[@FreshAyers]

Half way through your series and finding it riveting, loving every minute of it!

[@MaddyTheGoose]

Glad you're enjoying it, thanks for watching!

[@FreshAyers]

Loved every minute of it! :)

[@icewolf371]

I love how Maddy comes back for you while you are walking, very cute.

[@69Grunden]

Looks like a lot of work but the pay off is worth it. You get to experience what very few people can. Thanks for sharing.....

[@concretecubes]

I can't get over how amazing these videos are! your dog is amazingly cute, you're smart and informative about camping stuff. and even better, you filmed most of it!! Awesome vids, hope you make more solo vids!

[@YTSKI]

Wow,you eat right on the trip. I am really enjoying this series, and it reminds me a bit of survivorman. Thanks!

[@TheTroutBrothers]

Love the video, getting me super stoked for my spring trips!

[@gnrhubbs]

You make your food sound like it taste like heaven on earth! It is true though, that the food does taste extra incredible when out there!!! Sweet videos Troy, I am on my 3rd round of this particular trip. I have a few of "The Adeventure Map's " and am following your trip on that. Passes the winter by. Phil

Awesome series man.. great job!

[@asteroid684]

I like Maddy's lifesaver, you should get her some rain/heat coats too!

[@benbaumgartner7460]

Man, I want to go camping with you, I'll carry your stuff for you. You are an amazing wilderness explorer. I love your videos, definitely subscribed.

[@mrfurball]

Ur taco wraping abilities are legendary. :P

[@MaddyTheGoose]

@Bond007starcraft I did. I'll be making a more detailed video of cooking that meal up. I just used a packaged of frozen shrimp which I then thawed and tossed in the dehydrator. I'll definitely be doing that one again. They came out great. When dehydrated they're very light and feel and sound like little pieces of plastic.

[@bongdudugenio9947]

Hey its so addictive to follow your trip footage (complete episodes) so amazing solo trip but I just wonder you never encounter any wild animals along your way. perhaps they are in season of hibernating.

[@canesser1]

Fantastic vids Maddy, watched them last year and implemented some of your ideas on a canoe trip in the Canadian shield of eastern Manitoba and it worked out great. Reviewing your trip and picking up some more tricks. Thinking of drilling the holes in my thwart for the bungee cord. What size did you end up drilling, happy with the remaining strength? Are you using one long or series of bungies? Hope you do more trips and tricks soon.

[@The85F0X]

man im down in southeast Texas and its just too hot to be doing a nice trip. Waiting till october or some cool down.

[@This.is.EllisMcPickle]

Why didnt you make a windbreak with wood, to help prevent the tarp from tearing? Great videos sounds like a hell of a trip!

[@deanznz]

I'm working through your great trip here and concerning your heavy pack weight giving you hips a hard time..... I wondered if you had seen those one wheeled pack thingies, supposed to half the weight you carry on you as the wheel takes the other half.

[@adreabrooks11]

It's a shame you got so much wind on this leg of the trip, and had to focus so much on task. Happy Isle and Merchant are my favourite lakes in Algonquin, and they're often glassy-smooth. Mind you, I tend to go in the spring or late summer; whereas you mentioned you were going at the beginning of the moose rut. If the amount of wind dissuaded you from this area, I'd recommend another trip - it's a seriously gorgeous area.

[@dashackleford]

what is the sleeping bag for your dog? is it specifically made for that or did you improvise. all your videos are awesome man. you're living the life

[@eliboswell5222]

seriously cool

[@Naughtz]

So glad I came across your channel. I'm addicted to these solo adventures. What canoe do you have?! I'm on the market for a tripping canoe and really like yours. Looks to be super light weight. Thanks

[@CPrzywojski]

Was wondering with all the rain you were getting if at any point you were worried about flash flooding? I'm from St. Louis and spend a lot of time canoeing the Ozark riverways and I can tell you with the amount of rain so far on your trip, if it were the Ozarks, you'd be in a big heap of trouble due to flooding. Anyway, great channel and thanks for sharing!

[@troygaylord5844]

+CPrzywojski Not so much, I was in Algonquin park and luckily flash flooding isn't really a problem there.

[@packdog70]

Hey Troy, when are you posting new videos? Been missing your outstanding travelogs!

[@GWNDFM]

Can you tell us how old you were when you made this trip. You seem to fix really great meals. Does Maddy stay in her bag all night? do you have to put her in it or does she do that on her own? what kind of bag does she have? thanks.

[@kyletango]

i can't believe that you didn't bring a reel. All that water.

[@MascisMan1]

Just wondering what you brought to feed your dog? How did you pack it?

[@concretecubes]

Most likely he has a portable filter... Either that or he boils the water and cools it down afterwards.

[@mubasharqadeerSAP]

@MaddyTheGoose HOW DID U FIND WATER TO DRINK THERE??

[@coffinshaker]

How much does your canoe weight, length, width, brand?

[@FredBushcraft93]

Hi wouaw very very good

[@mrouterrim]

How many lbs of dog food did u take ?

[@jORDANFX4U]

Do you feed Maddy food or dose she just fend for herself? Just asking the co-star.LOL.

[@MaddyTheGoose]

Maddy gets her regular grub on the trail, but one difference is that she also gets a little extra from my plate which never happens at home. Makes for one happy camper :)

[@Randy__Marsh]
