This was my second Trip Paddling solo and my first in an old canoe I bought from an outfitter. With Max and Thais we Paddle 41km from Palmer Rapids to Griffith. It was the perfect place to advance our skills and take a couple swims if need be, but the water was warm and everything was beautiful during 3 perfect August days.

Thanks again my man ☺️ I was actually just looking at Kokatat dry suits today 😋

@LostLakes 3 года назад

@@XanderBudnick nice, I've mulled that one many times, then I talk myself out of it due to the cost. But it would be extremely sweet

@XanderBudnick 3 года назад

@@LostLakes yah they're pricey but would be a lifelong item. Do you do whitewater?

@LostLakes 3 года назад

@@XanderBudnick yeah you'd certainly hope so for that coin. Yeah I do some but mostly just CI/II, maybe the odd touch of III. I definitely fear the power of water beyond CII so it was inspiring to watch you overcome that here

@XanderBudnick 3 года назад

@@LostLakes Aye for sure. It's healthy to have a good fear of the water. its scary stuff I have it too. Cheers my friend :D !!

Your videos are my favourite content on RU-vid right now! Inspiring me to pursue my own solo camping sessions. Thanks so much Xander for your amazing content and please keep the videos coming! Best wishes from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@aepage3165 2 года назад

I have a feeling this was one of those trips that integrated into yourself beautifully. Overwhelming and difficult at times, but in retrospect, it gave growth.

@chrisdowns422 Год назад

Nice example of a canoe over canoe rescue! I remember having to do that for a canoeing merit badge 50 years ago. For my canoeing, it's been a useless skill. But it was neat to see.

Just found your channel. This is great to see. I love your big rivers over there, here in Ireland we have much smaller rockier rivers but we still run them. You have certainly got your money's worth out of that boat already. Big Al.

@markg.3171 2 года назад

If survival methods rely on water condensation from leaves, doesn’t make much sense to use green leaves to dry, it does help with aireation I guess, but they hold humidity and water too

@sojournerbushcraft 2 года назад

Whitewater looks insanely fun! All my paddles have been on lakes but I’m planning a trip to run some rapids later this summer. Any filming recommendations? I appreciate that you showed the rushes and the fails.

@XanderBudnick 2 года назад

Moving water is the best. It's hard to go back after. Enjoy my friend. GoPro is a good choice :p make sure your camera is connected tied to the gunnel I've seen alot of list go pros from them not being tied down
