Thanks for bringing back some fond memories of my greatest road trip ever. i drove from Chicago to Fairbanks in 1993, leaving late in the season on Aug. 6th. I headed up through Minneapolis, North Dakota, Glacier/Waterton NP, Banff, Jasper, and Hinton. (The Columbia Icefields Parkway between Jasper and Banff has some of the most stunning mountain scenery in all of North America-it's a "must see!") It was good to see Muncho Lake and Liard Hot Springs again. I detoured into Skagway to ride the White Pass & Yukon Railroad and then headed to Fairbanks. I spent about 5 days in and around Denali National Park and then down to Anchorage to stay with friends. I made it to Homer and Wrangell-St. Elias NP. My friends won the lottery to drive your personal vehicle all the way to Wonder Lake in Denali NP on the last day the park was open: Sept. 13th and they gave the ticket to me to use because they couldn't. Amazing. It was late in the season, and I knew I had to book it south quickly to avoid snow. Between Hinton and Jasper, it snowed quite a bit but melted the next day. I returned to Chicago by way of Vancouver, BC; San Diego, CA; New Orleans, LA; Mobile, AL; and Memphis, TN. Al totaled, I was gone 70 days and drove 18,168 miles. I'd do it again tomorrow (except, perhaps, the camping in a tent every night part. 😂) The only issue I had with my vehicle on the Alaska Highway was a burned out headlight from the requirement to have you lights on at all times. Safe travels.

Beautiful scenery; the mountains; lakes, waterfalls, and the cinnamon roll, or loaf. Just fantastic. Glad you miss the problems on the highway 😎😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌

Absolutely gorgeous nature and wildlife!! So interesting to see literally the road less traveled!! Thank you for showing us!!

CAN’T STOP SMILING!!!! These vlogs keep getting better and better as you get closer and closer! I’m at a loss for words…freaking awesome vlog! This has got to be one the absolutely most amazing road trips anywhere on earth! WOW!!! I’m still drooling over the cinnamon buns. The word “pillowy” was used…hot springs, all sorts of wildlife and crazy Mountain View’s…I mean c’mon! This brought me so much happiness! You’re THE best!!!!

Great video. You do a great job highlighting your adventures and the beauty of BC. I taught school at Toad River (Mile 422) for a year and 2 more years in Ft. Nelson in the early-mid-90s. Travelling back and forth to FN, my teaching partner and I would often be stopped and blocked on the highway by a herd of hundreds of caribou. (Literally, like the scene from Polar Express!) No shortage of wildlife and northern lights. I'm surprised you didn't see any moose, deer, wolves, elk, etc. It's hard to believe but Stone Mountain is even more amazing on a bright and sunny day and video just isn't able to capture the breath-taking blue of Muncho Lake. The locals and truckers on the highway are some of the best people you'll meet.

Thank you for stopping to show us the nature along the way. I’ve never seen caribou before! The hot springs scene was like the story of Goldilocks and the three bears. 😂

Dawson creek fella here. Friends with the owner of beans and barley and even worked there a little once. Great place and I'm glad you enjoyed our small city 😀

Can you make these videos an hour long? I'm enjoying living vicariously through your adventures and 33 minutes is not long enough! I'll take all the B roll as filler. Also, how have you guys not made any kind of reference to Dawson's Creek the TV show?

Absolutely Beautiful loved the scenery and bears.I thought it was cool they had a hot springs.The food looked delicious.

As a couple from Alabama. We do not care what you are wearing. Just a word of encouragement to the both of you. This is our favorite KZfaq channel. Please don't let stupid comments get you down. We love every minute of your videos. We do worry about your safety when we don't hear from yall. You both are awesome in our book. Keep up the good work

Good call on not getting too close to the water at Smith River Falls. That water was MOVING! Safe fun is good fun.

I was thinking of you guys the other day when I heard about the Alaska Highway collapse. You must have just missed that! I love seeing all the wildlife!

Every time a bug gets smashed on your wind shield just tell it: I bet you don't have the guts to do that again. Yee-Haa!! North to Alaska!

As someone who lives in Dawson Creek, this was so cool to watch. Can confirm, lots of bugs in the town. Windshields be looking like that commonly 😅

It's so amazing....the scenery is really very mesmerizing... Beautiful lake...the mountains are so enchanting... It's a very worthy place to visit...

10 years ago i did Anchorage to Fairbanks.......Alaskan Highways are truly Engineering Marvel.

