So what have we learned today? … not to let Jim use the Bronco😂😂
Haha Linda. Cynthia absolutely will not let me touch hers and rightfully so. Mine is so scratched up already.
@@WingsandWheelsAlaska Now, the question that must be asked is who is having more fun with their Bronco??
I used to do this as a kid in Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado. We called it aired down and winter spinning. Sometimes we would pull a 50 ton dump truck inner tube and try to bounce each other off. Wouldn't do that part now! Still lots of fun. I enjoyed this video a lot! Thanks to you and Ms. Cynthia!
Congratulations Jim! The Raptor is awesome! Would love to see your review on it.
Jim, it's good to see you out and about, even if it's really cold outside. I liked that you mentioned that you grew up out there and that your family has a hunting cabin near there. One of these days, you should sit down by the fire and tell us all some of those stories. I'm confident that everyone would enjoy hearing them.
Seeing you drive right by the glacier was amazing! I've only been up close to glaciers a few times, and it's always incredible the blue that they are, and seeing you walk through the glacier was just magnificent. You're so lucky to be able to do things like that. The scenery with the mountains was also incredible. It truly is remarkable country up that way.
The night driving shots revealed one thing I've never liked about the LED headlights. There's a clear termination line where the light cuts off. It's not a problem in many applications, but on less-than-level roads, this gives oncoming drivers the feeling that you're flashing your high beams at them when you really aren't. The older halogens didn't have that problem.
Thanks for bringing us along Jim. Please be sure to tell Cynthia hi for me.
Hi Brian! Always great to hear from you! I love going out in that area. I’ll save the hunting stories until we get to sit around a fire together :).
I agree I am not a huge fan of LED lights either but it seems like they are the new “thing.” Did you see the moose when we were on the way back? The other Bronco had his brake lights on and it was crossing up into the brush. We saw about 15 out there but too far to get good shots of them. I wish it would have been a clear day but the snow made it more challenging. Hope you are doing well!
Fun!
But would have been even more fun in the Van. LOL
Trying to ease up a little bit on wear and tear on the van. The van can make it as we have done that but if I have an alternate to take out there then that’s the plan unless we were staying out there!
But wouldn't it be fun to do donuts in the ice?! (yes, I understand tho) :) @@WingsandWheelsAlaska
Beautiful, scary, and exciting. Good to see you back. Yukon and Alaska are my favorite places. I tent camped there and back twice . Now in my 80s can't anymore . I travel thru you now. Been with you since you picked up your van in Oregon.
To cold for this FL boy lol cool video stay safe
Definitely was cold! We are starting to warm up slightly now though (in the 20’s). Spring is just around the corner!
Hi Guys,
Great video, love the snow...haven't seen it since 2012, but should see some in Aug when i take my daughter to New Zealand 'Queenstown's'
Should be fun seeing she's "Never" seen snow before...
So is Cynthia leading the pack and you're bring up the rear?
How do you both find the Bronco's?
Scenery is just beautiful.
You guys stay have and have fun
Your friend
James 'Perth Australia'
Looks like fun, hope to get up there with my 87 Grand Wagoneer one day.
You would love it!
@@WingsandWheelsAlaska visited the area twice, just need a job change.
Seems like you two have given up on vanlife you don’t seem to post anything anymore ?!
We have been lacking motivation to spend our time on filming editing etc. We are trying to push ourselves to do some more soon :)
Guys I am with you. Life is challenging never mind producing videos stay safe. ❤
So where are you guys ???????????
Fishing :)
Love you're films they are incredible nice , I love them , here in Europe in Belgium is imposseble , but I like to know what is the name of the music group in min 4:50 , super keep on makin movies
😂are you coming back soon?
We have a rough video sketched out but have had some personal things going on and some writers block. We are getting ready to head out and shoot some new stuff.
Good we have missed you
What CB radio(s) do you use in your Revel & Bronco??
Hi Tom. We use GMRS Midland mxt575.
@@WingsandWheelsAlaska If you're looking for some content, a video on how you have your radio installed and wired would be very interesting to have available.
