Alger Falls - Waterfalls of Michigan Series Davids Passage 2016-08-22 | Alger Falls is one of the easiest waterfalls to see in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Mostly because you can see it right from the road. (You don't even have to get out of your car in fact.) It's located right on M-28 just before you enter the town of Munising, Michigan. Although these falls are fairly simple to get to, to fully experience their beauty you have to put a bit of effort into climbing to the top. My wife and I did, and the footage contained in this clip will show you just how cool this waterfall is :-)----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Pictured Rocks Kayaking Davids Passage 2016-08-08 | In this video I take you along while I kayak Pictured Rocks near Munising Michigan. This is by far one of my absolute favorite kayaking experiences EVER! This video journals my experience throughout the day and is my best attempt to highlight the beauty of this national lake shore. This video is split up into a few parts, and here's why...We used Uncle Ducky's Paddling Michigan as our guide service. (http://www.paddlingmichigan.com) They offer several options to paddle Pictured Rocks, and so I thought it would be appropriate to split the video up into segments that would reflect the type of trip you might experience should you book with them. The trip we chose was the "paddle and hike". This took us along roughly 14 miles of beautiful Lake Superior shoreline, and then ended with a 3 mile hike to a pickup point. In the middle, we stopped for lunch at Mosquito Beach.Some trips they offer just go to the point where you eat lunch and then return home. In my opinion, you miss out on a lot if you just paddle halfway and then back. If you ever want to paddle this, I highly suggest long sleeve everything as the stable flies are AWFUL! Whatever wasn't covered, they attempted to bite. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

AuTrain River Paddling - in Michigans Upper Peninsula Davids Passage 2016-08-05 | This video features my wife and I paddling the AuTrain River in Au Train, Michigan. We started at Cameron Crossing, just north of Lake AuTrain along Forest Lake Rd. We then spent the next 3.5 hours canoeing this beautiful river, eventually ending up in beautiful Lake Superior. This video highlights some of the beauty that this river provides for those who decide to kayak, canoe, SUP, or paddle otherwise. We did not use a livery service this time as the canoe we used came free with the cabin we rented. It just so happened that the cabin was on the river as well, which made for a super convenient river experience. If you want an awesome Upper Peninsula experience in the Munising / AuTrain / Marquette area, I highly suggest checking out autrainrivercottage.com . Our experience renting our cabin from them was great! The owner is super friendly, and very knowledgeable about the area and the great things to see there. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

The Smudge Fire - Mosquito Hack Davids Passage 2016-06-22 | Hate mosquitoes? I do, and this video will show you one way I deal with them when I'm in the bush. This is a very effective bushcraft method for dealing with mosquitoes. My first exposure to a smudge was many moons ago when my aunt passed away and some native fire keepers came in and smudged her house. Her husband was Chippewa, and after a person passed, it was their tradition to fill the house with smoke in order to purge the house of spirits (or something like that. It was a long time ago :-) Well, it turns out that smoke is pretty good at purging areas of bugs in general, and that is what a smudge fire is all about. The basic principle is simple; make a smoky fire. Since mosquitoes (and bugs in general) hate smoke, they will keep away from it (for the most part).In order to contain the smudge and make it portable, I use an old soup can with a wire coat hanger rigged into a handle. This is also an excellent way to make a coal transportable over long distances. Just keep adding punk wood to the can while you hike. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

