My mother used to watch you sometimes along with me and all that my mother could say is that "what an amazing an brave and kind strong and daring person she is" she is simply amazed by the fact that you're doing it solo around the world. Great travelling Noraly.
Maybe her mother doesn't enjoy the content anymore? Since the statement is so ambiguous, I don't see any problem with him asking the question. He wasn't being rude about it. You people just want to be white knights. Calm down.
I used to live in Elsa, my father who is now retired worked for the United Keno Hill Mines from 1971 until 2001 and my family and traveled to Keno often and visited the snack bar. And the guy you interviewed was once my babysitter. Hey Mike!
Noraly you are showing us things most of us would never see if it weren't for you and your indomitable spirit of adventure. Thanks again for sharing your adventures with us.
what I like about your programs, no comments, you let people form their own opinions. and you do not make a big deal of the conditions no wineing no pretending it's dangerous, or exaggerating the situation. perfect balance.
The snowmobile in the museum on this video is an early Polaris 1960's Sno Traveler. Very few remain today. back around 2004 ish I had an old guy come into my welding shop in northern Minnesota to have a garden hoe made. He had an idea of a specific design and was pretty finicky about it. After making this tool for him he kept coming back a few times a week for coffee and chat with us. Turns out he was one of the founders of the Polaris company and the Sno Traveler was his baby back then. He shared lots of great stories with us over the years we were lucky to spend with him. RIP David Johnson .... and thank you for sharing with us ... I hope the new garden is as beautiful as the one you had here....
Norley I bet that old boy waited half his life to use that line, "oh your retired, no just tired"!This journey with you and Alaska has been a trip of a lifetime, your one of a kind young lady!
A tip for fellow motorcycle adventurers. There are often glass cutting companies in towns or cities where you can just cut out a cardboard or paper outline of your mirror and they will cut you a new one which you just glue over the top of the broken one using a suitable glass glue which they will usually stock or often can even do it for you. Cheap and fast solution when OEM replacements are not available.
@@EvilSt0ner ----- yeah, compared to the danger she has faced in Central America, Colombia and the southwest USA where most people are weaponized with guns and knives, The Yukon, where despite lurid fantasy stories in truth experiences very few wild animal attacks, is one of the safer places she has ever travelled !
RA Ardon ----- Guys who look like the guy on your thumbnail and who live in Central America, Mexico and Colombia are scarier than 99.9% of the people who live in The Yukon.
@@davidmarshall718lol. Completely safe driving around the southwestern US. Millions of people do it every year without problems. The place is really dangerous was driving in a city like Chicago where 40 people shot yesterday or places in South America, where they routinely hold up tourists to shake them down or kidnap them.
I love that no matter how big or small the town; you ride every road, visit every historic spot, visit with local folks, dine at quaint little places and can recite all the history as you are riding along in slippery mud. Then you put it all together in a video that is just the right length for watching in a nice quiet moment here at home. Thanks for doing such a tremendous job documenting your travels.
I am so glad you decided to travel through the Yukon. Gold rushes, Tim Hortons, grizzly bears, moose, northern lights…you are an honorary Canadian! 🏍👍😎❤️
Tim Horton was a legendary Canadian Ice hockey player who did 22 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL for short, it is the highest level of hockey). In the 1960's, he started opening donut shops around Toronto which bear his name. He was killed in a single vehicle car accident in the 1970's, the fast-food shops he founded now exist everywhere across Canada.
Yep, breakfast at Tim Horton's is as Canadian as it gets! A lot of people think the coffee tastes "burnt"... but I think it's light years better than Starbuck's. The Yukon, like so much of Canada's northern reaches, is distinctly beautiful in it's vast wilderness. Perhaps another time you can try riding Canada from coast to coast. There is so much to see...
@@baublesanddolls LOL My wife would agree with you, she prefers McD's. And I don't hate it... I just find that Tim's maintains better taste when you allow it to cool. Given that I tend to nurse my coffee for an hour or more, I'll stick with my Timmy's!
Well done, Noraly! I am with the guy who said he was just tired. You have to be really motivated to keep on going in the cold, the rain and the mud. Thank you for cranking out these excellent videos and for pressing on and showing us so many interesting things that tourists would just pass by.
I was surprised by Keno. Things looked initially ramshackle and, well, unkempt. But it was actually friendly and interesting. The guy at the restaurant actually offered to make a sandwich without hesitation. And that museum was great.
I cannot imagine what it would take to get one of the buses/motorhomes repaired should they have a breakdown !!! Yikes~repair parts would take months to arrive ~
Today's drone shot has Noraly being followed by a rain bow. The editing of the video and syncing it up to the dramatic parts of the musical background, is an insight to Noraly's creativity and a standard she has set for her videos. Such a treat. Cheers on your journey north.
Love the drone footage…..the RAINBOW at the 7:30 minute mark was awesome. Beautiful clear video of it clearly captured the rain too!! Thank you ItchyBoots !!
