As a Canadian (Vancouver Island resident), I will use this Video Title as my excuse for not getting anything done today, this week, this month and maybe until next Spring. Thanks ! It feels great to be closed (a good time for some peaceful rest, haha) But seriously, thanks for all your work on this video, showing all this scenic beauty. I appreciate this, and the entire series.
Thank you for taking me with you on your trip. I have really enjoyed all your videos, your commentary, your humour but most of all the fantastic photography. The drone shots of your travels give a real idea of the vastness of the scenery and the stills of the animals were just wonderful. Once again, thank you for letting me join you once a week and for showing me such a fabulous country.
My Grand father homestead just north of Lloydminster in the 1900's in Sask. , he moved up from N. Dakota where his brother and him homestead . They drove wagon trains across North America.
Enjoying this episode again! It sad to see these wonderful days coming to a close. I truly hope you can go back again in 2025!! I can’t tell you when I have have enjoyed a trip or the company more. Each time I rewatch an episode dang, if there is nor something new that I missed the first time. Glorious glorious county. PS. I truly appreciate the fact😂 the you respond to your comments. It must be a big job, we appreciate YOU, it’s nice to know know you appreciate your fans 💕
I’m getting teary eyed knowing the Alaska trip has come to an end and I won’t be getting my weekly dose of Alaska. I have thoroughly enjoyed traveling with the 2 of you. You are entertaining, informative and just clean fun. Thank you so very much for allowing us to go with you. I look forward to seeing all of your future endeavors and adventures. Enjoy spending some time with your family and getting back to your “home”. You will feel like you are living in a mansion after all this time in a smaller setup. Take care and may God continue to bless both of you.
Thank you so very very very very much for sharing your adventures (my dream) so I can at least see and experience what I won't be able to do. So ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! Enjoy those grandbabies and sleeping late!
Great video, edits, beautiful drone videos and music “as usual”. The Jade store. I was smiling when you compare it to the Wall Drug store in SD with signs over at least 100 miles distance 😂. It seems everyone has been there. Like your boondocking spots close to the water, so beautiful, really epic overnight spots. I guess Starlink is a winner in those areas. Whataburger - I guess you miss it 😂. What a great journey 16000 miles, just wow! You guys rock! Btw: with my Greek background I love you named your toad ARTEMIS - the goddess of wild animals, the hunt, and vegetation - very fitting.
The Canadian scenery is breathtaking and I'm feeling a bit sad that your great Northern adventure is over! I console myself with knowing you will have further adventures that you will include us in.
It is beautiful north of the border but you are correct, there will be more travels and sights to behold but we'll be doing it in our Big Rig. Glad you're along on the journey. 😊
I like Integra tire. I live in Kamloops BC and Integra Tire has been great for us. That was crazy filling up and then nothing. Jeez!! Love seeing the places you have gone to. 😊😊
I don't know where to start. I love this road trip and I love the videos and editing and I also love the length of the videos. I love watching you two interact and look forward to the next trip. Better then T.V. Thank you!!!❤❤❤👍👍👍
Welcome back to the lower 48! I thoroughly enjoyed all your Alaskan, Arctic, Yukon and Canadian adventures!! You guys rock!! Dave I’m gonna miss your Arctic jokes, lol
Those fall color shots were spectacular! David saying, "In these parts a fuel station could be a religious experience if you are low on fuel." is so quotable! The devastation from the fires though 😳 I'd ask, "how'd the mouse get in?", but it got cold out, it's an RV, and it's a mouse 🐭 Funnily, we were going into Saskatchewan/Alberta at the same time as you were leaving - maybe we passed each other. Definitely the land of farms! Portal is a huge crossing for hunters from the USA, not much of a town. The little ticket to use the exit gate is unique. Welcome home and thanks for sharing; it has been interesting and entertaining!
I'll bet the mouse got in the slide area since it was misaligned. We had a cat toy that caused a bump out in the slide rubber seal and that's how we think one got in ours. A Victor snap trap and peanut butter got rid of em quickly. Thank you!!!
We think the slide is the mouse entryway. Lots of hunters through Portal. They were the only ones who asked about game or hunt animals being brought back. Fun trip... we're ready for what's next.
WoW, what a great series!! Looking forward to the next adventure. In terms of the moose, there have actually been a numer of on-going research projects aimed at determining why the moose are moving south into farm land. They have been placing collars and trackers on them. They seem to enjoy the crops (peas, flaxseed, oilseeds etc). The area is free of their natural predators - bears and wolves and there are areas where there is water and they can find shade when needed. Interestingly they have found that some of the moose they have tagged wander everywhere and others never move outside of a 10K radius. Their numbers are incrasing in Sask and decreasing in BC and some of the northern US states.
Can I say - I got teary on your behalf saying good-bye to Canada and Alaska? Thank you both so much for the commentary, pictures - both motion and still - with those of us who are not likely to get there in person. Living vicariously, I now appreciate the 'dad' jokes more, and yes, Sondra even the ones that you made inadvertently, and the skill that is required from both of you to get the footage and produce the videos. Have a lovely break, and looking forward to next adventure you share with us all!
Thank you, Meredith. Your comments mean a lot to us. We love this lifestyle and since our home has wheels, we tend to use them so our next adventure is just a week away!
