    Hey Quinlan! Thanks for another awesome video, so jealous. My next trip to Japan will definitely include more of the North. So is there any chance you can have an "Xtra" type channel, or a patreon channel, to show a 2 hour version of these videos? 10 minutes really isn't enough for these beautiful places ;)
    Great work - keep it up.

      @GoNorthJapan  4 роки тому +12

      Wow! I would love to do that. Wasn't sure if there would be any interest yet. I will look into that. Could do a Patreon that provides access to both big clips of done and/or hiking footage with no talking, videos exploring ruins that are kind of "off limits" so I don't want to get in trouble by putting them on the normal public channel, etc.

    Amazing video, it's unbelievable how much snow there still is in mid June. Here in Austria you now need to go up to a glacier at around 3.000 meters to find that much.
    Is there so much snow that it just takes forever to melt or are the temperatures lower in spring/summer?

    • @GoNorthJapan
      @GoNorthJapan  4 роки тому +1

      That area is around 1,500 meters, but still the snow remains. Temperatures are cooler than down in the river plains where Morioka is located. But it's not all that cold during the day. Right now it's around 20 degrees up there during the day.

    Trully drone footage gives these videos a whole extra dimention. And the pictures look really like hyper realistic paintings of alien words...

    • @GoNorthJapan
      @GoNorthJapan  4 роки тому +1

      I use Epidemicsound.com for all the music. I just pay a monthly fee and I can use anything in their library and it's huge. (Maybe when I get more subscribers I could promote them and start getting it for free... one less monthly bill would be good. It's like about $15 a month for the music... and quite a bit more than that per month for the Adobe Creative Suite...)
      Anyway...! That song is called Divergent - by Ooyy.

    have you ever had any serious bear encounters?

    • @GoNorthJapan
      @GoNorthJapan  4 роки тому

      Not really serious, no. I've seen them in the mountains while on foot about 8 or 9 times, but in almost every single case they were already moving away from me by the time I noticed them. (I've also seen them crossing the road a good half dozen times as well while driving.)
      A couple weeks ago when I saw one near the summit of Mt. Iwate it was the most intimidating as the bear stopped for 3 seconds to look at me before moving on at a gradual pace. I was freaked out and stood still holding my pepper spray bottle out in front of me defensively, but he never came at so it was all good.
