Weather wool makes a great product. A note: minus 33 makes a merino base layer in coyote..

Looking good. Ready for part 2!

I'd try it

Awesome video. Brings back so many memories. I'll be rewatching this one again.

Hi P I just wanted to say I love your videos and the positive attitude you guys have. That muddy portage was cracking me up as we did something very similar a couple weeks ago between Moose and Mountain. I'm doing this same route in 2027 and appreciate every video you have made as it helps me fill in the gaps from my own experiences. Can't wait to see part 2.

You're still a beast! I love the aloha you are giving to you team mate!

Great video! Loved seeing all the familiar places (and a few new spots). Love the humor and energy it took to record all this footage while doing long mileage days. Eager for part 2.

Voyager here, enjoying your 1st installment of the Voyageurs Challenge. Looks like I made the right decision cutting across the pyramid to avoid the wind on Lac La Croix. I also lucked out on the mudhole on the Monument Portage. A couple of guys warned me it was waist deep. I hugged the right side, stepping right at the base of the tag alders it was only ankle deep. I enjoyed the video of the Greer Lake shortcut. I was going to try it in 2023 but that 1st little pond was dried up. Looking forward to part2.

HECK YA DUDE!!! KILLER VIDEO!

❤

DUDE!!! We stayed at Fort Charlotte on the Pidgin together! I can't believe I just stumbled across you! SO COOL! Awesome video! I'm subscribing for sure!

I've Never used those as tinder before. Little bit of chaos, lotta bit of memories. Congratz johnny boy on the great outdoor adventure and proud to see ayden as a sternsmen. Look like yall had a blast.

Awesome!

Have a Swedish army surplus wool jacket that's 77 years old and never let me down been wet drys fast weights 3kg though 😂

Beautiful

Nice video and great shots.

I am so glad to have found your channel! I'm going to try to make turkey wing tea for my allergies tp see how it works fir me! Many thanks...

Appreciate your work here. Very few brain tanning videos show the extraction of the brain and actual use of the brain for brain tanning. Thank you, now I feel more comfortable using deer brains in my next tanning project. Also, your philosophical approach is helpful here. Thank you again!

Great information but I thought you were going to be COOKING them to ?;

I appreciate the medical and scientific information that you include. What's your knowledge on white chicken of the woods?

I appreciate the scientific and medicinal information that you include with your foraging expertise.

Nice.

That's a Grayjay. Lots of personality for a big bird.

Good job, dad

not very tasty, after you ate few times, you know it is not really good mushroom for cooking

This is great!

This is exactly what I did this morning, went hunting for Morels and found a bunch of pheasant back instead. And I got about 20# of them, so I get to share them with my family and neighbors. 😊

So much more vibrant than Alaska

I really like these! But you gotta get them young, or else they're a bit tough for my liking. I will say that they impart a superb flavor to any broth - a great ingredient to throw in for extra umami flavor.

"better than morels" is a bit of a reach. The general consensus is that pheasants back/dryads saddle is a consolation prize when you cant find anything else tasty to bring home

“S” pores!

I think you forgot about the "and cook" part of your video!

They taste nasty 🤢 but contain plenty of protein. ....I'll pass.

So, just to make sure I understand which is which, did the “extra” salt make it harder or softer?

"Only good days!" Great saying! I enjoyed the report - repairing the trailer, the weather while on the water, navigating, running the expensive canoe over the rocks, the prayer before you left and then seeing the voyageur canoe...cool times!

One of my home rivers there. Fish those rivers with a Ned rig.

Hmmm... future trip announcement coming?

Thank you so much for showing up at the seminar and allowing me to get to see it from your perspective. It was great meeting you and hopefully we can share stories of more of our journeys in the future.

Wow, what an epic trip! Great video series. Top notch editing. I hope you’re able to get out for some adventures this spring and summer!

Excellent Current River videos! Great history, wildlife, info, and tour of the cool sites to see along the journey. Skilled canoeist, nice gear, just beautiful Ozarks. People please stop littering and be respectful and responsible! 1️⃣❤

Looks like a great trip P! I am planning a 3-5 day trip down the current. How did you get your truck from the put in to the take out?

I made an apron from a contractor garbage bag and some baling string. It's lasted three years so far. I did my first "real" brain tanned deer hide this year. Turned out good so far. I haven't smoked it yet but it seemed to work pretty good. Mine had ticks too and his neck was all tore up. Looked like tick bites or bot flies or something. Got to say with all the crazy sh!t with deer these days I might go with pig brains next time. I've had good luck with soy lectithan , soap , and veg oil. I've heard the smoking is what actually tans it and the fat liquor is a lube that keeps the fibers seperated while softening. I wanted to try it the origanal way at least once.

Good series and family memories for life. The skeeters sure liked Squeeks lol

I work at Hibbing Taconite company. The watershed marker is on this property I’ve visited it.

Bee Bluff is one of my favorite spots. Loved your Current River journey vids!

I know from experience that deer fat leaves a film in your mouth. Does deer tallow?

How did you go to the bathroom (#2) while racing ? Lol

Did you need the snow shoes? Would you bring them again?

These are very tasty!

Pheasant backs are very tasty!
