Paddling Across the Adirondacks in a Day!

[@tedburnell5356]

Cannonballing the 90 is freaking insane. So freaking badass

[@mainetheway]

Haha it was a wild adventure to say the least. Thanks for watching! :)

[@rosiereijkley]

Way to go Mike & Cam, what a feat! Ryan, beautiful cinematography, the shot of them paddling through the early morning fog is chilling yet calming! And the pit crew cheering as the paddlers make the final approach :)) what an adventure!

[@mainetheway]

Yeah, we certainly couldn’t have done it without our pit crew!!

[@peterjohnson617]

You dudes rock without a doubt .The thing that really impressed me was you just did it on your own, you set out to do something and you got it done.

[@mainetheway]

So appreciate the kind words! :)

[@benthroop2461]

Awesome feat and incredible video, well done all!

[@mainetheway]

Thanks so much for watching, Ben! :)

[@David-e6d6n]

Congrats hell of a day but like I always say a rainy day in the adk is better than a sunny day anywhere else no place like the adk

[@mainetheway]

Couldn't agree more -- such a great adventure base! Thanks for watching! :)

[@anthonypayne2526]

Fantastic video! Having paddled that NFCT section 1 and 2 in the summer of 2022 with my son, camping along the way, seeing you finish that in A DAY is mind-blowing to me! Seeing all those places again brings up great memories.

[@mainetheway]

Love to hear that and so glad you enjoyed the video! :)

[@jonzander5797]

Amazing! Congratulations on the achievement, and thank you for the awesome production! My brain kept lighting up with familiarity of the route. I felt like I was right there alongside you. Wonderful video!

[@mainetheway]

Love to hear that -- so glad you enjoyed! :)

[@boatman222345]

Impressive accomplishment and excellent documentary photography. Very fortunate wind wise, I don't think I've ever paddled that far on lakes without encountering wind and waves along the way.

[@michellelawson1908]

What an incredible experience for you guys. The videography is outstanding. Well done.

[@mainetheway]

Thanks, Michelle! It was awesome to capture some Adirondack beauty!

[@Kipplauf]

KZbin algo suggested this for me, not disappointed! Extremely professional editing made an interesting video work!

[@mainetheway]

Glad you liked it! Welcome aboard!

[@brantcochran2478]

What an achievement: the film and the paddle!

[@mainetheway]

Thanks folks!

[@PinetreeState76]

Outstanding film! Great work, Ryan!

[@mainetheway]

Such a fun adventure! :)

[@DanielleGagnon-zm6zn]

Wow - what an amazing challenge! Way to go all - paddlers, pit crew & videographer!

[@mainetheway]

Thanks so much! So glad you liked it!

[@jeffreyking3807]

Wow. Great job. Those carrys are insane. Glad I watched.

[@mainetheway]

Thanks so much for watching! The carries truly are crazy! 🤪

[@samueltripp1512]

What an epic adventure! So impressed by you two.

[@mainetheway]

Thanks, Sam! It's fun to get the college crew back together for this epic event!

[@StormKingExpedition]

Beautifully done. Wonderful storytelling, photography and editing. Looking forward to watching many of your other videos. Subscribed!

[@mainetheway]

Really appreciate your kind words! :)

[@PaulTomblin]

I've never done the 90, but I recognize so many of those shots from various races (Old Forge, old Tupper Lake 9 Miler (which used to start at the Crusher), BluMouLA-BuFuRa, Long Lake, Round The Mountain) and also the time I drove into Ashton Landing and paddled up to the dam and back when I was pit crewing for a couple of friends.

[@mainetheway]

Keen eyes -- such a beautiful route through the Adirondacks! :)

[@mikefarnsworth7444]

Awesome accomplishment! I ache all over just thinking about it.

[@mainetheway]

Haha many sore muscles were had in the making of this video! ;)

[@JohanBart1]

Quick tip for the next time you portage at night. With some larger waist band elastic or similar, you can carry your head lamp around your chest or belly. That way there is no dark shadow from the canoe and you’re not blinded by the reflection of the canoe.

[@mainetheway]

Great tip -- thanks! :)

[@thethomascayer]

Impressive work, congrats on such an epic accomplishment! The footage on this was beautiful, and the doc format tied it together nicely. Keep up the good videos!

[@mainetheway]

Thanks a bunch! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@richardbilsback6942]

Nice work! Thanks for producing the great video.

[@mainetheway]

So kind of you to say -- thanks! :)

[@abbyscharun6936]

Excellent job

[@mainetheway]

Really appreciate the kind words! :)

[@rickmanning8722]

Great trip guys

[@mainetheway]

Thanks so much, Rick! :)

[@northguilford]

Well done, and there’s the difficulty of following the route without jumping from the normal stopping and starting points of the 90-Miler.

[@mainetheway]

Thanks so much -- pretty sure the "Outlaw" route is the original race course! :)

[@jameswalter3136]

Amazing! Congratulations! How did you avoid blisters on your hands?

[@mainetheway]

Lots of paddling beforehand to build up callouses! ;)

[@Bootstrapjack59]

Amazing, I could not do that.

[@mainetheway]

Haha -- it takes a special type of person! ;)

[@PaulTomblin]

I recognize that BluMouLA-BuFuRa hat!

[@thelakeman5207]

Why would you rush thru such a beautiful area? I canoe to enjoy and appreciate the wilderness and never for "the fastest time". But if that's what you do, go for it. To each their own.

[@mainetheway]

We've also paddled this route over three days as well as over six days -- this was a personal challenge. Always appreciating the wilderness! :)