I dont normally comment on videos but wanted to tell you how much I have enjoyed the trip and thenk you for taking me a long. Just love the photography, the wildlife and the entire adventure...yes even the puns. 🙃
I looked forward to your Alaskan videos. I thoroughly enjoyed tagging along with you two via RUclips. Thank you for the amazing views, the beautiful photography, the good humor and the pleasant attitudes when things needed to be repaired. One aspect of your videos that I really appreciate is the lack of drama. You under-react to the difficulties and emphasize the adventure and the experience. Thank you!
@40:22 - "We are in southern Saskatchewan ... I feel like we're in Nebraska or something." The Great Plains are amazing! The scenery looks the same from Texas to the Tundra. It took me a long time to appreciate it but after living on the edge of it for decades, it feels like home. Great video series, David and Sondra. We've enjoyed watching your whole trip to Alaska and the Arrrctic Ocean! Thanks so much for putting it together and welcome back! Sure hope you didn't smuggle that Canadian mouse into the US. 😄
Greetings and welcome back to reality. We also returned via the Cassier. Did the obligatory stop at Jade City and then onward towards Bell 2. They were in the process of getting power and phone after always running on generator and Iridium phones. Then we headed for Stuart and Hydar. Stayed overnight and had dinner siting outside at a great food truck speaking with the locals. A great evening. I fully understand your mixed feelings as you head for base camp. What a wonderful time you have had and I hope you understand the fun and pleasure you have provided for so many with your banter and fantastic photo and Drone expertise. Looking forward to more "SHINANIGANS". My best to you both.
There is something about Alaska that just sticks in the soul! Almost haunting . I was so young when I visited, I didn’t appreciate like I do fifty yrs later. So breathtaking. I see why people go back every Summer. By boat or RV 💕 This music is simply stupendous ❤️❤️👏👏👏 About the Sirius, my brother got a new car and the first year was free!! 🎉
@20:00 Jade City, I believe they have their own Discovery Channel show "Jade Fever". Possibly an RUclips channel (uncertain). Big, beautiful country. Safe travels.
I’ve loved following your Alaska & Canada adventures! Always too many cool things to comment on. I will mention that the absolutely LOVED that overnight you showed at about 25min. in this video! Gorgeous!!
That was such a cool spot, we could have stayed there for several days just taking in the scenery... but we had to go! Glad you enjoyed it and excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
Thanks for watching! Haha... as you can tell, it was not our intention to get paid for this. We do it for the memories and to help others find their own path.
Really enjoyed following along on your trip. Another advantage of the Cassiar heading south is the lower elevation. On several previous trips, there was lots of snow on the Alaska Hwy south of Watson Lake. The Cassiar was clear.
I just LOVED every video of this epic northern trip! David your drone work fantastic, Sondra your photography superb and the commentary between you two so entertaining! Thank you both for wanting to share so much with us, working hard at editing and oh I especially love the long videos! Bravo!
You got that right! It's always been that way. Worse when we were working at our jobs but now we know the adventure continues... it's just a different adventure.
By far, THE BEST RV/travel channel on RUclips! Thank you for the wonderful narration, breathtaking photos, reality checks, and even all the Arctic jokes shared during your summer travels. Love the fact that you show the great and not so great aspects of RV life. Thankfully, you haven’t “sold out” to Brooklyn Bedding and the rest for product endorsements! Keep up the great work and hope to see you on the road some day, maybe even at a Whataburger! Lol!
Thank you, Linda. You are too kind. It's how we travel, don't like drama but sometimes things happen. It's how you handle those times which tell the tale.
Great, awsome series, welcome back, looking forward to seeing the big truck again! You two just do a great job with explaining and making these videos, i feel like i just got back from Alaska. Keep up the awsome vids!👍
Interesting, coming across this video, having travelled to many of the same locations. Jade City, here in Canada, has its own television show...didn't know if you knew that? We did the Cassiar highway as well, went to Stewart, Hyder, then up to Salmon Glacier (well worth going). We took our truck & slide in camper up to Salmon Glacier, but your Jeep would be a much easier drive! Love the scenic views of the drone, thank for sharing them, along with the lovely music chosen while watching! Regarding moose, back when my kids were young, I use to 'hunt' moose, up along the Alaska highway, and in about 40 miles! Back in those days, we use to say there's a moose behind every tree, as they where so numerous, but that changed over the years, once the oil & gas companies fixed up the roads into the area...so much, where those same abundant regions, we would spend 2 weeks looking for a moose, and see none! There 'where' Bison in the same region, and on my very last trip, we won (got, in a lottery) what was called a 'Group hunt' for two Bison, either gender. Thus, as we all typically know, when you're offered something like that, you see NONE! But on one of our last days before heading home, one partner and I travelled a long distance from camp, and near the end of the day came upon two Bison, so we filled our tags, and I've never hunted since, as our kids had grown (they grew up on moose meat) and one daughter was vegetarian, so sustenance of moose wasn't needed, so I chose not to go any more. All our hunts where in groups of anywhere from 4 to 8 people, so it fed a lot of people over the years of course. We got to learn how to 'call' moose (males especially have a particular grunt) of which I used once, to where a moose turned, and started running back towards us! My brother could call elk (there were many elk in the area as well) and got some nice one's over the years. As for eating, they love leaves, and will eat just the wigs on a tree if that's all that's available. In ponds, they will stand and eat the vegetation of the bottom of the ponds/lakes. Wolves are their main predator, and bears can be as well, especially when the little one's are born unfortunately. So, moose are vegetarians for the most part, and yes I've seen many many dead on the side of highways, along with deer, which are plentiful even more than moose. What a wonderful trip you had, and I'll be looking forward to the many other video's of yours I need to catch up on, and future as well.
