A Powerful 7 Day Camping Journey to the Wild Coast of Superior 

No way you don’t have 100k subs minimum. Your videos are such an amazing experience.

Maxim, I so enjoyed watching this video! I watched Zander's last week and now yours. You each have your own style and I enjoy both! I especially enjoy your bird shots and footage!

I enjoyed Xander's video of this same trip, and I'm totally into seeing this adventure from your unique perspective.

Everyone read and like: Max can you do a behind the scene video showing what goes into preparation, setting up cameras, bloopers and over all stuff you guys have to deal with like wearing wet shoe all day, food preparation and etc... ❗If anyone also like to see this click like ❤️ so Max knows how many of us want to watch it.

Videography is excellent! I really like the way you ‘tell the story’…..candid, real stuff….and I love the shots and chit chat around the campfire. Great stuff Max!

Great white watering!! I love your videos, always a great adventure and your eye for the beauty of nature in your environment and your being able to bring it to all of us for relaxation and enjoyment. Dehydration works great, takes up less space and still tastes great!!! Till your next adventure Max, take care my friend and keep the videos coming!!! Later

Imagine waking up to a new notification: Max Budnick uploaded new video... Time? 1:54:51 As fast a possible make a coffee some toast and click play. Yep.. It's going to be a good day! Thanks Max keep up the adventure!

♥ I loved watching this beautiful video!! ♥ Scared me when you fell 😬 Your photography is lovely... There is nothing more beautiful than a waterfall!! Peace and blessings ♥ 🙏

Ive been watching everyones vids of this trip,they have been great. But totally love how u start out with the crazy Boat Bomb almost took out poor Xander! love Xandar , and love all u guys ! great fun, love from Michigan

What an amazing trip! Those portages looked absolutely grueling. Even so, your video made me want to get out canoe tripping more badly than ever. Stunning video, Max! Thanks for taking us along (and for naming the cute little birdies).

Great images. Love that you’re paying attention to (and giving an ID) for the warblers. I enjoy your short video “portraits” of water, plants and people. Respects the place and sets a context for the action.

This was exciting to watch. You guys all did great. I'm not even a canoer, my son turned me on to all these Backcountry trips. He's into them. But I do enjoy watching them. I love being in nature so it's fun to watch these. I am however a huge bird nerd, and I absolutely love the bird clips you add to your videos. Lol! You have some great skills videoing them. Warblers are tricky too. They are so quick and so small. It's a challenge all on its own to get a good shot. 😊

Scenery, adventure, editing, commentary, company, Beautiful!👀

♥ I pray everything is OK with your eye. 🙏💜🙏

Love it! Watched yours, Xander’s, and Jim’s. All great and very different story telling. Great cinematography!

Excellent video Max ~ loved it & is one of the best we’ve seen.

Magnifique! Amazing! What fun! Watching the videos of this trip so far, has taken me through a gamut of emotions... anticipation, nervousness, happiness, etc. I swear, I could even feel the physical aspects of it. I felt tired, sore, energetic, adrenaline filled, pride from challenges that were accomplished! Thanks for taking us along! What a wonderful group of macho, macho men! 😀👍❤

What an unbelievably amazing journey. You did such a wonderful job capturing and conveying the realism of the nature, danger, fun, adventure, and camaraderie that you experienced along the way. Thank you for taking us along.

I love how you slip in those nature shots, the story telling and soft background music. Premier film making Maxim. Inspirational.

I just drove the Superior circle tour. I love superior! Enjoyed the time in Canada saw my first moose and black bear. What a fun video - great job. Your smile lights up the forest 😊

Love the longer vid. I imagine this full journey was an incredible feat to edit. Great content Maxim.

Another terrific video from one of my favorite RU-vid stars. Outstanding!

Epic. Gonna save this one for tomorrow night.

So I have been practicing mindfulness for many years. You would do great as a guided meditation speaker.

Watched this from both your and Xander's perspectives and enjoyed every second of it.

Maxim thank you for sharing your video. That look like a trip of a lifetime shared among friends.👍 enjoyed the birds with the names. Great photography and drone shots. Eddie hopping with a nice violin and piano music playing it was 👏.

Thanks again Max ..you've some talent with your camera and editing..I've enjoyed every ones adventure..and the birds ...well there is nothing like their live music!..Best wishes to you all.

Excellent thumb mate, well done!

You take some really amazing shots! Take 3.

What an amazing trip!! Can’t thank you enough for sharing.

Wow! A spectacular adventure with an equally spectacular video to showcase it! Glad you challenged yourself a bit, must feel good to say you did rapids, even with a tip or three! As always, stunning natural videography as well! Water, moon, birds, landscape, allows us to see what you see and appreciate all your efforts even more. I also enjoy listening to your reflections about your trip.

The opening shots are spectacular. Fantastic vid thankyou so much for sharing your beautiful country and adventures. Greetings from Aus 💚

This has to be in the top 3 of your best canoe videos. What a great adventure with friends and Xander. BTW having seen all your videos , I have never seen you smile and laugh so much. Pure joy. Good for you brother

I really liked your version of this trip the best Max!

