Headwaters - Mississippi River (Ep.1) 

Such a well made series!!!! And so underrated!!!

Very cool videos guys! It would be cool to see some mountain biking adventures too.

I grew up in a small town called "Portage". Apparently, the town used to be a crossing point for the Native Americans to carry their canoes from one river to another. Awesome episode sir, so glad you're taking us along these trips.

I remember lots of walking the canoes and portages at the beginning of the trip. Makes me proud that my sister and I were able to do this as kids. Watching your videos *almost* makes me want to do this trip again. Great quality videos and editing!

Way cool graphics in the intro! Love that your mother was there to send you off! Excellent video camera work and great sound. Well worth the wait to see this, very professionally done!

Unique adventure! Thanks for uploading!

I'm sure you guys never saw the movie DELIVERANCE! lol 😁 great episode....on yo episode 2

I remember following this when I was in middle school and I’m so surprised you haven’t blown up yet! Watching it again is a huge throwback, hope you guys are doing well!

I love your videos man. I really hope you one day get a show on TV so more people can see your work

I know this must have been taxing once you hit a few weeks in, but it looks so damn fun! Great work on episode 1 :)

Northern guys you really need to visit the southern wilderness more. It is great i wouldn't leave it for a million bucks.

damn you need to make them longer man. You tube allows up to 20 min. Thumbs Up if you want longer episodes!!

Wow awesome video Peter, surprised this hasnt gotten more views after so long! Can't wait to watch the rest of the series

I love watching these type of trip, great job

After 40years of canoe experience, Itasca to Coffee was the toughest 16 miles I ever did. 102 degree heat index didn't help any. The 1st boulder garden after Velkins portage is ankle bending and knee twisting. Couple small portages over dead fall and some beaver dams before Coffee pot then things mellow out. Rivr gauge at Coffee was alittle over 2ft at the time. Stump rapids had a lot of sweepers but was not bad. Pine Point was the last good solid ground we came across until Iron Bridge, just in case you have to poop. Iron brdg to hwy 2 was slow going, some portages and dead fall. Caution: leaches! Back breaking and bug biting, I loved it!

@ min 2:30 the Guy From The Hangover Movie LMFAO!!!!!!!! hahahahahaha

Great first episode. Looking forward to the rest of the adventure.

just watched all the episodes... amazing

The stuff dreams are made of!

Bravo Guys! I watched almost all the series. I came in at No.9 and went to the end! Now I am coming back to one. I enjoyed all the sites along the way, from small towns to large cities, as well as the shipping along the way. So well done. Reminds me of Kon Tiki kind of. You guys are up there! Thank you so very much.

Hey Peter I have two videos of my truck. One is 96 F150 Cold start and the other is memories of my 96 F150. In order to watch these videos just type in 96 F150 Cold start or go to my RU-vid channel CJ Colvin and you see the two videos that I posted and I live by the Mississippi river so you'll see the Old man river (as well as the state you grew up in) when watch one of my videos.

LIKE !!! Favorite!!! helo from Latvia

@rollerbandito LMFAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Even though this is years ago I'm just saying this now that this is better than the history channel

And the one time I actually pay attention to a RU-vid advert, it's actually worth watching, and that's how I discovered you (: Stay safe on your travels! And always remember: Don't eat the yellow snow!

Thumbs up for Minnesota and their toliets!

AMAZING! I love it! I'd be so scared of those gators. The camera is SICK! and how did you get all those shots? was it just the three of you guys? I saw the camera on the canoe but it looks like it was shooting a lot more angles than straight in front of you. Anyway... madd props for the madd skills you have putting this video together. Can't wait for the next one. :o)

1) That coffee looked good. 2) Amazing video game reference 3) I like that strap you're using for your sun glasses. 4) Great episode!

This is better than watching those reality TV shows anytime!!!😃😃

Awesome to see the show rolling, been waiting patiently and persistently.. HD is looking great, excited to see what Huckleberry adventures you end up in.

Would love to see you and the crew hit another canoe or kayak trip together. Your editing, and video skills were amazing for documenting this trip. I've rewatched it a few times now.

First of all why are you pitching your tents under the shelters? Couldnt you just aswell sleep in the shelters without the tents? And second of all I would love a video where you kinda went through the costs of this and the equipment you used and all of that, cause I would love to do something like this in the future. Anyway thanks for sharing and keep it up!

What a great adventure to have with your buddies. Maybe someday I'll convince my friends to cross Europe on backpack or something.

Question: Why is this called In Transit? I thought the other one was called In Transit because you were using public transportation.

Did this by kayak this summer, about a month after you guys started....it's fun watching....oh and thanks for removing the picnic table from the shelter at coffee pot landing...totally hunkered down in that thing when a T-storm blew through....

@ThePeoplesGuru Kayaking may be marginally faster, but canoes have a much greater load capacity. If I was doing a simple camping expedition I would choose a kayak. A video production I think a canoe is more appropriate.

This is awesome. Perfect length, perfect amount of detail. I didn't think these would be that great (I mean, I knew they'd but good), but they're really interesting. Looking forward to more!

