You searched for the perfect spot. You cleared your own path to get there. You shouldered the burden to bring everything you needed. Even when you stumbled, you kept on going. Solo you experienced all the reward of your efforts. I'd say that whatever trials you're facing, you'll apply the same strategies and reap an awesome reward. You got this! Two words: CHEERFUL ENDURANCE! 👊💪

Careena, in my 70 years what I've learned is, there's 4 things that can get you through. A dog, a horse, a guitar and a canoe! I'd say you've got it covered!

Sometimes without an occasional storm , we really don't appreciate the calm and the clear. We'll help you weather the "storm " gurle. Here's to hoping and praying for a great calm and clearing. We are here and eager to walk the storm with you and enjoy the calm after ,thank you for being there for us. Til our next adventure.

No matter what you are going through, stay strong 💪 . Thanks for your inspiring videos even if it’s “not your day”. Greetings from Slovakia 💙

A bad day in the field is way better than a good day in the office...

Beautiful lake! This vid is a good reflection of life in general. It all comes down to perseverance but also knowing when it’s time to come up with another plan. Whatever’s got you down, you’ll eventually process it and assimilate it into what makes you, you. Hang in there Careena.

What a beautiful lake. Thanks for takin us along, it always feels like we’re there with you. 🍂

we understand very well what you are going through. I myself have to cross to a new start 3 years ago. My passion for nature saved me. Never forget who you are. You are a strong and beautiful woman. All of my thoughts are with you and the situation you are in. And wonderful video! Wow! BTW, sory if my english is not good, I am your neighbor from Quebec, Laurentides ♡♡♡

When something really big goes wrong in our lives it makes all the small annoyances (like snagging your line and losing a favorite lure) seem that much worse. From what I know of you based on your channel you are going to come through this life change stronger and even more resilient. You are a role model for me as a woman who wants to spend more time outdoors with herself and her dogs and I hope the love from your family and friends will help you through the healing process.

Grzzz is growing up!! Enjoy every minute with him, time flies by.

I'm sad for what you're going through. This video shows pressing on in the challenges-----and thank you for taking us along----beautiful colors there at the end---sending prayers and love from Iowa.

The most important thing is for you to be safe on your adventures. There is always a reason for everything that happens in life. You have a lot of support in the youtube world we are here for you and griz and will continue to support you. Thank you for showing us the beauty of Canada stay strong you got this;)

Alexis and Grizz adventures!!

Hey Corrina, I just wanted to let you know that I am sorry for what you are going through. Your left hand said it all. I have always admired your strength, both physically and mentally. Nothing and noone can bring you down. You are amazingly strong, amazingly beautiful and just the coolest chickeeta on the planet in my book! No worries my friend! Just keep smiling, because life is good! Give Grizz a hug for me!

Digging the new boat and paddle, sometimes we need to weather the storm to find the path we're looking for. So many of us come here to see your positive attitude and uplifting smile. Send prayers 🙏 . Looking forward to the next adventure maybe it'll include some cowboy coffee ☕, freeze dried chili, and oatmeal 😋

Love your adventures with Grizz!! Keep the faith...Life will all work out!

I always told my kids that the road of life is paved with many potholes that can bounce you down into the ditch. The question is do you stay in the ditch or get back on the road and keep moving forward? I have no doubt you’ll keep moving forward. Cheers.

So nice to see you and Grizz again! Thanks for taking us along and sharing everything, the good, the bad and of course the ugly. It’s part of what makes your channel so genuine. Take care!!

Girl, you've got some perseverance - shows in everything you do! Just your determination alone, is motivation on your channel. Take time for you!!!! Bigger and better, always.

Life is full of surprises, some good, and some challenging. It's the challenging ones that make us who we are. You're a strong willed person, you will overcome. Nature is the best therapist. Keep doing what you do. We all love you and have a great deal of respect for you. Rock on young lady .❤

Just amazing!! I can't believe you can carry all those stuff..all together ..strong like a tractor😁👍

Hello, i am a 55 year old man, i know what you are talking about, you got all you need and you are such an inspiration to all of us, and we do not even get to enjoy the open wilderness you have to live with, that is such a gift to be able to enjoy the great outdoors, i love your channel, one of the very best channels to watch, and i love the timbermates channel , See Careena , things worked out for you,....and you have great content on your channels, thank you..

Hard days in life are a guarantee. Getting out in the bush is just the food your soul needs. Nothing beats bush therapy! Keep up the good work!!

Remember that sometime you have to go through a valley to enjoy the mountain top experiences of life. Blessings!

I went through something very similar, regardless of how it came about. It's good to see you find some peace outdoors and enjoying yourself. Be mindful to reach out to others; friends, family or even those from the community. Having someone to chat with even about the mundane can be a good up lifter! Side note; being from Vermont you've certainly inspired my next trip once the border opens up. Ontario looks amazing!

