Much enjoyed! thank you for your efforts. A few equipment questions, if I may, is your canoe the swift wildfire? What do you think of it? Tippy? And what length is the double blade paddle? Now on to your temogami video...

Hi and thanks for watching, the white canoe I use is a swift Osprey 2002 model, bought 4 years ago. It is a little tippy, but when loaded down not so bad, it does take some getting used to. It tracks very well and is fast!! The double blade is 102" from tip to tip. Thanks for the questions and enjoy the Temagami video, I think Down the Tim is my favourite...so far

What an adventure bro.. I've always wanted to do the river houseboats in Temagami.. My friends did it the summer I was injured few years back. They loved this place. I can't wait to visit Temagami.. Most bear population apparently in Ontario here.

Never been on a houseboat, saw plenty though. I think there is plenty of bear, it sure is a beautiful spot. Depending the time of year it can be a pretty busy place as well.

Thanks for sharing the trip but more importantly the update on your cancer. You will be in my prayers, praying that God will bless you with healing and strength and love through your journey. Your request for ideas for future videos: Since you have shared your cancer story why not continue? I know I would be interested in what your journey looks like and that way we get updates on how you are doing. May God bless you and keep you and give you peace!! 🙏

@cancerwontrunmylife
@cancerwontrunmylife Ай бұрын
Early May or fall is the best, if your not anxious then your really excited either I think. I've learned to control that anxiety and use it and just trust your skills, people are much more capable than they think. Algonquin is a good spot to get that confidence up, well mapped, marked portages, but don't get me wrong in the interior it's very rugged. Cheers

Regarding your health, if you find you’d like to have tripping companions, I have a male friend I trip with often and you would be most welcome to join us. We take our time, don’t have anything to prove with really challenging trips, although we do like a certain amount of challenge…. My buddy is early 60’s, I’m close to 70, but we are both pretty young at heart. We usually do a fall trip in Algonquin (northeast part), and a long trip in August. This year we’re in Woodland Caribou for August. So if you feel you’d be more comfortable at any point in your health journey tripping with buddies, just holler!
