Alone in the Wild - A 5 Day Solo Excursion. 

Long Video. In the future, would you prefer the trip to be cut into shorter parts, or do you like this rediculously long format? Thanks folks.

Best youtuber award goes to Joe Robinet

I really respect all the camera work you do. You're on most of these trips alone, but you still take the time to prepare for multiple shots even in the worse conditions. I'd still be a fan if you weren't so thoughtful with your camera work, just wanted to acknowledge you and say your hard work, effort, and attention to detail is not overlooked. Thanks so much for these videos!!

Hey Joe! I was 17 when I watched this video for the first time, you inspired me so much to go out, push myself and go on big trips during these past few years! I'm trying my first 5 day SOLO expedition in the rockies this summer, you're a huge part of why! Thank you!

I watch these videos to help fall asleep so relaxing

storming like hell outside, pajamas, 2 liter of soda, YETI mug full of coffee, pizza ordered, wings too, phone off the hook, cell off, blinds down, lights out, 65 inch 4k with surround sound, recliner, bowls packed, other goodies too lol, and nobody can reach me...just the way I like it, this is gonna be a good day...thank you Joe, this will hold me over till the end of next month, then its time to go 10 hours north to the U.P and get me some muskie action!

"I stopped at this campsite, I had a glorious poop.." Thanks for that, Joe.

Anyone watching these vids to get through lockdown ahah these vids are sick mind 👍🏻

Bro....and i say Bro with the most sincerity...you are the man even if you don't know it! I have watched this video more than once and your determination is beyond commendable. Side note i suffer from major anxiety and it limits me in my travels but your videos take me to many places i would otherwise not able to visit at this time in my life. just want to say thank you from my heart and i appreciate you BRO! #TEAMROBINET

This was so good to watch, RU-vid is filled with garbage these days but sometimes you find really good channels like yours, i think i'm gonna binge watch all your long video's, keep it up!

Joe uploads a 2 hour vid and im like well rip the next 2 hours of my night

Shot of Jack for every time Joe says “portage”

Hey brother Joe just came across your channel again, was looking through long adventures so here i am , much love an maximum respect everyone from UK 🇬🇧 👍 ❤🙏

I love watching Bear Grylls but this is a thousand times better. Keep doing this Joe. You are awesome man 🚣🚣🚣🚣

I took a shot every time Joe said portage, I died 2 minutes in

I couldn’t stop smiling when that bird kept on singing his tune back to him

Hi Joe, love your videos. The bird calling at time 27:40 is the White Throated Sparrow. It’s also one of my favourites when I’m canoeing in Algonquin.

Dude getting baked and watching these is like so relaxing. Love what your doing man keep it up :D

I just got off work grabbed a beer sat down and went on RU-vid to see that Joe Robinet uploaded a video, thanks brother cheers.

Thank you for encouraging us all to get out. Little by little I am saving and buying my equipment. You are such an inspiration to me you must know how important you are to us all. Bless you and your sweet family. Bless your channel

Joe is gonna be a back in my day kinda guy.

well, this is way more interesting than the vast majority of movies I've seen in a cinema in the past decade. Salut to you Joe !

Keep up with the long videos

When I cant turn off the thoughts in the middle of the night...I sleep on the couch and put on your videos and Im on an adventure...It works every time. Thank you for doing what yo do...

I've paddled across lakes and up and down rivers. Spent days in the woods. But I couldn't have done what you did in this video in my best days. Respect!

Martin here. A pleasure meeting you, Joe. Your humble manner in person and on video is refreshing. That was a close call on the first swollen swift between Burntroot and Longer! I spent 8 more days getting back up to the Magnetewan Access via McIntosh Marsh and Lake, Timberwolf, and Misty. I'd done a bicycle shuttle between Tim R. and Mag. access points for ease of finishing. I'll remember this trip for its weather. Good luck with your films, Joe!

I think I’ve just about watched every video you’ve put out … I felt this one like no other. Probably my favorite just because of the challenge… I had a backpacking trip that I came out of freezing wet and hungry and this video brought me back to it. Great video … looked rough but you defeated it! Thanks Joe

I'm not crying I swear. Leo, this is amazing. I truly cannot wait to watch the adventures this boat goes on.

That guy was an A hole that hit you, probably bashes his wife and kids, you don"t need it around you, you doing the right thing moving on, you have to protect your family. Cheers.

Not only is this video *not* too long, but I've watched it twice now.

Being stuck in lockdown I suddenly had the idea to check out some of Joes older videos. Glad I did 😂 feel less isolated and can imagine I’m out there too! ❤️ from the UK 🇬🇧

I've probably watched this video 4 or 5 times since you posted it. It has got to be one of my all time favorites! Nice work, Joe! Stay well.