North Country Trail Day Hike - Lowell, Michigan #Hike100NCT Davids Passage 2016-02-15 | In this video I take you along with me on a recent (and cold!) day hike on the North Country Trail. This day hike represented the final miles for my #Hike100NCT challenge. This challenge is sponsored by the North Country Trail Association in conjunction with the National Park Service to encourage folks to get out on the trail this year in celebration of its 100 year anniversary. The temps and winds varied for the day with averages at around 10F with wind chills bringing it down to -5F. We started our hike at a boy scout cabin in the Lowell State Game area in Lowell, Michigan. From there we hiked about 7.5 miles north, and then back to the cabin. This was a group day hike with the Michigan Hiking and Backpacking Facebook Group.I got to meet some really cool people, and it was amazing weather for a hike. Afterwards we all went over to the Flatt River Grill in Lowell for some much deserved grub. I had their Flatt River Burger with fries and it was amazing. :-)See you outdoors! :-) ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Frogg Toggs Toadz Anura Jacket Review Davids Passage 2015-12-15 | In this video I review the Frogg Toggs Toadz Anura rain jacket. I've now had this jacket on me for a few rainy day hikes, and have really been impressed with its performance. I would say that this jacket is a step up from the entry-level Frogg Toggs jackets. It features the same material that has made Frogg Toggs famous, but is covered in an extra layer of material that enhances the look and performance of the jacket. If you would like more information on this jacket, or if you would like to purchase one and support this channel, head on over to: http://amzn.to/1OnVohxThis jacket features 4 zipper pockets on the outside; two on the chest, and two on the sides for hands etc. It also has two VERY large internal pockets where you could dump all kinds of gear; hand warmers come to mind in particular. The waist seam has two cinch cords so you can tighten the waist. It also has a cinch-able hood with two pulls where you would normally find them, but also one on the top/back of the head for further tightening. I'll be honest that I am always a little leery when it comes to rain jackets with zipper pockets, so to test the pockets, I put card-stock in them before heading out on a rainy hike, needless to say, the car-stock came out bone dry at the end of the day. I was also very impressed with how lightweight and packable this jacket is. I could really pack this thing down so it didn't take up so much pack space. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Canoe Tip - The J Stroke Davids Passage 2015-12-15 | In this video I demonstrate how I do the "J Stroke". This is a canoe paddling technique that allows you to keep your paddle on one side of your boat, and propel yourself straight.One of the frustrations in canoeing is keeping the bow of your boat straight. This is especially true if you are solo canoeing. The first instinct is to lift your paddle out of the water, switch sides, and then correct your direction by paddling on the other side. Although this works, the problem with this method is three-fold. One, you often drip water in the boat, getting your gear wet. Two, doing this all day long can really take a toll on your energy levels. And three, at the end of the day (and into the next) you are almost certain to have sore muscles (unless you're a young buck :-) With the J Stroke, you keep the paddle on one side of the boat for the most part; keeping the water where it belongs (in the river). Also, because you're not constantly lifting it out of the water all day long, you can actually paddle a lot longer during a day, and will keep your muscles a lot more happy. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Charlestown State Park Day Hike Davids Passage 2015-12-08 | In this video I take you along with me on a rainy day hike in Charlestown State Park in Charlestown, Indiana. This park sits right on the Ohio River, and is very rich in history. For this hike, I hiked trails 3 and 7 which led me down to the banks of the Ohio River. This is a very well-marked, and mostly paved hike. This trail took me down to the historic Rose Island, which was sort of an amusement park in the early 20th century. There were still many remnants of the park left to enjoy which you will see in the video. Before going any further though, I do want to apologize because I kept pronouncing this place as "CharlesTON" instead of "CharlesTOWN". My bad :-)One thing that was nice about this particular hike, is that because it was rainy and in late November, I had the trail all to myself. Along the trail were many signs, and interactive kiosks that told the history of the park, which was nice too. Here are a couple of links you may find helpful if you are ever decide to check out the area:http://www.in.gov/dnr/parklake/2986.htmen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlestown_State_Park----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Harrods Creek Kayaking - Louisville, Kentucky Davids Passage 2015-12-01 | In this video I take you along as I kayak Harrods Creek near Louisville, Kentucky. The creek is actually in Prospect Kentucky, but it is in the greater Louisville metro area. This "creek" is a tributary of the Ohio River. I say "creek" because it probably averages about 75' across in most places. But there is very little current to it. On this stretch or river you can expect to see deer, turkey, turtles, cranes, and possibly even a bald eagle. The livery I rented from was Nachand Canoe and Kayak Rental: http://www.nachandkayaks.com This is a family-owned business, and attached to the business is a sports bar/restaurant called, Darkstar Restaurant or Darkstar Tavern. $30 got me 4 hours with this beautiful river. One of the nice things about it is that because there is very little current, I was able to paddle up the creek for a couple of hours, turn around and head right back to my car. The livery is also conjoined with a bar and grill, so if you are hungry when you get back, there are food options. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

A Veterans Day Conversation Davids Passage 2015-11-11 | I wanted to take some time to have a conversation with my daughters about what Veteran's Day means, reflect on it, and express my appreciation to any of you vets who may watch this video. So in this video, I do just that. I realize this isn't along the lines of what I normally produce for this channel, but Veteran's Day is very important. A lot of men and women have gone to great lengths to secure the freedoms we have, and we should all take time today to not only reflect on that, but thank those that we know who sacrificed for us.