Careena so happy to have you back with us, we missed you and Grizz. Life can be tough as old boots sometimes but those boots take us to amazing new places. I hope you’re doing well and taking care of yourself. Xxx

Amazing video! The scenery, the doing-it-yourself in tough conditions, all of this makes us stronger! So happy to see you back. You’re one badass woman and will get thru these tough times. 💪🏼

By the tone in your voice those changes were unexpected and not so great. Im so sorry ❤️ Keep your head up, you got this ❤️💪🏻 hugs to you and Grizzy bear!

Advancing in another direction. No defeat.

You are one reason I am thinking of going camping with my 5 yr. old grandson after not camping for 40 years. He loves watching Griz. Tough times make one stronger, hang in there.

Okay, I'm in love...you love the outdoors and camping...you have a sweet looking Taco and you have a cool Dog. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!

I have a feeling i know whats got you so stressed out, i can tell you arnt your self in this video... Love going on these trips with you. Stay safe Alex...

Ive been through a lot recently, I think something similar in the last year to yourself and I found a ton of piece out where you’re at. That’s actually my favourite area to go, Algonquin and surrounding lakes. Lived here a while and only just started taking advantage of it as much as it want now that I have my me time. Stay strong, hope you find the same peace I did!

Thanks for sharing your adventures. You have a lot of people pulling for you! We are there clearing the brush with you. We're on the water with you and sitting with you at the fire. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, Careena.

It's so enjoyable spending time with Alexis 💕

Chin up lovely, we're always here for you as support and we're going nowhere. Great video, doesn't always go as planned, but when it does.... Best wishes as always

Children suffer the most! I hope your daughter is doing okay through all of this.

One new follower from New York here. Love a strong girl with grit that's into the outdoors and not afraid to go it on her own with her trusty fur companion.

Nice seeing you and Grizz out doing what you love. Many of us are struggling right now...not in the same boat but all in the same waters. Take care Careena.

Lets be honest,, this channel is "Griz's outdoor adventures with his Hoomans" Hoomans Spent months scouting, making trail, getting canoe on new lake Griz blazes new trail every time out, rolls in muddy water, ponders why are the hoomans having such difficulty. Glad to see you back out and "aw booot" kept looking in woods for "creepy" stalker

Take your time, its a process to rediscovering your balance. 👍👍👍👍❤

Another beautiful playplace for yourself and Grizz .. life tends to create curves on what we thought was going to be a long straight journey ,, we know you are a strong woman and will do what needs to be done for yourself and loved ones in your corner.. ..Hope the recent move hasn't created more hardship than expected but I'm sure you will make whatever adjustments are needed.. .. Love that dog !! He always looks like he's smiling !! And why not ? He knows he's loved ... Look forward to adventures as they come ,, put your attention and focus where it's most needed.....but know your fans and friends of the outback are here for you .... a little time on a trail or short paddle can be the best therapy one can ask for.. ..... Stay Safe and God Bless .....

All the best to you. Sorry for whatever changes are bothering you. I am glad you are continuing to make the videos. Always enjoy watching your adventures. Keep on keeping on.

Just remember you're amazing.

Someone once said: Good things fall apart so better things can fall together

Thanks for sharing your adventures. I worked in Timmins area in the late 80's and I would travel to find lakes to fish and camp at. So peaceful and innocent. Thanks for bringing back those memories. I too have been battling changes in my life recently. Stay strong. Always remember today is the first day of the rest of your life.

As an old fella, I suspect what your hard times are. Hang tough, and keep the videos coming, we all love them. Oh, and take care of that sneeze, people get nervous of them nowadays. Take care of yourself. 😷

Keep saying “Out.” Lol. Sincerely from you’re fans in the US

Careena, I am not one to make assumptions about anything in life, but I have a feeling and made some observations that lead me to my own conclusions. I will not be so arrogant as to access those thoughts here in public, but I believe I know what has taken place in your life. You will always have your devoted followers here Alexa and with your KZfaq family , God and the love of both you will get through this. If character is any indication about your future...well it is a bright one. Take your time we are not going anywhere. You have our unwavering love and respect. You are a Beautiful and talented independent woman whose future is bright. Sometimes we just have to go it alone and look for that next great and unexpected adventure. I told you earlier this year that I have a life quotes book coming out in the Spring and I found this quote that I wrote for myself several years back and hope you find some peace and courage in it. Carry on Careena and always know that with no strings or conditions you can message me for the support you may need on bad days going forward. You are truly loved my friend! Character is most revealed when we are at our worst moments in life but we push forward anyway! Quote: Fate is an unknown journey into the yet to be discovered destiny of each of our hearts. A journey which starts with the belief that if we hang on to the one thing that compels us to seek what we believe is our providence or predestination, that life will somehow find that undiscovered adventure that was preordained from the moment of our conception and that which we seek will ultimately find us. Believe in "Divine Providence" and that life is not scripted or prescribed by man but instead by forces that are beyond our control. If we look closely or pay attention to what the heart feels, we will find the glorious intervention we call fate… a manifestation conceived as omnisciently directing the universe and the affairs of humankind with wise benevolence. ~ George Wheeler

