Some friends and I spent 9 days on the Au Sable. We never lacked for a place to camp. It was the most awesome trip I've ever done.

Started out good , then it went all downhill from there LOL Should have done more of this myself instead wasting my life working.

It really is! I'm looking forward to doing it again sometime, this time with everything we learned from the first time. Haha

cool trip. Those were muskrats you were seeing. There are otters on the river here, but they are pretty rare. I see them more in the impoundments.

Just did this trip solo on a kayak at the beginning of June. Also a video on my channel. Very nice video!

I have wanted to do this since I was a kid. I am too old and decrepit now, so thanks for taking me along on your journey.

Maybe try to find someone that you can go with who is willing to take on the hard stuff. My brother who I went with has had heart issues, so I knew going into it I may have had to take on some of the harder stuff. Just a thought. Thanks for watching!

Uhhh, 3:52 is that a silver heron? an endangered species? don't laugh I'm not a bird expert. My scout troupe(1978 Troup 2 East Lansing, Mich.) canoed that in the winter, the snow was so high one could not egress a river bank. The dude in front had to watch for ice sheets that could wedge between the river bottom and canoe thus flipping you! Two canoes were flipped this way. Thank you for showing this.

Wow, doing that in the winter would be amazing! Hmmmm … I’m honestly not sure, I thought it was a blue heron. 🤷🏻♂️
@jakewilson7112 3 ай бұрын
great blue heron
@howlinhog 2 ай бұрын
Definitely a Great Blue Heron. It's a little confusing to some when they see what is thought to be a Great White (primarily Florida) it is actually a juvenile Great Blue.

What canoe is that?
@upnorthadventuring 4 ай бұрын
It's a Meyers Sportspal S-15. It's heavy, which made it not ideal for portaging, but it's amazing for going through the waves that were in the backwaters and the channel. Virtually untippable.