It’s always an adventure with you Noraly, even with only one mirror you just trek on. What a wonderful spirit and example for us all. My 12 yo daughter and I watch you together and are now doing so much more outdoors and planning our adventures because of you. Be safe, continue on, we love you.
Hi Norely, love watching you. You are an amazing lady. Brave, strong, funny and adventurous. Just to let you know, the reason you see motor homes on the road towing another vehicle, is because most of these travelers, stay in campgrounds, so they have another vehicle to use as they see the sites, rather than take the motor homes around town.😄. Look forward to your next video. Safe travels.😊
@@susanb1559 this is still funny to see this, if not seen before. I still think of Robyn Williams in that movie called R.V. I get the giggles up every time I see these large Buses, oh how I miss that man and his films..❤😅😢
Loved this video, I am from Nova Scotia, Canada but I lived in Whitehorse for 7 yrs. and traveled all around the North with the Northwestel Comm. You brought back some great memories. I am also a biker so needless to say I loved how you handed the backroads.
I'm not going to lie, for such an out-of-the-way, run down, podunk little shop, that BLT @ 14:07 looked utterly FANTASTIC!! Another incredible episode, Noraly!
Yesterday I finally got caught up on all your videos, what a journey it has been, many a time I am on the edge of my seat amazed at how many close calls you have, always with a smile and giggle, it was nice binging all your content but now I am left waiting, like everyone else in full anticipation of where we are going next. If you have not received awards for your cinematography you should be at the front of the list of creators making some amazing content that is educational in a way that goes beyond the classroom. I truly have enjoyed being emersed in all these amazing cultures. People have been so kind and generous, it has really renewed my spirit and expectations for the future.
I rode the ALCAN Highway in 1975 on a CB500 twin, and your stop in Whitehorse reminded me of the trip, but so much of the road was unpaved then that you would have loved that. I remember being excited that I actually saw pavement, disappointed when it disappeared so soon as I left town headed to Alaska and Kodiak Island. It was a very difficult ride and the risks are what I remember in retrospect. The mosquitoes were awful, so I tried not to stop too much either. As I watch, I shake my head in wonder at the effort you are putting into sharing this and the beauty I am now reminded of in that awesome part of the world. It's a memory no one can take away from me, and I am appreciative of the way you are revealing the majesty of that stretch of the highway and the feelings it awakens in my heart. I went from Minneapolis to Kodiak and back in three weeks. Not enough time in there to appreciate all you are revealing, and that is what makes this part of your journey so compelling to me. It's a vicarious ride down Memory Lane. Thank you.
We are from Nova Scotia. Our Daughter is an Engineer in The Yukon. Her work takes Her to various mining sites and She has mentioned Mayo and Keno . We have been up to Whitehorse where She is based out of a few times but not that far north yet. Thanks for taking Us along for the ride.
I've watched all those Discovery channel shows. None of them would hold a candle to our Itchy Boots, and in the U.S., she would leave the competition far behind. She'd blast to the top of the ratings and she would stay there. There is no contrived or fostered danger. She drops or sticks that bike in places most won't walk, all the time. She's gotten FAR too close to grizzly bears in the Alaska/ Canada outback. She got FAR too close to cartels in Central America and Mexico. She's inspiring. (Just look at K.Long's post below ) She's as good of a producer as any on television and manages to do that on the road and on her own. It's one of the most compelling shows ever. You always want to see if she makes it past this, thru that...and she always does with a cheery laugh and a smile. I honestly can't imagine why this has not been snatched up by the big guys. They would try to ruin it, but our Noraly has the unstoppable power of being smart, tough, and just plain fun to watch. That's worth more than two Ace cards in the hole...
Hi Noraly, I am writing to you for the first time after meeting you for your stay in Mexico with the other superbike Sinewan. Thank you for showing us those great forests and small details of the Canadian towns. Great traveling spirit, I wish you the best on your route, I will follow you, a hug. Edgardo
The reason those RV 's pull their cars behind is because once they arrive at an RV site, they need a vehicle to tour the area. Because you cover such huge distances in the US and Canada, a second vehicle is an asset once you arrive at your destination and park your RV. If you need to leave the site for touring or shopping, your RV holds your spot on the site. Happy travels Noraly. 😍
@@robzilla69 I think it's more the size of the thing, motor home are huge in North America, would neven fit in many city in Europe, being on the road she does that for years, but with only few thing, it's more the concept of caring your entire house that blows her mind ;-)
@@robzilla69 She was , here, in Australia & we have a Caravan/Trailer/camper , nomad scene. Grey Nomads & backpackers are everywhere doing the lap of Australia .Plus huge Camper Vans /Traillers
That tow behind car is valuable when your rv decides to lose it's transmission 45 miles west of Tok on the Tok cutoff. It let me drive home while the RV spent a month in Tok getting a new transmission installed...The Alcan, and remote Highways of northern Canada and Alaska are terrible and can eat an RV...
Drone Eyes show us most magnificent views of the Yukon landscape and the background music makes it all the more dramatic - WOW !! This has come to be the signature cinematography of Itchy Boots. Wonderful !! And the ride takes us to remotest of places one can imagine, meeting local people and learning about their way of life makes the vlogs very interesting. Carry on Noraly, way to go !!!
