- Leaving Alaska: Kluane National Park, Haines, & Skagway | Go North Ep 18
Our 6 month Alaska, Canada, and Arctic road trip continues in this episode as we depart mainland Alaska and start heading south. We spend some time camping along the Alaska or Alcan Highway and Kluane National Park, learning about the second largest mountain in North America, Mount Logan, and enjoying the amazing fall colors. Kluane National Park stretches west of the highway here all the way to the Canadian-Alaskan border that it shares with Wrangell-St. Elias National Park that we had visited earlier in the trip in Alaska. It is a part of a larger Kluane / Wrangell-St. Elias / Glacier Bay / Tatshenshini-Alsek UNESCO World Heritage Site that encompasses 4 national & provincial parks and protects over 24 million acres of American and Canadian lands and the world's largest non-polar ice fields.
We head through Haines Junction down to Haines Alaska through the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. In Haines we visit the world famous Hammer Museum then hop on the Alaska Marine Highway to cross over to Skagway. This port is popular for cruising to and has many excursion activities, however our weather was poor and we only did a little shopping. Finally we drive White Pass, visit the Carcross Desert and end up in Whitehorse Yukon to reprovision.

Thanks for joining us as we head south! This was shot at the end of September. Two more episodes after this one :)
YEH !!
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot my password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Cassius Rylan instablaster ;)
@Rey Davian Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Rey Davian it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my ass !
I think you’re the first You Tube presenter that doesn’t blab on and on about detail that no one cares about. Smart!
I liked the style of map you used too.
And thanks for not begging for “likes” and “subscribers”.
And no blabbing on during an intro.
Excellent !!!!!!
Very enjoyable to watch and learn, thank you.
Yeah they just get right to the point!
Going back summer 2021, taking my wife and the R.V., last time summer of 1988, solo and single. Great video! THANKS!
Have fun!
Love your videos!!!
Hi this is Isaac. Love watching you very informative, love truck campers. I wish you would go down south where it’s nice and warm, I get cold just by watching you.
Ha! It was a chilly trip, except the Fairbanks bit. We do hope to do a warm weather trip ... Maybe Mexico!
Those mushrooms were magical. 🤔
Yes another fabulous episode! It was fun seeing you drive from Skagway along the Klondike Highway to Carcross Desert - the sand drive we did back in 2017! Loved the scenes of running through the sand and earlier with the rock skimming. We are going to be so sad when this series ends! But know that more exciting things are yet to come from you guys. Until then. Keep on having fun!!! 😎👍❤️
So glad you guys got to see it too! Its an amazing place :)
GORGEOUS!
Thank you for this series. My wife and I spent 47 years in Alaska, we both miss it, but health issues have us now living in Arizona. You brought back many memories of our time in Alaska.
So glad you joined us and enjoyed it :)
You guys are doing life right :)
Pl do post more travel vlogs and cities of usa, throughly enjoying watching your vlogs
Lol I'm going to be sad to see this series end. I enjoyed it so much!
Fantastic as always! When the final video post in this "Go North" series, I plan to binge watch the entire series. Sad to see it end but looking forward to your outstanding regular content and/or what adventures you guys have coming up.
Thank you guys so much for doing such beautiful work.
So awesome.
Watching your series has been so much fun. My husband and I binged watched the entire series up until this point in two days. It made us want to go back to Alaska and experience all of the things we didn't get to see. Your adventure is spectacular!
Thanks Meagan! Glad you are enjoying it!
Nicely done Morton’s. Appreciate you taking us along.
From SURPRISE, AZ - Wow, Alaska is such a beautiful place.
inspired by every episode!!!!
AMEN !!
Same here amazing work!
Hello T/C. What a breathtaking trip! When all the pieces of my puzzle come together, I too will full-time it in a Lance 1172, I love the side door entry! With a dodge dually with all the bells and whistles... and air bags too! Lol. I've taken so many notes and your video clearly helps me set a pathway towards my goal!!!! Thanks for the info. Randy in Toledo. Safe travels always.
Loved watching you guys' Alaska trip
Kokanee salmon are also found in many areas of the lower 48. I’ve seen them in Oregon and Idaho lakes and streets.
Thanks for sharing your journey!
Correct, great fishing at strawberry lake in Utah.
I’ve in joyed your travels so much and informative. Can’t wait to see more
Amazing footage and a wonderful job! Thanks for sharing!
We really enjoyed this series. 👍
Another awesome episode! 🏞
I loved this series! I’ve made tons of notes. Hopefully, I’ll get to visit soon!! Thank you 😊
Another enjoyable video. You guys do a great job!
Another great episode!
There are also Kokanee salmon in Kootenay Lake near Nelson, British Columbia. Each September, many visitors come to see the spawning salmon in the spawning channels in Kokanee Creek Provincial Park located north of Nelson on Kootenay Lake.
You guys remind me of the band boston. It's always fun when the new album comes out. It just takes seven years give or take. Lol
Here my recommendation for Alaska and the Yukon, unless you want to miss out on attractions or like driving on possibly snowy roads, Last week in May to First week in September! Plus the fall colors are well past their peak.
Awesome! Great presentation!