I am from Québec, and still a fervent listener of both of you charming couple .For about 1 hour i travelled wih you and enjoyed your comments. Long live for both of you.
NO MORE ARCTIC! say it isn't so! LOL Such a beautiful video to wrap up this end of your journey. Welcome home and thanks always for sharing these moments of your lives! I live vicariously through you drone shots alone. Love from Rhode Island!
Thank you so much. We love sharing our memories and travels and are humbled when so many find it enjoyable. Excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it, Don. We loved it up there and especially in the Fall for the colors. We weren't expecting that kind of scenery. Thanks for the comment.
My wife and I waited with excitement for every new episode. What an amazing experience sharing your Alaskan journey has been and a huge thank you from Tasmania on allowing us along for the ride. we are looking forward to your next adventure.
Lots of moose on the prairies. They eat in the grain fields. Moose only started showing up here about 30 years ago. Now we’re getting bears and timber wolves
I am in Alberta but have never been to Alaska...so close!! You have made my summer vacation plans simple!! Thanks for all the info from your awesome videos!!
Nice. I think if you go to Alaska once... then you'll go again. It's a beautiful state with so many epic views and activities. Thank you for watching and enjoy your own trip in 2025.!
Coutts Alberta, Sweet Grass Mt boarder crossing is a easy access and open 24 hours next time you cross. Closer to Banff national park, Waterton national Park, which is also known as glacier national Park
Glacier National Park is a different park from Waterton Lakes National Park. There is a Glacier in BC and the other is in Montana. Glacier and Waterton Lakes share a border.
I've enjoyed watching your travels in Alaska. I was in the Army from 1972-75, stationed at Ft. Greely, and assigned to the Gerstle River Test Site, at M.P. 1393 on the Alaska Highway. I was discharged on 13Apr75, and drove home to Kentucky, on the Alaska Highway. Sadly we were young, and just out of the Army, so we didn't stop and smell the roses. We didn't see any of the things I've seen here. When you stopped at Gerstle River, and mentioned it was a favorite spot, that was good because I've been in that area before it was a place to stay. The area was flooded when you came through. Has that become a common occurance up there. I don't remember that ever happened when I was there.
Not too common. This flooding was caused by large amounts of ice and a quick spring thaw which clogged the flow. Neat area. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Man, what a trip!! That was so awesome to watch, I can’t imagine what it was like in person! I loved watching it all. I will say, I can’t wait to see you in the “Big Rig” again. I love that big setup. Thanks again for bringing us along for the ride.
172 days and almost 16,000 miles. We had an amazing trip and so glad everyone came along for the ride. 🤩 But there is no rest for the weary (i.e. me! 🥴) as we still the fleet shuffle to complete in the next video.
Would you please take a second to tell me where you got those glasses you're wearing at 36:55? This is the kind my mother is looking for and she asked me to drop you a note after we watched this video. Are they prescription or just sun shades? Even the color is what she wants. She'd prefer prescription capable but could wear over her regulars. Likes side wrap. And thank you both for sharing your journeys. She and I plan to do this trip. Happy travels! ~Susan (& Mom) in Colorado
Watching your Alaskan/Canadian travels with all the beautiful scenery, wildlife and oh... the Artic circle, Artic ocean was just awesome. The best part for me, is watching just hiw much fun your having , mouse and all LOL. Welcome back and as always wishing you both safe travels.
Thank you, Linda. We had a ton of fun on this trip. So many firsts for us and epic views along with being in the Arctic. Glad you enjoyed it and excited to have you along on the journey as always.
I enjoy your many ventures. You capture so many awesome views. I enjoy following you on you trips. You have a Beautiful class C. I have a fleetwood class c and getting some good ideas where to go. We are not full timers but we travel about 5-6 months out of the year
I enjoyed watching your journeys and adventures for months. Alaska was amazing to see through your eyes and lens. Thank you. It truly was an adventure to watch and enjoy, even if it was done while I ate popcorn from my couch and watched you guys on my big screen. Thumbs up big time. Great channel! 👍
Thank you for your amazing videos on your trip. I sure miss Alaska. Drove up the Alaskan HWY in 1974 to Anchorage where my family got stationed. Such amazing memories. ❤️🥰❤️
Come back anytime. Next time explore the foothills, northern Saskatchewan and suffer from the mosquitoes in Manitoba. Enjoy your winter and see you soon.
Thank you so much for taking me back to Alaska, to many places I have been to previously, and to many places I have never seen. I have loved every moment that you shared. Once again, thank you. 💖💖
Your site just came up today. Hi fr Vancouver Island Canada. Loved your video of your return from Alaska. I've been on a road trip to Yukon and peaked into Alaska at stewart/hyder to see the glaciers. Also cruised to Alaska and it's not the same as a road trip. I love the way you do your videos taking to each other. Great transitions, conversation, and music.