You're so creative with camera placements. All that setup, then walk-throughs, then walk backs. I couldn't do it. I dunked my camcorder in the lake, low bridge - short story. Dried it out - still works!

Sorry to hear about your troubles. You are a nice young lady. Please keep up the great videos. You are an encouragement to women. ♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. Henry David Thoreau

from malaysia, keep it up alexis we with u

19:33 -- God bless you!!! And just in general ... God bless you!! Thanks as always for awesome content and I'm really glad to see you and the Grizz-ster out there doing what you love even if times aren't the best for you! You got 96,700+ folks out here cheering loudly for you!!!

Bless you! ( For the sneezing) let's say 2020 is pretty much the year everyone wants to forget! Hang in there! It's finally almost over!(it went slow and fast at the same time, really weird...) Keep on doing what you enjoy! (And we'll continue to watch!)

Such a beautiful part of the world you live in

Well, a shiny object previously welded to one's left hand is now gone. It's pretty clear what happened. I don't believe in "thoughts and prayers", but I do believe in your resiliency as a strong-willed woman. Keep the vids coming! We'll be here to support.

Loving your videos, you are not just sharing your fun with friends / family, you are sharing your fun and adventures with 169,000 KZfaq subscribers around the world, kudos to you 👍

Thank you for bringing us along on this trip! New beginnings allow for mistakes to be left behind. Take care of yourself and your baby. We'll be here for you.

Heyy Happy sunday From Liverpool Uk England Love The Latst Vlog Brilliant Hugs Tc Xxx

Good looking solid woman with a backbone doing things on her own, what's not to like....

I've been anxiously awaiting the next video. You never disappoint. I wont make any assumptions on what troubles your having but i will just say this, may all that has been reduced to noise within you, become music again. Wishing you safe travels and give Grizz an ear scratch for me.

What a Cadillac of a canoe! I love the wooden paddle also! Your equipment is so beautiful! Another great video! We missed you.

Wow... Follow and Cheers From Thailand😍😊

In a week I move 7 hours NE (just outside of Algonquin Park) . My current city has been killed by politicians and crack heads.

Hi Careena, sorry to hear that you've been struggling with things recently, hope you are feeling better and glad to see you back out doing what you enjoy. All the best, Matt 🙂

Alexis, I've been there twice with the major change. Hang in for the next couple of months. You can't control the ups and downs, it's just going to happen. One day you'll awake and it will be a whole new world and mindset. Stay active, stay busy. I thank you for all of your efforts in bringing us along. You are an inspiration!

At least it was a workout 🏋️‍♀️ imagine if you couldn’t find where u put in! It’s happened to me 😱

It is not your fault, no one is at fault. Sometimes couples grow apart. Don't focus on woulda, coulda, shoulda. Hockey player's have short memories, because they need to focus on their next shift. So focus on your plans, things you can control.

Looking forward to seeing future videos. Sometimes Nature throws us curves. You're a survivor!

Everyone has bad days, it makes the good days so much better! Keep smiling and making your great videos. Thank you for sharing, cheers!

If not for the rocks in it’s bed the stream would have no song. Keep your head up and keep going forward.

There's nothing like being out in God's country ♥️🏕️

I'm the first one who making a Bushcraft camp adventure video here in Philippines.. I love spending time at forest.. that's why I like camping video

I can understand some of what you're going through, as I've been down that road before. Don't quit, keep your head up. Everything happens for a reason even if we don't agree/understand it. It took me years to finally see what I went through as a good thing. Keep your head up and take those falls as they come, they prove you're still alive. You and Grizz are going to have some great times! Cheers, God bless and don't forget to smile!

And to think a man could just let that type of woman walk .... smh

So enjoyable. It's like we all take that journey together. Genuine adventures with no phony content or fluff...

Perseverance and hard work paid off, as it always does. You’re one tough gal who keeps jumping whatever hurdles are on your path and meant to test your abilities. Thanks for the inspiration 👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

One of the things I like about your videos is that you show the struggles of being outside and not just the high points. Keep it up and thanks for the content.

You are a true inspiration to women everywhere...😊 . Congratulations on finding that beautiful lake . Fall and Spring are my 2 favorite seasons.

