    YT reminded me that the channel is 7 years old today...so grateful for your response to the first episode of the Trippin' series that started last week which recaps this youtube journey and my first year of full-time camping (155 days along with behind the scenes pieces). That series will continue throughout the year and the plan is to release one episode per season. The next episodes are still in progress. Regular trips will continue to be posted in the meantime :)

    National Geographic doesn’t have content as good as this.
  • @erudite1579
    Your work is a blessing to a former canoe trekker .. now in a wheelchair. Thank-you!

    Remember it's Spring (aka: mating season) That's just how otters mate. The male grabs the female by the scruff of the neck (she's tougher there and it doesn't hurt her) and holds on before he mounts her. She's actually the one dragging him around while he hangs on. LOL. They'll wrestle and roll and play both on land and off while he holds on tight. If you review the footage you may observe papa otter's, ahem, red rocket a couple of times. Aaah...love in Lake Superior.🥰
  • @artoffact3482
    The sound design, editing, narrative, shot selection, transitions, signature music theme, "B" roll and epic wildlife footage, and obviously the content really showcase your talent and honor your vision Jon. Very well done!
  • @ericadam7792
    Thanks for those 7 years Jon. Always a pleasure to watch your work.
  • @rjonzun5828
    The cinematography on this episode is just dazzling. Great work!
  • @s18169ex3
    What would be nice is that you win an award from national geographic society.
  • @zedz924
    Thank you Jon. My mother and I watch your adventures together. She says they are the best part of her week. You really have a special talent and love for nature. May the sun always shine upon your face and may the wind always be at your back.
  • Every frame is a real work of art! You are a master of your craft, continue to delight us with your talent! 👏🎨
  • @seanarthur2414
    Making this Saturday morning so much better. You are a true artist with pixels of light and sound waves. And it’s been amazing to see your channel and your skill set grow. You were not born with these gifts. You mastered them with passion.
  • @benreeves8541
    It's become abundantly clear that you're a plant for BIG NAAN's marketing arm with your breathtaking camera work and soothing, genuine, hilarious perspective. Do I eat more naan now? Yes I do. Do I crush your content knowing full well I'm being gamed by a naan lobbyist? I most certainly do. Bravo Jon Naan Jovi.
  • @janisrusis7864
    Your camera work has become next-level amazing lately, it's as if the viewer is sitting next to you in the canoe or flying by on the back of a bald eagle. Thanks for taking us along!
  • Congratulations on 7 years! I just love your cinematography and you inspire me to get outdoors. So much so that we’ve booked a full summer camping trip! Nowhere quite so outdoors though.
  • I spent several years of early childhood on the south shores of Lake Superior and I could swear I've felt the region calling me back my entire adult life. Seeing it through your eyes brings back so many good memories for me, and I always learn so much from your videos. Thank you so much for doing this.
  • @margoburns9085
    Spring is my favorite time to paddle. The landscape is so varied. The solitude is guaranteed. Another great video. I miss that part of Canada and happy you bring it right into my livingroom. Thank you.
  • @howardcobb4656
    Saved this one for an early Sunday morning watch with my first cup of coffee. Not disappointed - a great watch. You seem to get the most scenic video. Beautiful!!
  • @FoundPonds
    29:50 So cool to see the Goldeneye's courtship dance. This was my first time seeing it!
  • I have never fully understood the near manic excitement over an eclipse..if we were still ignorant of the phenomena, it could be understandable, but we now know that it is just the moon covering the sun, and the world is not ending. Truly if you see one, all the others are just the same.
  • @kjfh
    Have to say I’m loving this transition to a birding channel. 😂 Congrats on seven years and here’s to many more. 🎉