Oh, a road trip is much different for seeing Alaska. We think it's the best way if you have the time. A cruise is nice but just not much of the "real Alaska".
That was a wonderful trip. I enjoyed every minute of your videos. I'm kind of sad that it's over. Beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.
Thank you for watching the channel. We're excited to be able to share our experiences with everyone and to give back to the RV community. Really appreciate your comments.
Brilliant video, I suspect I'm the same as a lot of your viewers. You beautiful people are a part of my Friday schedule and I look forward to each new vid. Let the wattaburger count down begin. That restaurant is going to record sales that day. I was writing this message just before you mentioned the burgers. Hilarious
Thank you so much for sharing your travels. I eagerly waited for each video to come out and it's bittersweet this journey has come to a close. Arctic glad you did it? My dream trip and I have my Milepost sitting here on my desk....just waiting for my wife to retire. :)
As a Canadian (Vancouver Island resident), I will use this Video Title as my excuse for not getting anything done today, this week, this month and maybe until next Spring. Thanks ! It feels great to be closed (a good time for some peaceful rest, haha)
But seriously, thanks for all your work on this video, showing all this scenic beauty. I appreciate this, and the entire series.
😆 glad we can help! I'm sure all of Canada doesn't close but for RVers it sure feels like it. Enjoy the winter break! Thanks for watching.
How close are you to America?
@@tarotbyamber7233 we're back in the US and enjoying the holidays. Hope yours are merry and bright. Thanks for watching.
There is a movie in your videos. What a joy your videos bring to those who follow you.
Thank you. We enjoy sharing our experience.
Thank you for taking me with you on your trip. I have really enjoyed all your videos, your commentary, your humour but most of all the fantastic photography. The drone shots of your travels give a real idea of the vastness of the scenery and the stills of the animals were just wonderful. Once again, thank you for letting me join you once a week and for showing me such a fabulous country.
You're very welcome, Kate. Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching the channel. 😁
Your trip up to Alaska and the Arctic circle. They were some of the best videos I have ever seen. Thank you for taking us along God bless you.
Thank you so much for the gracious comments, Roger. We enjoyed the trip a lot.
I would have had mouse traps all over the camper. Lol. I despise those things. You guys have had some incredible sights all during your travels.
Next time, Deborah. The floor will be covered!
My Grand father homestead just north of Lloydminster in the 1900's in Sask. , he moved up from N. Dakota where his brother and him homestead . They drove wagon trains across North America.
Wow! That is cool. Beautiful area. First time through for us.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful adventure!
You're very welcome, Richard. We can't wait to see what's next!
This was an epic trip with you guys. Funny, entertaining, informative and over all fun. Thanks for taking us with you. God bless
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you taking the time to watch the channel. Thank you. 😃
I grew up in Fraser Lake, was the Deputy Mayor for 8 years. Also lived in Stewart in the 80's. Lots of great memories, thanks for sharing.
Very cool! Wow! We know important people now! Beautiful area. You were very fortunate to be able to experience it. Thanks
Enjoying this episode again! It sad to see these wonderful days coming to a close. I truly hope you can go back again in 2025!! I can’t tell you when I have have enjoyed a trip or the company more. Each time I rewatch an episode dang, if there is nor something new that I missed the first time. Glorious glorious county.
PS. I truly appreciate the fact😂 the you respond to your comments. It must be a big job, we appreciate YOU, it’s nice to know know you appreciate your fans 💕

Great spot! The colors are amazing.
wow cool ... i have been in the Yukon, BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan. Hope you enjoyed it all.
We did and it was all so different and very unique. Thank you for watching the channel.
I’m getting teary eyed knowing the Alaska trip has come to an end and I won’t be getting my weekly dose of Alaska. I have thoroughly enjoyed traveling with the 2 of you. You are entertaining, informative and just clean fun. Thank you so very much for allowing us to go with you. I look forward to seeing all of your future endeavors and adventures. Enjoy spending some time with your family and getting back to your “home”. You will feel like you are living in a mansion after all this time in a smaller setup. Take care and may God continue to bless both of you.
Thank you. It will truly seem huge! And great to be back... can't wait. See you next week.
Thank you so very very very very much for sharing your adventures (my dream) so I can at least see and experience what I won't be able to do. So ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! Enjoy those grandbabies and sleeping late!
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it and excited to have you along with us. It was a great trip... lots of miles for sure. More to see in the lower 48!
Great video, edits, beautiful drone videos and music “as usual”. The Jade store. I was smiling when you compare it to the Wall Drug store in SD with signs over at least 100 miles distance 😂.

Wow! Thank you so much. We really appreciate your comments. We can't wait to see what's next either!
Welcome back to the lower 48! I thoroughly enjoyed all your Alaskan, Arctic, Yukon and Canadian adventures!! You guys rock!! Dave I’m gonna miss your Arctic jokes, lol
😆 thanks, Mary. Sadly no more Arctic jokes... but we'll see what other areas we can visit that I can pun!
