    This is ABSOLUTELY one of my very favorite channels. Each video is informative, entertaining, and interesting... just chock full of beautiful sights, highlights of places to visit, and places to eat. Today's video is a perfect example. Everything flows so well together. I come away having learned so much. Thank you, Josh and "Pops". You did it again.👏🏻🤠🤠👏🏻

      Wow, thank you! Really appreciate that! We try very hard to be fun and informative so I am glad it comes across like that

    It’s always fun to learn the historical stuff of the places you visit. And Pops does an excellent job explaining everything. You guys are a great team! Excellent video as always 🙌🏽

    Hej
    I’m from Sweden and my husband and I spent a summer in west Canada 1977. We hitchhiked from Vancouver to White Horse. Spent midsummer eve there. Rented a canou and sent up Youkon River. What an adventure!
    So nice to see how it looks like now! Thank You!/ Monika

    Thank you for showing my old home, the Log Skyscraper. I lived in the territory for about 20 years from the mid 70's to mid 90's - and in Whitehorse for 5 of those years, where I lived in the one second from the top. I think that was my favourite home of all time. It was log on the inside too, but when I went back to visit years later, I saw they had drywalled it. Dunno why .....

    Not just another pretty face. I have been enjoying many videos that you have produced starting with your Route 66 series which I used for research for our trip. I like your voice and how you put together a video. Your 'Pops' is pretty cool too and reminds me of a couple people we know.

    Wow, I never expected my hometown to get such a great and informative video about it! You even mentioned some facts I didn’t know even after living here for almost 19 years now. I’m so happy that I get to live in this beautiful town. I even have a great connection with Carcross. As my dad’s partner is the principal of the small school in Carcross, I got a job working at the summer camp there.

    You were right across the street from the White Pass and Yukon Route railroad station and didn't stop in. I lived there 75 to 77 and would have been interested to see what it looks like now. But thanks for the tour.

    I really want to check this out one day. The Yukon, Kluane National Park, and Dawson City are bucket list for me. Really want to drive the Alaska Highway one day. Thank you so much for this video. Will have to check out some of the places you visited in Whitehorse!

Your father-son adventures are wonderful to watch because you know how to have fun together, your enthusiasm is infectious, and your interests differ but blend well. And your terrific content is beautifully produced every time! (Yes, Pops, you're definitely more than a pretty face! Great line, btw.😉)

    I am Canadian and although I've been to Alberta on numerous occasions, I have never gone to the far north-west to see the Yukon. Any friends I have who have gone to the Yukon raved about it, so maybe one day. For now, I'll just enjoy your adventures with Pops, on the road again.

    I’m about to take my 1st ever trip to Charleston SC and was so hoping you and pops would have some points of interest and places to eat there. Maybe you’ll make that trip one day. I do enjoy your informative videos

    • @JimJoeKnoxTenn
      @JimJoeKnoxTenn Год назад +1

      Charleston is one of those places that demand return visits to take full advantage of all it has to offer -- historic sites, home tours (spring for sure), plantations and Civil War, museums, time on or overlooking the water -- and especially restaurants; it's very much a foodie town. Enjoy!

  • @brittanyg4084
    @brittanyg4084 2 месяца назад +1

    You missed out on saying how downtown Whitehorse is insanely dangerous at night. Drug addiction and substance abuse is a lot more common than you might think.
    Alpine bakery recently closed down because of the violence and general crime. Locals refuse to go there.

    Interesting fact. Whereas the millennium trail goes beyond “downtown” It stops far short of “ beyond town”
    City of Whitehorse in its wisdom…. Or could it be greed……established extremely extensive city boundaries. Carcross Cutoff Rd… Takhini River bridge Mayo Rd…. Echo Rd Alaska Hwy…Grey mountain ridge….( I’ve never been to the other edge)
