[moppieoei]

Troy and Maddy,

Thanks for sharing your advantures,

Done some canoeing trips in Sweden, not as desolate as our trips though.

I love the quietness (non urban) and the experiancing the elements.

Cheers for this very good series of films!

Greeting from Holland,

Bas

Nice trip Troy, to bad you had so much rain to deal with. I understand the need to get away for some personal time now and again but on a trip like that it might be a good idea to invite along a good friend maybe. Atleast then on the long protages it might be a tad bit easyer on your self, just a thought. Anyway take care man and stay safe...

[townkevin59]

Just watched all 11 episodes and they were Fantastic!!. If you ever consider putting all your series together on a DVD for sale, I would buy them. It looked to be a magnificent journey and Maddy seemes to be a wonderful Companion. Thank you for giving all of us veiwers an insight on what it's like to Portage through rugged & beautiful Wilderness. I hope all is well with the toe, I have gone through it myself and endured more than 6 surgeries on it. Take care Troy.

Excellent videos Troy!

[MsJojo540]

Have your wife and kids ever went canoe with you and how old are they?

[justinjmetz]

Great job Troy ! Going on a 3 day fall trip to Algonquin this weekend. This really got me pumped. !Great organizational skills.

[Partydjz]

I just watched all 11 episodes in a row, fantastic journey, thanks so much for putting in the time and effort. I've always wanted to visit Algonquin.

[CdnLifeguard71]

Troy, just got back from a week in the BWCA-all well. Used the pot cozies, rain fly (+Siberian hitch) paddle bungie cords, Merrill ankle highs, & flint/steel on birch bark -all thanks to watching your videos! Keep it up and looking forward to your next trip and video. Got any guidebook recommendations for the Algonquin area?

[sbouchards]

looks great



[pagantrex]

Hey Troy, Just finished up watching the videos-Nice work-Enjoyed every minute! Will watch again soon.

[camper905]

TROY AND THE GOOSE MADE IT OUT !! Thanks for providing us more videos, they are much appreciated. Great to watch these types of videos when one just can't make it out there and wants to be out there! Thanks again and hope more are a coming!

[andythehedge]

Yea me to. Nice to see another trip troy. Keep up the good work

[JBtheProducer]

aww, i wanted to see maddy's reaction when you got to the car! haha

[fishbaydoc]

You probably had a an ingrown toe nail causing an infection called a paronychia that requires a minor surgical procedure. I am an ER doc and could have helped you out with the Novocain I tend to carry on my trips. Hope it wasn't too bad for you at the clinic the next day. The shots to numb you up are the worst part. I really enjoyed your videos. Superb videography and love your commentaries and camp craft. To the BWCA next month. Hope mine goes as smoothly as yours but I'm not traveling quite s

[trinitymike]

JUST back from the park...I hurt MY right Big Toe as well, caught it on an exposed root pn the Head-Harness Lake Portage...looks like yours..swollen and nasty....

[chardpp]

Troy, I have to thank you for taking us all on another fantastic canoe trip through Algonquin. The Brent-Big Trout portion was familar and it was cool to see some of the large central/eastern lakes. Been meaning to make it to Lac Lavielle for years, retracing the route of John Robbins in "The Incomplete Anglers".

Great video... Hopefully we can follow you on another trip from the 2011 season. And p.p., your co-star Maddy is a family favorite!!!

Cheers

[daileyd01]

Wonderful series, thanks for sharing. Do you fish on any of your trips?

[MaddyTheGoose]

@daileyd01 Not usually, but I have been known to bring a rod now and again.

[spsmith1965]

Thanks so much for the excellent series.

[Gamiboy22]

This has been a great trip. you should think about burning it all on a dvd and mailing it to me, it would make for a perfect rainy day watch.

[BarefootsChild]

Yep, Thanks very much for taking us along with you and Maddy, Troy. Take care of that toe dude. What ever happened to your red canoe? This has been a great trip over the last few weeks.

Ta Da!!!!! Troy n Maddy made it...I was starting to have my doubts. LOL

[TheCanoeCamper]

great trip Troy. Did a similar trip in Superior. 9 days. out. rained 7 of those days. and slugged on regardless. You have a very positive attitude. One of the reasons I prefer solo too. .Keep em coming .

[woodpecker066]

Thank you Troy, an excelent series .

[PackMyKit]

Another great video, thanks. Looks like you finally had to pay the fees due for a great trip, I don't even get out of my bag if it's raining. Poor old Maddy, get an umbrella :)

[ironearth701]

That was an awesome trip thanks for let us all see it with you! You have inspired me to take the kids on a canoe camping trip down the I&M canal!

[jaysafini]

So sad.....they are over. I couldn't wait to get home from work to see the new videos. I like how you spread them out...I had something to look forward to for a couple of weeks.

Great job! I enjoyed the whole series. I cant wait until you post more videos.

[ohm1163058]

Its kinda bittersweet, the end, great series though, I really enjoyed it. I just noticed, are you paddling backwards? It looks like you have what would normally be the rear seat going forward with the pack on it, is this for balance or to give Maddy some more room?

[silverdragon572]

@ohm1163058 Usually when paddling solo, you seat yourself in the front with the back facing forward. As you said, it's for balance purposes. :)

[ryan123469]

i love your vids thay awsome im thinking of making one of the bruce peninsula national park in 2 weeks keep up all the fun trips
