Midnight Sun. Never heard of that one before, but also never seen Alaska. Thanks for taking along with us Shawn. It's beautiful and serene so far. Can't wait for the next.
Absolutely amazing mate 👍 I am actually saving all my long service leave up for a trip to Alaska. I’m at 10 yrs now & hope to get another 10 before I go! Them I will have 6mths paid holiday in Alaska. It has been a life long dream for me . Love your channel & love your work. You are changing ppls lives & giving ppl inspiration in so many ways . Thank you.
Anything can happen in this world at random. While i admire your determination and ability to plan ahead, thats a long way off. I see this is a old comment but if you haven’t already if your finances allow you should go spend a week or two in the summer.
So loving this series Shawn sitting here with my dog Regal just thundering and lightening like hell! outside here in Florida all nice and tucked in with the rain pounding on the tin roof Thanks for a complete evening Shawn look forward to the next one
What an adventure! Loving this series. People ask me all the time about bears around here. I always say, "I can't wait to film one!" Not the response they're expecting.
Beautiful .... I remember the midnight sun when I visited the northern city of Inverness in Scotland back in June of 1984. We had set up our tents in a campground across from the city. Most of the fisherman on the River Ness were using two-handed salmon rods, whereby I was using my 9'3" 7 weight Orvis Advantage Plus. I even remember the streamer fly that I caught my 1st salmon on there ..... it was a fly developed in Maine called a nine-three ..... wish I had kept that fly for safe keeping, but I did keep my permits to fish the river. You are making memories, as well as recording them for your posterity .... all of ours, come to think of it. Digital cams and smart phones came way to late in my lifetime to have shared my adventures .... but I love sharing others. Take care and thanks much.
Watching this makes me think about all the beautiful places in this world that I’ve yet to see. I’m so grateful that things like RUclips exist, as they allow me to experience the far-reaching corners that I’ll likely not get to in person. Thank you for the footage; thank you for being selfless with it; and, thank you for being willing to do all the hard work that is required in order to make these videos happen.
another awesome part of the series, Nice that the locals watch out for you when you were heading out to fish beautiful water,s and scenery, what an adventure and great fishing.
The color of that water is beautiful. I’m not used to seeing other people around you besides the usual boys. Looks weird. Nonetheless what beautiful footage. Looking forward to the next. Cheers Shawn.
Whew! 1:00 your fast approach to the river's edge took my breath away! That looks like wild, dangerous water. 3:48 Ahhh, yes, more my speed 😄 lol 13:10 the color of that water!?! Beautiful landscape! Thank you!
Wild and raging rivers, vistas of green grandeur, and misty cloud covered mountains - thanks for showing us nature's magnificence! Glad you stayed safe and didn't go down the trail to the river at midnight!
NOW I LOVE ,alot of salami didn't make their journey back,they always go home to the same place to spawn,the bears love the time of year.THEY SIT by the rivers to catch,before going to sleep,love fishing very peaceful fly fishing SHAWN I'm with you deep,!🐾♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️trout like corn you throw some first ,then line the hook DINNER,MISSED Cali but enjoyed you outlandish is running very different now .LIFE is learning,and now all habitats,are learning,!🐾♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️☘☘☘🐾♥️
Amazing series to watch! I have never visited Alaska so following over there with your videos and views are kind of thrilling! Everything is so big and huge and high in Alaska compared to Sweden! Great series as always! Thank you, Shawn, for all the efforts you made for us your many subscribers to be able to enjoy your visit to Alaska! Highly appreciated, as always, whatever you do, you are doing so well! Greetings from Sweden!
One of my grandies asked me yesterday 'why do you like watching that man'? Told her because I like watching how someone builds something from scratch, plus I love the wildlife and wilderness footage and the lakes..Nature is the life!!!Been awhile since I went fishing & exploring..because I live in the prairies..Went from northern stock to southern life!
As popular as the Kenai river is and while not as wild and rugged as you might expect, I love the effort the take to keep the banks and wilderness around it pristine despite the number of people that go through there each year. Another great video :D
I had no idea that Alaska had mountains that big. Alaska is so beautiful and I bet it’s even more in perso. There strip to Alaska in my bucket list now. Thanks for the video that’s awesome
OK great video again, but I must agree with the majority the only thing that would have made it better is seeing Cali front and center!! She would have loved it and getting to play in the rivers!! Next trip must include Cali!!
Hey Shawn I've been following your video adventures for a while now, but Alaska is your best wildlife/scenery video. It brings back memories when I visited Seward and Denali for a month a couple of years ago. I definitely want to go back and experience the magic once again. I tell people who have Alaska on their bucket list to just do it, don't wait. It is indeed the last remaining wilderness. I know you would agree that it is an amazing experience! Thank you for your honest, hard work!
Shawn, your videography skills have gotten so much better since you started the channel. You really bring to life the essence of Alaska. I can't wait to move there someday, and to hopefully build a cabin of our own. Thanks for all that you do.
For a busy river it still is pretty private. Fast moving water reminds me of the mag. Footage of the bears is awsome. I've wanted to do a trip like yours for the last ten plus years. One day but for now I can live in the moment through your videos... Thank you for sharing.
Gorgeous place Shawn!! Just so dang beautiful even watching from my phone in KY.. I can’t imagine what that must be like.. stay blessed, stay safe, and God bless!
Awesome series Shawn. I knew where you were headed when you said you were gong to Alaska. Your episode at Dick Proenneke's cabin is a classic for the ages. You can know put a line through an item on your bucket list. It must have been magical for you to sit at Dick's desk and write. I couldn't help but see flashbacks to My Self Reliance videos of you building your cabin and watching Dick build his. Unbelievable trip!!!
Shawn, Having spent my youth reading white fang, call of the wild, Alaska has always been somewhere I’d like to visit. Watching your great videos has confirmed I need to start saving. Great work Shawn. Thank you again.
The views are amazing! Glad you referenced the time, especially because it was still light out late in the evening. Looking forward to the next beautiful videos....be safe.
Beautiful sights. I am looking forward to a more remote Alaska. Truly a trip of a lifetime. Thank you for sharing.
Midnight Sun. Never heard of that one before, but also never seen Alaska. Thanks for taking along with us Shawn. It's beautiful and serene so far. Can't wait for the next.
Love your videos, especially the forward shots. Makes me feel like I'm there. Thank you Shawn James for taking us to beautiful Alaska!