Wow, gorgeous territory, raging rivers, hot springs, wild life, it's all there!!

Love the excitement you two have for all your adventures as well as the fun you create on your drives. So far there are bears, buffalo, caribou, bighorn sheep, and a porcupine. Thanks for sharing.

I love that you always seem to have the trails to yourselves - so peaceful and beautiful! Maybe I missed it but have you done a van life with a dog video? Day in the life of Kona 🙂

Glad to see your enjoying my home Province of B.C. You will love the Yukon!! Enjoy!! Yes make sure you come back the Stewart-Cassiar Highway

So fun to follow you on this adventure. Years ago had a plan to travel from Phoenix to Alaska. Maybe one day it'll happen for me. Meanwhile will enjoy everything that you are sharing. Safe travels! 🙏

Brings back memories of our trip in 2015. Drove our 24 ft motorhome from NC to Alaska for our retirement trip. It's a once in a lifetime adventure.

Amazing 👏 I love all the wildlife you got to see. You two are truly blessed and loved this part of your adventure. Such beautiful mountains and lakes, hot springs campgrounds wow. Take care!

Never thought I'd make it to the Alcan. Thanks for letting me tag a long. You two really put your heart and soul into making these videos. Make sure to take bear spray when hiking. Waiting for the next episode. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋‍♂️

The one and only word to describe how truly beautiful all this nature is: WOW

Wow... So Beautiful, all the amazing views you're seeing and beautiful animals... love it. Glad you guys are able to keep in touch with family. Safe travels blessings. 😊

You guys are so great at articulating and demonstrating your appreciation of all things amazing on the roads you are travelling. Of course your camera skills are to be envied as well. Thank you so much for sharing.

The big dig in Boston took 20+ year, basically just a tunnel. Those soldiers and civilians did a great job.

We live right around the corner from that sign. Just moved back to Dawson Creek May 25th after 10 years. Glad you mentioned the dates of this video. I was going to tell you about the road closure up ahead. Enjoy your adventures.

Just made it to northern Rocky Lodge Muncho Lake today. Celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary. We went here for our honeymoon. We stopped this morning at Tesla River Lodge. Yup best cinnamon bun ever. Thanks for the tip. (14 crows, a baby elk alone , and a male elk full rack) you got us beat on different animals lol

I’m going to Alaska in June, 2023 in a 15 rv guided caravan. I’m really enjoying your videos to make my plans. My tour will be 60 days meeting up in Dawson creek.

Amazing scenery photographed beautifully. Thank you for taking us along.

Made that journey in 1974 when the entire highway was dirt. I spent the summer in Soldatna and the Keni. Beautiful trip.

I admire your bravery, hiking in such a remote area, especially after seeing all of those bears! Everything looks so beautiful. My husband was stationed in Alaska in the Air Force, but I have never been. We are planning to drive there in the next few years🤞, so your videos are very helpful!

Hey guys, your taco 🌮 troll here! We left Tucson on May 1 and hit Dawson Creek today. Thank you for the inspiration! ALCAN starts tomorrow. I seem to recall it's gets harder to find good tacos until we get to Homer...you two are awesome..keep it up!

This was honestly so cool to see. I live In Dawson Creek and always see people taking photos at the Alaska highway sign. Nice to see it on KZfaq

Congrats. My bucket list dream one day. I did drive a portion of the Alaska Highway from/to Delta Junction in June 2017 and 19. I have driven and conquered both the Dalton and Dempster Hwys in June 2019. The wildest and most fun road adventures of my life.

Stunning scenery and wildlife. Incredible 😍😍

Thank you for this!! What perfect timing to start your Alaska Highway videos on Independence Day! Loved every second of this one. How cool to see a Caribou up close and personal while hiking. How many people can say they have experienced this?? Absolutely beautiful.

Wow, amazing. What beautiful scenery. I love seeing all the animals. An amazing adventure. Thank you for sharing.

We enjoyed your trip a lot. Well done. Our last big trip was 12 years ago from San Pedro CA to Homer and Farbanks. We will never forget it.

