Four Day Solo Canoe Trip with my Dog and a Nasty Cold 

I am thrilled to have found your channel again!! My husband was a huge Maddy the Goose fan. ~12-13 yrs ago we were getting into camping and we watched your videos and I think he even got weekly emails. Unfortunately I lost my husband almost 6 yrs ago. But this morning I got this weird craving to make bannock for our daughter. It took me some time to remember the Maddy the Goose name but I did and here you are (with a new companion) and I got the Bannock made. Your recipe is the only one I have ever used! Can't wait to catch up on what I have missed out on. And just maybe you will inspire me to gear up and start with some car camping to get myself back into and get my daughter out there. She was extremely young when my husband got sick so I haven't camped in about 10yrs! Wow crazy to actually realize it's been that long. Well thanks for bringing a smile to my face and some fond memories of my hubby and I at the PC monitor watching the newest video as they came out. Cheers!

Hey Troy... if you ready this just let it be known that I am missing your content... hope you post more in the near future... Dennis, Canoehound Adventures

Pleasant surprise seeing you back! Bravo.

Glad to you your presence on RU-vid after such a long hiatus. But I really hope you will post new content We are all due ! Thanks Troy Jeffrey

Troy!!! I thought you fell off the face of the earth. GREAT to see you back...

Love your videos. Wish you would post more. All the best to you and your family.

I'm sooooooo excited to see you and Toby back on RU-vid! Can't wait to see your adventure!

Wow, then I realize its been years that i've been watching you

Awesome to see the "original canoe" trekker back! Welcome home Maddy!

Hey, just doing a check up to make sure everything is going well. Hope to see some more videos in the future. Your dehydrated meals inspired me to do my own! Thx

Yaaaayyyyyy! So happy to see your new video in my feed! :)

Great to see you making new content again. Amazing video quality too. I almost feel like I'm out there!

Where is this? I fell head over heels with Algonquin after watching some of your older videos. Now we go back every year or so. Thanks, and welcome back.

Dear Troy, thank you for your years of content. I’ve been one of those people watching ‘from the shadows’ from the very early days, as you were one of the first RU-vid trippers, and an invaluable resource and inspiration, particularly in my early days soloing. I have finally entered into the world of social media, and so I now offer many heartfelt thanks 🙏

Woo hoo! Thnx for another great vid.

great seeing you again. I'm so excited

I am late to the party but I just want to say I'm really pleased to see you back at it. Your trips years ago were the first such trips that I found online to watch. I've often searched for any new content from you. Glad you're well and doin your thing some more. Thank you. Take it easy.

I hope you and maddy are okay! Loved watching your videos in my younger days and was just looking into my favorite videos I had saved and this is one! Y’all inspired me back then to get out their and enjoy what nature has and with what’s going on now a days I’m glad I have almost everyday!

Looks like a great area to camp at.

Great to see you again...looking forward to watching this one!

So great to see you back! Very exciting!

awsum! Troy and Toby! just what I needed... thanx bud....going to kick back and enjoy this!

always worth the wait!

Thanks always enjoy your videos!

Troy! I'm super amped you and the pup released another vid. I see life is treating you great (minus the horrid cold). Keep it up!

Been with you for years ! Always awesome to see a new adventure with you and Toby ! You were and still are a large reason why I got involved with canoe camping ! Thanks for everything man ! Peace ✌️

Welcome back!

So glad to see you back Troy

REALLY GOOD to see you back.

Very nice video. It’s great to see a new video post from you. Looks like a nice trip!

Thanks Troy. I'm definitely looking forward to the Sawyer Squeeze mods!

Was just watching a couple of your older trips last night , great to see a new one !

Great to see you back Troy. Great video!

Thanks for taking us along. Glad you and Toby are back.

Full length! Nice and thank you.

Love your videos and adventures. It’s just like being there.

Nice to see you again. Safe travels.

Glad to have you back!

Hi Troy. So nice to see you guys out in the wilderness and at it again. Looks like you had a wonderful trip. There was a bit of rain but it’s nice to see you not having torrential downpours for days at a time. I will have to check your channel and make sure I haven’t missed anything. Hope you have more coming up but it’s nice to see you and Toby having some fun. Have a great summer. 👍🏻🏕

Glad to see a new video. I’ve missed you!

"Wearing glasses sucks! Reading glasses, 'cause I can't read shit without them....Man, it's a pain in the ass!" LOL So agree, I feel your misery hahaha. Damn eyes anyway!

Alright Troy! Great to see another trip.

Your original videos with Maddy were what got me thinking about getting a dog to go hiking and camping with me. Now, years later, I finally pulled the trigger and got a Great Pyrenees puppy. So glad to see you and Toby out on the water again!

I hope you have an opportunity to get out there. Please share it with us if you do. You do a great job of presenting your travels. I keep checking.

I do so like your video

Good to see you back at it!!!

Great to see you again!

Hey Troy!!! Glad to see you’re back!!!

You've made my Monday Troy!

Great to see you again Troy! I haven't watched for a while as I transitioned to retirement. Close to Algonquin now!

Awesome video. Thanks for taking us along. :-)

Glad you posted mate ...been here since the start and thanks for being my inspiration to get out there :D

So Nice to see a new video from you! Best wishes from sweden

YES TROY!! I absolutely love your videos. Truly inspiring stuff you post and always so informative. Love the way you put these together. Gotta say they are the best on the internet hands down when it comes to portaging in Algonquin. Getting settled in to watch this one and not even worried about the audio, makes it more authentic. ;) Please keep them coming!!