Once again…riding in a painting. The vastness is unbelievable. What a cool, interesting stop for lunch and a museum tour. The bottle house was so neat. As always, you have made a rainy, slippery mud day look adventurous and inviting. Big thumbs up🙂
Gold and silver were the magnets for much of the growth in western Canada. Minerals are still a big part of life in the West. Thank you for taking the time to highlight this. Mining is about 15% of GDP in the Yukon and about 5% of GDP in BC. Big country leads to big dreams, You are showing part of our history that many Canadians do not even think about. Thank you! 🙂
I am amazed at the epic solo productions you do Noraly. These videos are the highlight of my day. Don't know how you'll ever top this season! Thank you for all your hard work. As always, stay safe and happy trails!
Wow, I'm a huge fan starting today. So happy to find this. As a Yukoner you proved the journey is as interesting as the destination. Most Alaska bound blogs should just fly up to Anchorage instead of pretending they saw BC and Yukon. Thank you!
From the comfort of my armchair, it's thrilling to see the Yukon landscape. The aerial views of the motorcycle moving through the vast wilderness is breathtaking and has me thinking how different my riding life is. Watching the video I can help but think how our choices affect our experience. The "simplicity" of the riding life you embrace is both attractive and unattainable for me. So I'm grateful to live the life vicariously through each of your episodes. Thank you for again striking a chord of adventure in me. My Himalayan awaits my next mini-adventure!
Love your take on the giant RV's. As my father used to tell us when we were kids, "That's what you call getting away from it all by taking it all with you!" Ride safe, and while I can't wait to see how this part of your global adventures closes out, I am at the same time sorry to see it come close to an end. However, I know Noraly that you have many more adventures to come and you will take us along along for the ride.
Another stunning episode Noraly! Your drone shots to music are always just sublime, your narrative fascinating, your spirit and attitude inspiring, and your editing skills just so professional. My mood is always lifted after watching each episode. Thank you SO much for sharing! x
As always love your drone footage, but capturing the rain drops and rainbows in this episode was quite special. Another stunning day's ride ... wow, Canada is as beautiful as it is vast! You really have such a knack of finding hidden treasures, places and people 🥰❤😍
Traversing a vast, empty, lonely landscape; stop for lunch and dose of mining history, then onward for more! Drone shots give an excellent sense of the scale and distance. Thanks for showing us what few see in person.
I want to live I want to give I've been a miner For a heart of gold I've been to Hollywood I've been to Redwood I crossed the ocean For a heart of gold I've been in my mind It's such a fine line That keeps me searching For a heart of gold - (excerpts) Canadian songwriter Neil Young I think we subs here have already found a Heart of Gold in Noraly. Happy Trails!
@@jaysmoke3132 i,’m Canadian and yeah SAD is a thing, but 9 months? Lmao it’s like 7 months of winter, 4 of which are fun and snowy, and the other 5 months are split between spring, summer and fall, which are obviously beautiful in their own right.
I used to be annoyed by the big motor homes on the road, especially when I lived in Alaska where many of them end up going to. I then discovered that a lot of retired people are selling their homes and living on the road! When you pass one of those rigs you are passing their entire homestead. That gave me a different perspective on motor homes!
And no property tax, which is quite onerous in some places. I wonder if Tennessee has lower vehicle registration costs, as Noraly mentioned two Tennessee-plated buses in a row. [Edit: Another commenter said these buses were part of an organized tour (evidenced by a yellow sticker on the bus), so maybe that's what the Tennessee licence plates were about.]
Nice thought but not practical , A home is an investment where a motorhome is a money pit . most people I know who bought $200,000 plus motor homes were constantly pouring money into repairs after a year or so .
I am assuming Noraly is concerned about the 'madness' of these motorhomes' carbon footprint. Consider these motorhomes will not equal the amount of metric tons of Co2 in their lifetime that a jet plane will emit flying a motorcycle crate from England to South America. ItchyBoots = unsubscribed
It was really eye opening to think of those guys spending their whole lives in such a desolate area. I hope they still have days of great pleasure and I wish them good fortune. 🙏
Loving season 6! all the places you've visited are simply amazing! As an Ecuadorian-Canadian, I was so impressed that you had eaten plantains while in Ecuador and, many many kilometres later, you had a bagel and coffee at Tim Hortons in Canada, all by riding a motorcycle imported from the Netherlands. WoW
It’s good she tried our plantains in Ecuador, they are delicious! Also our bagels and coffee from Tim Hortons. I love them! She really enjoyed her trip all over Ecuador. Our country has many wonderfully places to visit😅
Another lovely and beautifully scenic video. RVs towing a vehicle may appear odd, but is actually very practical. They can park their RV for longer periods, and the RVers can still get around for short trips or getting supplies.
Because we can, Americans love having their home away from home with them. Many live on the road so it is their living house, wherever they go. Love have decent content. More rare these days and we love your positive attitude as well.
