Tent and Canoe Camping| Stuck at camp | Upper Peninsula Michigan

[@thewookieandbeanpole]

OMG!! Loved this. Looks like you salvaged a good time. Our first canoe trip, we brought so much extra food because I was not going to go hungry! Now we only bring an extra day's worth of food. And we always bring clothes to layer - never trust a forecast. Our first Boundary Waters trip was 40 and rain for 4 days with white caps the first day. It really makes for good memories when you're somewhere warm and dry. I'm jealous that you've been out on a canoe trip already this year. It is SOOO difficult to dial down the filming gear. It all seems essential. - bean

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Well yea and we should no better about being up north, it can always get colder, I forget though that 40 in the teardrop is way different than in a ground tent and wind plus it got down to literally trying to smash everything in the bags and get them closed and seemed like we didn't have any extra room, a set of long johns will always stay in the bag from now on and at least the puffy coats. Drives me nuts only carrying one of my cameras and pairing down lenses, I like to drag half a movie studio into woods normally lol. Hope you guys get out soon, it was awesome despite the cold. I think we will try our first multi day and portage in that same area later in the year before we tackle BWCA. Looking forward to more of these though, there is something about being way out even further than most go. Thanks for stopping by, tell Chet we said hi

@@Live2dayWanderland I can't get my pack weight under 50 pounds. No matter what I try to cut. But as long as I don't have to carry the canoe, it works for me. - bean

What a trip!!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Hey man, hope you are doing well. We definitely had a good time despite a few issues lol so peaceful out there. Thanks for always stopping in 🙏❤️

[@bustersmith5569]

Thought you guys did great !! TY,,,

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Thanks so much!!!! we loved it, going to do some more as fall gets here.

[@ThoseWhoGlampTogether]

Ok, you may have to take us on one of these trips! Looked like fun!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Let's go!!! It was so peaceful ❤️

[@keepaeyeonit2709]

Nice camp spot definitely secluded👍

[@Live2dayWanderland]

It was awesome out there

[@Great_Places_Seen_GPS]

Great video, I enjoyed it!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Thanks my friend hope you are doing ok!

[@Apeaceofthewoods]

Love this video! It’s so rare to come across other beginner canoe campers. I’m excited to see more of this…You both handled the challenges well ☺️ Also…what camera do you use? This is some of the best video quality I’ve seen

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Oh hey neighbor sort of lol We have seen some of your stuff recently, very cool to see another Midwestern youtuber, canoeist etc. We have so much more to learn lol biggest challenge is getting the dog to chill. We are hoping to do another canoe trip soon, looking forward to fall. I am a freelance videographer so they are pretty high end cinema cameras and lenses. Mixed with some go pro, I am not trusting enough of us staying dry in the boat to use them during the paddling. Maybe we will cross paths/portages one day lol Thanks for the kind words

[@Apeaceofthewoods]

@@Live2dayWanderland 😂 I was cracking up when you were putting up the tent and the dog was ready to chill right on top of it. I’ve got a lot to learn also so it’s really cool to see you guys overcome challenges like this. Helps me think through and plan for similar scenario’s (actually getting stuck) ok that makes sense…feel a little bit better about myself because my camera loos nothing like that! I’m already one camera down so I get it lol. Anyway, I hope so. Until then best of luck to you both!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

@@Apeaceofthewoods and for Lulu to just plop down like that is rare, she hardly ever stops and of course it was when we tried to get the tent going. It is fun to overcome stuff and challenge yourself but safety is a big thing, we learned we need to take a few things more serious. Don't worry about your camera stuff, I started with only a gopro years ago and am completely self taught, I love filming and trying to be different. So many huge channels though just use a gopro and phone etc. I tinker with color grading as well more now. You will be progress so much the more you do it. We watch Xander Budnick and Lost Lakes and it always makes me nervous how they just throw the camera and tripod setup in the boat and film along the way, I guess it helps though that they make enough to replace them easily lol Very cool to have met you on here.

