Watch: 10 Days Canoeing Lake Superior

Explore The Backcountry just released their latest video (and it’s a full hour in length!). Wild Coast: 10 Days Canoeing Lake Superior | Pukaskwa to Michipicoten.

Superior, the world’s largest freshwater lake and very much an inland sea. This powerful body of water is larger than the country of Austria and directly influences the climate of its surrounding landmass. Fog can envelop her shoreline for days on end and wicked storms can whip up waves over 10m in height, taking with them many a ship. In the summer of 2018, Leah and I spent an amazing 10 days canoeing the most remote coast in the Great Lakes - 220km of undeveloped, wilderness shoreline. We were moved by the lakes’ rugged coastal mountains, boreal ‘rainforests’ and endless sandy beaches.
