My first camping trip in my new canoe! I loaded up the Northstar Trillium for a weekend of comfort, and headed to VT to meet my buddy Craig at the Chittenden Reservoir. Both of us have never been here before. Turned out to be worth the visit! It is a beautiful body of water tucked in the Green Mountains. Have you ever been to the Chittenden Reservoir? How was your experience? Please let us know in the comments.

Excellent! Between yours and Craig's, I was ready to take a nap it was so relaxing. Of course, the bourbon doesn't help. You should rename the channel "Drinking with Canoes", or "Beer and Gear."

The wind did a good job of keeping the flies at bay. I was grateful for that. The loons were awesome, and busy chattering all weekend! It was a great pre season outing. By the time we were leaving Sunday, the place was packed. Cars and people everywhere at the landing. We timed it well because this place must get insane during the summer months.

It is a nice spot. I went up to Lefters. Parking lot was packed, people everywhere, Trash all over the place. I'm talking a lot of trash strewn all about. Even the little fee collector tower was broken into and filled with trash. Broken beer bottles, dirty diapers, it was terrible. I did take a few moments to walk around and check it out. Quite nice, but it was in disarray. Makes me so mad.

Knock on wood, I've never lost my phone, dropped it in water, or left it sitting after a break on the trail and want to keep it that way. Picked up a phone tether from a company called Rogue Fishing Co that clips to a backpacket/life hacket and then goes around your phone. Fits my giant S22 Ultra. Not sure if it would've prevented your phone from taking a swim but neat item that I'm a fan of!

Normally when I am filming in my canoe, the tripod is secured to the thwart. It is a very secure set up. On this particular instance, when I saw Craig on the opposite shore, I packed up my stuff and headed out to meet him. It was very calm at that point, and I knew it was going to be a quick, easy paddle. So I did not secure my tripod. And it all went well until......we got to where we were going, and I got out of my canoe. As i was getting out, my leg hit the phone and in a second it was in a foot of water sitting on the bottom of the lake. Lol. Took me a few seconds to get to it. I can state with confidence the iPhone 14pro max is indeed waterproof in a foot of water for a few seconds. The audio on a few clips was a bit strange for a few seconds afterwards, but it cleared right out. Otherwise, I am impressed. And lucky!

How much total weight do you feel you were hauling between gear and you? I love the idea of the Trillium, seems like a hot rod of a solo tripper, but at 220 lb I've been thinking my own weight plus gear is probably a bit too much...
@ItsGoodintheWoods
@ItsGoodintheWoods Год назад
I had about 65 pounds of gear with me . That puts my load out at about 240 lbs. The canoe handled it very well. At 220, you would be better off with the Northwind solo. The Trillium would be a bit small for you and your gear. I think it has a max weight capacity of about 290 lbs.

Camera gear for this trip was my Iphone and an old Canon point and shoot. I strap my tripod to the canoe thwart using nite ize twist ties. Works pretty well. But I am sure if I ever go over, it would not be enough to prevent me from losing my gear.

Is protective film a thing for those canoes? Like paint protection film or even vinyl wrap for cars .
@ItsGoodintheWoods
@ItsGoodintheWoods Год назад
I havent seen any, but they probably exist. Honestly though, I didn't pay the amount of money that I did on this thing to hide the Carbon weave and make the canoe heavier. This canoe is coated in an epoxy resin, not a gel coat. So making it look new again is quite simple. A light sanding, apply a coat of resin and she's brand new. I'm sure I will recoat the bottom of it a time or two lol