DIY Waterproofing - Waxed Canvas, cotton, leather Davids Passage 2015-11-10 | In this video, I take you along as I make a batch of DIY waxed waterproofing solution to treat some of my outdoor gear with. This is a super simple process, that is very effective in treating any cotton or leather goods that you may have. It also seems to be popular right now to have waxed cotton goods, so you might even use this to wax your stuff to stay trendy :-) In this recipe, I used 8 ounces of beeswax (you can also use paraffin), 4 ounces of boiled linseed oil, and 4 ounces of turpentine. If you do decide to make this waterproofing solution, I highly suggest you do it outdoors because you are working with some flammable ingredients.

Fall Colors Kayaking - Huron River - Ann Arbor Michigan Davids Passage 2015-11-02 | Make sure to watch till the end for a surprise wildlife encounter :) In this video my wife and I kayak the Huron River in Ann Arbor Michigan during the beautiful colors of fall. This trip was taken on October 20th, 2015. We launched from the Barton Nature Area in Ann Arbor, Michigan and took out at Gallop Park on the other side of Ann Arbor. Just past Argo Park we entered the Argo cascades which the town built to help boaters avoid a former portage around the dam there. The cascades offer 9 drops in the river that make the river very fun. It is recommended that those who go through the cascades can swim and have experience paddling as boats can easily get swamped from the rapids. Both my wife and I got wet, but didn't tip.This river flows near the University of Michigan campus, and several parts of campus can be seen as well as the University of Michigan hospital. This was a beautiful paddle trip and I highly recommend you look into it if you are ever in the area. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Manistee River - Lucas Bridge to 23rd Rd Davids Passage 2015-07-23 | In this video, we take a few days to paddle the Manistee River near Manton, Michigan. This video will show you what you might expect from this stretch of river if you ever decide to do it yourself. In all my kayaking videos I will show you what the bridge crossings look like, as well as the landings, and of course, the flora and fauna as well.In a couple of weeks I am leading a group of about 15 on a week-long canoe trip down this river and I thought it best to scout out a section of it before attempting to lead others down it. I have never done this river before, but I had some ideas of what to expect from so many others who have.As I was planning this scouting trip, I happened to discover a group of others who were also going to be on the river at the same time, so I decided to hook up with them to check things out. This river in northern lower Michigan is a great river for beginner paddlers to tackle, and Chippewa Landing was a great livery to work with in planning the trip. (chippewalanding.com)Jeff from Common Folk Self Reliance: youtube.com/user/CommonFolkSRandAllen, The Consummate Outdoorsman: youtube.com/channel/UCwTA0wM-uZmbtZnZqN0wrdQThese guys were the ones I was meeting up with.