Joe... just wanted to take a second to say You're a legend that is all

From a TEN year veteran in the Marines you stayed in their and kept your spirits up. Just look at this way, it was a small test of victory. I like this video. Human endurance will sometimes amaze you depending on how hard you push yourself. It just makes more of a man out of you. Being in the Marines for ten years and getting into the down dirty long haul on our 22 mile humps with a 80 pound or more on your back, makes a man really reach down within and grin and bear the pain of the body just saying I'm not giving up hear not until I drop flat on my face with no life in me. Its called the human spirit, the instinct to survive. That's good video. You gave the subscribers a bit of experience of a mental lesson of the human ability to push it self to the limit when it comes to surviving in the wild. 10 Thumbs up on this one. I watch your videos all the time. Awesome!!

When joe said “I got a bunch of smoke in my eye too HHHHHHHHNNNNUHHHHHH” I felt that

After the snow melts, the worlds most amazing country appears!

Joe a quick tip here to keep water spots off the GoPro......I recently returned from Hawaii and the surfers there gave me this trick. They apply surfboard wax to the lens of their GoPros while surfing... then remove it, apply it again then remove it. The residue keeps water sliding right off with no water spots. Hope this helps.

#JOE----THE MOVIE COMING TO A THEATER NEAR YOU! You are our fav bushcrafter!! Hubby and I loved it! We watch all your stuff together. Better than TV any day! You are the real deal!

Joe, I love it. You are the man. Bringing me memories. Back in the mid 70's, me and 4 pals (Chuck, Barry, Harry, and Steve) all in our mid to late 20's. Hiking thru the woods, muddy fields, and all. Me the biggest (183cm, 90kg or 6'0", 200 lbs) was the pack mule for the bunch. Hunting and fishing was the end goal but the whole experience was boss. Thinking back, these are my fondest memories. We were together 3 yrs then scattered with the winds.

Joe dont change a thing, i have been binging since i found you, i feel like i am camping all day while i watch, except the traffic outside, i forgot to like all that i watched, but I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS, and i have watched at least 15 so far, i havent watched anything but your channel at all in fact! :)

Better than any Hollywood movie garbage......long format!

I can not say that I know so much English. But Im really enjoying when I was watching you. You are perfect man! And say "Hi" from Turkey!

"Person" was gracious of you. I'd have said "I have a Neighbor. Let's call him "Asswipe McDaughter's-A-Skank". Good on you for standing up for your wife and Kids, Joe. Takes a real man to do that, and honestly you showed restraint that you had all the reason in the world not to show. I don't think a single person here would have bat an eye (Oh god I'm so sorry. Unintentional pun) if you'd laid them out on the ground and had your dog eat the body. Lol.

i knoiw this is old, but kudos to you joe for keeping your cool.

I started watching this & just couldn't put it down, now it's after 1am. Thanks for the ride Joe.

Hi Joe loven the video so far I'm at 27:48. The bird is a WHITE -THROATED SPARROW, his song is Oh -sweet-Canada-Canada-Canada!

Am i the only one who saw how long the video is and paused it , amd grabed hella snacks n drinks to watch in peace ??!?

Second time watching this. This is one of the best videos on RU-vid

Drinking game: Take a shot every time he says Portage. If you make it to the end of the video, you aren't mortal

LOOOOLL!!!! - "I was sooo startled."

Enjoyed video together with my wife and daughter. Take it from me : “person” always looses along the line.

Hey Joe, I started watching your videos a few months ago and I'm hooked. You're doing it right, the camera work, the communication, and the knowledge you share. I come home from work and after the family's settled in I relax with a video. Thanks man. Keep up the good work

I love this video so much. We need more of this for sure. So interesting and better than tv. Thanks a lot!

I saw an episode where I believe you were reading the Bible to your daughter. The way you handled that bat situation was admirable. This is why my kids are allowed to watch your videos! Thanks Joe, best of luck on your move

Love the long format. Relaxing and always enjoyable.

I've watched this video twice now once when it came out and now almost a year later. Seriously you are one of my favourite people to watch on RU-vid and make me feel all the emotions right along with you.

Love the long videos HATE the long wait in between videos keep up the good work buddy 👍🏻

I think this is your best video yet. There's actually some TENSION in the story... but I think you quit a bit too fast when your primary plan doesn't work out. If you had the time, you should have just chilled at the last campsite for an extra day to "heal and enjoy yourself", and not just push, push, push and end up just wanting to get out of there.

Thank you Joe for taking us along. I really enjoy your videos. It’s something I’ve been wanting to do. You are amazing. God bless.

Joe, you are absolutely amazing! Thank you for the awesome information! Every trip is about learning and persevering!

This is the real deal. Nice work keeping the cameras going through the tough times!

The bird at 27:30 is a White-Throated Sparrow.

Man big respect man, the way you handled that situation is amazing

Hey Joe, I've been watching your videos every night over the last 3-4 weeks (during the Coronavirus lockdown). Great way to take your mind off things and learn about bushcraft, canoeing, and in this video...facing adversity. Very rewarding. I'll bet you look back at this trip as something to be proud of. Great videos...all of them. Thanks pal.

