When a person is breathing their last (and it comes for us all), they don't say stuff like "I should have worked on Sundays." or "I took too many vacations."

Me and them 12.6k+ subs are waiting for the next update.
Every week you show incredible scenery, each week even a bit better than the last, but this week... I'm not even sure how to explain how beautiful that was....WOW! Have fun on your journey and be safe, and as always, thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it, Jackie. I often say, the scenery out here does most of the work for me, I just have to put it into a tiny box and it rarely, if ever, fits inside. Thanks for watching, I know for a fact that we'll have another beautiful place stuffed into a box for you next week. 🤗
EPIC shots. Often have said before we travel in retirement (8-10 years) i need to get some drone skills, as it greatly enhances travel experience. This vid displays that SO well. Excellent stuff.
Love the laughter!! So happy for you guys that you travel so well together and treasure each moment .. okay, MOST moments! (There are those when Meg says, "This is me not having fun anymore!" 🤪)
Great to see you moving again and here is to sending positive vibes for no breaking down for a while. We’re going sailing in a week so let’s hope we don’t have too many problems ourselves. We’ll be switching over to the van in August to go see Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan in concert. Cheers and safe travels.
Just catching up with you guys after getting back from our own adventures. Amazing views! I enjoyed the watching the exploits of “Adventure Alex” and “Make-It-Happen Meg”!
Not sure if you know Dustin Porter ( Destination Adventure) but you probably pasted each other because he just left Stewart recently. I’m in love with that entire area. Beautiful and historic! Wishing you both the best trip EVER!!!!!!!❤🙏🏼☝️✌️
Absolutely stunning videography....Majestic indeed!! Found myself looking at Real estate Close to Hudson Bay Mtn (formerly Smithers ) Coming closer to retirement and not sure yet where I will call home base....but after seeing whats close to Smithers for adventure...its on my radar ( thank you) I am a skier and snowboarder...summer kiteboarder and my idea is to do a truck conversion similar to your friends rig....As for the Narrator....(Top Notch) p.s Glad you had to wait for your new Camera equiment....( lol....) but in all honesty I am NOT alone...Cheers, Warmest of regards 1000 islands Canada
Wow 🤩 I’m from just outside Hazelton in kispiox bc, you would’ve passed through here going to the mitten main on through the 37, if I’m correct I actually saw your van in Smithers when I went to get groceries and told my wife that’s what we need except a bigger van 👍🏾 we have 5 children and are outdoors people 👍🏾 Thanks for sharing and what’s the chance of seeing your video 👌🏾✊🏾👍🏾 from a native friend in northern bc..
Oh man, this is so awesome! You probably did see us. We were marooned in Smithers for about two weeks while waiting in parts. We did roll through Kispiox, it’s a nice spot! Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@SlowRoamers yes absolutely great to have come upon this video 👍🏾 I wish you both all the best and safe travels, I showed my wife and she remembers seeing your van in Smithers, not another like it. Thank you once again,and definitely gotten a new subscriber 👍🏾✊🏾👌🏾
You're definitely making yourselves familiar with the North Wet corner of BC, I've lived in Terrace for 44 years, exploring the environs whenever possible. Lately, it's been on my 2006 650 Suzuki. I had a job delivering the mail to Stewart for a Year, in a Chevy Van with a 2.8 lithe diesel. It's a fine steed to tour in.
We just discovered your channel and love it! We were on a roadtrip that took us to the stunning Salmon Glacier a couple of years ago. This video brought back great memories.
I’ve been following you for the past two years and this was probably my favorite video so far! Amazing cinematography, story telling… and what a great choice of music! Thanks for bringing us along
That’s awesome!!! I’m stoked that you enjoyed it AND the music, oddly enough there are ppl that like to tell me my music choice sucks. Thanks for being a long-time follower, it’s awesome knowing there are those that enjoy our stuff enough to stick around for that long!🙌🏻🙌🏻

These videos are awesome, but I’m wondering if your view metrics might improve if they were a little less long? Just a thought. How does a vlogger choose the ideal video length? Wishing the best ❤
Perhaps, but I think it's more to do with other factors. Every creator needs to figure out how much of what they create is for them and how much is for the audience. I find 15-20 minutes gives me enough time to tell the story I want to tell and I can get enough footage to fill that 20 minutes in the 5 days of shooting that I usually have for each video. If I create an engaging enough video, the time that it takes to tell the story shouldn't be as much of an issue any longer.
I been following your content for the last year. Definitely can tell a difference with the sharpness of the camera. What canon did you have and what camera did you swap it for? The sharpness of her in front of the snow cave is the sharpest shot I have seen thus far.
I had a Canon R8 and by no means was it a bad camera. I would have continued to shoot with it and been perfectly happy if it wasn’t for the malfunction. That said, Sony seems to be far more geared towards video creators and the autofocus amongst other things have really helped me step up our level of quality on the channel. As for the shot, really good lighting and a white background will do that. But I certainly don’t disagree. Thanks for watching and following along!🙌🏻
@SlowRoamers The R8 is a good camera my friend shoots with an R7. I currently shoot with a cannon EOS R and Sony a6500. Both are great cameras. The cannon just has a higher max ISO. I've also seen a lot of RUclips's using the cannon EOS M all around a good camera and inexpensive. The Sony a7 series are great cameras I do more still photography currently so I can't comment on video quality but your videos have always been great quality. Keep it up might join you guys when my express is ready
@@DJZach22 i would have been happy to be blissfully ignorant, but after making the switch I don’t think I’ll be going back unless I bought another 5D mk4, I loved that camera, but sold it to buy the R8. Welcome to the Express club, catch you out there!🙌🏻
A friend of ours passed on the information of its rough location. There’s not really any further info. Its likely collapsed at this point, it was melting pretty quick.
You’ll have to hike straight up from the view point. It’s situated behind the power line to the east. We followed a snow trail most of the way up, it might be a challenge to find without it though…🫤
I just wanted to say thanks for not going with the "default setting" of receeding glacier due to cl_____ ch_____. Cant have that discussion without weather weaponization. Anthropomorphic effect? YUP. We have some impact, but cycles, cycle....and it is refreshing to not have soemone go right into "mode" . Regards. R
I certainly do believe in climate change and see the effects of it, but I also try not to delve in political or polarizing topics in our videos. And CC is certainly both of those. What we hope to accomplish with our videos is to inspire people to go and find their own adventure and to show just how much beauty is out here. Thanks for watching and I hope you continue to enjoy our videos.😊

We are glad you enjoy them! Thank you so much for watching 😊
Your mother is very grateful. Grateful also that you are still seeing this glacier. What incredible scenery.
We were in awe the whole time we were there, it was spectacular. Meg was also very grateful for my decision to be cautious around that glacial cave 🫠
WOW! Just stumbled across your channel, so jealous that you guys are living my dream life. Can’t wait to delve deep into older episodes!
Glad you found us, Stuart and thank you for watching and following along. Enjoy the rest of the videos!🙌🏼
Amazing cinematography, as always! We sure live in a beautiful world. Glad you're seeing it!

Hey Dale! Glad you found us, thanks for following along. Glad we have you a smile.😊
