About this episode

The episode discusses the host's experiences and lessons learned from a recent canoe trip in Allagash, Maine.

I’m back from my Allagash trip, and in this episode I sit down with Lacey to talk through the full experience.This is my post-trip debrief: the route, the planning, the gear I used, the canoe, the food, the filming process, the weather, the challenges, and the moments that stuck with me the most. I also talk about what worked well, what I would do the same, and what I would change if I were to do the trip again.The Allagash is more than just a canoe route. It’s a place filled with history, tradition, solitude, hard travel, beautiful water, and a deep connection to Maine’s outdoor culture. After spending days paddling, camping, filming, cooking, and living by the rhythm of the waterway, I came home with a better understanding of why this place means so much to so many people.This episode is part story, part gear breakdown, part reflection, and part practical advice for anyone thinking about planning their own Allagash trip.Enjoy!*Gear mentioned in this video:EUHOMY 12 Volt Electric Cooler, 37QT(35L) https://amzn.to/4uS7IObThe North Face Tents Stormbreak 3 Three-Person Camping Tenthttps://amzn.to/4oKdG2aSawyer Squeeze Water Filtration Systemhttps://amzn.to/3Sd5lYNGoal Zero Yeti…