This is so good. You are a very likeable person and your interactions with the locals are always nice to see. I’d love to visit Canada one day, then Alaska, so watching this only heightens my resolve to get there. Enjoying your back catalogue now, and looking forward to more of your adventures. Thank you! Rob, Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
Hey Noealy 😊 I'm from the USA... RV's pulling Cars/Pick-ups are a Norm here in the US...I say whatever makes a person happy good for them...Live and Let Live 🚌🚗
When I retired in 1991 I traveled to all 50 states and Canada in a RV (bus) towing my Jeep. I would park my RV and use the Jeep to explore. It was my home for 5 years. I wish I still could. I enjoy watching your adventures.
The north is such an amazing place. Northern British Columbia, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Alaska just have a way of getting into your soul. Very hard to describe this feeling - it's just something you have to experience firsthand. Loving all of your Canadian videos, Noraly! Greetings from Ontario. P.S. Your Tim Horton's breakfast stop was such a "Canadian moment" LOL I've had many of those same bagel breakfasts myself!
Somehow, I've watched alot traveling channels but this one by far my most favorite channel, so true, so real, so live! I really enjoy your video going places, Noraly! I wish you always well.
This was one of your best videos I got to see my old friend Mike Mancinni . He was the one who make your sandwiches . He used to live on Vancouver island for al long time , and moved back to the Yukon. Thank you for showing him, brings back memories
Extremely interesting, you are feeding my hunger to travel more on my motorcycle, at 67 if I could spend everyday on my bike I would … thanks for all the inspiration .. totally awesome 💕
Gracias Noraly, por tu encanto y tu carácter alegre, donde nunca falta una sonrisa en tu rostro, y una mirada que nos ilumina el día. Estoy siguiendo todas la temporadas, vi la S 2 desde Tierra del fuego, hasta Perú, seguí con la S 3, por Islandia y norte de Europa, también vi la S 4, entrenando con distintos tipos de motos, esperando seguramente que la pandemia permitiera los vuelos y voy por el episodio 12 de África. También estoy siguiendo tu actual viaje por el Yukón. Seguiré los sucesivos episodios, atrasados hasta el presente. Gracias, con mi esposa, te consideramos parte de la familia. Cariños. Mar del Plata Argentina, octubre 14 de 2022.
Noraly, the places you are traveling through now are magnificent in their beauty and simplicity. And the people you meet are as simple, good, true and majestic as the places you travel through. It seems like an eternity until the next episode. Once again, as always, thank you for taking us along on your travels.
It is just so great to be following your adventures. Somehow, they feel like the viewers are with you. Excellent views and interesting topics. Take care and Godspeed.
Spectacular drone footage once again. The shots along the Silver Trail in "follow me" mode were awesome. It appeared to be raining and the drone was picking up the rainbow across the lower left made it unforgettable.
Buenos días a todos quienes vivimos este hermoso viaje junto a Noraly, a disfrutar de todo lo que Ella nos enseña a travez de su vivencia con Alaska y sus cámaras. Viaja seguro cuídate aliméntate y descansa. La vida es sólo una.
It's amazing some of the unusual places you find in the little towns and boroughs and all the people you meet seem very nice and accommodating. I find it fascinating and I learn something new every episode. It's so cool.
It’s so much fun to stop at little eateries, especially one with a friendly dog. My last trip to Colorado, I took 50 through Kansas and Colorado to the Western Slope instead of 70. It was so much fun and a more relaxing/enjoyable way to travel. I ate yummier food and met locals instead of mega truck stops with tons of people. Safe Travels.
The aerial shots showing the vastness of her surroundings, show you just how small and insignificant we Humans are ! Again, beautiful shots of the topography ! 🌥️ 🌲🌲🌲🌳🌲 ....🦌 🏍️
Being a Canadian, but born in Montreal, Que... I was happy to see and hear the wonderful way you've captured another cool region of our country before your Alaskan tour. I had the great pleasure of living in Dawson City, Yukon not to be confused with Dawson Creek... another beautiful town in British Columbia/B.C. (TV show) So many super memories helped by many well filmed images... PEACE, LOVE, and HAPPINESS to Itchy and her Boots... "AND EVERYONE ELSE ON OUR PRECARIOUS PLANET"... a big SMOOTCH to you !!!
Riding in vast wilderness gives one a sense of calm and reflection that many never get to experience. Have had many rides like these myself. Thanks Noraly. Ride safe sister ♥️
Another gem! Love the banter and the stores you tell . I'm reminded of when I went on a job at a radar site situated within the Makah Indian Reservation at the very northwest tip of Washington State (and I saw Canada across a river). I had a great breakfast at a small diner 'in town,' it was just steak and eggs but wonderfully prepared. The local scene outside was one of poverty and yet dignity. So memorable. Your travels are unique and your 'can do' attitude and always bright spirits deliver the kind of show we all need to see so much. There is much humanity in this word if we would just go out and see it!!! Cheers always and all the best to you!

I'm excited watching your video.
