That's good to include information about when the footage was shot, exactly for those reasons that people want to get ideas about current conditions. One time I asked Kraig Adams about it and he just snapped back like "dude, it says right there when I posted it". Maybe he didn't realize people can post videos from years ago if they with to. Oh well...
Very difficult and challenging trail this time. But what an awesome views, what a cozy place the Mint Hut and what insane the lakes up there. Color of the water is completely gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your video adventures. They are totally amazing. I love them. A Big Thank you!!
I'm so sorry about the wasp stings! Thank you for everything you went through to make another amazing video. (Also Katherine you were amazingly stoic for having just got 3 wasp stings. I could not have done that!)
As a teenager that lives in Alaska this video really helps people grasp the level of beauty that Alaska offers, hatchers pass is one of the best places to go. I highly recommend you go glacier hiking as well that is an amazing experience.
Thanks for letting us watch your adventures! Enjoying all the sights! We even have a drinking game for your videos. We take a drink every time you all say insane, pillowy, gooey, and some of your other catchphrases. Safe travels. Cheers!
Wow, what an adventure! And the video quality and resolution are incredible! So gorgeous and breathtaking!! ❤ oh, no, the wasps!! Hope you feel better soon!!
@@AdventuresofAplusK omg, we were talking about the allergic reaction when we saw that!! That would have been so scary out there in the wild! It looked like there wasn’t anyone else nearby!! Glad all was ok, although I’m sure it was painful! Three stings, yikes!
Hey guys, thanks for doing such a great job in documenting everything. Since we were up there about a month ago, our next trip will include the hiking spots you've explored. Please be safe and have as much fun as it looks in the videos.
Absolutely beautiful! Brought tears to my eyes seeing such beauty. Thank you so much for your dedication to the channel. The videos just keep getting better.
Thanks for taking us to places most of us will never get to go. This was an intense one for sure, looked like many obstacles to overcome, but you made it! Bravo!
I think this might be my favorite video of yours I've watched, not just because it's Alaska, or has amazing views of the mountains and lake, the mud falls, the epic tent spot, the wasp stings (sorry about that!) - but everything was so well edited and shot, and the sound design was perfect. Be well you two
Ha, I've been down in the lower 48 trucking this summer. Born and raised in AK. Wanted to see some country down here. That last comment about the rest of the U.S.. Nothing! Nothing compares to the epic grandeur that is Alaska! Another awesome video 😎
Wow! You guys are becoming quite the cinematographers! That tent setup was The Bomb! What great weather you are enjoying while in AK. You have to try Backpacker's Pantry Crème Brûlée! It's a trip; delicious and even has a crunchy sugary top crust - no torch needed. I also love their Pad Thai with Chicken. Freeze dried backpacking meals have come a long way from the 80's. You do an amazing job. 🥰🤩
Ooooh ya we'll have to try the creme brulee! The Pad Thai with chicken is our #1 favorite! They didn't have any everywhere we looked in Anchorage which is why we had to try some new ones Thank you and thanks for watching!
What a great rendition and great memory of a place at which some of us spent so much time. The hut still looks the same. What so many people often refer to as 'back in the day', some of us MCA members would spend Thanksgiving up there by skiing in and hauling small sleds, loaded with food including a turkey. As you may know, the 'Bomber Glacier' got its name because some military aircraft crashed on that glacier and is still there. One one occasion I pulled one of the light bulbs, took it home and hooked it to a battery. It still worked, which is amazing after a 'landing' like that. Keep up the joyful reports : - )
No words, just miles of smiles ! Yes, adventures have their memorable moments and you encountered many on this one. Many more to come ! Positive journey prayers from your Oregon Buddy !
I LOVE watching your Alaska adventure video's! We'll be going up there next July! It's my hope and dream to move up there we re within the next few year's! Keep up the GREAT work! Much respect and support from Yuma, AZ. You have a new subscriber👍👍
I thought you guys were in Ireland 🇮🇪 it was so green traveling to the trailhead. The mint hut 🛖 was so cool. Kona was so wiped out by bedtime. Sorry 😞 bout stings I'm sure the cool water helped. ❤️ the we done strut when you got back to van.
