[@Karm007]

Who else came here after Joe’s recent Ghost Range trip. She is great 👍

[@safee9567]

Hahahaaaa... i did and i can't believe that she doesn't have many viewers because she's great. 👍👍👍

[@chloeskye1057]

Me to camera work quality is gorgeous!

[@Creative-Chaos]

I am here because of Joe's trip!

[@chucktrumble9605]

I can after the ghost mountain trip with joe

[@tyclairep3744]

I'm so glad that they did that collab because Chris and Julia are now my favorite. It makes me want to get back into videography!

[@MySelfReliance]

Great timing, this is the perfect way to kick off the season.

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks Shawn! Hope all’s well with you and the fam :)

[@JBELE051]

My Self Reliance this is last fall! I was there the week after and very little leaves were out . Still what à great way to get us pumped for this seasons trips :)

[@JBELE051]

Omg, I'm just coming here everyday to check for day 2! Can't wait

[@ChrisProuse]

Hi everyone! Hope you enjoy the start to our new Algonquin Park canoe camping series! Thought I’d go back to my DSLR filmmaking roots, and had a blast filming most of the intro sequence in manual focus with the ‘ol nifty-fifty lens :) This new series was filmed with helpful support from Ontario Parks, in anticipation of helping to kick off the start to this season, and the park’s 125th year of operation! Please note, you can enjoy the adventure in up to its full 4K through Google’s Chrome browser. Btw, I’ll also be posting regular 360° videos again of select moments and places from each day of the trip, so stay tuned for those coming up soon. Thanks for watching, and we’d love to know what routes and canoe trips you’re planning for this season!

[@debbiestaneland231]

Have a great summer Chris and I hope you and Julia enjoy it! Thanks for sharing your wonderful time in the Park. I'm too old to go camping now haha (57) but love watching your videos. When I was little we'd drive from Ottawa through the Park to Huntsville area where we had a cottage. So, I've got fond memories of the "tickle tummies" of the roads there and seeing the occasional moose on our trips. Thank you so much for your wonderful videos. They are inspiring.

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Debbie! Glad to hear - it's a special place :)

[@elisabethe8055]

So nice to see you out and about again with your canoes! Love your filmmaking, it really bring me along on your trip! Spring is here, Chris and Julia are out with the canoes!

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Hi Chris love the videos. Do you have a video on what camera gear you use ? Loving the quality of the shots and I am looking into upgrading my camera gear for my channel :)

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks Elisabeth! :)

[@josephallen19]

Algonquin Calling!

[@ChrisProuse]

Haha! Stoked to see your upcoming epic canoe trip Joe! :)

[@chloeskye1057]

You three should do a canoe trip sometime, just remember Joe's love language with his friends involves a lot of teasing banter.

[@jitupangogoi5019]

🙏

[@Zbcapp]

Amazing just amazing.. who’s here thanks to joe robinet ? 👍👍👍👍👍

[@lory2622]

Damn... Robinet’s opening sequence sure does showcase your abilities. Lovin’ the Timmies.

[@Sloyfa]

What WAS that opening...?! A commercial? A movie? Suddenly I want to buy a Honda, a coffee, some outdoor gear, and go for a road trip... but not until I rewind the into and watch it again. 😍💙 SO glad your videos are back, and the moments on the water at 6:32 and on as it becomes dark remind me how your videos transport me like nothing else on KZbin. Welcome back, and off to a wonderful start! ❤️

[@ChrisProuse]

Aww! Thanks so much Sloyfa! I love hearing when people say they feel like they're almost there themselves :)

[@Gasdrinker]

Friggin fabulous. It was actually redinkulous

[@ChrisOverholster]

So glad we're back to new video season again. The production value of your releases is off the charts!

[@redhauscreator146]

That big calm water brings back good memories. Beautiful place.

[@kevincolton5114]

Amazing scenery, cinematography, and lack of unnecessary noise! Thank you for sharing...

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks Kevin! So glad to hear - I spend a lot of time levelling audio :)

[@ed_doadt]

Hi guys! I LOVE this one - for a ton of reasons! The cinematography is amazing. The reflective quality of the water that evening was incredible! Of course there's the fact that it features my two favourite canoe campers - hiccups and all! Thanks and looking forward to the next episode!

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Ed! Glad to hear - it's lovely to be editing canoe shots again, and thinking about Algonquin routes through the park :)

[@theartofphotography]

Good lord - this is one of your best videos to date… the filming, the editing… the silence even! So well done - I'm so inspired!!!! I have to pick my jaw off the floor and finish the last 5 min…

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks, Ted!! :)

[@sookie1695]

When I watch your videos, both of you seem to calm the storm of everyday life. Thanks for taking away the sadness and disappointment I see in the hurry of day to day chaos. You put a smile on all your subscribers with each video you make. Be safe.