Those fall color shots were spectacular! David saying, "In these parts a fuel station could be a religious experience if you are low on fuel." is so quotable! The devastation from the fires though 😳 I'd ask, "how'd the mouse get in?", but it got cold out, it's an RV, and it's a mouse 🐭 Funnily, we were going into Saskatchewan/Alberta at the same time as you were leaving - maybe we passed each other.

We think the slide is the mouse entryway. Lots of hunters through Portal. They were the only ones who asked about game or hunt animals being brought back. Fun trip... we're ready for what's next.
Thank you both for allowing me to live vicariously through you both a trip I’ll probably never make. You two are special people.
Thank you. It was quite a haul for sure but really worth it. Glad you enjoyed it.
CANADA 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 = LOVE'S U VIDEOS hopefully u enjoyed Alberta's western 🇨🇦 🍁 canada hospitality ❤❤ Rimbey john scotty🎉🎉
Thank you. We enjoy Canada and Alberta. We'll be back for certain.
My grandfather always said, “Never go and come the same way twice”. That way you always have new things to look at ❤
Smart man! For us, the journey is truly part of our travels and we enjoy taking different routes for that very reason. 😊
I just continue to be awestruck with the scenery!
Us too! It's incredible. We didn't expect all the Fall colors!
WoW, what a great series!! Looking forward to the next adventure. In terms of the moose, there have actually been a numer of on-going research projects aimed at determining why the moose are moving south into farm land. They have been placing collars and trackers on them. They seem to enjoy the crops (peas, flaxseed, oilseeds etc). The area is free of their natural predators - bears and wolves and there are areas where there is water and they can find shade when needed. Interestingly they have found that some of the moose they have tagged wander everywhere and others never move outside of a 10K radius. Their numbers are incrasing in Sask and decreasing in BC and some of the northern US states.
They definitely go where the good food is and easy travels...except the roads! That's interesting, thanks.
Can I say - I got teary on your behalf saying good-bye to Canada and Alaska?

Great series! I’m spoiled now. I don’t think I can watch any other RUclipsr’s Alaska videos. You guys really know how to do Alaska! Thank you!👏👍
😆, Scott, you are way too kind but thank you for the comments. 😃 Appreciate your time watching the channel. What's Next?!?
Just wanted to say thank you for taking us along on your journey.
Our pleasure! So happy to have you along on the journey. 😊
I dont normally comment on videos but wanted to tell you how much I have enjoyed the trip and thenk you for taking me a long. Just love the photography, the wildlife and the entire adventure...yes even the puns. 🙃
Wow, thank you, Pam! We truly appreciate your comments. Glad you're along on the journey. 😊
Thanks for taking us along for the ride. The wife and I really appreciated all the time you spend to share this adventure with us.
You're very welcome, Travis. Thanks for watching the channel. 😁
Thank you we enjoyed your travels through Alaska a lot. Great video's.
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate the comments.
I looked forward to your Alaskan videos. I thoroughly enjoyed tagging along with you two via RUclips.

One aspect of your videos that I really appreciate is the lack of drama. You under-react to the difficulties and emphasize the adventure and the experience. Thank you!
Thank you, Julie. We enjoy the RV lifestyle and unfortunately, sometimes things happen.
So glad you 2 are back. Get your Whataburger fix! I'm so glad you 2 are safe!
Oh yeah... didn't wait too long. Thanks
Thank you for sharing Alaska with us. I was up there in the middle 60's in Anchorage and it has changed.
Oh wow! Just a little... glad you enjoyed it.
@40:22 - "We are in southern Saskatchewan ... I feel like we're in Nebraska or something." The Great Plains are amazing! The scenery looks the same from Texas to the Tundra. It took me a long time to appreciate it but after living on the edge of it for decades, it feels like home.
Great video series, David and Sondra. We've enjoyed watching your whole trip to Alaska and the Arrrctic Ocean! Thanks so much for putting it together and welcome back! Sure hope you didn't smuggle that Canadian mouse into the US. 😄
The plains are amazing but not everyone can appreciate their unique beauty.
Greetings and welcome back to reality. We also returned via the Cassier. Did the obligatory stop at Jade City and then onward towards Bell 2. They were in the process of getting power and phone after always running on generator and Iridium phones. Then we headed for Stuart and Hydar. Stayed overnight and had dinner siting outside at a great food truck speaking with the locals. A great evening. I fully understand your mixed feelings as you head for base camp. What a wonderful time you have had and I hope you understand the fun and pleasure you have provided for so many with your banter and fantastic photo and Drone expertise. Looking forward to more "SHINANIGANS". My best to you both.
Thank you very much. I like returning on the Cassiar. Stuart, Hyder is a neat area with great views and bears! See you next week. 😁
I like to tell you that I love your trip.Thank you for the good summer to me from Kitchener Ontario three hour from Detroit
Aloha,Stephen and thank you for the comments. Appreciate your time watching the channel.
Just WOW! Loved the whole trip. Jokes and all. Not sure we will ever be there so it is great to see it! Thank you! thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you taking the time to watch the channel.
What an adventure! Thank you for taking us all along with you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you taking the time to watch the channel.
I have enjoyed watching your journey. Living vicariously through you two. Keep doing what you are doing!
Thank you. We enjoy RV travel so that's what's on the schedule for the next ??? years. 😆
You are such a wonderful couple and love your videos and hope you will be back on the road filming soon!