Loved this portion of the trip, I'm a few videos behind. Spending my Sunday catching up! Adam getting in a fight with a tree was the best part, LOL. The wasps sounded not very fun, glad all was well!
You guys are such an inspiration...you two remind me of Kara & Nate...I also follow super-cute couples Samuel & Audrey, Eileen Aldis (travels with her beau, Marc) who also have an enthusiasm for travel...as always, thanks for taking us along your adventures...love from Texas. 💞🚐⛽
Filming while going through the wasp sting situation brought great depth to the video- knowing that things don't always go as planned and seeing you get through it I think helps others get through them as well. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication!
Thanks for sharing this well done video. I live here, but am only able to hike 3-4 miles anymore at my age. I've never seen the end of the trail. So, I much appreciate your sweeping visuals. I might add that Hatcher Pass is an extraordinary area. The hillside meadows are strewn with many kinds of wildflowers end of June/mid July is peak bloom time.
We’re glad that you didn’t have an adverse reaction to the wasp stings. Apply ice, take ibuprofen, & apply an antihistamine ointment (Calamine, Benadryl, etc) to the sting site.
Stunning! The view of the grey mountains and the green valley with the river is incredible. The mountains with that beautiful blue of Moonlake is gorgeous. Getting stung on the trail is one of my fears too. I'm glad Kona didn't get stung.
We were in love with that scenery too! Yes we're glad she didn't get stung either. We know for a fact she would have a reaction. She got stung by a bee in Seattle one time and her face really swelled up!
good show , well photographed , glad you enjoyed the hike , a little farther up the hacher pass road is "Arch angle trail" check it out , if you continue up the road to summit lake and decent down towards the Willow side of the pass you would enjoy that as well .
Thank you for sharing your latest adventure. I am so sorry you got stung. It sure was so beautiful. You are seeing Alaska the right way. If you want to see the true beauty, you have to hike to see and enjoy it. I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you for sharing and be safe.
Todays video was another stunning feature. Alaska is so beautiful. Was worried about bears, not ever thinking about bees and wasps.!! Always giving us desert at the end. An adventurer series on television should be in your future. Kona really looked tired. I bet you all slept good that night. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋♂️
So sorry about the mud slips and wasps! We’re glad you are both ok! We hiked/scrambled five miles today and only had energy left to get a bite to eat and to enjoy your video. Your energy is admirable!
What an adventure to say the least! Wow! Ouch Kat, between the wasps & falling in the mud! Incredible drones shots especially over Moon lake! Great video guys!!! ~Cara 💖
thank you once again. such an epic trek. congrats you both did so well and kona as well. incredible phots shouts. enjoy your next adventue and rest. always enjoy your videos!!
As my wife and I sit in our rocking loungers, remembering 35, 40 years (eeks!) when we wouldn't think anything about backpacking days up a mountain..... Oh the views, the altitude sickness, the gentle warnings of the rangers and other experienced people.
What a great video! It was so nice to watch it with Mamo when I visited her today! She said, “there’s no other people around.” She seemed to really enjoy it! I’m glad my girl did okay with the wasp stings and with that fast moving water! Don’t do that again! 😳 loved all the drone shots and the far away shots of you two! What an epic hike, camping spot and hut! Safe travels!
@@AdventuresofAplusK I know she enjoys watching your videos like everyone else. When I moved from Florida to Alaska, I had to drive by myself but I shared my gps location the whole way with her, and several others. She and my aunt had the best time every single day just 'watching' me travel on the map and they didn't even have a video to watch. 😄
Hello Adventurers 😊😊😊, The 1st thing was like WOW!! You guys are AMAZING...hiking that alpine terrain was AWESOME and finding that hut and where it was...MAN...JUST AWESOME😊😊😊! And y'all slept in a tent up there...WOW!! Kathryn, I feel so terrible that your getting stung by wasps, I know that wasn't good but you found away to get out of there. OUTSTANDING VIDEO👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!
