Port Alsworth is a village I knew very little about. When the opportunity came to visit it, I quickly signed up.
Little did I know what an incredible adventure lay before us. I've been to many Alaska villages, yet Port Alsworth is a very unique one founded by the Alsworth family back in the 40's. It is situated in the heart of the Lake Clark National Park with countless Rivers, lakes and mountains stretching to the horizon in all directions.
It is a bucket-list destination for the avid outdoorsman and those looking to experience Alaska in the most authentic form it has to offer. Fishing, Bear viewing, boating, kayaking, hiking, it has it all.
Always be ready when Alaska throws it's power at you!

All those pioneers that trecked across Alaska looking for fortunes, making the great state, learning her rules. The making of a state. The airmen who were the firsts, taking the challenge, forging the way. A noble venture.
Well said, a noble venture indeed.
Thanks for letting me see the beautiful country you guys went through. It makes a person want to be there

Omg that place looks beautiful amazing. Sorry to ask this question, did anyone go in the summer time to look for vlad? Because since there's no snow in the summer it could be a little easier to look with cadaver dog's. My friends and I we're asking that question and I said I didn't know. Can you please tell us if they did? Thank you God bless you all 🙏 ❤
LOVE it..another awesome adventure
Fantastic...great job and thank you so much for taking us along with you simply amazing

Diane Lively Thank you for this good comment!
Great video. Thanks for taking us along.
Cowboy Geologist thank you!
Lived in Alaska for 37 years. So beautiful for 3-5 months a year. Just didn't want to deal with the winters anymore. Now I'm loving winter in Arizona..
John Ganshow Yes, Alaska is not a best place to spend there winter period!
Such amazing beauty all around you. ✈ ✌
Been there and did that area.. Alaska is Breathtaking and if my body could take the Winters I would be there... Its also Buku Expensive to live... As you showed with how everything gets shipped in... Thanks for the flashback...
Viewing Prophet Thank you for watching!
Beautiful video and can't wait for episode 2! I have a friend who judges when winter is coming by the fireweed flowers. I believe it's when the last flowers on the stalk are gone the first snow won't be far behind or something like that.
Leesa When the Fireweed blossoms bloom at the top of the stalk, it’s ~6 weeks to the first snow.
Leesa interesting 😃 Never heard about this before!
Such beautiful country. What a life! Thanks for sharing! #CraveLife
So cool to see that plane and hear the story. I drive by that thing all the time at Wasilla airport.
When I was there, I decided to go out mountain biking on a single track trail. I got lucky and will never do it again. I saw all kinds of wild life except for bear. I was out for about two hours in the wild which is nuts. I'm lucky I wasn't killed by a grizzly.
Nice wing dip on the way out
Thanks to Mark for the great airshow on the way out 💪
Couple of tips crossing streams;
1. know that stream crossing is one of the most dangerous activities in the back country (if not the most dangerous).
2. try to cross where the stream is widest
3. unbuckle your pack so you can shed it in an emergency (like tumbling down a glacier fed stream)
4. consider carrying a strong pole so you can probe, lean on, and maybe have multiple partners hold on to.
I fell in a glacial stream with a heavy pack on- my son was able to run down below me and grab me as I went by. Lost my rifle and was just shedding my pack. Turned out O.K. but did not have a pole for balance/support. Next time!
Outstanding views and scenery!! Love what I see of Alaska and the snow!!! The last of our unexplored wilderness areas. Enjoyed the video so much. Amazing how much has been settled in such out of way places. So is the water in creeks pure enough to drink?? Heard the bugs r horrible during the warmer seasons too. Any recommendations on groups that give tours of your area in Alaska?? Would love to plan an excursion there and so unfamiliar with the possibilities. Love your videos from here in the mountains of Tennessee. In my opinion a firearm a must just in case.
Nice job! What a fun adventure we had!!
already been)
This reminds me of a couple Bigfoot videos I watched!
In what way, you ask????
No fkn BIGFOOT!!!!
THATS HOW!
Awesome, really enjoyed it.
Thanks a lot! I really tried to do my best for this video!
Been there done that. Someone who has never walked the tundra and through the alders and black flies has no idea how hard your trek across country here in Alaska really is. And those rocks are bone breaking if you make one misstep. And the glacier water is ice cold! I feel your pain already man. Can't believe the one guy wearing shorts, bet his legs are already tore up. Bet he never does that again! Hey from Eagle River neighbor!
Wow! Really exciting that there are people on my channel who understand me so well!
Wow your videos are really well put together. Can't believe you don't have more subs. Here's a gratuitous comment to help the algorithm. It's like Flying Doodles, but you take more than 10 steps away from the aircraft.
The hand holding the plane was a cute touch. I'm sure it will confuse many people.
Thank you a lot! I spent so much time to make this hand with a plane look good! I really appreciate it!
Are you crazy bears are unstoppable and terrifying xx
Jemma Farrar 😂😂😂I absolutely agree
Hi there..i came across your video
About your shopping and dropping food off from your air plane for your missing friend. Hope your friend is found.dnt know how long this video is.im watching another video.thanks for the Beautiful video.Im scared of heights.
I have a DC 4 propeller in my front yard as yard art. I guess it's for sale at the right price but don't really know what it's worth.
Calgon, take me away!!
Hello..from Az
Carls Lee Hello!
Gorgeous but I could just NOT handle the bugs!
U don't have to out run the bear ,u just have to outrun the other person
I was just wondering if you have ever had anything sketchy happen when out hiking, anything you couldn't explain? BTW Good idea to take a good firearm with you out there! 👹🤔
Lyle Graff No, nothing unexplained
Your friend is missing and you are going hiking?. Wow
I got right behind a 4 engine fuel plane on my Rokon & he punched it almost blew me into the ocean . this was Kotzbue AK.
Philip Freeman wow😲 Be careful!
Hiking with a gun. I have heard Northern Ontario is like that take a gun for your own safety from the wildlife.
Thank you for your advice. I would never do this before, but now it seems to be really useful! Will definitely think about it ☺️
Oh great. Someone put a spider in their video and now I need a new monitor. lol.
😂
Hahahah, I’m sorry🤷🏻♂️
Are you carrying krocks,?
So, did you ever find your friend?
That's what I want to know. I haven't seen anymore information or videos about that.
?
Did you ever locate the missing guy from the cabin?
I was wondering that very same thing while I was watching this
I don't believe he was ever found.
No, unfortunately.
Thats what i asked as well..! I guess there moving on with there lives..That guy must be dead some where in the bush, many wolves got him, since bears should be sleeping. Maybe he wants people to think he's dead and started a new life somewhere...who knows..?
so what happen with looking for your friend that went missing..? you gave up looking for him...?
K.J. M. It’s been a 12 months since my friend is missed, and we still do not know where he is
@@CraveLife Thats a real drag, sorry to hear, being a retired east coast comm. fisherman, i know how it feels to lose friends. I've lost several in past years, somewhere out in the vast Atlantic ocean. May they all rest in peace....
@@CraveLife I know ,how long can you keep looking..? Like someone here mentioned, your buddy is lucky to have a friend like you, who tried so hard to find him...
K.J. M. My condolences😣
@@CraveLife Thanks....
"bugs" = GIANT MOSQUITOES ATTACKING !! : (
see you drinking water without filter? it is safe to do so ?
Yes
I can't understand why you hike in shorts to allow bites from critters, You must love swellings !
Including the scratches from brush !
It was really hot
You NEED a FIREARM !!!