Thank you for the gracious comments. We're always traveling so, next week! See ya!
Great video. Can't wait for the recap!
It's coming up soon... we're still compiling the info! Thank you.
There is something about Alaska that just sticks in the soul! Almost haunting . I was so young when I visited, I didn’t appreciate like I do fifty yrs later. So breathtaking. I see why people go back every Summer. By boat or RV 💕
This music is simply stupendous ❤️❤️👏👏👏 About the Sirius, my brother got a new car and the first year was free!! 🎉
It is an amazing place up there. We'll be back! We're just waiting on the Sirius to end but enjoying it while we have it!
Love this trip u guys been taken us so beautiful area up there keep show us more of these trips
Thank you! Will do! Each week we'll try to see some different places.
@20:00 Jade City, I believe they have their own Discovery Channel show "Jade Fever". Possibly an RUclips channel (uncertain). Big, beautiful country. Safe travels.
I think so. Some neat stuff inside. Thanks.
Great closing Alaskan video. ❤
Thank you. We did enjoy the ride.
Thanks for the " Vacation " it's been a terrific experience, love you guys , God Bless, hope you have the ' power' to do it again.
Thank you. Give us a few years and we'll be baaack! More to see below the border for a few years.
I’ve loved following your Alaska & Canada adventures! Always too many cool things to comment on. I will mention that the absolutely LOVED that overnight you showed at about 25min. in this video! Gorgeous!!
That was such a cool spot, we could have stayed there for several days just taking in the scenery... but we had to go! Glad you enjoyed it and excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
Thank you for sharing your fun!!!
Looking forward to watching more!!!
Until you are better paid
THANK YOU
Thanks for watching! Haha... as you can tell, it was not our intention to get paid for this. We do it for the memories and to help others find their own path.
Great trip, thank you for sharing your journey. I think we crossed through Portal also.
Nice roads. First time for us through Portal. Each station is unique. Thank you.
Really enjoyed following along on your trip. Another advantage of the Cassiar heading south is the lower elevation. On several previous trips, there was lots of snow on the Alaska Hwy south of Watson Lake. The Cassiar was clear.
Very true. I like the Cassiar on the return trip.
41:21 Moose eat vegetation, particularly young growing greenery - so farmland is their buffet. They consume 25-45 pounds of vegetation per day.
Thank you. We'd just never had seen them in the farmlands before. New experience.
I just LOVED every video of this epic northern trip! David your drone work fantastic, Sondra your photography superb and the commentary between you two so entertaining! Thank you both for wanting to share so much with us, working hard at editing and oh I especially love the long videos! Bravo!
😆 Sometimes there's just so much that it's hard to keep them under 40 minutes. Glad you enjoy them. Thank you
Thanks for an awesome trip and taking us with you.
You're very welcome, Carolyn. We've enjoyed every minute of it. Glad you were along on the journey. 😊
Thank you Sondra and David for showing us your beautiful trip this year Enjoyed all the videos
Thank you, Debra. We appreciate your comments. Glad you're along on the journey and sharing these moments with us. What's Next?!?
Alot of great drone views and pictures
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Always seems that once you hit that certain area on the return trip home you just want to get home!
You got that right! It's always been that way. Worse when we were working at our jobs but now we know the adventure continues... it's just a different adventure.
By far, THE BEST RV/travel channel on RUclips! Thank you for the wonderful narration, breathtaking photos, reality checks, and even all the Arctic jokes shared during your summer travels. Love the fact that you show the great and not so great aspects of RV life. Thankfully, you haven’t “sold out” to Brooklyn Bedding and the rest for product endorsements! Keep up the great work and hope to see you on the road some day, maybe even at a Whataburger! Lol!
Thank you, Linda. You are too kind. It's how we travel, don't like drama but sometimes things happen. It's how you handle those times which tell the tale.
Your drone shots are amazing. Your spot next to the lake was incredible.
It was amazing. Thank you.
Great, awsome series, welcome back, looking forward to seeing the big truck again! You two just do a great job with explaining and making these videos, i feel like i just got back from Alaska. Keep up the awsome vids!👍
Thanks 👍We can't wait to get back in the big rig again! More to come!
Interesting, coming across this video, having travelled to many of the same locations. Jade City, here in Canada, has its own television show...didn't know if you knew that? We did the Cassiar highway as well, went to Stewart, Hyder, then up to Salmon Glacier (well worth going). We took our truck & slide in camper up to Salmon Glacier, but your Jeep would be a much easier drive! Love the scenic views of the drone, thank for sharing them, along with the lovely music chosen while watching! Regarding moose, back when my kids were young, I use to 'hunt' moose, up along the Alaska highway, and in about 40 miles! Back in those days, we use to say there's a moose behind every tree, as they where so numerous, but that changed over the years, once the oil & gas companies fixed up the roads into the area...so much, where those same abundant regions, we would spend 2 weeks looking for a moose, and see none! There 'where' Bison in the same region, and on my very last trip, we won (got, in a lottery) what was called a 'Group hunt' for two Bison, either gender. Thus, as we all typically know, when you're offered something like that, you see NONE! But on one of our last days before heading home, one partner and I travelled a long distance from camp, and near the end of the day came upon two Bison, so we filled our tags, and I've never hunted since, as our kids had grown (they grew up on moose meat) and one daughter was vegetarian, so sustenance of moose wasn't needed, so I chose not to go any more. All our hunts where in groups of anywhere from 4 to 8 people, so it fed a lot of people over the years of course. We got to learn how to 'call' moose (males especially have a particular grunt) of which I used once, to where a moose turned, and started running back towards us! My brother could call elk (there were many elk in the area as well) and got some nice one's over the years. As for eating, they love leaves, and will eat just the wigs on a tree if that's all that's available. In ponds, they will stand and eat the vegetation of the bottom of the ponds/lakes. Wolves are their main predator, and bears can be as well, especially when the little one's are born unfortunately. So, moose are vegetarians for the most part, and yes I've seen many many dead on the side of highways, along with deer, which are plentiful even more than moose. What a wonderful trip you had, and I'll be looking forward to the many other video's of yours I need to catch up on, and future as well.