Mulberry - Wild Edibles Series Davids Passage 2015-07-07 | This week in our wild edibles series, we're taking a look at mulberry (morus). I was recently surprised to see mulberry pop up in one of the forums I frequent for an identification request. I immediately thought to myself, "I thought everyone knew what this was". Then I remembered my parents warning me about these when I was younger, saying that they were probably poisonous. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mulberry is not only edible, it is very delicious! So... hikers, campers, bushcrafter, and foragers... be on the lookout for this amazing wild edible this season!----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Stinging Nettle - Wild Edibles Series Davids Passage 2015-06-16 | In this video we take a look at another one of my favorite wild edibles to look for, stinging nettle (aka Urtica dioica). Stinging nettle is high in vitamins A and C, and from what I understand, it has one of the highest concentrations of protein in any given edible plant. This is a plant that I would consider a super-plant because of its many uses. Not only is it edible, but it is also medicinal in treating a variety of ailments. For more on it's medicinal potential, I suggest the following article: http://wb.md/1cE8tmAStinging nettle is also a useful plant in making cordage and was even used by natives in making bow string. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Wood Sorrel - Wild Edibles Series Davids Passage 2015-06-09 | Wood Sorrel (aka Oxalis acetosella) has to be one of my favorite wild edible plants to find. It's taste is one of the best in the leaf world IMHO, and it is super easy to identify. The taste can really give you a boost on the trail. To my knowledge there are no known toxic lookalikes. Having said that, always consult with a local expert first before consuming ANY wild edible plant.One thing I will say is that wood sorrel contains a chemical called oxalic acid. In quantity, oxalic acid is bad for you, but I can't say for sure how much it would take to hurt you. One more reason to consult a local expert first. With many wild edible plants, only certain parts can be consumed while other parts are toxic, and certain plants can only be consumed in certain quantities before they become bad for you. My guess is that the amount it takes is determined much by who you are. For example, while a pound might be bad for young children or pregnant mothers, it may be perfectly fine for a 25-year-old. Don't take my advice on consumption though! Consult with a local expert first.----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Leeks aka Ramps - Wild Edibles Series Davids Passage 2015-04-21 | In this video I take you along to show you how you can identify leeks in the wild. These are also called ramps as well as a few other names. They are fairly easy to identify, and if you like onions or garlic, you will love these!WARNING: Always consult with a local expert FIRST before trying ANY wild edible plant. I am NOT an expert. They are great in soups and salads, and do not have to be cooked to be eaten. They would be amazing on burgers too if you hike with a grill on your back :-)In my area they tend to grow on hillsides and in soils that are fairly moist with some consistency. They often grow in large patches. Since leeks / ramps are a root vegetable, take precautions NOT to over-harvest them. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

Knife Sharpening - Cheap and Effective Davids Passage 2015-01-20 | In this video I take you along as I give a little TLC to one of my favorite knives, the Mora Bushcraft Black. And I do it with a fairly inexpensive Smith's diamond sharpener. (This one here: http://amzn.to/1xrxzcq ) It doesn't take a $200 sharpening system to get your knives razor sharp if you know some basic principles of sharpening.

Easy Spoon Carving - Without a spoon knife Davids Passage 2015-01-07 | Spoon carving is a ton of fun, and you can even go as far as to leave your spoon at home when you hit the trail if you have a knife on you. It just takes a bit of practice.In this video I take you along as I carve a crude, yet simple wooden spoon using only my Mora Bushcraft Black knife. That's right, no special spoon knife needed. Although spoon knives are wonderful to use, practicing this skill will allow you to leave that spoon at home on your next trek out into the wild. Here is the knife I primarily used in this video: http://amzn.to/1Hsay2SSome benefits of mastering this skill...- one less thing to pack- one less thing to keep track of- every ounce counts :-)I'm no pro, but my guess is that if I can do this, you can do it, so get out there and try it. If you think about it, send me a picture of your spoon to my facebook page. I'd love to see them. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

DIY Birch Bark Bowl Davids Passage 2014-12-23 | In this video I show you how to make a simple birch bark bowl. Birch bark containers have been used for centuries by natives in the northern regions.

Hygiene and First Aid Kit for The Trail Davids Passage 2014-12-09 | Personal hygiene and first aid is a very important thing to consider whenever you plan to hit the trail. In this video I take you on a magical journey through my hygiene kit as I've been getting asked a bit about what it is I take. :-)First of all, I combine my hygiene and first aid kits into one bag. I call it my personal care pouch. I do this because I am very minimalistic when it comes to these things. At this point in my outdoor life I have enough experience to have whittled it down to what it is. But am I missing something? So far this kit has served me well. I almost never use it, yet, have the sneaking suspicion that I am missing something vitally important. Please lease let me know if I am missing something or what it is that you must have in your kit. I would love to hear about it in the comments.See you outdoors!----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.

How to Make Char Cloth Davids Passage 2014-12-02 | Char cloth is something that is used as a way to convert sparks into fire using the flint and steel method of creating fire. By charring natural material, the charred material will easily catch a spark. You then can blow it into flame using a tinder bundle.

You can check out that video here: http://youtu.be/Jil0DWVfQOYIn this video I take you through a process by which you can easily make char cloth using a few simple and cheap tools you probably already have laying around the house. ----------If this is your first time with us, my name is Dave, and David's Passage is the name of my vlog.
