Lost In The Woods - A Canoeing Story in Canada's Remote Boreal Forest --- Rare Wolverine Sighting

I don’t know if I’ll ever have another trip quite like this one. Nearly having a moose swim into the side of my canoe, just minutes before having a wolverine run along the shore beside me! These are just a couple of the highlights from this incredible trip through Canada’s Boreal Forest in northern Ontario.
In the summer of 2023 I (Keenan) and my trusty travel companion Betty-Lou planned a trip through a seldom traveled park in northwestern Ontario. St Raphael provincial park only sees a handful of canoeists every year and there is very little information about this park. Although, I had high hopes that this would be an incredible canoe trip it completely exceeded my expectations!
Seeing eagles, moose, wolverine, bear and what felt like hundreds of loons, this trip was exceptional for wildlife. Catching a never-ending supply of Walleye just added to this incredible journey. Honestly, it’s hard to ask for anything more on a canoe trip and I feel very lucky I had the opportunity to explore and canoe through this amazing place.
I also want to give a big shout out to Brad and Leah @ExploreTheBackcountry (studio.kzbin.info/door/... the work they put into their website and videos. I used their maps, which were incredibly useful. If you haven’t already, head on over to their channel and check out some of the incredible trips these guys tackle.

Simply wonderful video, 10/10. What a special route this is and I couldn't agree more about wanting to go back, especially after watching this. I thought woodland caribou would've been the pinnacle of wildlife sightings here but no. Still can't believe that and on that beautiful little unnamed lake (I think) to cap off your trip...wow. You got the royal treatment here man, and your captured it all magnificently

[@CanoeTheNorth]

Thanks guys. It’s a special place. You’re right, I didn’t get the caribou swimming directly at me but the wolverine was a pretty incredible moment. It was on the little unnamed lake. Still can’t believe it.

Very nice video… your photography is brilliant!! Love your stuff

[@KY-ge7uy]

@@CanoeTheNorth Caribou can be curious. My hubby , while in the northern bush, came across some caribou. They were a long way off but he could see heads turning towards him. He simply sat down on a bolder and took out his thermos of coffee. While he enjoyed the coffee he was watching some of the caribou slowly coming towards him...curious. They stopped about 20 ft. away, sniffed the air and watched him a while longer then took off running up the hill. Maybe your caribou simply wanted to check you out.

[@OkinawaWild]

I'll tell you what, Keenan, there are a lot of channels doing this kind of content, and your cinematography is at the top of the game, but what sets you apart, IMO, is how your love of being there comes across. Never change.

[@XanderBudnick]

Ohh sweet new Canoe the North video, ill watch for a few mintues... watches entire thing :p Beautiful trip, narration and imagery Keenan! It was fun to relive Jon and My trip from a few years ago, you stayed in some places we had been. You're fishing experience was far superior!

[@XanderBudnick]

ok now finished for real this time.. and those wildlife sightings!!!! dayummn

[@CanoeTheNorth]

Thanks man. Ya….crazy last day with the wildlife. Actually the whole trip was pretty amazing. I remember watching your trip with Jon thinking it looked amazing and it didn’t disappoint. I purposely didn’t rewatch your video before taking this trip because I wanted it all to feel new to me but I’ll have to watch both your videos again now. It will be cool to see the same places in your films. Appreciate the comment. Just saw that insta post on your Arctic trip 🥶. Very cool.

Another incredible video! I live in Scotland, one of the most nature deleted countries in the world. The thought of just being out in the forest knowing there could be bears, wolves, wolverine and even moose nearby is something I would love to experience at least once in my lifetime.

[@CanoeTheNorth]

Well sounds like you’ll have to make a trip over to Canada sometime. We are incredibly lucky here. It’s easy to take for granted. Thank you very much for your comments.

[@davidrussell8795]

Buy an airplane ticket to Thunder Bay ontario,or Whitehorse, Yukon territory, or Ottawa ontario and rent a car .anywhere north of Barrie ontario is pretty wild country! Buy a GPS,with an emergency beacon,and a warm sleeping bag (20° f rated! Ground can be cold)and a rain tarp,and come on over,there's lots of room out in Timbuktu! There's Fort Frances to Kenora,with thousands of puddle lakes,bush,fish moose,dear elk? Caribou etc! And black bears! And have a fantastic time!

[@haroldmilroy4489]

Yet another amazing production. The wolverine came out to thank you for all of the happiness your hard work has given us. The moose was awesome. Once, while canoeing the Bell River in the Yukon, I came around an island to see a cow moose that had just birthed her calf on the bank. Steam was still coming from the calf and the mother’s legs were still weak. They were so close I could have touched them with my paddle. I just froze and floated by them forever burning that memory in my mind. But I never saw a wolverine on a canoe trip. So cool. Thanks again.

[@CanoeTheNorth]

Woooowwww. That’s a wild experience. Crazy!!!! We would love to canoe the bell river. Thanks for sharing that story! Incredible.

[@davidhuth5659]

Fantastic film mate. This is the first video I've seen of yours. Beautifully shot and nice soothing music and tempo. I'm from Australia and whenever I watch a Canadian canoe tripping video I'm always envious of the access you guys have to such fantastic paddling. Consider yourself lucky (I'm sure you already do!). Also, it's so great that you're able to take you furry companion along on these trips. In Aus, even though we have huge amounts of wild public land, unfortunately dogs aren't allowed in the majority of it. I have a Kelpie (an Australian working dog similar to your Heeler) and every time your dog made a sound my dog perked right up and watched (I think he's also jealous haha). Thanks for a great video mate. All the best.

[@CanoeTheNorth]

Hey. Thanks so much for reaching out and watching the video. Glad you enjoyed it. You’ve got a kelpie! Very cool, and extremely intelligent dog breed. There’s something special about herding dogs. I’m surprised to hear that dogs aren’t allowed in your parks and public land. That’s a real shame. I couldn’t imagine heading out without one or both of our dogs.

Thank you. I see a big white lens in your profile picture there. You must love to capture wildlife as well.

@@CanoeTheNorth yes, I do! I am kicking myself this morning. As I was photographing a male cardinal I heard a twig snap. I turned to to see a fisher cat less than 8 feet from me turn and disappear down the trail. Quite the experience but I completely missed any shot! I have never seen one in person before and thinking now initially it was too close for that lens to focus on. Who knows maybe I will get lucky and get a second chance!

@@naturallyadriftphotoadvent123 ahhh. I’m sure you’ll get another opportunity sometime. Best of luck! 🤞

Thankfully got some time to watch Betty Lou & Keenan of course living out my dreams. Priceless wildlife sightings, epic walleye fishing, peaceful solitude. Great trip and film 😊

[@CanoeTheNorth]

[@CanoeTheNorth]

Thank you very very much! It was an incredible adventure!

[@tomkeller6982]

Wow. Never been so riveted to a canoe doc film. Just wouldn't let me leave it. I'm a dog lover so your relationship with him was real special too, in such a place as that. Well done.

[@CanoeTheNorth]

Wow, thank you! Appreciate this comment very much.

[@dustyroselansall8185]

What an absolutely marvelous video! And your narration, the scenery, all the images you shared - the portages, the 'white water,' the wildlife, was such that I felt I was right there making this journey with you. Love the sound of loons. And you sure had a wonderful travelling companion with Betty-Lou. Thank you for sharing this! This was my first video as only just found you, but I will be coming back to check out all your others!