Miss seeing your video's.

Hey Troy. I always enjoy your videos and learn lots from them. Thanks for sharing! Have you ever tried wearing submersible Gore-Tex socks over wool socks, all inside quick-drain shoes/boots? I have had pretty good luck with this combination myself. I don't have to worry about getting my feet wet on muddy portages or when getting in/out of the boat ... just simply walk right through the mud/water. I hope to see more of your and Toby's adventures! Thanks again!

I always love these videos. Glad to see you post again. Too bad about the audio. I will enjoy it anyways

I was just thinking I haven't seen a video from you in a long time then I get a notification. Great to see you back

Welcome back!!

Great video man love the dog hope you do more videos really good feel to them very peaceful vibe

Wow, those 3D parts you designed are fantastic ! Nicely done ! Great system man ! Give Toby a hug ! Cheers !

I've been really enjoying your videos. We were in AP May 20 -23rd. Next one is August 23. Cheers!

Took me 2 weeks to remember the channel name... Hope all is well and you post soon.

Always a surprise when you return to youtube. Hope you return more often.

Wooo Hooo!!! Great to see your work! Thanks! I even let all the ads run its course ;D

Hey! Welcome back!!

Welcome Back!!

What a funny video. 33.41 "As I'm drying my shoes, as I always do, I burnt the shit out of this one. Damn it!." You keep me laughing.

welcome back

Your back!!!! Thumbs up within 7 seconds of vid.

great to see a new vid from you man. thanks for the gear reviews too...some things i've been considering. and fun fact: the french word for "maple" is "erable" :)

Wow, looked like a challenging trip! Curious if you've ever considered switching to a smaller pack canoe. I'd think that it would be easier to maneuver and also much lighter to portage. Too bad about the audio issues, that is frustrating after the fact since there is no way to go back in and reshoot! I've been on kiosk once and now I want to visit again. Thanks!

Please post the links for the water filter when you get a chance! Those parts look great

first time I am seeing a bridge in this run

What a treat to see another video from you pop up in my inbox. Another great watch Troy. Have you tried using your saw spine to light your fire steel ? I haven't personally done it but have seen videos of others doing it . Thanks for bringing is along.

You mentioned a link to your risotto recipe, is that somewhere else? Another great trip vid Troy, nice to see you put one out, they are very enjoyable & I always pick up a trick or two.

where are you? when are you coming back? we all miss your videos! hope all is well.

Great to see you posting again Troy. I have followed you since the beginning and always enjoyed your trips and videos. What hammock and underquilt is that? Is it a Hennessy? How do you like it. I’m debating trying a hammock for solo trips. Cheers!

Troy good to see you again in your canoe but it should be Maddy hehe

Another great trip video. So glad to join you again!

Troy, where are you? I had just found you and enjoyed your videos when you disappeared. Are you and yours ok?

Hey Troy glad to have you back is there a problem with the Audio or is it on my side having a hard time hearing you awesome video though hope to see more 👍

Glad to see your back. Nice video. I'm heading to Algonquion in 3 weeks via Magnetawan. What type of canoe do you use. It looks like a Souris River?

Hi there. Are you still making videos? I haven’t seen any lately. This one is the most current one I’ve seen. You don’t need to respond if you do t want to. Just wanted to say hello and hope all is well with you. Hopefully this is just a break and I will be watching out for a new video sometime in the future. Be well and stay safe. Thank you for your previous videos. They were informative and interesting to watch. Thanks again. ATzb!

Hey Troy. Great to see you and Toby again. Great trip! I'm definitely interested in those water filter parts. What size oaks pot were you using and did your ikea stove stand fit outside of it for transport? Nate

Hi Troy. Great to see you back. What were you filming with and what were the issues?

Wonderful video! I've got my equipment down to 65lbs now thanks to the Swift 22lbs solo pack canoe -I can practically run the portages! Is Maddy still with you?

Happy new year Troy! I know it's been a while since you uploaded a video but will you be doing any more in 2022? Also are you on Instagram? I love your content! Thanks. :)

Any more videos coming this year😜

Will you be doing any trips this year?

Hey Troy, thanks for sharing your trip! I assume your video equipment has changed? I noticed the audio isnt as good/clear and there is a constant annoying hum from the recording device. (Likely the autofocus motor as it constantly adjusts.) Just thought I'd let you know, as I struggled to hear what you are saying even with the volume at max. Hope you can sort that out. Cheers

Hi Troy love your videos. I am going on a trip and want to dehydrate my food how long after it dehydrates do I have to use it by? Also do I freeze dry it and then put it in the freezer before I go?

What month were you up there? I hope to be paddling in Georgian Bay in a few weeks, cant wait to get back there. If you decide to go with a one man tent, take a look at the pariah breeze mesh tent. I switched over from a mec volt tent and love it. It has no fly, but i bring my siltarp 2 and put the tent under it if it looks like rain. It allows you to still get outside your tent (under the tarp) to cook or just hang out if it rains. Cheers and hope to see more vids.

It's time for another video! Please?

Very nice video, but the volume of the sound track was not loud enough no matter what adjustments I made.

I miss you, hope all is well.

Hi, where was this trip filmed? thank

Where ya bin?

What model of camera are you using?

Do you have the 3d links?