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL ADVENTURE. IT HAS BEEN A LIFE LONG DREAM OF MINE TO GO SPEND TIME IN ALASKA.. THIS SPRING IM BUYING 20 ACRES IN NORTH IDAHO, A 5TH WHEEL TO DRIVE UP THERE. I PLAN ON 3 MONTHS EVERY YR. TO TRAVEL THIS COUNTRY AND SEE ALL THE NATIONAL PARKS... CARRY ON ADVENTURING... I WILL ALSO SEE BANFF AND CANADA AND 3 MONTHS IN ALASKA

The scenery is spectacular! !! This is a fantastic trip for you both. Stay safe and continue to explore. 🥰🌻🐕🇺🇸

Nice trip. I live not far from the mile zero post. Been as far as Fort Nelson. Have a safe and enjoyable experience. 🇨🇦😊👍

thank you for sharing your epic adventure. beautiful scenery and wild life. enjoy Alaska

So good to see the highway adventures. My mom lived at Summit Lake as a kid. Drove that road so many times as a kid and adult. thanks for the memories!

It's cool to see this! I live in Dawson Creek and infact a block away from beans and barley haha. Drive by it everyday!

Just wanted to thank you guys for the referral to Somebody Feed Phil. We’re so enjoying it. Right after we watch Adventures of A&K

The mountains are amazing! 🌄

The hot springs were such a Goldilocks moment - glad you found the perfect temperature. Such a nice treat! Beautiful footage as always.

When I drove through on the Alcan hwy, I think I said "This is the most beautiful place" 100s of times!!! Loving your vlog!

Voted most wholesome van life content online.

You guys seem to outdo yourselves each time. Of course the wilderness landscapes here play a big role. Mungo Lake was breathtaking . Whirlpool canyon really unique. Caribou and bighorn sheep sightings a special treat.😀

What a beautiful adventure. I am so jealous. Someday I want to drive the Alaska Highway. I am so excited watching the adventure.

My wife said she bumped into you guys near the grain tower and complimented your rad van. Randomly got recommended your video. Small world.

Saw your IG story … delete those types of comments and move away from them. Your community - including me - are big fans of who you are. Absolutely wonderful people! I’m off to watch the video - the best way to spend a rainy Wisconsin afternoon, dreaming of Alaska!

My wife and I drove the alcan in November 1970 on our way to Fairbanks where I was stationed at Ft wainwright. We drove from Nebraska to Fairbanks in 4 and 1/2 days in a 1970 SS 396

Love love love your Alaska videos! I’ve been taking notes as I’m planning our Arctic Circle road trip next year! Going to drive the alaskan highway to get there so I’m saving every spot you guys stopped at along the route 😍 Thank you for all the amazing info you provide!

I love how much Kona loves snow and her cot is so cute!

Good timing, you got the last of "Break-up" with waterfalls and an changing rivers. How about all the sunlight? You really get to do more because of it. Really enjoy your videos. Thank you for the virtual high!

WOW! British Columbia is so amazingly beautiful! 😍 I hope to explore my own province in the future! I was in the Yukon last March, and would love to visit Alaska too. Thanks for this wonderful video. Very well done! 😃👍🏾

You guys keep getting these *epic* campsites. Ever since Vancouver Island. They are picture-perfect!

I did this trip in the ‘60s with my family. Back then it was a gravel road. Nice video!

No doubt that you two wake up most days & pinch yourselves that this is your life!🌻Always grateful for these vlogs that allow me to come along for the ride!❤️Can’t wait to see what’s around the bend! 🌈 Hugs to Kona.🥰

The way to Alaska is a heaven on Earth!

What scenery! This is my kind of trip. Live it up guys! 👍

Excellent video guys. Planning to travel through BC to Alaska for camping sometime in this year with my son. Your video and guidance will definitely help us plan our road trip along the Alaska highway. Thank you for sharing

My Grandfather was one of the thousands of civilians that worked on the ALCAN hwy in 1942 . He got sent out from Toronto Ontario , they were told to report to the train station for an " extended out of town job " . He had no idea where he was going until they were on the train.

It is a beautiful place the yukon I grew up at Creek Creek the first stop in the Yukon. 45 miles south of watson lake.looks like you guys had a great time.

New videos from you guys are the highlight of my week! My son and I love anticipating a "pillowy" comment about whatever yummy thing you are eating each week. Thank you for sharing your adventures!

What a beautiful area and your picture along with your videos This is one of mine favorite u tube events. Great job thru out . Lov lov it do more

My family drove the ALCAN in the summer of 1959 my things have changed-it was a real adventure-stayed at an Inn on Muncho Lake where we saw our first bears!

awesome! loving this grand adventure! looks like you're loving everything about the trip... as you should be! the views look epic and the adventure spectacular!

