Join me on my first-ever sea kayaking multi-day trip as I paddle with SAND Adventures on Lake Superior to the Slate Islands, an island group created a billion years ago by a meteorite impact.
Thank you to Zack for this incredible trip, the entire group for letting me film, and the amazing experience together! ❤️🤙🏼
Additional drone footage thanks to Zack Kruizins 🎥🙏🏼

Have you done a multi-day kayak trip? Where was your first expedition?

@flatheadfletch Месяц назад

Loved the enthusiasm. Excellent inspiring video. I hope I find a woman that will do this with me before I’m to old to enjoy it all. 63 and hoping ! Lol

Thanks so much for watching and commenting. It was a beautiful trip and I'd highly recommend doing any kind of paddling on Lake Superior if you ever get the chance! Maybe you'll find a partner to do it with too!

Thank you for watching and commenting! The Slate Islands is a magical spot and I’m thrilled to be able to share it with you 🦅🦦🌲🪨

After watching this, it’s really surprising it doesn’t have more views! I bet you for sure will do another one of these.

@PaddleAdventurer 4 месяца назад

Thanks for watching and for the kind comment! I had a wonderful time and I can't wait to do another kayak expedition. In the mean time, I'm planning my next backcountry paddle boarding trip for this summer!

I love your videos so much! My goal when I paddle is to "see stuff" ( birds, turtles, whatever), and everything else is a bonus for me. 😁Happy New Year, I can't wait to see where your adventures take you in the coming year! 🎉🏕🏞🌠

@PaddleAdventurer 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the kind words; I'm so glad you enjoy my videos! I also love checking out all the little things. Slates was amazing for exploring and paddling between rocks. 🎉 Happy New Year to you too! Still loads of advenchas to edit from 2023 and more to come this year 🙌🏼

The one thing you do not mention is the water temperature. I was at the apostle islands and the water temp in lake superior never gets above 55 degrees F. Please keep this in mind when doing anything in or on this lake.

@PaddleAdventurer 2 месяца назад

@@charlesroll424 Absolutely! You should always dress for the water temperatures and Lake Superior can be cold all year long. The average surface temp is in and around 60F in August. apps.glerl.noaa.gov/coastwatch/webdata/statistic/pdf/all_year_glsea_avg_s.pdf This is a great site to check out Great Lake's water temperatures: www.glerl.noaa.gov/res/glcfs/ Also, the Apostle Islands, look amazing!

Such a ruggedly beautiful area! What a great trip. Lake Superior can be so intimidating to be out on the water. Looks like you had amazing guides!

@PaddleAdventurer 4 месяца назад

Thanks for always watching! Northern Ontario especially on Lake Superior is magical and visiting the Slates was extra special.

@nicolereiss 5 месяцев назад

Love the adventure and the underwater shots...beautiful water!

@PaddleAdventurer 5 месяцев назад

Thanks! The clarity of the water was unbelievable and pretty chilly!

Super sick video I’m jealous

@PaddleAdventurer 4 месяца назад

Thanks for watching and for your kind words! The Slate Islands are amazing and I feel so lucky to have experienced them!

@SwanQtrTom 2 месяца назад

I always prepack for a trip and then I unpack into my front and rear duffle bags. That makes packing the kayak at the dock a lot quicker.

@PaddleAdventurer 2 месяца назад

Great tip! A few folks on this trip used large IKEA type bags to carry their pre-packed items to the kayaks. Where I struggled was not knowing how to best pack for the sea kayak as I'm used to packing for paddle boards and canoes.

@SwanQtrTom 2 месяца назад

I’ve noticed IKEA bags have become popular for getting those loose items to the campsite. I might need to upgrade from my Home Depot bag. Happy padding.

@PaddleAdventurer 2 месяца назад

@@SwanQtrTom They are pretty useful! Hold up to lots of wear and tear, don't soak up water, can hold a lot of gear and pack down well. Sounds like you have a pretty solid system though! Happy paddling to you too!

@KathieMcLaughlin 5 месяцев назад

How did the Slate Islands get their name?

@PaddleAdventurer 5 месяцев назад

Great question! I'm not sure. youtube.com/@zkruz do you know?

@zkruz 5 месяцев назад

I am not 100% clear on how they became named the slate islands as they are not really made of slate. There are another Slate Islands off the coast of Scotland which are actually composed of Slate but these Slate Islands off of Terrace Bay Ontario are composed of Archean supracrustal and igneous rocks and Proterozoic metavolcanics, metasediments, and diabase. Super complicated geologic formations. There might actually be slate in the mix somewhere, and perhaps when they were explorered by westerners they just named the islands that.. I will dig deeper and see if I can elaborate more.

@@zkruz Thanks so much Zach. Interesting theories!