Love your channel! You are a strong, resilient individual and a great role model for your daughter! Keep up the good work and keep reaching for your goals, everything will work out how it’s supposed to💖

Two years ago, I had a moment similar to the one you had in this video - except it was on Happy Isle Lake in Algonquin. Sometimes, being out there alone gives us time to feel things more acutely than we would with our modern distractions. However, in feeling it, we come to terms; and, in coming to terms, we begin to move on. They say that when one door closes, another opens. I wish you (and Griz!) the best of luck as you work through your troubles.

Hope all is well with you and Grizz. I certainly can't wait to see what you bring next. I'm sorry your going through a rough spot but mother nature always brings healing to those who enjoy her. A beautiful spirit such as yourself is a dream come true for a lot of people.

Welcome back Careena... so good to see you and Grizz back in action... looing forward to seeing more... Pretty lake you found there as well... Dennis

Dogs are amazing creatures that help us through some of our darkest hours. You've got an amazing little companion there who loves you unconditionally. Take that love and let it fill your heart. You will come out of this a stronger version of yourself.

Hi Alexis! You wearing that Original Canadian bug shirt made me smile! 2013 I came to Canada for a three month motorcycle trip (which did in fact also include kayak paddling and white water rafting!), from Halifax to Vancouver with a few "small detours" to Yukon, Klondike and Inuvik. Anyway, when I came through immigration the officer there didn't really believe me, that I was just coming for pleasure, but didn't have any intention to work during those three months. So I met two nice ladies from immigration, who wanted to be sure I have no other intentions than exploring your wonderful country. They made me unpack all my gear, which had taken me two days to get packed perfectly. I told them I will be riding a bike from east to west, camping, cycling, kayaking, hiking, whatever was possible with rented equipment. Then they found "The Original Canadian Bug Shirt" I had bought at home in Sweden in the bag, looked at each other, started laughing and one said "You are really going to need that!", made me pack again and wished me all the best for the trip. That thing did the magic to convince them of my adventurous intentions. And girl, what I needed that thing a month later in Ontario! ;-) Wish you a nice winter, enjoy the snow - we don't have any here in Stockholm so far! :-(

Really enjoy your channel, your doing it right girl, take it from a back country guide, been guiding canoe and hunting trips for 30 plus years. Northern Alberta is where I call home now, I came from shield country. Stay strong, get through your challenging time and come out stronger. The back country shows no favorites. A new and loyal follower .

Don't worry Karina. You got this. You can do it. Life changes but you'll always have the strength to keep going. The trick is to keep moving. God bless you, grizz and your kid on your future journey. Don't stress about these videos as long as we see your ok. That's what matters. X :-) take time and go at your own pace. If you feel you need a break, go for it. We are all still here.

Thanks Alexis. Wonderful Video. Thanks For Bringing Us Along. 😊

More videos!!! I am fascinated by the Canadian landscape and history. What an amazing country you get to explore. Thanks for taking your viewer along.

Hope all is well with you Careena. Looking forward to your next adventure. Stay strong. Remember today is the first day of the rest of your life.

I liked the video very much. It actually relaxes me. It settled me down this afternoon due to a little stress I was having. I can’t wait to get back outdoors.

A day in the woods and at the lake is better than a day at the office, even when the day doesn't go as planned. Enjoy your videos.

Ahhh Careena. Been watching your adventures since the beginning of the year. I’m anything but an outdoorsman (occasional camper) but my recent retirement and watching your vids has given me the bug. I sensed you were going through some struggles as your content frequency slowed down after your move. My hope is you achieve whatever outcome you desire. You are lucky in the sense you have created a very large family here, thousands of whom would happily step up with whatever you need. Best wishes, John from Ohio.

Alexis, you are an inspiration! What ever changes you are going through - it will pass and you'll figure it, and will make it work. Don't give up. Sometimes it feels like you are running like a chicken with a head cut off, or Grizz with his zoomies but you are taught. And if you'll ever come to BC - I'll buy you a drink and give you my Jeep to explore.

Hi CA....great to see you & Grizz back!...Everybody has days just like you experienced so just hang on & they will get better!...Take care & May God Bless!

I keep wanting to watch your videos like an episode of Letterkenny. That’s what I appreciates about you Careena!

We’ve all had those days in the woods. Thank you for carrying a FULL sized axe. My Canadian Grandpa never went out without one!

I love this video nice dog nice truck nice canoe and a beautiful lake what else you can ask for .. this video is the real struggle that we all go through when exploring new areas and looking for new places

So sorry to hear the news. I know what it’s like and it’s very hard but we can all see how strong you are. You and Griz make a great team. Thanks for continuing to share your adventures with us.