So sorry that you got stung by wasps! Thank you for sharing your adventure in Hachers Pass!! Just gorgeous video!! I was in the area many years ago on the road over the pass in the fog!! That was an adventure to never forget too!! ❤️ your videos!! Be safe!!
Love the shot of Kona sleeping in the tent. So sorry about the wasps-must have been very scary. And thanks for highlighting this hike. I have been to Alaska a couple of times but never heard of it so you must be digging deep. Great find.
Wow, that was quite an adventure. Awesome scenery. Sorry about the wasps but it goes to show that you're out in the wild. Can't wait until the next video. Thanks for sharing.
That is beautiful scenery guys! I thought at first it was Colorado until I seen the title. Now I gotta look it up on a map.. keep it up! Safe travel's..
Baking soda and water ,make a paste and apply to drawl the stinger out. Just got stung the other day and it sucks. Something to think about in the future when crossing or entering Swift moving water Remove your backpack or at least be able to get out of it quickly. If you fall your backpack will weigh you down.Always best carry. Be safe and be well
Looking back I realized I should've definitely loosened the backpack a bit in case I fell in the water! Thankfully it worked out and I learned for the future!
That will probably be one of the hiking trips that you remember and talk about the most out of all the others. 😄 It definitely looked like an adventure.
That slog of a hike, makes me think of Gates of the Arctic National Park and what I have heard about how it is backpacking through there. You guys did a great job getting through the hike and showing us the beauty of the place. I hope those stings didn't stick around too long!
Love your videos Adam and Katherine! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. My cousin and I have planned a trip to Washington next year and we have used some many of your videos to help us!! Thank you!!
That's awesome! We hope you have a great trip! Be sure to check out our website as well. We have guides and itineraries for many of the places we have visited! Thanks and thanks for watching!
lol omg katherine went back for that tripod!! I was wondering how you took that shot. I was like "maybe the drone?" haha so sorry Katherine got stung- the worst! But wowee, what an amazing campsite!!
Thanks for the great video! Sorry about the wasps, they are so painful! I was impressed that you walked through the water while holding the camera at arms length. I probably would have fallen in the water and taken the camera with me! Take care on your up coming adventures!
Thanks for the adventure. What an interesting cabin. Sorry about the wasps and mud and having to bushwack, but that is a lot better than bears or moose. Ya'll did great. Until next time... Travel safe.
16 to 18 miles? You guys are such troopers! What a beautiful hike. Sorry about the wasps. I’m betting the skies are so full of stars up there! Great video! 👍
Wow on the bike and the outhouse. You guys are so brave camping out there. I love all the spots of glacier lake water. It cracks me up when you eat cause your is always crunchy lol. How old is your doggy? So adorable. I'm so sorry about wasp. I hope you are ok. Girl you are so brave and strong. Beautiful footage. Be safe.
Another incredible video! Bummer about the wasp stings! I got my first sting (on my neck!) a couple months ago just sitting at Rodeo Beach after a hike in the Marin Headlands and it HURTS! I was a big baby about it, so you're a dang trooper being as cool and calm as you were after 3 or 4 stings! Can't wait to see where your next adventure takes you!
You know how much I love your backpacking videos ❤ We've just got back from another week in the Lake District and we did a hike that began at a National Trust car park, and hiking through National Trust land - and there was a blackboard in the car park saying wild campers were welcome, and could they just leave a note on their dash saying when they expect to be back, and donations are welcome. I had no idea until I was there, so no tent or anything, but I think it's a bit of a game changer. May need to begin watching these backpacking trips of yours much more closely for tips! Loved your editing of the clips of you 'putting the tent up' 🤣 Can not believe you found Adam's sunglasses, that was amazing. Sorry to hear about the wasps for you Kathryn, like you, I've not yet been stung by a wasp or bee, and like you, I've become very fearful for what it must truly feel like! Still not sure what to think of the amount of mud and water on this trail though you guys are so ace with it!