My husband and I used to live in watson Lake , we bought the esso and made a Tags and 24 hour truck stop there..
The background info you gather at the places you visit is fantastic. Very educational, as well as entertaining. Nicely done.
I was surprised by Keno. Things looked initially ramshackle and, well, unkempt. But it was actually friendly and interesting. The guy at the restaurant actually offered to make a sandwich without hesitation. And that museum was great.
"But it was actually friendly and interesting".
I have always found those types of places are like that. Unlike most people in cities.
Well it's rural Canada not rural USA. They aren't stockpiling guns and eager to shoot strangers or introduce you to their nazi cousin.
I cannot imagine what it would take to get one of the buses/motorhomes repaired should they have a breakdown !!! Yikes~repair parts would take months to arrive ~
I'm so into those trail rides .... flinching every time a slippery bit comes up.Well done Noraly for not putting Alaska down in the mud.

A guiding light, that shines in the night, of course Noraly has a rainbow - it is always there to those that can see it.

If you have not received awards for your cinematography you should be at the front of the list of creators making some amazing content that is educational in a way that goes beyond the classroom. I truly have enjoyed being emersed in all these amazing cultures. People have been so kind and generous, it has really renewed my spirit and expectations for the future.
Wow! The drone footage at the beginning was great! The drone, flying through rain, and then a RAINBOW!!! Wow!
Itchy - your geology background adds a dimension to your channel that no one can compete with!
I love, love, the museum and the interviews with the locals...thanks for sharing that with us!
I rode the ALCAN Highway in 1975 on a CB500 twin, and your stop in Whitehorse reminded me of the trip, but so much of the road was unpaved then that you would have loved that. I remember being excited that I actually saw pavement, disappointed when it disappeared so soon as I left town headed to Alaska and Kodiak Island. It was a very difficult ride and the risks are what I remember in retrospect. The mosquitoes were awful, so I tried not to stop too much either. As I watch, I shake my head in wonder at the effort you are putting into sharing this and the beauty I am now reminded of in that awesome part of the world. It's a memory no one can take away from me, and I am appreciative of the way you are revealing the majesty of that stretch of the highway and the feelings it awakens in my heart. I went from Minneapolis to Kodiak and back in three weeks. Not enough time in there to appreciate all you are revealing, and that is what makes this part of your journey so compelling to me. It's a vicarious ride down Memory Lane. Thank you.
We are from Nova Scotia. Our Daughter is an Engineer in The Yukon. Her work takes Her to various mining sites and She has mentioned Mayo and Keno . We have been up to Whitehorse where She is based out of a few times but not that far north yet. Thanks for taking Us along for the ride.
I've watched all those Discovery channel shows. None of them would hold a candle to our Itchy Boots, and in the U.S., she would leave the competition far behind. She'd blast to the top of the ratings and she would stay there.
There is no contrived or fostered danger. She drops or sticks that bike in places most won't walk, all the time. She's gotten FAR too close to grizzly bears in the Alaska/ Canada outback. She got FAR too close to cartels in Central America and Mexico.
She's inspiring. (Just look at K.Long's post below )
She's as good of a producer as any on television and manages to do that on the road and on her own.
It's one of the most compelling shows ever. You always want to see if she makes it past this, thru that...and she always does with a cheery laugh and a smile.
I honestly can't imagine why this has not been snatched up by the big guys. They would try to ruin it, but our Noraly has the unstoppable power of being smart, tough, and just plain fun to watch. That's worth more than two Ace cards in the hole...
P.S. NEVER lose that intro music! It's instantly recognizable.
Hi Noraly, I am writing to you for the first time after meeting you for your stay in Mexico with the other superbike Sinewan. Thank you for showing us those great forests and small details of the Canadian towns. Great traveling spirit, I wish you the best on your route, I will follow you, a hug. Edgardo
The reason those RV 's pull their cars behind is because once they arrive at an RV site, they need a vehicle to tour the area. Because you cover such huge distances in the US and Canada, a second vehicle is an asset once you arrive at your destination and park your RV. If you need to leave the site for touring or shopping, your RV holds your spot on the site. Happy travels Noraly. 😍
@@robzilla69 I think it's more the size of the thing, motor home are huge in North America, would neven fit in many city in Europe, being on the road she does that for years, but with only few thing, it's more the concept of caring your entire house that blows her mind ;-)
@@robzilla69 She was , here, in Australia & we have a Caravan/Trailer/camper , nomad scene. Grey Nomads & backpackers are everywhere doing the lap of Australia .Plus huge Camper Vans /Traillers
Wait until she see's one of the RV's pulling a helicopter.
That tow behind car is valuable when your rv decides to lose it's transmission 45 miles west of Tok on the Tok cutoff. It let me drive home while the RV spent a month in Tok getting a new transmission installed...The Alcan, and remote Highways of northern Canada and Alaska are terrible and can eat an RV...
@@robzilla69 Her country is comparatively tiny. Nobody uses RV's to avoid motels.
