    • I stumbled onto lost lakes last fall, as way to get away from working in the ICU after traveling to CA had been closed so long. I became quickly addicted thereafter. His videos are really films so artfully shot and such incredible scenery and, wildlife, fishing, night-sky's, Nlights etc. It's hard to beat Jon's ability to capture N.Ont's beauty.

    • If you're nuts then I guess I am too, love these videos........I'm recently retired, turn 60 next month, and will be able to spend more time in my canoe and doing some tripping as well, just not real remote like Budnik and John, but tripping none the less. My canoe is a Old Town Discovery 169, so portaging is not something I'll be able to really do with the shoulder issues I have.

Watching his trips so makes me want to get out there and do it again. Now that I'm semi retired, I think I'm ready to trade in my FourWinns for a nice 17 royalex and go back to these last areas of pristine wilderness.

Going on adventures and not knowing your destination. And also using lots of tents common sense and your natural surroundings for food shelter (help anyhow) and warmth. Love it!!! I camped almost 30 years now right across from the East Branch of Presque Isle Springs… you must know that it makes quite the trek from upper Wisconsin thru UP into Superior! Love it! Huge Beavers huge dragonflies and a great long sidewinder of a canoe trip to Sandborn Lake! One of my favorite adventures. God Bless you! And may you continue finding more Lost lAkes!!

The northern lights vignette with the music you set it to was truly magical and the shot of your silhouette and the lights reflecting in the water was worthy of a top, professional cinematographer. I could have watched that for hours. Now that the fall season is turning to winter, I suppose you'll be do some deep winter trips again. I enjoy those but not nearly as much as the summer/fall trips that truly show off that unimaginable far north country you guys in Canada are blessed with. Peace, brother.

  • I liked what you read out of the book you were reading about loneliness. It's funny, your videos always provide something that is much needed for me at the time. The video as always, a joy to watch. Wonderful shots. I think you have found your calling...because no one's videos come close to yours. I think the things in the book that you connected with are signs that YOU are on the right path fulfilling your destiny. Thanks once again for taking us along. ❤

  • Jon, you are a brilliant cinematographer and narrator. I see that attitude of gratitude in every video and it’s contagious. My canoe gear is packed away for the winter but your videos will keep me daydreaming and planning for next year. Thank you.

  • Jonathan- you’ve turned your canoe trip vlogs into a unique art form. There isn’t any other channel I know of that compares. It’s peaceful, thoughtful, humorous, and ultimately mesmerizing. And like others have said, somewhat addictive. In a good way. Due to circumstances, I was unable to do a canoe trip this season. But you’ve provided a vicarious substitute, almost as good as the real thing. Paddle on.

    • Can you comment on the OR Rain Jacket you were up wearing? What model? How waterproof is it? Any unique features or lack of features? Looking for a replacement for my older OR. Warm and dry is a big deal!

    • Thanks so much Rod! This is the one I bought for this season to replace my marmot minimalist (mostly I wanted XL instead of L): www.outdoorresearch.com/en-ca/products/mens-foray-ii-jacket-287615?variant=46585603981633 But it was probably the least I've got rained on in any season lol. Seems to work well...good reviews. The pit zips go all the way down, though I'm not sure I really care. I find the front zipper doesn't go up that smoothly on mine. But overall I like OR quite a bit and I buy a lot of their stuff

  • @LostLakes We are loving the new format. Love the wild life videography. Especially the attention to the smaller specimens. Please don’t stumble again carrying you canoe. Heart in mouth moment. Jon when you drank the unfiltered water whilst out in your canoe, I thought about what we do caravanning around Australia. And the idea originally came from your channel. It’s the LifeStraw but mounted in a drink bottle. Much more practical that the original LifeStraw you showed on one or your eps. All the best. Hope you recovery continues well. No commercial affiliation with LifeStraw.

  • Hey man! Been watching your videos for a while now, and ive dropped a couple comments here and there to make suggestions. Im so impressed with your ability to capture the soul of our region in northern ontario so well. If you are ever looking for a good adventure this winter you are always welcome here in northeastern ontario. Spanish forest would fit your channel perfectly. One of the oldest red and white pine forests in the entire world. Cheers!

  • Wow, it’s awesome to see you well and in your happy place! You have been through so much since February, it saddens me to know horrible it must have been. Years ago I had a “Locked Knee”. On crutches for six months. Tried everything and everyone. Then one AM while brushing my teeth, BOOB, this pop, and it was unlocked. Simply a miserable six months! I’m so glad you are well again!!
