4-day 120 km Canoe Trip to Noganosh Lake

This is a trip I did in the late summer of 2017. Noganosh Lake is located about 50 km NNE of Parry Sound in Ontario and long been a destination for sportsmen of the area. In this video we base camp on Noganosh Lake and then explore this wonderful (mostly unsettled) area each day.

That was a beautiful trip. Except for a 15 minute downpour at the north end of our daytrip towards Hwy 522, the weather was great. The lakes a gems.

One of the most informative videos that I have seen on Noganosh. Well done Henri. That camping spot looked super. Was the fishing as bad as it looked? Great exploring too. It must have been the portage to Kelsey that you gave up on when you visited John Lake. I would have enjoyed seeing some more of the camp sites. The cliffs looked great too. Were any of them good for jumping? Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much for your generous comments. I regretted that so much of this was stills and I now have better equipment and hope to have a very active 2024! My friend only tried in the morning for fish. He's pretty good at it and came up empty. However, given the portages and cached boats on these lakes they've been a destination for for sportsmen for a long time. Hard to say with the cliffs as we did not go ashore. I guess one would check the depth below them carefully, but as you know, there is often a drop off below them. Frank was working the maps on this portage hunt, but part of me thinks we were in Mud Bay, but I think we did that on Day 1. So, I'm guessing (7 years ago ...) that he wanted to nip down through Deep, Finney and Crow. That probably would have been a slog though. Thank you for watching.

@@donthomas8724 We had no problems, but I've been told that more recently folks aren't to go that way and might be fined. I dunno.
