Hey guys, thanks for tuning in. We're here up on Rain Lake in Algonquin Park.
We just got into our first portage. We did about a six to seven kilometer paddle
from Rain Lake Access to the first portage into Sawyer Lake. So we're gonna do that. We're up here
for four or five days just doing a nice little fall canoe trip. I'm with my buddy Mark. How's it going?
And yeah, so we're gonna get set and do the portage and then continue on with the trip.
Yeah, it's gonna be another windy paddle along the shore I guess.
Alright guys, we're heading on Sawyer Lake now. Heading out to the next portage which will be into Jubilee Lake.
Alright, we're on now. We just finished the portage from Sawyer Lake to Jubilee Lake. So we're on Jubilee
heading into portage to Juan Lake. So we got, I don't know, four or five hundred meter paddle and
then a 400 change meter portage. We'll catch up with you when we're there. So we're gonna go out
and then make a 90 degree to the right. To the right? Into the portage for Juan Lake.
There's the nice little paddle. Hey guys, we're now on Moccasin Lake. It's another short paddle.
Probably 400, 500 meters to portage into Bandit Lake which is where we're going to be camping for
tonight. A lot of short portages and short paddles so I haven't quite filmed as much as I normally would.
It's gonna be nice to get to our site and set up and then just chill finally.
Yeah, it's fine. I mean you don't have to fill it completely or you can. We can top yours up there right?
Water seems fairly clear. It's got the little bit of the little tinge to it. Oh yeah, I drank worse.
Yeah, I think there's like one right on the right corner or left corner up here.
Before it opens up and I think the one's on the side.
Let me look here. Yeah, they're basically a small island or something.
All right guys, we're finally at our site on Bandit Lake. We got here within about four hours
and 45 minutes. We did about 16k. So we're gonna get set up and then give you a tour of the site
and then we're gonna just chill. Get the fire going and dry out my foot. I got a soaker
and then we'll end up getting dinner. So we'll check in with you later.
Some chicken schnitzel on the fire there. We're gonna make chicken parm sandwiches for dinner.
Sun's going down. It won't be long till it's dark. So I'll give you a quick tour.
I'll show you the shitter tomorrow.
So I got a tent back here. It's a nice little spot. Just got my Marmot two-man
catalyst. Shitter's back that way. Food's gonna get hung there. Amazing view from the
fire pit and benches. There's the canoe. So I'll check in with you later when the food's ready
and it'll be time for some whiskey and wine. Arm's almost done. A bun just for a sandwich.
Mark's trying to fish. Not catching anything right.
All right dinner's ready. We got chicken parm sandwiches and red wine.
