted to know if you had any tips for staying sane when it's just you and the woods.
Great video. You are a joy to watch.
this was awesome, some beautiful shots in this
Ehh thank you Lawson!! Missing our time as defence partners back in the day
Loved watching this!
Thank you man! I must say your music pairs so well with the camping vibes
I"m a new subscriber because I just watched the video of you and Tosh Self-Propelled on the Spanish River. It was the next best thing to being there myself!
Aw thank you so much and welcome to the channel. I also filmed that entire trip however I’ve got a few more videos to post before my Spanish vid. But soon enough you’ll see all new angles of Tosh’s pretty face on my channel LOL
This vid is so wholesome, love the asmr vibes 😂 i would love to go camp somewhere like this but here in Brasil all we have is cows and grass 🐄😂
At first I was gonna say Brasil must have some beautiful areas to camp, and then I realized there’s no way I’d be taking my kayak out on a river with 12 meter long anacondas! Maybe you should take a trip to Canada lol
@@benbeauchamp16 lol thats true, not to bring up the rivers crocodiles and piranhas and our famous amazonian candiru, or mostly know as peepe fish 🍌🐟😂😂, but yeah maybe a trip to canado would be great 😂👍
Really well edited and great paddling away shots! Dinner on night 2 looked delicious
Thanks a lot! Everything tastes better in the woods
Great video Ben….the loons…the snake…the underwater fish and snapping turtle….so cool! The scenery is to die for. Love it! Happy trails…..Oh and get dad to post his recipe!
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you enjoyed the video but I don't think my dad will ever deal out his secrets😉 lol
Tell him he can send it to Laurie via message…..I’ll not take no for an answer!!! Lol
@@BooBoo2578 Hahaha with any luck at all you might get the friends and family discount
I really enjoyed your trip! I can see your camera/editing skills improving immensely. I chuckled near the end where you have a great shot of you heading home in the kayak from an elevated POV,,,thinking...he has to go back and get that camera. lol! Loved the underwater shots too, catching the fish and then the snapping turtle! looking like underwater tank. Well done!
Hahaha finally a comment about the trek I faced in that last shot, definitely a burden but worth it in my eyes. Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed!
I enjoyed every second! Keep the videos coming!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed, more vids coming very soon :)
Definitely cried at the end
❤️
Good stuff
Thank you man, means a lot coming from a fellow adventurer
Chào bạn một nơi cắm trại chèo thuyền thư giãn thoải mái tinh thần rất tiệc vời lắm bạn ơi phong cảnh đẹp quá bạn ơi mình rất thích video của bạn. Chúc bạn nhiều sức khỏe và thành công trong công việc nhé
Bạn của tôi, cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều. Tôi rất vui vì bạn thích video của tôi. Tôi rất vinh dự khi thấy kênh của mình đã đến được với mọi người trên khắp thế giới. Chúc bạn may mắn với video của mình!
Very nice my friend 🤠
Thanks Herb! Appreciate it :)
My husband and I are excited to see there’s another pelican kayaker who uses it to portage! Ours are 10 foot deals from Costco. lol. But we’ve got the packing down to an art and he even build homes which we use to portage the boats! Keep in keeping it really! We appreciate what we’ve got, simple as it is! 🏕️
So cool! That is actually my dad’s kayak that he so generously lent me for that trip. I’ve since got myself a more traditional tripping canoe as it’s just a better fit for the things I do. I will say though I absolutely love the Pelican kayak for shorter trips and there’s no beating it in terms of durability for the price. Thanks for watching!
Excellent 😘😘😘
Thank you!
I want to try the sticky chicken
I’ll definitely whip some up for you sometime lol
Hey Ben, new subscriber here.
Steve! This is awesome! The next video that I’ll be posting captures a week in Killarney with my brother. We made the trek up to your campsite on the north end of Threenarrows. If it weren’t for those trips we did back then I don’t think I’d be doing this stuff now. Thanks for subscribing , Coach Steve!
I'm trying to get over that thing on your lip.
I can’t even be upset by this
@@benbeauchamp16 You have a loyal fan my man. Love what you do!
😊
where is this and should you have some kind of protection
It’s in Ontario just south of Algonquin Park. For protection I always bring a knife, bear spray and a pair of nunchucks in case I come across forest ninjas
Looks like QEW wildlands but when you named the lakes and then edit it out I'm done.
I’m watching a real video… Pike fishing on Booth Lake in Algonquin. Lol
LMAO my bad, at the time I had thought I found a secret gem but now I’m not trying to be a gatekeeper. It’s the Frost Centre part of HHWT. That was “Dan Lake” and it’s actually quite a popular spot… I must’ve thought I was being slick or something
@@benbeauchamp16 Lol. I wasn’t trying to be a dick but I just don’t understand why people don’t say where they are. I get it if it’s a crown land spot and it’s clean and you want to keep it that way. I get it. But this was bookable sites that other people could book if they like what they see. It would probably help you get more likes and subscribers. I have a cottage 2min to the Frost Centre and I had no idea where you were. How cool is that.?
@@TURBOINTEGRATYPER Oh no way that’s sick!! Don’t worry I didn’t think you were being a dick at all. I can’t help but laugh at myself this feels like such an old video even though it was just a year ago.
You definitely have to check out the Frost Centre especially if you’re that close… super pretty area. Cheers!