Oh the Lake District looks so dreamy! We hope you can get back there and do a trip! If you need any recommendations ask away! We'll help anyway we can The wasps weren't fun, but she powered through! The mud sure added a special element to the trip! 😂

You guys went a month after my friends and I did. Did you get to see fog in the morning when you wake up? It was BEAUTIFUL!!!
Hey 🎉 dollar tree mix salt pepper other spices in small in one of the small containers and take for cooking😊 also hidden valley ranch dry mix😮
Great adventure to Hatcher Pass...With all that beauty and solitude. Thank you for taking this old 78 yr old granny with you!
We're glad we can share for others to enjoy! Thank you!
The most humble guys ever! I love you guys and love all of your adventures! Keep rocking!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Very difficult and challenging trail this time. But what an awesome views, what a cozy place the Mint Hut and what insane the lakes up there. Color of the water is completely gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your video adventures.
They are totally amazing. I love them.
A Big Thank you!!
The hut, lakes, and mountains were such a treat! Thank you and thanks for watching!
So amazing! You totally rocked the photography and narration. So much energy!
Thanks, Mindi!
I'm so sorry about the wasp stings! Thank you for everything you went through to make another amazing video. (Also Katherine you were amazingly stoic for having just got 3 wasp stings. I could not have done that!)
I think the concern of trying to figure out how to get around them helped me stay a bit calmer! Although internally I was very panicked lol!
She was amazingly stoic. I would have probably been screaming and cursing.
As a teenager that lives in Alaska this video really helps people grasp the level of beauty that Alaska offers, hatchers pass is one of the best places to go. I highly recommend you go glacier hiking as well that is an amazing experience.

So glad you enjoyed the views! Thankfully no allergic reaction and the pain went away by that evening!

What an awesome trail! Kona rocked it like a champ. The drone footage is spectacular.
She crushed it as always!
What a epic hike minus the wasps and mud. I love the lakes.The hut was neat too.
The wasps were no fun, but the rest was a blast!
"It's not an adventure if you're comfortable, right?" Quotable Adam!
Put that on a coffee mug!
Ha, I've been down in the lower 48 trucking this summer. Born and raised in AK. Wanted to see some country down here. That last comment about the rest of the U.S.. Nothing! Nothing compares to the epic grandeur that is Alaska! Another awesome video 😎

Thank you and thanks for watching!
Great video! Always enjoyed to watch. Thank you!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing these heartwarming adventures. I am from India and have watched nearly all your vlogs. 🌸
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching!
great, EPIC trail... I want to be there... thanks for sharing..
Thanks for watching!
I thought you guys were in Ireland 🇮🇪 it was so green traveling to the trailhead. The mint hut 🛖 was so cool. Kona was so wiped out by bedtime. Sorry 😞 bout stings I'm sure the cool water helped. ❤️ the we done strut when you got back to van.
It was such an amazing scene out there!
Thanks for taking us along. I got to see a little hut without breaking a sweat and from the comfort of my couch.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another great episode. Thanks.
Loved this portion of the trip, I'm a few videos behind. Spending my Sunday catching up! Adam getting in a fight with a tree was the best part, LOL. The wasps sounded not very fun, glad all was well!
haha that bush was really looking for a fight! All good now and it is a funny memory to look back on!

Thanks for sharing this well done video. I live here, but am only able to hike 3-4 miles anymore at my age. I've never seen the end of the trail. So, I much appreciate your sweeping visuals. I might add that Hatcher Pass is an extraordinary area. The hillside meadows are strewn with many kinds of wildflowers end of June/mid July is peak bloom time.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you and thanks for watching!
Great vlog guys! Amazing scenery, great drone shots and you guys are finny. Makes me want to escape to the Rockies and Alaska!
Thank you! Those are some of our favorite places!
Yikes, 3 wasp stings! Ouch 😣 every. Single. Alaska. Video. Is. STUNNING! You guys did such a great job to capture these views and experiences.
We’re glad that you didn’t have an adverse reaction to the wasp stings. Apply ice, take ibuprofen, & apply an antihistamine ointment (Calamine, Benadryl, etc) to the sting site.
