i love this video. I really enjoy simple showcases of experiences like this instead of the fancy content creation vlog style videos. It feels more real and attainable and community-minded. I hope to ride the ferry one day soon so this is great to see!

Hi Dan! This is Steve! We rode up together. In fact I’m the guy near the end in the lumberjack shirt. I had a dynamite summer, hope you did too.

Wow Steve, of course I remember you. That was a sentinel experience for me. I thought I might cross paths with you but lost your info of course. I toured the state till late July, almost 3 months. Didn’t make it to Prudhoe Bay but did get to Coldfoot on the Dalton Highway. Be cool to reconnect. I’m going back up next spring.

@@DanielFCutter I stayed home this summer but also am thinking about going back up next summer. I thought we’d bump into each other too and kept my eye open but it never happened. Put Homer on your list and then take the ferry out to Dutch Harbor. It was the highlight of my summer! Watch for Carol too, she’s everywhere! Haha.

Yea we need to talk! While I explored the Turnagain inlet and Whittier I didn’t go to Homer. After 6 weeks of solitude I was shell shocked by the amount of RVs heading down there so turned around. Next summer perhaps. A ferry to the Aleutian Islands.

Remember Carol? The ferry employee? I bumped into her again going from Homer to Kodiak and then again from Skagway to Bellingham on my way home in September.

Thanks Dan for the video. I am planning a trip for May of 24 to Juneau by either the Marine Highway or drive to Skagway & use the highway to get to Juneau. We have an expedition cruise starting in Sitka & ends in Juneau. Then by car to explore the interior of Alaska for a time before returning to the lower 48. I'm currently thinking of one way by Marine Highway & drive the other (either North to start or South at the end). I know costs will likely go u year to year but, what was the cost of passage with the car?

@DanielFCutter 7 ай бұрын

About $1000 for the car and $500 for a passenger if you camp out on the top deck. A state room costs more. That was from Bellingham to Skagway. So maybe cheaper for only part of that distance. The sooner you book the “cheaper”it is as they engage in what they call Dynamic Billing or something. As the boat fills up the price goes up. Call them-they are very responsive and its easy to book your trip!

@@DanielFCutter Thank you Dan. Their schedule is not yet available for May. I check every week. "Dynamic billing" is something they learned from the airlines. Sometimes called "Demand rate structure." I'd want a stateroom. My tent camping days are pretty much over since I turned 75. Not that I couldn't, just that I'd rather not with artificial knee & less stamina than ten years ago.

@@dennislyons3095 May is perfect. They are having some huge staffing issues and not all destinations are available. But the inside passage is their bread and butter--I can’t wait to go again.

Nice video, took the same route four weeks later, the solarium was much busier then

what month did you travel? I am going in the middle of June - walking on and sleeping on a chair on the deck. Going to Juneau to hike around for 3 days and then flying back to Seattle. If I have some sun on some of the days - figure that is hitting the jackpot. Never been to Alaska.