[@ChrisProuse]

Glad to hear Sookie! That means a lot to us :)

[@GordonSauve]

This video is a tonic for anything that ails! What a skillful talent you have Chris. Can't wait to see your next Vid.

[@mistersmith158]

OH YEAH!!!!! you girls are so much fun and canoeing up there looks like an amazing time. I can't wait for part two.

[@corpsebuunnie]

The quality of this is amazing

[@limealemur]

Ah so excited! Another Chris and Julia adventure!

[@sailintothesun3421]

So much talent shines through in these videos. Love it.

[@marczukoski]

Thank you for making the best outdoor videos on KZbin !!

[@ToddGordon]

I can't even deal with how good this. I'm transfixed.

[@josephgreiber3650]

Hi Chris and Julia, I just had to thank you for your wonderful videos! Now that I’m older with a bum hip, my portaging days are probably over (but not my water taxi days!) so I deeply appreciate your glorious photography and the stillness in your videos that allows us to hear the quiet and sounds of Algonquin, and the opportunity to see far reaches of the interior that I will never get to experience with my own eyes. I love your music choices that compliment the videos without distracting from the star of the show, the park itself. On a personal note, I am deeply inspired by your strength, intelligence, inner calm and your wonderful relationship. You are a tonic for our increasingly insane world. Congratulations, and the very best to you, Joe Greiber, Pittsburgh

[@filmic1]

It's all simply gorgeous of course, but the silhouette at 7:14 is super striking. You two rock!

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Gary! :)

[@petervedder4848]

Another great video, we just love watching your adventures. Can't wait to see part 2 !!

[@JasonIrwinTumblehome]

Great! That stabilized long reach cam work is superb. Glassy Mink lake... amazing.

[@thegreg79]

WOW! What a sweet video and adventure! This was very fun and easy to watch. Thank you for bringing us all along with you.

[@Sam_Holt]

Here from Robinets channel - subscribed. That moment when you quietened the music and showed the awe of the quiet still lake - AMAZING. I actually wowed. (I never WOW)

[@cheney9614]

me too

[@SumguyinTX]

I was so pumped to see this video Pop up in my notifications! Enjoy the adventure!

[@SkylinersYeti]

Love the ease as you pick up your canoe, Not my $250 84 lbs Oldtown canoe.

[@theelusivewoodlandhobo5348]

beautiful and graceful strokes on your paddling J.......that's how I imagine the Native Americans paddled themselves around... intimate with nature...

[@jake-hy2zb]

Such a wonderful surprise on a cool, rainy Saturday morning. Looking forward to the entire adventure. Thanks ladies.

[@ChrisProuse]

Glad to hear - thanks for watching Jake! :)

[@sharonspangler8118]

Living vicariously thru you guys. Watching with my Algonquin sweatshirt on.

[@ChrisProuse]

Aww! Glad to hear, and thanks for watching Sharon! :)

[@tomilittle1513]

Yep! 11K subscribers just went camping this weekend! Love it!

[@GoodTrails]

Awesome! I'm stoked to see more of these this summer. I really enjoy the vibe in all of your videos.

[@PaterVester]

Hey, we just came back from a 9 days canoetrip in the Park. Your videos made 3 of my friends and me do this. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for giving us the inspiration! Greetings from Germany to the two toughest Women on KZbin. Marco

[@ChrisProuse]

So glad to hear Marco! Congrats - that's awesome!! :)

[@Pisaei]

I was with him in the park! Apparently we were "attacked" by a "bear". Despite that it was good fun. Keep on paddling! Cheers, Pia

[@EuropaChronicles]

I’m here from Joe’s channel! You do great work! Looking forward to watching your vids!

[@joycefortin7877]

LOVE the tent setup to Blue Danube! And stunning scenery. Thanks.

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks Joyce! Glad to hear :)

[@tylersutherland9138]

I didn't think the quality could get any better, boy was I wrong! Best channel on youtube. Incredible video, great song choices. This gets me so excited for algonquin adventures this summer. Keep it up!

[@BluezCinema]

A bad day can turn into a great day when Chris uploads!

[@ChrisProuse]

Hope all's well BC :)

[@billiemontgomery8646]

Hello ladies. I have been a long time subscriber, but not actively participated in the comment area. This is me, jumping in with both feet and let you two know what an inspiration you have been! I believe my first real time watching a video was the end 2014! Loved the style of Julia running and Chris on the skates! !!! G E N I O U S!!! Thank you. The language that you two speak together when no sounds are made is aweinspiering. I promise not always this wordy. Keep doing what you do, cause it is working. From Sacramento CA.

