Last year I was at a demonstration of traditional birch bark canoe building. Truly amazing and really ingenuous from the indians who figured this out. This guy also paddled this 15' BB canoe from Rhode Island area up to Canada then to the great lakes, living out of the canoe. Definitely a Jeremiah Johnson type of guy.