XD This looks fun, but I think I'd need more experience, lol, I dont think I make the whole day paddeling, and I'd need like 5 bottles of sunblock, lol, cant wait to see more!

@TheRealityExit he makes money from views, longer videos = less views This way, we still get to see everything, and he makes more money so he can keep doing it. Win win!

Your expression around the 2:05 mark when the canoe got snagged was preceless. You're very fortunate to have captured that with perfect timing and everything!

i dont know if i like the narration , i liked the bus intransit because you talked about it when you were there and it was less like the discovery channel...

@pdrop i would love to see this as a series on tv, things like destination truth and what you do just makes me want to do it myself, amazing, true journey men

maybe you can interview each other some more. I bet the viewers want to get to know you and your crew. And you don't have to use voice-over as much!

Wonderful beginning to what must have been a wonderful adventure. I've been looking forward to these since you before you started in summer!

@pdrop you have absolutely inspired me to make my own adventure by doing your own. I don't know what I want to do but I'm inspired. Good Stuff!

I like the length of the videos, i just wish you'd release maybe like 2 a week instead of one! i'm just really excited to see your journey C:

Good stuff. Loved every second of it. Here's your next idea... How about driving across the country, without using any freeways.

I would've totally done the public transportation trip you did last time, but man, dark water gives me the creeps! Kudos to you guys.

@pdrop Why they aren't at least 15 minutes long? If eps are 7 min long maybe you consider to do some ottakes or behind the scene?

i liked the budget, beans, Belize and the people from the south america trip, cant wait to see the rest of this one though

i take it this journey was already completed and you're just now putting it on youtube? not that it's a bad thing.

as a fellow Canadian canoe lover, it's pronounced por-TAH-ge not portidge. after the french word porter (por-tay).

i love this! how often will you be posting new videos? (once a day, every few days, or once a week kinda thing)

you should stop off in Winona, MN! there are a lot of bars to wet your whistle! Go to ed's on 3rd street :)

Its probably be too late, but those fishing boots/pants might have been good for when you had to get out!

I canoed a 128 mile trek with the boys scouts at Northern Tier in Canada and we did all kinds of portages

@pdrop You should try to bump it to just under 10min if you can. 2 days of travel just isn't enough for me!

Enjoying the adventure already and looking forward to more. I hope this leads to your own regular show.

you guys didnt break the champaigne bottle ur canoe's gonna sink!!! D: quick!! bang it on the canoe!!!

nice start! glad to see things are moving forward... great vid! looking forward to seeing the rest.

@pdrop I would love to see longer episodes, even if they were only bumped up to 10 minutes long.

Nice I'm glad these are back. Thankfully there's wifi up here in yosemite. Safe travels.

yOW mAn! ur shOW should be in history chanel or discovery chAneL! .. i lov ur show!

great start guys. looking forward to much more. how often do you plan on posting?

nice love watching it !! who knows I will do it sometime but not america though !

I've been searching for a channel like this forever and now i FINALLY found it!

This is so sick, I seriously might have to do something similar to this in 2012.

How many episodes a week are you going to upload? I hope for at least 20 lol

ok I'm sorry but why aren't any of the top comments about how hot peter is?

I have waited so long for this! how often will the episodes be posted? :D

Love your shows and all, but u cant pitch a tent inside a windshelter :D

So awesome!! I agree with the others please make the episodes longer!!!

this is very interesting ! Cant wait for the next episode

i liked the LA to Panama canal one better.. a little more interesting

Wait, what months did you do this in? Or is it actually in December?

your shows so unique and amazing, i love it it keep up the adventures

Peter did you look at bringing hennessey hammocks instead of tents?

Why so short episodes? This can be stretched out to over 20minutes.

very nice. it must have been a great felling to travel by the river

This is pretty good, found it on a Yt ad, now I can't wait for ep2

Watch in 1080p HD. This is awesome even the 3rd time I watched!

Must have been a great experience. Living the dream right there.

I've been waiting for this for so long. Glad to see a vid is up .

Did you like Minnesota? :D u should have came to my house lol

this is so cool!! very well made and enjoyable :) keep it up :)

The guy with the funny laugh, is he a Beavis and Butthead fan?

why is this not a tv show on discovery or national geographic?

@pdrop whats gonna be the interval between episodes? 2-3 days?

PETER THIS IS AMAZING. I wish I could try something like this!

why no full episodes? i dont kow if this is how long eps are?

You are very inspiring and a likable character, cheers pdrop!

@DJLOUIEMIX hes a partner he can upload however long he wants

you look fantastic without a shirt on

@pdrop You did a great job i would love to do that sometime.

@ThePeoplesGuru Kayaking is the rollerblading of watersports

awesome! By the way, what camera do you use for these videos

@pdrop well i hope you guys get to start your own show soon

Looks like a really fun adventure! Looking forward to more!

Makes me want to get a canoe and plan a trip.

Awesome Sauce! Looking forward to following your journey!