Trout Fishing 101 from my Alaskan Hermit Friend: Walk Silently to the Stream (no heavy footfalls) to a spot just just below a rapids. Don't ever skyline yourself. Pick a spot where they won't easily see you to cast from. If they see or hear you they will hide until after you are gone. Cast into the bottom edge of the rapids. Then they won't see the lure hit the water and get spooked. DO NOT TALK. At least until you catch all the fish you want. Trout are very easy to spook, and will hide at the slightest provocation. Anything out of the ordinary, they run and hide. If you drift your lure out of the rapids they will think "Food!". That is why they sit at the bottom of the rapids waiting for something to drift down to snap up. Good Luck.

bravo Joe! well done lol it took me 3 days to watch it all but well done buddy.

Joe: *Slowly paddles away from land in his canoe* Me: "Is he leaving his camera behind?"

I am rewatching this video. I remember your person's story. But listening to it again, oh my. Some people are so mean. I ran into a horrible person last fall on a highway trip and managed to meet up and have this person do road rage on me. How horrible some people can be. I know you did move and I am so happy, as I feel so close to you and your family.

I like the way you edit your videos. Makes them fun to watch. The longer videos helps the viewer to feel the experiences you are having and be part of your adventure.

Joe. That bird calling back to you was the most pimp shit my little city boy self has ever seen.

Love the feeling of all the warm layers under rain gear.

What a great video. Love watching your videos. They are fun to watch. I have watched other bush crafters, but yours and Dougs are best by far. One of my favorite RU-vid channels to watch!

These so called “explorers” on RU-vid don’t know what they’re talking about hahah you’re the real deal

I am confused. I have been watching all his videos since I found him 2-3 days ago. Love his content. Whats with the dislikes? I am confused as to what there is to Dislike? XD Twats! Keep making these awesome vids!

Getting old but still my fav video from you. Got me back into outdoor life. Keep 'em coming!

Honestly I fall asleep sometimes when I watch your videos, so relaxing

I'm imagining someone on the shore just watching you cruise past talking to yourself and not realising there's a camera... I would love to see that perspective haha

Awesome ! Better than anything on tv.

Joe, you are amazing and so informative in your videos.. i love to watch.. im living vicariously through you!!! thank you!

Hi Joe....just saw your video...inspirational stuff...well done for completing the trip but above all, thank you so much for recording it and allowing the world to share the trip with you....

Great video Joe, I just finished a planed 10 day trip from Tim to Cedar lake, we shortened the trim to 7 days I've done this rout 10 years now and this was the least predictive fishing we ever had the water is so high and fast. We started in rain for 2 day then snow for 3 days finished with some sun. We ran out of food because we always count on the trout :( so we pushed to get out early. We cut a channel around that log jam. and i saw half a paddle stuck in the ground on the 356 spring camp portage looks just like yours glade to see it wasn't

Man, youre one hell of a person, give you props, sorry about the black eye, don't feel bad, have that out here in kentucky and i live in the middle of no where and still see it at times. Wish i could come up there and do what you do.

I'm 71 yr. old retired teacher...a grandmother too. I could just imagine the details you do in preparation to your trip plus he valuable videos. Thanks a lot. You make me look forward to your trip videos !

I love the long formats. I'm a huge fanatic of survival journeys.. Thanks for the great vlogs

Joe , back in the 70s, and 80s I use to do this. We went to Quebec. I miss doing this so much.. I live in Florida now.. I envy you so much. This brings back so many great me memories with my brothers who are both gone now. Thank you so much.

your eyes got so big when you took your first bite of trout! so cute.

Hey Joe, I really like your vids I think I've been binge watching for about 3 days and your amazing vids just keep coming. Great job keep it up!

The way you handled that high intensity situation is amazing and I commend you. As a daughter in risky situations, you inspire such great protective and intelligent qualities I see in my own father. I wish the best for your family and friends.

The fact that you go fishing has just made my month 👊🏻 I'm coming to see you next year bro

Your neighbor needs to be locked up in jail!

sometimes, i dream about camping and the relaxation it brings. sometimes, i watch this and it shows me what camping can also be.

Your videos are fantastic. I'm retired and I love relaxing at night watching your trips. Keep up the great work!

I am constantly amazed at the amount of drive and motivation you have to go on these trips, go through the trouble of filming everything so well, then editing the videos! A very admirable quality!

The black eye story sucks. You handled it well. Bless you bud.

I started watching your videos a few weeks ago and today decided to subscribe. Keep the fun times comin!!!

Is it just me who watches him in bed to fall asleep to it’s just really relaxing fsr 🤷‍♂️

Hi Joe. I know it sucks you got hit and all but sometimes a black eye is worth setting up change and making your life so much better in the end. I know your frustration and very glad to see that your family has moved and you are winning my friend. You have a gorgeous new home! Continued prayers for Scout. Keep up the good work.

What an Adventure! Damn... I was actually holding my breath a few times! Glad you're OK...Great Vid Joe...keep em coming!

Awesome adventure, keeping me sane during lockdown.

I’m so high🤣this is awesome love your channel
