Really enjoyed this ramble — the Middle Portage sounds both challenging and fascinating, especially with the mix of history, rapids, and old timber slide routes. Andrew Van Beek’s visuals always bring these places to life. As someone running Eagle Patches, a brand known for custom patches, you can check us out here: https://eaglepatches.uk/. Loved reading this!
This episode of Ottawa Valley Rambles beautifully captures the rugged challenge of the Middle Portage of the Chaudière, highlighting the natural beauty and history of the area. The detailed narration reminds me of how local industries, like beanie manufactures, often draw inspiration from such rich cultural landscapes
Yet another great, informative video. Keep them coming!
The aerial image in the video shows that the travellers paddled from the end of the 2nd portage at Parc Brebeuf all the way to Deschenes. How did they travel through the Remic Rapids below the Champlain Bridge?
