Hope you all enjoyed the video, more to come! 1) For Gear List, Canyon Map, and other relevant info on this trip: suluk46.com/arctic-canyons 2) My boat is an Alpacka Gnarwhal packraft, with full white water rigging (thigh straps, backband, skirt) and my gear stores inside the inflated tubes 3) Want to know more details about this trip? ru-vid.comzYne_egt3fQ?si=QJTUilwHig0XfgkB I was on the Canoehound Outdoor Adventure Show and did a 2 hour interview about this trip.
What an epic trip mate. So inspiring and executed so well! I’m brand new to Pack rafting but have definitely caught the bug. Much respect from Australia!
Thanks! Can't say enough good things about the trip, was just incredible. The packraft will put a smile on your face, and let you explore some hard to get to areas. Lottsa fun!
The climb down at the falls looked very tedious. No place for a canoe! I definitely get the appeal of pack rafting for trips like this. Beautiful scenery again! Thanks!
What an epic trip! Binging this series right now! By the way, Happy Yak is made in Québec and most of us eat shepherd's pie with ketchup, so my guess is that the ketchup packet indeed belonged in there!
Awesome, glad you like the series. You're the first person to answer the ketchup packet question, and I was out for a few days last week and someone asked me if I ever found out the answer. So thank you kindly 😁
Just epic, that is all I can say! What a beautiful place, heavenly really. You are so fortunate to have been able to be there. Thanks for sharing this wonderful adventure. :) :)
I am very lucky to have traveled through this land. It has rich history, is stunning, and there is no end of side trips that I could have embarked on. I will definitely be back.
Man this really is pretty epic. That waterfall was pretty spectacular. The remote nature and the fact that you are solo adds a whole different element.
Happy to see you are heading through each episode. It's a very very special place. Super remote and rarely visited. Hope you like the rest of the episodes. Honored you are watching. Enjoy!
@@Suluk46 Yea man you have quite a bit of stuff on here- Glad I found your channel. I small cataract would be perfect for that stretch of river minus the portage potential. The packraft seems to give you a lot of options. I have not utilized one yet- maybe a packraft material cat tubes with a carbon fiber/titanium frame needs to be engineered! Take care!
Happy you liked it. Was a bit of work getting through this section but still a lot of fun. Below the waterfall is the tallest and longest canyon, so should make for a fun video.
I don't think so. I haven't owned a freestanding tent for probably 20 years so I'm pretty good and setting these types of shelters up, even in rock. I mostly wish I had a solid interior for the constant ripping wind...it was relentless.
Awesome series so far! Just think, this river only gets paddled once every 22-24 years. Let's call it once per quarter century. Good find and appropriate timing. Did they only allow one permit this season or was it more like you were the only one who sought one?
They will give out more, it's just a tough park to get to and the approval process isn't the easiest. Not hard, but you have to have a pretty solid plan, best to have some previous experience.