Drone Eyes show us most magnificent views of the Yukon landscape and the background music makes it all the more dramatic - WOW !! This has come to be the signature cinematography of Itchy Boots. Wonderful !! And the ride takes us to remotest of places one can imagine, meeting local people and learning about their way of life makes the vlogs very interesting. Carry on Noraly, way to go !!!
And, one of the drone shots taken during some rain there was a rainbow seen below.
Once again…riding in a painting. The vastness is unbelievable. What a cool, interesting stop for lunch and a museum tour. The bottle house was so neat. As always, you have made a rainy, slippery mud day look adventurous and inviting. Big thumbs up🙂
Debbie, hope u r enjoying the yukon, it is so interesting ! be well, be safe, be blessed, gary.
Gold and silver were the magnets for much of the growth in western Canada. Minerals are still a big part of life in the West. Thank you for taking the time to highlight this. Mining is about 15% of GDP in the Yukon and about 5% of GDP in BC. Big country leads to big dreams, You are showing part of our history that many Canadians do not even think about. Thank you! 🙂
I am amazed at the epic solo productions you do Noraly. These videos are the highlight of my day. Don't know how you'll ever top this season! Thank you for all your hard work. As always, stay safe and happy trails!
Wow, I'm a huge fan starting today. So happy to find this. As a Yukoner you proved the journey is as interesting as the destination. Most Alaska bound blogs should just fly up to Anchorage instead of pretending they saw BC and Yukon.
Thank you!
From the comfort of my armchair, it's thrilling to see the Yukon landscape. The aerial views of the motorcycle moving through the vast wilderness is breathtaking and has me thinking how different my riding life is. Watching the video I can help but think how our choices affect our experience. The "simplicity" of the riding life you embrace is both attractive and unattainable for me. So I'm grateful to live the life vicariously through each of your episodes.
Thank you for again striking a chord of adventure in me. My Himalayan awaits my next mini-adventure!
the kid on his bike , stuck on the side wheels.still peddling, hilarious (9.02). oh, great video by the way.
Spent the last 3 years living and working in the Yukon, I'm so glad you're getting a chance to experience such a beautiful place!
When I see the aerial views of the Yukon it is very comforting - so much undisturbed country - vast and beautiful.
Love your take on the giant RV's. As my father used to tell us when we were kids, "That's what you call getting away from it all by taking it all with you!" Ride safe, and while I can't wait to see how this part of your global adventures closes out, I am at the same time sorry to see it come close to an end. However, I know Noraly that you have many more adventures to come and you will take us along along for the ride.
Another stunning episode Noraly! Your drone shots to music are always just sublime, your narrative fascinating, your spirit and attitude inspiring, and your editing skills just so professional.
My mood is always lifted after watching each episode.
Thank you SO much for sharing! x
As always love your drone footage, but capturing the rain drops and rainbows in this episode was quite special. Another stunning day's ride ... wow, Canada is as beautiful as it is vast! You really have such a knack of finding hidden treasures, places and people 🥰❤😍
u showed more local people in this video, love it ❤👌👍
Just found and subscribed. You're amazing. I retired 2 years ago and should get off my arsch. Thanks for the inspiration!
Do it! :-)
She is amazing, words can't describe the amount of positivity she brings to the internet
Traversing a vast, empty, lonely landscape; stop for lunch and dose of mining history, then onward for more! Drone shots give an excellent sense of the scale and distance. Thanks for showing us what few see in person.
Love your videos! Excellent filming and editing. Engaging storytelling too.
I want to live
I want to give
I've been a miner
For a heart of gold
I've been to Hollywood
I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean
For a heart of gold
I've been in my mind
It's such a fine line
That keeps me searching
For a heart of gold - (excerpts) Canadian songwriter Neil Young
I think we subs here have already found a Heart of Gold in Noraly. Happy Trails!
Cue the harmonica 😉 I’m going to be humming this song all day now 😅
Absolutely gorgeous country! Amazes me how beautiful Canada is!
Cheers. 👍🤗
It's not nice for 9 months of the year. Dark and gloomy short days. I'm from here and wish I could live in the tropics.
@@cornstar1253 Thats not true at all.
@@jaysmoke3132 i,’m Canadian and yeah SAD is a thing, but 9 months? Lmao it’s like 7 months of winter, 4 of which are fun and snowy, and the other 5 months are split between spring, summer and fall, which are obviously beautiful in their own right.
Really?
@@MrB00mbang What part of Canada do you live in where you get 7 months of winter?
I used to be annoyed by the big motor homes on the road, especially when I lived in Alaska where many of them end up going to. I then discovered that a lot of retired people are selling their homes and living on the road! When you pass one of those rigs you are passing their entire homestead. That gave me a different perspective on motor homes!
And it's great to see Americans enjoying their freedom!
And no property tax, which is quite onerous in some places. I wonder if Tennessee has lower vehicle registration costs, as Noraly mentioned two Tennessee-plated buses in a row. [Edit: Another commenter said these buses were part of an organized tour (evidenced by a yellow sticker on the bus), so maybe that's what the Tennessee licence plates were about.]
@@Chris-el7nn and bus?