Sounds like fun. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Neat to hear about your other experiences from the past.
I am from Québec, and still a fervent listener of both of you charming couple .For about 1 hour i travelled wih you and enjoyed your comments. Long live for both of you.
Merci beaucoup for the gracious comments. We're doing good and we'll see you next week. 😁
Love watching your video seeing you go the miles and the smiles laugh at yourself and enjoy the moment
We sometimes only get one moment so it should count! Thank you. 😃
NO MORE ARCTIC! say it isn't so! LOL Such a beautiful video to wrap up this end of your journey. Welcome home and thanks always for sharing these moments of your lives! I live vicariously through you drone shots alone. Love from Rhode Island!
Thank you so much. We love sharing our memories and travels and are humbled when so many find it enjoyable. Excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
I,m glad you made that trip. I enjoyed the scenery in the summer months.
Glad you enjoyed it, Don. We loved it up there and especially in the Fall for the colors. We weren't expecting that kind of scenery. Thanks for the comment.
My wife and I waited with excitement for every new episode. What an amazing experience sharing your Alaskan journey has been and a huge thank you from Tasmania on allowing us along for the ride. we are looking forward to your next adventure.
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it and excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
Awe …. heading home . Rather bittersweet, eh? Absolutely stunning scenery up there! Thank you for sharing. I loved every minute and every mile! 💜😊
Glad you enjoyed it! We look forward to heading home but sad to see the trip end. Thank you
Lots of moose on the prairies. They eat in the grain fields. Moose only started showing up here about 30 years ago. Now we’re getting bears and timber wolves
Wow! We understand now but it was just a different setting for us to expect moose. Makes sense though with all the fields. Thanks
Glad you had a great trip !
Thanks! 😃 It was a blast.
I am in Alberta but have never been to Alaska...so close!! You have made my summer vacation plans simple!! Thanks for all the info from your awesome videos!!
Thanks for watching, glad we could help! You're closer than we were!
Sometimes next door is the most overlooked...been most everywhere else but not out the backdoor!! Safe travels and keep those vids coming!!👍
Loved following your trip videos. We loved our Alaska adventure and will be going back in 25!
Nice. I think if you go to Alaska once... then you'll go again. It's a beautiful state with so many epic views and activities. Thank you for watching and enjoy your own trip in 2025.!
Coutts Alberta, Sweet Grass Mt boarder crossing is a easy access and open 24 hours next time you cross. Closer to Banff national park, Waterton national Park, which is also known as glacier national Park
Waterton is a fav of ours
Glacier National Park is a different park from Waterton Lakes National Park. There is a Glacier in BC and the other is in Montana. Glacier and Waterton Lakes share a border.
Thank you. We've been through that crossing but we wanted to try a new route. Portal was a little shorter distance and allowed us to see Saskatchewan.
I've really enjoyed watching you adventures. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the gracious comments.
I've enjoyed watching your travels in Alaska. I was in the Army from 1972-75, stationed at Ft. Greely, and assigned to the Gerstle River Test Site, at M.P. 1393 on the Alaska Highway. I was discharged on 13Apr75, and drove home to Kentucky, on the Alaska Highway. Sadly we were young, and just out of the Army, so we didn't stop and smell the roses. We didn't see any of the things I've seen here. When you stopped at Gerstle River, and mentioned it was a favorite spot, that was good because I've been in that area before it was a place to stay. The area was flooded when you came through. Has that become a common occurance up there. I don't remember that ever happened when I was there.
Not too common. This flooding was caused by large amounts of ice and a quick spring thaw which clogged the flow. Neat area. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Man, what a trip!! That was so awesome to watch, I can’t imagine what it was like in person! I loved watching it all. I will say, I can’t wait to see you in the “Big Rig” again. I love that big setup. Thanks again for bringing us along for the ride.
Thank you, Gary. You won't have to wait very long! We're excited to get back in it too!
172 days and almost 16,000 miles. We had an amazing trip and so glad everyone came along for the ride. 🤩 But there is no rest for the weary (i.e. me! 🥴) as we still the fleet shuffle to complete in the next video.
Just don’t shuffle the mouse 🐁
Would you please take a second to tell me where you got those glasses you're wearing at 36:55? This is the kind my mother is looking for and she asked me to drop you a note after we watched this video. Are they prescription or just sun shades? Even the color is what she wants. She'd prefer prescription capable but could wear over her regulars. Likes side wrap. And thank you both for sharing your journeys. She and I plan to do this trip. Happy travels!
