Just because you’re paddling a remote wilderness river in Northern BC doesn’t mean you’re above singing Johnny Johnny….
Episode 3 of our Stikine River series is up on YouTube, link in bio!

Taking inventory of the things we lost on day 1 of our canoe trip… it was an all time record for us.

There’s something so primal about canoe tripping. You’re only focus is food, shelter, water, warmth and getting yourself from point A to B. No phones, no internet, no “modern world” distractions. It really forces you to be in the moment and gives you a greater respect for Mother Nature, because she’s in charge.
Canoe tripping is challenging, fulfilling, unpredictable, serene, scary and beautiful. It builds muscle, resilience and character. It encourages connection and disconnection.
Some people think we’re crazy for taking our kids on trips like this (myself included sometimes), while others think it’s inspiring. Either way, these experiences will create lasting memories for each of us.

Well I got my hunting licence and PAL last year so I suppose it’s only fitting that Santa brought me my first gun. Santa swears it wasn’t really just a gift for him. 😉
Jim and I went out for a little skeet shooting a few days after Christmas and threw about 100 skeet’s. After quite a few misses I found my groove and was hitting them fairly consistently which I felt good about for my first time out. My arm was sore the next day but I’m looking forward to getting in some good target practise so I can start helping to fill the freezer.

The Three Sister Rocks along the Stikine River was a pretty incredible sight to see. We passed them on day 1 shortly before we decided to make camp for the night.. before the weather went to sh*t…

On day two of our family canoe trip down the Stikine River through Northern BC and into Alaska, things got crazy when a raging windstorm blew up in the night and we had to secure our tent down. When I climbed out of the tent the next morning, our canoe was gone. Watch the full video from this part of the adventure through the link in my bio.

(Full vid. linked in bio.) Morning at camp on Day 3 was a little more interesting than usual with something hanging out in the woods near by. After loading the canoe while our son Hudson belted out the toddler anthem Jonny Jonny, we continued our journey down the mighty Stikine River towards Alaska. We were looking to make up for lost time but heavy rain and wind slowed us down. We had to again make a sturdy tarp rig at camp to escape the downpour that evening. In the shelter of the tarp that night, my wife @torigoesoutside cooked up a the best camping meal ever which really hit the spot. Watch the full video through the link in my bio.