I have thoroughly enjoyed watching everyone's unique perspective of this incredible adventure. Fully enjoyed this. Thank you!

You could have stuffed the potatoes in the muffler instead of the foil paper. Probably would have been done baking by the time you got to your destination. Beautiful trip for all of you.

Great intro. Looking forward to watching.

Classic Xander moment where he jinx his own misfortune. A certified Xander moment in fact. I get the feeling he’s done this before…perhaps in his childhood.

(1:15:47) That drone shot of Dennison falls was spectacular 👌

T-Formex for the win! So glad we were able to help you out with the canoe man you absolutely nailed the trip. Great job documenting everything you’ve got me itching to get out there!

Another great video Maxim, nice work

Thanks Max, was hanging for this since Xander's upload. Ya bunch of legends!

I watched your brothers video on this and I normally don't watch the same trips on different channels but this perspective was definitely worth it. I also love it when you show the animals and put their names on the screen. Here in Belgium we don't have that many different bird species. Anyway, great vid as always!

I am really enjoying the different versions of this epic trip. Back in the day we joined some beer cans together to fix the hole in our muffler pipe. We must have drove like that for another couple months before getting a new one. This was a great adventure with some bush worthy guys.Thanks to all of you for taking us along.

Thanks!

The pain for no fish...I could never..

Beautiful video, well filmed!

I just did algonquin, Big Trout loop. Used the Merlin App really for the first true attempt. So many birds in there right now and picked up that Northern Parula on the app but never saw it. Really wanted to. That app is amazing in bug season....so many warblers, so many everything!! 5 AM in June is like a symphony, and nobody is in there. Too old for this trip though, but go get it!!!

56:55 stunning drone footage❤️

Max! Great job with this. The footage is top notch, you really are mastering your craft similar to Jontario. The bird footage with the info is a real nice touch. You mention the difference between doing a group trip vs going solo. I really relate to that having done both kinds for many years. Now, my favorite trip is what I call a hybrid. I’ll be solo with my dog and at some point rendezvous with another paddler or a small group for part of the trip. I’m similar to you in that I enjoy both types of trips but they are very different experiences and you pointed that out on Superior beautifully. I’m really enjoying your videos, thanks for the hard work!

Sick video! New to the channel so I cant wait to binge the old content. I have a question, what drysuit do you use and, does it break while you're off on adventures? If so, what do you fix it with?

Is there will be 5 different movies about this trip, from 5 different youtubers ? EPIC.

Watched Zander’s video last weekend. Same trip with two different perspectives. You guys really torture test your canoes. I could hear my carbon canoe crying in the garage as you guys bounced off rocks and used one as a toboggan. Great video 👍

GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for risking LIFE and To LENS to entertain us. You are really mastering the "Fourth Wall" with the viewer. I felt like I was right there in the excitement, comaraderie, cold smokey air, slippery rocks and stinky people. 🤪 And congratulations on no swearing in the video. 🙄 Wow, you did a lot of great camera work in extremely challenging lighting conditions. You must have been setting up shots constantly. I liked your transition from the moss close up to the drone shot of the tree tops that made me do a double take. Great laughs. I have not done any non-automated photography in a long time, but I bet that if you back away from your close-up objects then zoom in, you will improve your depth of field. Just an idea to experiment with. If leaks or getting chilled continues to be a problem, you could suppliment with a zip-up neoprene-vest , -hood or -gloves. Gloves mught provide some cushion against bangs and abrasions on your knuckles. I use thin peel and stick neoprene pads applied around my kayak paddle. For a non-slip padded grip. I would be interested in sourcing someting to improve slip resistance on water shoes. Please mention or link in a future video if you find something good. As always, I can't wait for the next video. 👍👍👍

Your channel looks like a lot of fun. I’m following 👍❤️☠️

01:18:41 At this point Xander was spot on!!! my goodness!!! "You stay out of the way just in case it starts barreling down" and then it's happened within a second! wow he was so much aware.

If yr gona use a stick to hang yr pots over an open fire soak yr stick in water that way it won't burn fast.🤔😉

I hope RU-vid income provides Xander a brand new vehicle soon lol

howdy i would like to know what type of canoe you have i really like it

What boats did you guys paddle solo?

Nova Craft woes..... Brutal. Mine is finished after 1.5 seasons, very disappointing.

Love the content but, an upgrade on your filming equipment would knock it out of the park 😊 Seemed very grainy missing the ultimate beauty you're trying to bring to your subscribers. Stay brave and keep surviving...

Sabe Maxim vc é complemente deferente um príncipe pronto!!!!

Conceguiu!!!!

Deus abençoe sempre a todos.

Ho no!!!!❤❤❤Deus.

Asua voz é muito linda!!!

Chegou à Noite

Meu Deus , se rasga todo não matos!!!!

Fantastic...I know it was your great pleasure to bring this adventure to us; trust me, it was mind to view it! Great job, Max.

