Q&A

How do you navigate closed roads and portage your equipment?

In this video, I faced the challenge of closed roads, so I had to walk my canoe and all my gear to the water. I did multiple portages back and forth to ensure I had everything I needed for my camping trip.

What equipment did you bring for your solo canoe camping trip?

I brought a hot tent, firewood, a GSI coffee press, my sleeping bag, and essential camping gear. Check out the video for a full overview of the equipment I used.

How did you stay warm in cold temperatures?

I used a hot tent, which is a great way to stay warm in cold temperatures. The tent traps heat from a small wood-burning stove, making the interior cozy and comfortable.

What's your secret to making the perfect cup of coffee in the backcountry?

I boil the coffee grounds directly in water and then use a GSI coffee press to push the grounds to the bottom. It's a simple and efficient method that results in a delicious cup of coffee.
