Isle Royale Day 1: Windigo to Feldtmann Lake 

Just put it out tonight! Thanks so much for watching.

Crock time!!! Haha only the best camp time aside from dinner. Thanks for watching.

Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching :)

@@blagow1 let us know if you need any help. Lots of good resources out there too.

@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife Wow, thanks for the quick reply. I'm quickly making my way through your videos. LOL.

@@blagow1 glad you’re liking them!

@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife I watched your 2nd trip several years ago and I've been trying to find you again. Very detailed and informative videos. Thanks!

and we miss our tramily greatly!!

Thank you. More videos coming soon.

I went in up to my knees (pre leach spotting) and decided to not go for a long swim after that haha. Once we hit siskiwit though we did some swimming.

@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife that wouldve been me too😂😂

Haha. Those hares were everywhere there! Sounds like an awesome trip. Day 2 coming soon.

That’s awesome. The east end is great too. We enjoyed our trip out there as well. How was the weather/bugs in June?

@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife We were there last week of June and we did not need bug spray. Just a few bugs in late evening when we were turning in. We went same week 3 years ago and likewise had no issues. Must admit that bugs were my biggest concern prior to first going to ISRO, and has been no concern.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the videos. Stay tuned for more!

Hahaha! The spiders at NLD are the biggest for sure!!! Definitely laid eyes on those two back in 2018.

Thank you. You’ll love it there. Day 2 coming soon!

@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife Awesome! Excited to check out the days ahead!

Yea that section of trail was nice. No shelters at feltdmann. It’s a great book, I finished it on the trip. Excellent quick read. Haha. We are always early to bed when hiking. Part two coming soon. Thanks for watching.

gotta love croc time

There’s several ferries as well! We’ve taken the ranger III ferry out of houghton before as well.

You can find them on packit gourmets grocery section online (under dairy). No refidgerarion needed. Called Wisconsin cheddar. www.packitgourmet.com/WisconsinCheddarCheese.html

This particular trip we went in Mid/Early July. I don’t recommend that time of year. We’ve also gone in late July/early august and that was much more enjoyable. Come prepared in case there was a wet spring, but you should be good in august.

Not this time. Saving it for another trip.

@@blagow1 this trip was July

Not this year. But we have another michigan long hike booked

​@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLifeI'm going twice for the first time! Drop off at Malone Bay on 8-3, then on to South Desor Lake Campground, then Washington Creek Campground, then the Greenstone Ridge Trail to Rock Harbor. Back on Isle Royale later in late August into September for a Minong Ridge Trail from Washington Creek Campground to McCargoe Cove, and down to Moskey or Daisy Farm, and then Rock Harbor.

Gosh hopefully soon! We’ve had an odd year for trips. Haven’t been able to get the time off needed. Planning to hike a couple weekend trips here soon.

Appreciate the insight. There’s a fine line between too much vlogging and too much scenery. We haven’t found the groove yet. Trust me there’s lots of beautiful scenery coming. Much of the trail on this trip was just green tunnel. But I could’ve done a better job. The camera gets better as we go on this trip. Most is operator error. I cut a lot of footage because of it. Hard to find the perfect camera for this.

@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife all good. What kind of cam are you using?

@@thejarrettsjourney cannon g7x was our standby for years but the autofocus broke and it made a audible clicking noise when recording that was not able to be removed in editing (not with my skill level). So we tried several options before landing on the cannon EOSm50 that worked great for filming a few camping cooking stuff and our duck videos. We took that along but we decided vlogging with that camera is not ideal (switching lenses, extra to carry, hard to see if your in focus on the view screen, larger, heavier..etc). Towards the end of the trip we started filming primarily with my phone for the vlogging and the cannon for some of the later moose footage you’ll see. It’s a great camera for wildlife filming but I think we are on the hunt for the perfect vlogging camera still. I wish the g7x lasted longer.

@@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife gotcha. We have an M50 which takes great pictures but your right, not the most ideal for outdoor vlogging. Maybe studio recording for that camera. I honestly suggest a gopro 9 (or 10) equipped with a media mod for the adventures. We made that switch and haven't looked back. I typically keep the lense in horizon lock linear for most vlogging and it works great. Check out some of our most recent videos and see what you think. There's been a few times where we had less than ideal audio but thats on me...not the camera.

@@thejarrettsjourney I’ve done the gopro route and honestly the experience was not great. Granted it wasn’t a 9 or 10 but I really don’t want to go back that route simply for audio limitations alone.

Haha yes!! We figured that out. The camera starts much more zoomed when turned on then our previous camera. I figured that out at least as we went. I didn’t intend for it to be that in my sweaty red face haha ! It’s very hard to tell when filming on a small view finder or screen how it’s actually going to look live. Hope you continue to watch despite it. Thanks for stopping by to comment.

You spelled too wrong. Omg !