[@rogercarrico4975]

Just loved this Chris. So enjoyable to watch. The scenery is breath taking there. Can't wait to see more!

[@colinwatt00]

Hey Chris, I was thrilled to see this video as I sat down with my coffee this morning. I’m looking forward to another season of canoeing content from you two. - C

[@ChrisProuse]

Glad to hear! Thanks for watching Colin :)

[@NatureBound]

So peaceful and calm. Amazing as always :)

[@xnbomb]

Production value continues to improve. Which is kind of shocking, because it was already really good. You just keep getting better, and it is a joy to watch. The lakes were like glass that day; amazing. I also liked how you were so focused on getting everything done at the campsite that the life jackets stayed on through dinner and beyond.

[@cassandrat.4057]

I say this every time but I love your work so much!!

[@matt.c]

I was so excited to see a new video! 😄 Woo hoo! I'm glad ice out has come and look forward to following along your journeys again this summer.

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks for watching Matt! :)

[@kykirker]

I like how you complement each other like when you are lifting the canoe or setting it down. Very nice videos!

[@gilligallou]

Morning, great to see you ladies out on the water again, thank you. Great video, Mink lake looks fantastic , 🥂 to more adventures. , Bob V.

[@katokhaelan4881]

This video made my day! You ladies rock!

[@berasev]

A new adventure and new beauty will be superb, continuing. Thank you, Chris.

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks for watching Bera! :)

[@michaeljasaits5243]

I found my way over to you from Joe's channel. I'm 2:27 in and I had to pause to comment. Amazing cinematography so far! I can't wait to binge the rest of your videos!

[@martyrule]

Wonderful video! Lakes of glass, beautiful woodlands, and the first post of the year from my favorite canoe trippers! Ahhh summer...

[@ChrisProuse]

Aww! So glad to hear - thanks for watching Marty! :)

[@diogoverardi7529]

Having my morning coffee and the KZbin notification pops out, nice!

[@ChrisProuse]

Nice! Thanks for watching Diogo! :)

[@grahamsimons1014]

Your videos are simply sooooo easy to watch, which is the real genius of a good film maker. Amazing cinematography!... 4 minutes and 20 seconds is just WOW! Thanks for filming and posting your adventures.

[@ChrisProuse]

Aww! Thanks so much Graham! Means a lot to me :)

[@bobmoto3528]

Really good. Watched it twice.

[@JAHinHK]

That shop seems like the type of place I could spend the entire day browsing. I'd likely leave without having bought anything as I'm not the outdoorsy type, but what an amazing shop.

[@TrailsWeHike]

Yes!! Now the new season has officially begun :) So excited for more Chris Prouse funsies! Amazing video as always, the reflection was absolutely gorgeous and then the blues when you started losing light, wow! Great scene. Can't wait for part 2!

[@MingWLee]

Thanks again for taking us 'with' you, it is just lovely and peaceful while you girls are canoeing on the lake~ :3

[@bregodk]

Thank you for making these and sharing them with us, your adventures and your delightful editing really brighten up a day 🙂

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Brego! Glad to hear :)

[@coreypollock7413]

Hello Chris, Joe sent me. Beautiful work. 1 million in 1 year, that"s my prediction.

[@Aaronime]

You got me and my friends all excited for the season!! This is the best content, it just gets better and better: the shots, editing, music. Good job!

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Aaronime! Glad to hear, and hope you have a great season! :)

[@davetaddeo]

i'm glad you made it to the top end of the park. you two are rockin' it! especially when you pull into a portage point. ha!

[@ChrisProuse]

Haha, thanks Dave! :)

[@MartenBrosch]

Dope filming and editing - enjoyed watching it! Thanks for sharing.

[@martinoutdoors6941]

Wow that second lake was like a mirror and mink(?) lake. I have recently brought myself a canoe although not as light as the ones you have but I’m getting out and learning to keep it in a straight line and having some fun. Thanks to you and thank you.

[@michaelmclaughlin8474]

Love your style of camping...!!!

[@sarthakanand9251]

I still can’t believe that you have just around 16k subscribers.Amazing cinematography, Drone shots would have made it perfect. Glad I found your channel today :)

[@Jybgame]

These videos are unparalleled on my feed. I know i'm not an oscar critic.. but i have to say, the editing is superb! The choices and shots and sequence to the story. I love it! And you've always had it but it so cool to watch it refine in unexpected ways as your videos come out.