Thankfully I was all good by the evening!
Great video; I am working on my summer backpacking list and this one is high on the list! Thanks for sharing!
This one was tough, but an absolute must do!
Stunning! The view of the grey mountains and the green valley with the river is incredible. The mountains with that beautiful blue of Moonlake is gorgeous. Getting stung on the trail is one of my fears too. I'm glad Kona didn't get stung.

Absolutely! We have seen a lot of beauty from the road, but the harder hikes have taken us to some amazing scenery (and less people too)!
Another awesome adventure. Great drone shots. Sorry about the mud and the wasps, but the scenery! WOW!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
Wow!!! Some absolutely gorgeous mountains and lakes. What a great hike that must have been for the three of you, minus the wasps. Stay safe up there.
It was fantastic! One of our top hikes!
What incredible views, you guys are awesome and real troopers for taking that hike. Beautiful scenery. Thx for sharing

I am so glad mamo enjoyed it! I will have to show her another one when I go see her next week! 💗 I shall try to avoid wasps and water in the future!
Yes, this is my mom/#1 fan!

absolutely gorgeous you 2!!! That is all...great film work and editing here. I'm loving the Alaskan vids so much. And hi Kona!
Thanks, Nate!
Love the shot of Kona sleeping in the tent. So sorry about the wasps-must have been very scary. And thanks for highlighting this hike. I have been to Alaska a couple of times but never heard of it so you must be digging deep. Great find.
Kona is so sweet in the tent. The wasps weren't fun! This hike was tough, but definitely worth it!
Wow, that was quite an adventure. Awesome scenery. Sorry about the wasps but it goes to show that you're out in the wild. Can't wait until the next video. Thanks for sharing.
Quite the adventure is right! Thanks!
What an amazing trip to Alaska.
That was absolutely s̶t̶i̶n̶g̶i̶n̶g̶ stunning. AWESOME video, as always!
You got that right! Thanks and thanks for watching!
Awesome video and scenery !! Thanks you guys!

Wow was such a beautiful day! So fun seeing you in my backyard!
It was an excellent day!
Great info! We are doing Bomber Traverse with our scout troop this upcoming summer. This gives us a great idea of what Day 1 will be like !!

Baking soda and water ,make a paste and apply to drawl the stinger out. Just got stung the other day and it sucks. Something to think about in the future when crossing or entering Swift moving water Remove your backpack or at least be able to get out of it quickly. If you fall your backpack will weigh you down.Always best carry. Be safe and be well
Looking back I realized I should've definitely loosened the backpack a bit in case I fell in the water! Thankfully it worked out and I learned for the future!
That will probably be one of the hiking trips that you remember and talk about the most out of all the others. 😄 It definitely looked like an adventure.
You got that right!
That slog of a hike, makes me think of Gates of the Arctic National Park and what I have heard about how it is backpacking through there. You guys did a great job getting through the hike and showing us the beauty of the place. I hope those stings didn't stick around too long!
We cannot wait to go to that park someday! We hear it's definitely a bit rugged out there!
I love your videos! So stunning. Nicely edited!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Hatcher pass is one of my favorite places to fly the drone. You got a lot of awesome shots 👏
We LOVED droning there! So happy that many places are legal to fly in Alaska (and less people around since we don't want to annoy anyone)!
Great video! Thank you for sharing the adventure! (from NE Indiana)
Thank you, Edward!
Love your videos Adam and Katherine! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. My cousin and I have planned a trip to Washington next year and we have used some many of your videos to help us!! Thank you!!
That's awesome! We hope you have a great trip!
Be sure to check out our website as well. We have guides and itineraries for many of the places we have visited!
Thanks and thanks for watching!
Awesome content. thank you for sharing. have a nice day!❤👍
Thank you! You too!
You guys' videos never disappoint! Awesome as usual!
Thanks, Kevin!
Total awesomeness
lol omg katherine went back for that tripod!! I was wondering how you took that shot. I was like "maybe the drone?" haha so sorry Katherine got stung- the worst! But wowee, what an amazing campsite!!
