This 5 Day Canoe Trip in the Adirondacks on Cranberry Lake was my longest trip yet. Despite the fact we were prepared for 7 days, mother nature had other plans. Myself and my buddy Justin ‪@ItsGoodintheWoods‬ encountered her wrath in the form or torrential rains and some gnarly wind. We packed heavy for a great time, so we were ready for it. Good food and good times regardless!
Some of my favorite gear used on this trip:
Stove

Lantern

Headlamp

The duck was awesome. I always enjoy being out in a storm with the right rain fly. I would take the rain over the mosquitos any day.

This was a fun trip. Despite not being the wilderness experience I had hoped for, I had a really good time. Congratulations on your new record Great video effort man. On to the next one!

Yeah man it was a great time! Honestly the only things not wilderness like were the constant boats. Other than that the shoreline was great, like you said. I do not feel like it was a big negative though. Truth be told when you grow up where I did, this is Wilderness lol. Yes sir, ready for the next one. Already in the war room plotting!

Damn, that was some storm! That'll make you feel alive. Five days is a long time to stay out there. Well done!

Thanks! Yeah it was a good time. I wish I did a better job capturing the rain visually but the camera wasn't having it in the dark.

Nice video and quite the adventure! I'm pretty jealous of that hammock-tent of yours! I had my volume turned up all the way in parts and couldn't even understand what you were saying. Then my cat jumped a mile and scratched my legs when all of a sudden the volume came back and it had turned up all the way! Lol! Good call on bailing out with the impending storm.

The hammock setup rocks. After the days of rain I spent in it I'd recommend it to anyone. Total faith in it now. Feel free to check it out on our next outing..

Nice trip. I enjoyed your perspective. I used to eat largemouth bass all the time until I ate my first trout 😆 I still eat perch (ice fishing only) and crappie. Smallmouth bass is phenomenal when you smoke it with maple or alder.

Thank you for watching! I appreciate it! I love trout. But I won't shy away from bass now that I have tried it. If I can't nab a trout and I can get a bass well then bass it is lol. I'd like to try Perch. I have not had it yet.

They can both get eaten lol. I've never caught a walleye. It's on my list!

LOL, Justin sitting there watching you eat the pancakes & bacon. I would say he was probably jealous, but I know he cooks/eats well on his trips. Yup, no one likes an angry beaver. Good video, but for some reason the audio seemed low for a lot of it.

@projectknifehand Жыл бұрын

Hah. He had his own too. He was just looking at me with disgust. God you're gross lol. Or maybe it was pancake envy! Yeah it is frustrating how the audio turned out. There is no explanation for it. I've checked everything and it doesn't usually happen :( . If I try to redo the video I'll lose the small amount of traffic I have.

@Doc_Watson Жыл бұрын

@@projectknifehand No need to redo the video. Audio is there, just low. I know it's not like your other videos. I still enjoyed it. Maybe the look of disgust was for using pancake syrup instead of real maple syrup. LOL.

Curious if you are using dry ice in that cooler or just regular ice.

@projectknifehand Ай бұрын

I have used dry ice once and I believe it was on this trip. I put a small amount on the bottom lined with cardboard as suggested. Then the rest of the cooler was filled with a mix of regular ice and ice packs. It worked well. Though I have managed to keep ice for several days using little hacks here and there without dry ice. Using large ice packs or frozen water bottles mixed with cubes and cutting a piece of pink foam for a topper with relectix adds a lot of time to the cooler imo. Most cheaper coolers the lid isn't insulated well

Great video. Always had a great time camping on Cranberry. What was the site number where you stayed on Joe Indian Island?

Thank you and thanks for watching! To be honest I am not 100 percent sure. I'd have to look at the map and try to figure it out! I'll see if I can

I think there are very few bass fisherman that would take issue with that choice you made:)@@projectknifehand

@@bnatural2 lol yeah you might be right. Lots of those you don't eat bass folks kicking around though. I have to say it was great and I would easily do it again. And honestly if I were in a place where bass were a regular, probably on purpose.

@bnatural2 11 ай бұрын

many lakes would benefit from a little culling. I was a kid the last time I ate bass. I thought it was good too! @@projectknifehand