As someone who watches these types of videos on a big screen TV....THANK YOU SIR for uploading in 4k. And....awesome video

Maxim, add a pound of bacon to your dehydrated beans and you won't even need a paddle. Damn the ozone full speed ahead.

If a major SUV company knew how much fun you crazy Canadians bring us viewers albeit vicariously,they would give you all brand new vehicles. It would be the best advertising dollars they could spend.

Wow! What a great video Max. Beautiful. You captured nature at its finest and most powerful! I was blown away by the physical exertion of all of the guys! And the great teamwork! The Bald Eagle shot was magnificent. Thank you

Hi max what a cracking journey fulfilling and tiresome those portages looked killer man ,hard going as well as filming it all and dealing with obstacles when carrying a canoe defo need to be on top of your game on this trip. The canoe that broke loose due to the lone snapping was a heart stopper for sure glad you all have your wits about you was defo hairy and thankful no one got hurt this was one of the best trips and I’m sure you will agree with great friends and brother thanks for both sharing loved the journey take care and wish you well 👌👍🚣🏻🚣🏻🔥🔥⛺️⛺️❤️

Love all the little birds you highlight along the way

So excited for this one! Loved Xanders video about this trip so I know this is going to be a good one!!😍😍

IMHO, TED gets the ***GOLDEN DOG*** award/trophy….NO spills, NO falls, NO injuries, NO complaints, NO excuses…..all with a badly busted up canoe !!! BRAVO !!!

Great adventure great crew and masterful photography as usual ! Congrats on the new canoe !

Before I watch this video I press the like button and as well as commented 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂because I know it's gonna be a great video🖤 btw it's becoming my favorites channel nowadays 🖤🖤

Thanks for the hard work and the seat by the fireside. Great camaraderie! It's one of the things no one can fake. It's 100 degrees here in Florida and your statement about Superior's clean crisp air almost got me in my Jeep.

That fall looked pretty brutal. Glad you came out on the upside.

I love the sound of water all throughout this video. Last year, I was feeling a lot of anxiety. I couldn't sleep unless the tv was on. I had put yours and Xander's videos on a loop while I slept. Your videos are so comforting. I am truly grateful to have found your channels. ❤ Also, how heavy is your canoe?

Another amazing video. I’ve said it before and will keep saying it, your editing is fantastic. It the same trip I’ve seen twice already) Jim and Xander) but this a most not a repeat but your own video Keep it up ❤️😎

Wow ❤loved every second the first second and third time viewing ❤❤.. epic nature shots .. you are a great narrator what an absolutely nail biting trip you took us on thank you Max.

Whoa, I had to re-watch that crazy rogue canoe at least five times. I'm so glad no one was hurt. :-)

Just finished Xander’s video the other night. Can’t wait to check yours out!

Great Video!! Has been fun watching each one of your versions of this trip...

Thank you for the uplaod! Great adventure folks!

I’m so proud of you for pushing through this and coming out safe and more experienced 😊. Well done 👍. Great video! I almost had to make me a coffee with rum but I had faith that it was going to be okay 👍.

Wow, another awesome video. Like I mentioned before, you have a great eye even though this trip didn't allow much time for creative filming. What an awesome river, but I really feel bad for Eddy...I just hope he had his own tent-lol.😝

Max, thanks for the bird id's. Unexpected treasure of this great video. Good style and sounds of the woods/water!

Love your choice of music. Beautifully curated and love how it doesn’t compete with the visual beauty you’ve captured in your video. Well done sir 👏🏼

Hello, how good these rapids are beautiful forests, the noise of the water relaxes me, what beautiful places and the names of the birds, oh very good 👍🌞🖐️

Just a beautiful river and always fun to watch all you guy's run rapids 👍 I really enjoyed your version of the trip with the high quality of filming & editing with music & bird identification. Great job 👏 👍 thanks so much for sharing this adventure with us ❤

I am loving watching all your different videos on this one Max. What a great crew! So glad you are happy with your new Esquif and your thoughts on being alone vs. with a group certainly resonate. Thanks for the amazing bird (love that you identify them!) and loon footage ❤. I think there needs to be a spot for a travel guitar in the new boat 😉 And may I suggest carrying an eye cup and small bottle of normal saline in your First Aid kit for eye issues such as foreign bodies to flush those out. Small and easy to carry and invaluable no matter where you are. Feeling carefree, quite simply the best and it showed ☺️ Much appreciation Max and hope you will have many more adventures this summer 💜 B

So far I've seen Xander's and Ted's version on this trip.And now this one and every one of them has been really great, You all show different things and you're excited about different parts.I love your footage of been in the water going down the water.It was wonderful. Looks like an amazing trip and it certainly is one of the most amazing rivers.I think you've ever gone down. Thanks so much for all the work you do and for sharing, What a great bunch of guys to travel with. God bless you❤

Those few seconds in the beginning.... and then the music intro. Glad yall made it in one piece! The camping and paddling around the bay at the end...what beautiful country yall have!

This channel is my happy corner 🙏

I look forward to the unexpected shots of pure beauty you are able to find and show us. Thank you!