Nice thought but not practical , A home is an investment where a motorhome is a money pit . most people I know who bought $200,000 plus motor homes were constantly pouring money into repairs after a year or so .
I am assuming Noraly is concerned about the 'madness' of these motorhomes' carbon footprint. Consider these motorhomes will not equal the amount of metric tons of Co2 in their lifetime that a jet plane will emit flying a motorcycle crate from England to South America. ItchyBoots = unsubscribed
It was really eye opening to think of those guys spending their whole lives in such a desolate area. I hope they still have days of great pleasure and I wish them good fortune. 🙏
Its home. Mike who made the sandwich is born and raised in keno. Keno honey moon capital of the yukon
Loving season 6! all the places you've visited are simply amazing! As an Ecuadorian-Canadian, I was so impressed that you had eaten plantains while in Ecuador and, many many kilometres later, you had a bagel and coffee at Tim Hortons in Canada, all by riding a motorcycle imported from the Netherlands. WoW
It’s good she tried our plantains in Ecuador, they are delicious! Also our bagels and coffee from Tim Hortons. I love them! She really enjoyed her trip all over Ecuador. Our country has many wonderfully places to visit😅
Another lovely and beautifully scenic video. RVs towing a vehicle may appear odd, but is actually very practical. They can park their RV for longer periods, and the RVers can still get around for short trips or getting supplies.
Because we can, Americans love having their home away from home with them. Many live on the road so it is their living house, wherever they go. Love have decent content. More rare these days and we love your positive attitude as well.
Thank you, Noraly, for taking us along on your adventurous rides, and showing us places we would otherwise never have a chance to visit in our lifes.
The Lunchaunette though...
👀 1 table
1 jukebox
And a ton of sofas to hang out.. Perfect😎👌😂😂😂
This is so good. You are a very likeable person and your interactions with the locals are always nice to see. I’d love to visit Canada one day, then Alaska, so watching this only heightens my resolve to get there.
Enjoying your back catalogue now, and looking forward to more of your adventures.
Thank you!
Rob, Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
Hey Noealy 😊
I'm from the USA... RV's pulling Cars/Pick-ups are a Norm here in the US...I say whatever makes a person happy good for them...Live and Let Live 🚌🚗
It tickled my heart to see you having breakfast at Tim Horton's, you are officially a Canadian!! Congratulations....
When I retired in 1991 I traveled to all 50 states and Canada in a RV (bus) towing my Jeep. I would park my RV and use the Jeep to explore. It was my home for 5 years. I wish I still could. I enjoy watching your adventures.
Did you have to disconnect the Jeep's driveshaft? If so, was that difficult. Just wondering why they don't use trailers.
@@sid7088 a Jeep (wrangler)requires that that it be placed in neutral. I did not use a trailer as that is just more cost in license fees.
I like the way the dog showed you where to go. No barking or aggression, just welcoming.
That is the way of the north.
The north is such an amazing place.
Northern British Columbia, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Alaska just have a way of getting into your soul.
Very hard to describe this feeling - it's just something you have to experience firsthand.
Loving all of your Canadian videos, Noraly!
Greetings from Ontario.
P.S. Your Tim Horton's breakfast stop was such a "Canadian moment" LOL
I've had many of those same bagel breakfasts myself!
Noraly's an honourary Canadian by now - she's allowed to call it Timmies
@B D weather that is nigh on unsurvivable in the winter months
@B D That’s why it is amazing - no people!
So agree -did this trip twice in the 80s to Wasilla from Ore lived a couple of years there Got in my Soul
Somehow, I've watched alot traveling channels but this one by far my most favorite channel, so true, so real, so live! I really enjoy your video going places, Noraly! I wish you always well.
This was one of your best videos I got to see my old friend Mike Mancinni . He was the one who make your sandwiches . He used to live on Vancouver island for al long time , and moved back to the Yukon. Thank you for showing him, brings back memories
Extremely interesting, you are feeding my hunger to travel more on my motorcycle, at 67 if I could spend everyday on my bike I would … thanks for all the inspiration .. totally awesome 💕
The trail breaker Rockon @ 25:00 brough memories when Matt and the guys team were restoring Ed's Rockon
I loved how you pronounced Tim Hortons. Priceless!! I dub you an honorary Canadian citizen!!
Rain, Shine, mud or Snow, there she rides showing up the scenery and things we would not see otherwise. Thank you, Noraly.
Priceless 🥰. That was my first love at the snack bar. M.M. Haven’t seen him in 30 years. Thanks so much for this video ❣️❤️
Keno City Snack Bar is easily in the top ten of of fascinating eating places of Itchy Boots, and that's really saying something.
That was a damn fine looking sandwich!👍
Whenever I hear that music then I know we about to get the much awaited beautiful drone view 😍
I'm always amazed how Noraly can keep that machine upright while traversing that greasy mud! She is a very accomplished rider.
Indeed. It is even evil at times when you have 4 wheels under you. Been there, done that.