~Susan (& Mom) in Colorado
About how much did you spend running around all summer we want to try next year
Need to make a plan lol, no resting with the videos ok. Going to start watching this trip all over again, loved it so much
Thank you so very much for taking us on your travels. Another unforgettable trip. Thank you, till next time
what a beautiful trip. thank you for sharing with us.
Glad you enjoyed it and excited to see you each week.
All that scenery is so breathtaking!
It is gorgeous!
Watching your Alaskan/Canadian travels with all the beautiful scenery, wildlife and oh... the Artic circle, Artic ocean was just awesome. The best part for me, is watching just hiw much fun your having , mouse and all LOL. Welcome back and as always wishing you both safe travels.
Thank you, Linda. We had a ton of fun on this trip. So many firsts for us and epic views along with being in the Arctic. Glad you enjoyed it and excited to have you along on the journey as always.
I enjoy your many ventures. You capture so many awesome views. I enjoy following you on you trips. You have a Beautiful class C. I have a fleetwood class c and getting some good ideas where to go. We are not full timers but we travel about 5-6 months out of the year
Awesome, thank you, Edward! It's a nice RV for some of these road trips in tighter places. We have a few more trips planned in the future.
I enjoyed watching your journeys and adventures for months. Alaska was amazing to see through your eyes and lens. Thank you. It truly was an adventure to watch and enjoy, even if it was done while I ate popcorn from my couch and watched you guys on my big screen. Thumbs up big time. Great channel! 👍
Thank you. You were probably way more comfortable watching than we were a few times! Glad to have you along.
Thank you for your amazing videos on your trip. I sure miss Alaska. Drove up the Alaskan HWY in 1974 to Anchorage where my family got stationed. Such amazing memories. ❤️🥰❤️
You're very welcome. Alaska has definitely changed since 1974 but the beautiful scenery remains. Glad you enjoyed it.
Are you going to continue weekly uploads? I AM ADDICTED!!! I literally can’t wait to see you upload! BTBT is AMAZING!!
😆 Thank you. We're going to try each week. See you then!
Glad you all made it back Loved watching the adventures the whole way Can't wait to see what's next
Thank you, Travis. We're excited to see what's next as well... more travel... but a few things to do first.
Come back anytime. Next time explore the foothills, northern Saskatchewan and suffer from the mosquitoes in Manitoba. Enjoy your winter and see you soon.
Sounds good...except for the mosquitoes! We'll back one of these days. Beautiful area. Thank you.
I have loved every episode of this grand adventure ❤️
Thank you, Michelle. Excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
Thank you for sharing your adventure with us. We enjoyed it as much as you did. Can't wait for our trip in 2024. All the best!
Glad you enjoyed it! It will be a fun trip and I know you're excited to go!
What a gret trip you both have had! Thanks for taking me along!
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you taking the time to watch the channel, Gary. Thank you. 😃
Thank you so much for taking me back to Alaska, to many places I have been to previously, and to many places I have never seen. I have loved every moment that you shared. Once again, thank you. 💖💖
You're so welcome, Lyn. Glad you enjoyed it.
Hello from Nebraska, safe travels, God Bless you all. I just found your channel, thank you.
Welcome! Thanks for watching.
Your site just came up today. Hi fr Vancouver Island Canada. Loved your video of your return from Alaska. I've been on a road trip to Yukon and peaked into Alaska at stewart/hyder to see the glaciers. Also cruised to Alaska and it's not the same as a road trip. I love the way you do your videos taking to each other. Great transitions, conversation, and music.
Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed it. Excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
Oh, a road trip is much different for seeing Alaska. We think it's the best way if you have the time. A cruise is nice but just not much of the "real Alaska".
Welcome home! Thanks for all the great videos. Can't wait for the next.🙂
Thanks so much! 😊 see you next week.
That was a wonderful trip. I enjoyed every minute of your videos. I'm kind of sad that it's over. Beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.
Thank you, Phyllis. It was a great trip but we're also looking forward to what's next. 😀
Beautiful rig you have to do your thing in!! Very nice! Thanks for sharing your adventures!!
Thank you for watching the channel. We're excited to be able to share our experiences with everyone and to give back to the RV community. Really appreciate your comments.
This travel series should have brought your subs up to 100,000. Brilliantly done!!
Thank you, Anthony. It was a fun trip. Glad you're enjoying it.
Brilliant video, I suspect I'm the same as a lot of your viewers. You beautiful people are a part of my Friday schedule and I look forward to each new vid. Let the wattaburger count down begin. That restaurant is going to record sales that day. I was writing this message just before you mentioned the burgers. Hilarious
😆 Thank you, Brendan. Always appreciate your time watching the channel. Oh we definitely got my Whataburger fix!
Thank you so much for sharing your travels. I eagerly waited for each video to come out and it's bittersweet this journey has come to a close. Arctic glad you did it? My dream trip and I have my Milepost sitting here on my desk....just waiting for my wife to retire. :)
Nice. That Milepost is indispensable for an Alaska trip. Planning is half the fun... for me at least! I'll bet you can't wait.