[@vickaiser]

So fun. What an experience.

[@Live2dayWanderland]

It was really nice out there, very peaceful. Thanks for stopping in

[@tangenttrails]

What a trip! Y’all picked a beautiful area to camp but oh that wind! Chalk it up to being a good shakedown trip for next time. Canoeing is something I still need to experience. Thanks for sharing the adventure!✌️

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Thanks man, it was a learning experience but we had fun regardless. The wind and cold was still better than being torn up by bugs

[@tangenttrails]

@@Live2dayWanderland True. I'd rather take the cold too.

[@kdsailorgirl]

Looks fantastic!!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

It was pretty magical out there 😍 thanks for stopping by 🙏

[@kdsailorgirl]

Glad to hear there’s another T@Gger doing this 😊

[@chetwilliams5038]

Hey guys, the U.P. was one of our biggest flubs. A hike around lake of the clouds. A muffin for food and a bottle of coke. We misread the map for distance and didn't plan for elevation changes. 13 miles turned into 19+ and ten hours till we saw the truck again. McD's in Wi was the only food around and open. Speaking of food Knorr chicken and rice with a can of chicken is a standard with us.

[@Live2dayWanderland]

lol oh man that sounds painful, I would have just died right there and given up. Yeah the chicken and rice worked out well and hit the spot. We will have to try that again. One day we need to do a BWCA trip together but we gotta get a little more practice and I need to be less fat lol thanks for stopping in buddy

[@Sailor376also]

Pizza place in White Pine.

[@JeffEmburyEsquire]

Well you survived!! I would have sent the helicopter out to deliver more oatmeal had I known!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Lol imagine if I had kicked the bucket because she didn't pack more oatmeal ;p such a small packable item

[@stevemueller7376]

well you did it good job

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Thank you my friend, we had a good time

[@Sailor376also]

There are no mistakes on a camping canoe trip. There are no schedules beyond what the weather permits. If the wind is blowing,, you stay right there. "I have to be at work on Monday !" If you are dead,, you will not be at work. Wilderness, implies a long list of taking enough, or a spare. I carry enough repair materials for the canoe, that I have bragged that I could saw the canoe in half,, and repair it sufficiently to get home. I carry a variety of clothing, extra food,, and lots of paperbacks to sit and read and enjoy the day.

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Thanks for the wise words, we definitely have more to learn and refine but it was awesome. We can't wait to go again soon. Thank you for stopping in

[@newfoundoverland]

looks fun from my end lol rest vid

[@Live2dayWanderland]

It was fun, so peaceful out there

[@JonathanRobsonPhoto]

You nailed the use of the anamorphic on this one. Great stuff!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

I need to get another one in the set, wider focal length, but yeah your comment influenced the edit lol appreciate it

[@JonathanRobsonPhoto]

I’m no videographer… too much work for m e 😃, but I do have a Fuji gfx 100, it has a xpan wide aspect built in which is really nice, as it works with all lens. You don’t need 102mp for video, but I believe all of their cameras have it built in

[@Live2dayWanderland]

@@JonathanRobsonPhoto that is a nice camera!!! I've had to slow down my B&H or Adorama deliveries at the house, she might kill and bury me in tacos lol

[@JonathanRobsonPhoto]

@@Live2dayWanderland😂

[@bevkleckner7414]

Great video! The only changes we see that you need to make is to bring more oatmeal and creamer! I hate wind!

[@kdsailorgirl]

Nothing worse than feeling cold like thwt😮

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Well and you know we love winter camping, this just caught us off guard. I'll just keep a pair of Long Johns in the pack from now on lol

[@thewookieandbeanpole]

Oh. And you never did your goodbye at the dock. Was that because you weren't talking to each other at that point? - bean

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Lol well I did stop recording for a bit near the end cause it got a little wilder and she started paddling us with the wind but I think really we just forgot and were exhausted by that point. It was a fun trip though

[@thewookieandbeanpole]

I hate paddling in the wind. I completely sympathize. I only want calm weather. - bean
