I have lived in Hope for 47 years. Thank you for the wonderful photography and taking me on hikes that I am too old for now. I came for a weekend visit and have never left. The beauty of the Arm makes life worth living.

The Turnagain Arm is breathtaking! Your video and photo work is unsurpassed and the music is so wonderful as well! Alaska has a hold on me and I will return again next Spring to visit with the amazing woodcarvers of Ketchikan once again...to learn and to carve. Thanks you so much for your wonderful videos...they simply bless me!

Hey Bob! Oh, we are so happy you enjoyed this most recent sojourn into Alaska! Maybe next year as we leave Alaska we will have the opportunity to visit Ketchikan. The whole region south of Skagway is still unexplored by us! We hope hope hope it can work out that we can make it over there - it sounds amazing!

what beautiful footage! I lived there many years but never seen the Turnagain like this. Thanks for all your wonderful knowledge and videos. It is sad how much the glacier receded. In the 80's you could literally see the glacier and touch the ice flow from the shore of the lake!

@ArtWeThereYet 3 ай бұрын

Yes, it's staggering to think of how quickly Portage Glacier has receded. Just this winter, we walked out onto the ice all the way to the glacier. We had never seen it before, as it is now so far back you have to round the mountain to see it. 😥

True work of Art!! I was exploring for details on bamff & jasper when I tumbled upon your channel & couldn’t stop myself from watching back to back. Right from the name to the content, from editing, narration to music everything is so artful (rare on KZfaq). It’s a proper professional work of travel production. Being an Indian and exploring Himalayas from last few years I took Alaska as a touch & go destination, but the way you have shown now its definitely in my bucket list for longer exploration.

Hi Cora and Jose. My wife and I have been loving your videos since we stumbled upon them while researching our next adventure to Banff and Jasper (yours are our favourite videos we have seen so far btw). So much so that the next program we watch as a couple won't be on Netflix or normal TV but 'Halibut' that you just released the other day. For the KZfaq algorithm you may have this comment and my first ever KZfaq 'like'. (We are already subscribed). Keep the videos coming.

Epic video. Perspective is funny. We saw the Turnagain ice tide and we're creeped out. We went as far as Girdwood and went back. It felt so creepy. It was very cloudy outside so it felt like living in a black and white movie.

@ArtWeThereYet 8 ай бұрын

Isn't that interesting?! For us, the first time we saw it, we didn't even realize it was moving until we stopped the car. We were traveling in the same direction, and so it just looked like the arm was covered in stable ice. Then we pulled over and all of a sudden we could see the motion of it, and it was SO TRIPPY!!!

Hey youngin’s, Rev. Paul, Eustis Florida. What in this world would stop the melting?? In just a day1/2…. A massive volcanic eruption, a Little Bit Bigger than Honga Tonga. I also lived through the 1964 earthquake largest ever in N. America if you would like the 5 min and 15 seconds of it and what transpired after just ask…. :)

Just FYI unless you really seriously know what you’re doing, DO NOT GO WALKING OUT ON THE MUD FLATS. I live in Anchorage and I swear just about every year I hear about somebody who goes out there, gets stuck in suck mud (which is basically quicksand), then dies when high tide comes. Every time I hear about it my first thought is, “what were they thinking going out there?”. I learned at a very early age to respect & fear suck mud so it seems crazy to me that people go out there without knowing better. AK is an incredibly beautiful state, I highly recommend going on hikes ANYWHERE OTHER THAN THE MUD FLATS.

Too bad you don’t like history or geology and sorry you have to see another Alaskan glacier, they just have too many glaciers here, it’s very hard not to include one in our videos! 😂🤣