Gracias Noraly, por tu encanto y tu carácter alegre, donde nunca falta una sonrisa en tu rostro, y una mirada que nos ilumina el día. Estoy siguiendo todas la temporadas, vi la S 2 desde Tierra del fuego, hasta Perú, seguí con la S 3, por Islandia y norte de Europa, también vi la S 4, entrenando con distintos tipos de motos, esperando seguramente que la pandemia permitiera los vuelos y voy por el episodio 12 de África. También estoy siguiendo tu actual viaje por el Yukón. Seguiré los sucesivos episodios, atrasados hasta el presente. Gracias, con mi esposa, te consideramos parte de la familia. Cariños. Mar del Plata Argentina, octubre 14 de 2022.
Adventure redefined.. Dreams delivered.. Happiness revisited.. 👏👏👏👍👍
Beeindruckend…und alles allein. Respekt 🙏🏻💪🏻
Noraly, the places you are traveling through now are magnificent in their beauty and simplicity. And the people you meet are as simple, good, true and majestic as the places you travel through. It seems like an eternity until the next episode. Once again, as always, thank you for taking us along on your travels.
"So you are retired? No only tired now" 🤣 Priceless............. Maybe you also inspired that kid to spin his bicycle in the mud 🚲
No greater demonstration of courage is has been seen than breakfast and coffee at Timmy's :)
It is just so great to be following your adventures. Somehow, they feel like the viewers are with you. Excellent views and interesting topics. Take care and Godspeed.
Spectacular drone footage once again. The shots along the Silver Trail in "follow me" mode were awesome. It appeared to be raining and the drone was picking up the rainbow across the lower left made it unforgettable.
The snack bar, the fish place in Baja, you have some excellent dining adventures.
Cool little tour of Keno City, you were lucky to get a lunch in that small of a place,and it looked good to boot. Take care
bravo Noraly excellent filming and drone was awesome as always thank you blessings
Buenos días a todos quienes vivimos este hermoso viaje junto a Noraly, a disfrutar de todo lo que Ella nos enseña a travez de su vivencia con Alaska y sus cámaras. Viaja seguro cuídate aliméntate y descansa. La vida es sólo una.
As always, another great adventure Noraly, thanks for sharing!
It's amazing some of the unusual places you find in the little towns and boroughs and all the people you meet seem very nice and accommodating. I find it fascinating and I learn something new every episode. It's so cool.
It’s great seeing the Yukon through your eyes! And your drone was flying over the rainbow!
The rainbow drone shot was amazing!! Loved it, great work!!
Amazing woman doing what millions wish they can do. Stay safe.
Your efficiency as an international traveler is nothing short of brilliant and positively awe inspiring. Another great video. Thank you Noraly.
It’s so much fun to stop at little eateries, especially one with a friendly dog. My last trip to Colorado, I took 50 through Kansas and Colorado to the Western Slope instead of 70. It was so much fun and a more relaxing/enjoyable way to travel. I ate yummier food and met locals instead of mega truck stops with tons of people. Safe Travels.
Pure class as always, and I love how you only meet dogs named Buddy. :) That muddy road looked...ruff. (Sorry, I couldn't help myself!)
Some of them are Doggo.
The aerial shots showing the vastness of her surroundings, show you just how small and insignificant we Humans are !
Again, beautiful shots of the topography ! 🌥️
🌲🌲🌲🌳🌲
....🦌 🏍️
In every episode I wait in anticipation for the stunning drone footage, just awesome job Noraly
Wondered if it was going to come as the road was quite straight and 30 seconds later it started. It is part of the editing formula now!
Being a Canadian, but born in Montreal, Que... I was happy to see and hear the wonderful way you've captured another cool region of our country before your Alaskan tour. I had the great pleasure of living in Dawson City, Yukon not to be confused with Dawson Creek... another beautiful town in British Columbia/B.C. (TV show) So many super memories helped by many well filmed images... PEACE, LOVE, and HAPPINESS to Itchy and her Boots... "AND EVERYONE ELSE ON OUR PRECARIOUS PLANET"... a big SMOOTCH to you !!!
17:30 Man, that must be a Flintstones snowmobile....😂😂😂
Loved the drone footage with the rain and rainbow.
Riding in vast wilderness gives one a sense of calm and reflection that many never get to experience. Have had many rides like these myself. Thanks Noraly. Ride safe sister ♥️
Again I’m loving your adventure and this one reminds me of the interesting things to explore in my own area.😊❤
You seem to strike gold at every turn on your fabulous journey.
Good to see you doing okay Noraly ride safe always❤
Another gem! Love the banter and the stores you tell . I'm reminded of when I went on a job at a radar site situated within the Makah Indian Reservation at the very northwest tip of Washington State (and I saw Canada across a river). I had a great breakfast at a small diner 'in town,' it was just steak and eggs but wonderfully prepared. The local scene outside was one of poverty and yet dignity. So memorable. Your travels are unique and your 'can do' attitude and always bright spirits deliver the kind of show we all need to see so much. There is much humanity in this word if we would just go out and see it!!! Cheers always and all the best to you!