Love the series so far, other than not seeing Calie. She is missed dearly. Thanks Shawn
Beautiful , thank you so much for sharing you adventure , love and prayers from Indiana, U.S.A.
Thank you for caring about us, and showing amazing scenery.🤩😻🦌🌲🦜
What a fantastic ending. Great footage. love the series. Thanks Shawn!
You certainly know how to capture the suspense of Bears in the area !
Loving the videos. My 89 yr old Mom is watching it with me. She loves the scenery and seeing the fishing bears on the first video.
That’s the cleanest looking water I think I’ve ever seen!!!! Make me want to plunge in and drink my fill.🤗
That water color is spectacular. Love it.
Enjoying the series very much.
Beautiful- can’t wait to see the solo adventure!
Tranquil and serene, so calming and lovely!
Looking forward to watching all of the series

Haven't seen to much sunshine but that brings out the colors more it seems. Thanks Shawn
Around the time he was there, we were having a lot of forest fires. The sun is there, just muted because of all the smoke in the air.
Awesome scenery and so tranquil!!👍
I love the scenery! You look so happy and fulfilled!❤️❤️❤️
Gorgeous scenery, keep it coming Shawn!
Great views! That is a raging river and it looks like the rafters are enjoying it.

Stunning photos. Thanks for taking me along.
Seeing these video is always awesome view. Beautiful country. Thanks for all the hard work. Throughly enjoyed.
Great to see another video. Everything looks extra magnificent there in Alaska. Thanks for sharing. 🐠💞

Thank you so much Shawn for yet another beautiful episode of your nature documentary. 👍😁
Enjoyed the video Shawn. Look's like you and everyone had a safe and great adventure. Make it a great day.
The shot of you ascending the trail with the river on your left a 12:33 is EPIC Shawn!
Awesome stuff mate cheers from Australia shawn 🇦🇺💯👍
That IS high for the Kenai! I have great memories of camping on river islands in that river.
thanks for sharing Shawn nice serie
Where humans don't reside the land and rivers are completely unsullied. The colour of that river is so unusual. TFS. Oh, missing Cali!!!!
The river comes from Kenai Lake, and it's that color because it's fed from glaciers... SR
Thank you so much for such cool shots.
Living THE dream. Wonderful! 🏞️
Isn't it amazing the sound strength an flow of the water
As popular as the Kenai river is and while not as wild and rugged as you might expect, I love the effort the take to keep the banks and wilderness around it pristine despite the number of people that go through there each year. Another great video :D
You look so clean. Beautiful area
I had no idea that Alaska had mountains that big. Alaska is so beautiful and I bet it’s even more in perso. There strip to Alaska in my bucket list now. Thanks for the video that’s awesome
It is so beautiful... wow.. !
Breathtaking scenery,nice camera work Shawn.
OK great video again, but I must agree with the majority the only thing that would have made it better is seeing Cali front and center!! She would have loved it and getting to play in the rivers!! Next trip must include Cali!!
I agree, looks like we need to do a major road Trip!
Take Callie to Canadian Rockies
