16 Days Across the Wild | LITTLE NORTH | Full Documentary

This is the full length documentary of our expedition across the wilderness of the Little North. LITTLE NORTH chronicles a 450km canoe journey across Canada’s Little North, a vast wilderness sprawling for over a million square kilometers in the northern reaches of Ontario and Manitoba. The adventure is centered on the Cat and Throat River watersheds of Northwestern Ontario. In an attempt to retrace portions of a long forgotten fur trade route, we paddle upstream on the Cat, cross the seldom travelled height of land and then descend the Throat from its headwaters to confluence. The area is steeped in first nation use and some sections are still traveled to access hunting and fishing grounds. Other sections have been lost to the ravages of time, and retracing these historic routes is no easy task. Few travel the remote waterways that crisscross this expansive wilderness, but those who do, are rewarded with unparalleled solitude and seclusion. This long documentary version combines the three episodes from this adventure with a few editing tweaks.