Thank you! ❤️ we put in some extra work 😂. It was an incredible scene up there!
Beautiful scenery and a far from ordinary hike. Sorry you encountered some wasps. I hope it didn't bother for too long. Thanks for the epic views.
Thankfully they weren't too bothersome! Thanks, Steve! It was quite the adventure
That trail was wicked! Kudos to you guys for toughing it out! Sorry bout the bee stings, hope you’re doing ok.
All good now! Thank you and thanks for watching!
You two are the bees’ knees! 💪🐝
💙
Awesome place, Kudos for trekking through all that mud on the way up. Hope you knee was alright.
This trail had its highs and lows! But amazing all the way!
Thanks for the great video! Sorry about the wasps, they are so painful! I was impressed that you walked through the water while holding the camera at arms length. I probably would have fallen in the water and taken the camera with me! Take care on your up coming adventures!
Luckily it was a more calm section! Thank you!
Thanks for the adventure. What an interesting cabin. Sorry about the wasps and mud and having to bushwack, but that is a lot better than bears or moose. Ya'll did great. Until next time... Travel safe.
Yes I think we'd take the bushwacking and mud over bears any day! Thanks!
16 to 18 miles? You guys are such troopers! What a beautiful hike. Sorry about the wasps. I’m betting the skies are so full of stars up there! Great video! 👍
To be honest we didn't stay up late enough to see them! 😂 But I bet they were nice! It was a fun adventure!
Thank you for your dedication- walking up the rocks and then having to go back for the camera. I would have been as scared as you after the wasps ugh!
Gotta get the shot 😂 Thank you!
WOW; just keeps getting better; forget the mud and the wasps; hey , where the ice cream 😎😎😎😎😎👌👌👍👍
We had a nice ice cream reward a few days later!
@@AdventuresofAplusK You guys certainly deserved it after that mess.
Awesome video, I love Hatcher Pass. hey Adam, the 80's called ... they want their watch back. lol
I love my Casio! haha timeless 😂
thanks for watching!
Wow on the bike and the outhouse. You guys are so brave camping out there. I love all the spots of glacier lake water. It cracks me up when you eat cause your is always crunchy lol. How old is your doggy? So adorable. I'm so sorry about wasp. I hope you are ok. Girl you are so brave and strong. Beautiful footage. Be safe.
It was quite an adventure! We had a very peaceful night sleeping out there! Kona will be 9 in November. We're all good now thanks!
good thing you didn't find out u were allergic! I got stung for the first time a couple months ago and it was rough!!
Yes it could have been much worse!
Another incredible video! Bummer about the wasp stings! I got my first sting (on my neck!) a couple months ago just sitting at Rodeo Beach after a hike in the Marin Headlands and it HURTS! I was a big baby about it, so you're a dang trooper being as cool and calm as you were after 3 or 4 stings! Can't wait to see where your next adventure takes you!
On the neck...ouch! Kathryn walked through that cold water shortly after so she thinks that helped a bit. Thanks, Chrisy!
You know how much I love your backpacking videos ❤ We've just got back from another week in the Lake District and we did a hike that began at a National Trust car park, and hiking through National Trust land - and there was a blackboard in the car park saying wild campers were welcome, and could they just leave a note on their dash saying when they expect to be back, and donations are welcome. I had no idea until I was there, so no tent or anything, but I think it's a bit of a game changer. May need to begin watching these backpacking trips of yours much more closely for tips! Loved your editing of the clips of you 'putting the tent up' 🤣 Can not believe you found Adam's sunglasses, that was amazing. Sorry to hear about the wasps for you Kathryn, like you, I've not yet been stung by a wasp or bee, and like you, I've become very fearful for what it must truly feel like! Still not sure what to think of the amount of mud and water on this trail though you guys are so ace with it!
Oh the Lake District looks so dreamy! We hope you can get back there and do a trip! If you need any recommendations ask away! We'll help anyway we can
The wasps weren't fun, but she powered through! The mud sure added a special element to the trip! 😂