[@MrAlpineAssassin]

You gals are so amazing. Absolutely stellar filmmaking skills, keep it up please! I'll be binge watching for a while

[@WaKefulcrane]

Joe Robinet sent me! I love your edits! and you're making me want to head to Algonquin.

[@michaelcarron3418]

You Gals are awesome.

[@prudhoecommunitychoir6448]

Looks amazing - we did a circuit starting and ending at Kiosk- our first night also on Mink Lake. Can’t wait to see the rest of your trip! Great pictures, the best on KZbin.

[@vtowner69]

Great video, actually closed my eyes during the balancing act on the barrel hehe. Beautiful park and scenery you shot.

[@JBELE051]

Cinematographie keeps getting better and better. I've been in theses canoe routes and I guarantee you it probably takes twice the time to navigate because of all the filming. Amazing work. Watching makes me feel like I'm there!

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks Jack! So true :)

[@KATBIRD1026]

Nice draw stroke @ second portage landing!!!!!! Nice J stroke stern paddler!!!!!!!

[@penelopehasley4871]

Great video- thanks for posting!

[@birdwatcherjean6293]

Loved this video, thanks so much for posting it :)

[@LarryHyett]

Great to see you guys out again! Such a great part of the park. Can't wait for the rest!

[@ChrisProuse]

Glad to hear Larry! Do you have any filming trips planned this year? Can't wait to see more of your content too! :)

[@LarryHyett]

I'll be out for sure Chris. I'm not sure when - I had hoped for a late April/early May trip but as you know that couldn't work. Hopefully I can get out for a couple of shorter trips in May and June and then I'm hoping to do a bigger trip in July or August.

[@philnesmith8635]

Tight intro! LOVE it. As always we are looking forward to the next part of the adventure!

[@trailrunr5717]

Great stuff ladies. Keep up the good work,

[@frost1978]

Oh my god the little camera shake with every hiccup made me giggle so much. Also the map edit after :D :D :D Wonderful video and edit, thanks a lot for that!

[@carlal9984]

Amazing ladies! I missed your videos and your adventures. 😊

[@ve3yjt]

I love that you guys promised to wear your PFDs more, but I thought you just meant in the canoe! I can't imagine a PFD so comfortable that I'd have forgotten to take it off by the time I'd built a fire and cooked supper. Love the vids!!

[@guohuali8205]

Great video. I'v watched many seasons. We were in Algonquin Park last fall. It was beautiful! We saw several moose there. We may visit there again.

[@truenorth365]

Chris is back and she is in Algonquin...awesome, totally made my saturday! Really nice filming and the whole video was a joy to see. Thanks for sharing, thumbs up from Sweden!

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Magnus! Glad to hear, and hope all's well in Sweden! :)

[@trailkrum]

Love your editing. Very neat!

[@johnbmadwis]

Dig it. This is wonderful. Thank you.

[@johnadams3476]

The tent set up with the music was 😎. Lol

[@ChrisProuse]

Haha, glad to hear! Thanks for watching :)

[@ginosanti4004]

You guys are hilarious. We head in on Monday!! Can't wait.

[@ChrisProuse]

Haha, thanks! Nice - hope you have a great trip! :)

[@sergiopcr]

OMG Chris, you make amazing videos!

[@GeoffSilva]

Great video! I loved your editing style

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks Geoff! :)

[@chriss.4258]

Assume love that part of the park!

[@tangylizardk6117]

Just wanted to say that watching you guys it has inspired me to get out and explore Algonquin. Started 3 years ago and so far have done 4 Backcountry trips. This year we went to magnetawan to queer lake and even though it was a spot we had already gone to before it was new for a couple of friends we brought along that had never done anything like it. Going to Achray, Grand lake in August! Can't wait! Keep doing what you do! Love the videos.

[@ontarioman100]

Great vlog always enjoy this! Enjoy stay safe.

[@mostlyshalin]

Superb, Chris. So excited for what's ahead. Your videos just keep getting better. :)

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Shalin! Glad to hear :)

[@adkrick5331]

Nice calm video with good taste in music .

[@Ralphandlouvlogs]

Wow! That lake looks so amazing! The water was so calm. BEAUTIFUL! Amazing production, as always 👌🏼

[@sderby4297]

Timing is everything! I once put in to do the Barron Canyon at 2am-finished the first portage at about 4 or 5am.

[@woodtech43]

Your videos have so much magic, outstanding work.

[@ChrisProuse]

Thanks so much Richard! Glad to hear :)

[@Followmeoutdoors]

Amazing video production (editing is so good) wow this is next level good, so many lessons to learn, and on top of that, you are telling such wonderful story...jealousy overload... and better late than never... Thank you so much. Paul.
