Thanks for these videos; very nice job! What I haven’t caught was the date range for this trip, such as the date you departed on your adventure. I’m wondering what time of year you encountered this weather. Thx again.
how cold were you on this leg? 12:20 I like that you post your experience and your second-guess on it. 15:40 cool relay. 48:30 night landings always look like a video game. fantastic adventure. thanks for posting it.
I was pretty cold. The heater didn’t keep up too well with the temps as low as they were. Thanks for the comment! One more leg coming soon. Hopefully I can edit it in the next few weeks!
@@AdventureMen yeah my heater seems to be a suggestion of heat. been wearing electric mittens lately, heh. mostly wanted to let you know your stuff is appreciated, I'm glad you've brought us along with you.
I assume, at some point, you remembered that the ceiling reported ( in this case from METAR) was 5500’ or at one point you said 6,000’…AND that altitude must be added to the the airport elevation (2255’ above MSL) to give the base of the clouds 7,755 to 8,255’. So your plan to “ climb up to 8,500” had little or no chance of working and putting you guys above the cloud layer. Your comment that “ these ceilings are significantly higher than what they were calling… there definitely over 6”, Is telling.
The cloud bases were 8,255! ( at Watson Creek) Remember METAR numbers are AGL. You have to add 6,000’ to 2,255 (airport elevation. My wife said my previous comment was to wordy
Yeah, I realized that shortly after the flight. The funny thing is that I knew that, but I’m so used to low elevation airports, that I completely spaced
Thanks for the transparency! I learn by these videos!
Sorry Canada doesn’t have better hospitality for you guys traveling through…
It’s embarrassing to show my mistakes but it just makes the video that much more interesting
Really enjoyed this video.
Thanks! Does it make you want to try it?
@@AdventureMen Well it confirms my desire to want to fly down to the lower 48.
Good call on that Watson Lake RON!
I’m glad we did! It wasn’t the most comfortable sleep, but we’re alive! 😆

Juneau is my home town and I'm sure you had an enjoyable stop there.