Lovely scenery on your trips , we love watching your videos !

Superb quality video, amazing adventure to Alaska ! So far away, beautiful episode filming 🎥 again .I really enjoyed to watch, so wilderness, no people on the road. It's so fascinating to see everything. Incredible spectacular scenery. Many thanks .

Cinnamon Rolls up there are Sourdough. The sourdough starters came up with the gold miners around 1850 from San Francisco, which is known as some of the best sourdough around.

Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. Your videos are awesome.

I love how you serenade the bears!! You definitely have fun - it's great to see. When we were in Yellowstone two years ago, we were calling out "Yo Bears," and my daughter who was two at the time starting calling out, "Go Squirrels!" It's a family joke now. So if you hear a family on your adventures calling "Go Squirrels," stop and say hi, that'll be us! And if we hear someone singing to the bears, we'll know it's you! :)

Your finally there! This has been a long time coming!! Can’t wait to see where to go in Alaska!

I watched last night, and I re-watched this morning. Such great scenery and wildlife. Looking forward to the Yukon leg of the journey.

Amazing Amazing and so beautiful!!! We are sure the best is yet to come!!! We can't wait!!!!

The stretch of road where the many black bears are seen…guess there are lots of wild strawberry plants growing under all that tall grass that they are feeding on! When I drove up in 2014, there was a lot of construction in that area and got that info from a couple of the flaggers. Thought it was interesting!!!

Loved all the beauty…I can’t wait to see how much more beautiful it gets because this was really awesome! That cinnamon roll was ridiculous…😋🤤. Loved all the driving dance moves and Kathryn’s comment to Adam, “what are you doing?” Haha! The hot springs looked so relaxing no wonder you stayed so long. And, Kona had a lot of time in the video which you know gamma loves❣️ Keep traveling safe and know that you are awesome and no one can take that away from you! 😘❤️❤️❤️🐶🥰

I’m from dawson creek so cool to see people start to come through again! :)

Two more days of my health recovery at home, I'm binge watching KZfaqs such as this channel. The backcountry space and air there must be refreshing from the big city..

Loving all the wildlife your encountering. Hot springs looked awesome. Your kooky endings always crack me up.😂😂

What a great lake surrounded by snow it's a great time to go swimming.

It was so fun to see you guys so excited; put a smile on my face! My husband watched this one and last weeks video and enjoyed it, too! I never tire of seeing the coffee shops you visit!

Thanks for the beautfiul video. I want to go on that highway , maybe. I would be fearful of grizzly bears out there walking on that trail.

Wonderful video!! Brings back great memories of the 6 trips I had with my parents. Last one being in 1988. We used a pick up truck with a homemade camper shell. The Alcan was gravel road at that time. Lots of construction too!! Met great people along the way. Would love to go back and experience it again! Watching your videos is awesome!! Thank you for sharing!! Enjoy your adventures!!🤩

Wow wow wow, that's awesome. Absolutely beautiful. So happy for you guys and for taking me along. Love your excitement. Be safe 🙏

We just came back from a trip on the Alaska highway! Enjoying reliving so many of the places we stopped at! We didn't go all the way into mainland Alaska. At Whitehorse we went down the Klondike highway into skagway, took a ferry into Haines, drove the Haines highway until we got to the Stewart cassiar highway and took that road all the way down. Was amazing!

That cobb salad was very northern European of you. I feel like when I go to places like Germany, Poland etc. have lots of cheese, meats and veggies for brekkie. I can't believe how little I knew of the Alaska highway. Had no idea that up until WW2 there was no road link, or the agreement with Canada. What was the animal at 11:55, I couldn't quite tell from its butt! 🤣 I've been loving all of the wild life you've shared with us in this clip from the bison and bears to the caribou. Laughed when you guys were like, this is the first time we've seen them then immediately afterwards you hiked with more. The hot springs were amazing and a real surprise, would never have guessed they were there! Those river shots at the end were immense. I thought when you guys went to the waters edge it was scarily dangerous, but then Whirlpool Canyon was something else! Such a gorgeous and really calming video this one ❤️

Gosh, very adventurous.

Another great episode. Thanks

So awesome!! Liard hot springs has been on my bucket list for a while!! Love the dancing in the car clip!!!

We enjoy watching your videos ,

Love Love Love This!!!!!

The Cobb bowl looked amazing! Thanks for the video - it shows the ruggedness of that part of the country!