Another video filled with beautiful scenery and great narration, guys! Have to say, though, that wind looked C-O-L-D!!! Look forward to seeing the final episodes, then, seeing y'all back home and Caitlin taking possession of the truck! Y'all Be Safe!
loved your trip happy new year and safe travels
Awesome !!!
Beautiful vlog .
Excellent production quality and values. Thanks for all your hard work.
Wow - again!
Your editing skills are on point! Great job!
It's surprising they didn't sell this to one of the travel channels as a TV series. It looks so professional.
I'm a big fan of truck campers and have really enjoyed this series. Can't help but wonder how this experience has changed your thinking about them. We've had 4 pull behind travel trailers and we are now on our 5th truck camper. Once you get to know their versatility, it's hard to consider a pull behind as an option :-)
What a trip!
Fantastic series. I've enjoyed it so far. It's a place we are very interested in exploring
Another nicely produced and narrated video. It was interesting to compare and contract our experiences a week or so before you you were through this route. We continued to experience green northern lights from Tok to Kluane Lake. We also enjoyed the Hammer Museum plus the distillery in Haines. We finally saw grizzlies catching salmon in the Chilkoot River upstream from the ferry. Our ferry to Skagway was almost empty. We stayed at the RV Park right where the cruise ships disembark and within walking distance of the historic district of town. Stayed in the same RV Park in Whitehorse that we had stayed at in June when the provincial park on the outskirts of town was still full. It was interesting to contrast the almost empty RV park with the leaves falling to the full one of peak season almost 3 months before.
I remember going from Washington DC to Bellingham WA, then taking the Ferry up to Haines, then drive on to Fairbanks. This was,, wow almost 20 years ago.
looks like a fun trip guys
YEH !!! I been waiting for another vdeo , LOve you guys , Good luck! I LOVE HAMMERS !
Great vid ya'll.
Great video... super photography... great narration glad I found your UA-cam channel keep up the good work
I concur with Joye. Excellent. :-))))))))
I love your videos, we have been to a lot of the places you have covered but can’t go anymore because of a vision problem so thanks for letting us see these places again :)
Glad to have you along :)
White Pass trail was the other route loads of potential Klondike prospectors used to get North. The White Pass trail has a train that travels the route explaining all about the hike. RCMP outpost still on the trail to ensure that people had the required gear with them. Enjoying your journey thus far.
Thank you Tom/Caitlan for taking the time, equipment, & expertise to share this adventure; I'm vicariously with you every step of the way. I wish you'd fished for the Kuane Salmon & shown us as you catch, clean, & cook it.
Buff Headgear - I've been wondering for months, why you're NOT wearing Buff Headgear in the cold temperatures instead of scarves/beanies? The Hammer Museum was a very interesting & spontaneous sojourn.
Battle Born Batteries has announced they will start manufacturing & selling INTERNALLY HEATED batteries sometime in the first quarter of 2020.
How has that Dometic CRX cooler worked out for you & what kinds/types of perishibles are you storing in it & for how long?
great video, this has been an been an amazing series, the truck and camper looked like the ideal set up. we did a cruise and land tour of Alaska in june and visited many of the cities you did. the thought of a 12,000 mile trip in the dutch star did not appeal to us as we would be starting in FLA. thanks for all the beautiful footage
Very nice video thank you
... as always, well done! tx ~ S
so loved meeting you all wished I could have gotten a sticker but you all were so busy lol loving these videos you all are awesome :) hope we can get a sticker soon take care
:) we will need to make some eventually
And so we wait with bated breath... for your last Alaskan Adventure. Keep the good stuff coming and pat Mocha and Bella on the head for me.
1 of the few places left to get away stay away be away. I love it. H♡
New to your channel. We are hoping to make it to Alaska this year or next; depending on somethings. Can't wait to catch up on your travels and learn from you! Safe travels.
My wife and I definitely want to travel the Marine Highway for part of our future journey to Alaska. Loved the video, thank you!
check the schedule very carefully, many of the ferries are dry docked for repairs but if you do run into delays that should just be part of the wonderful journey
top o video.
We're Dutch and we were also on the same ferry from Haines to Skagway. We saw you filming (we love the result! ) and saw your truckcamper. So I took a picture of it (to remember the web address).
:) Glad you liked it and it was nice sailing with you :)
There is Kokanee salmon in the lakes around Helena Montana
We visited Haines last year and really enjoyed that Hammer Museum. Who would have known there were that many different types of hammers I think between 7000 to 9000 they had inventory
As allways super good and inspiring., if ever anyone asks how to do a travel VLOG , I will direct my fingers right to you ...
Yeah they style is great and high production value
Kokanne are found ALL OVER B.C. AND ALBERTA[ almost all large lakes ], not just there. Otherwise i DO Love the series you've done so far. I am happy you did take some time to see B.C. too many Americans miss B.C. completley and there is just as much to see here as there is in Alaska. If time is not a problem come to BC in early april and migrate north with the temp and do the same in the fall thru sept, oct can be hit or miss in the higher regions but beautiful colors and warm daytimes abound. CHEERS Steve h.
Kokanee are also found native in other places.They are natively found in the United States in places like Alaska, Idaho, Washington, and Oregon. They are also abundantly found in British Columbia and the Yukon Territory.
Like many other species of game fish, they have also been introduced in places they aren't native. There are now kokanee populations in places like Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, the Dakotas, New York, California, and Montana.
We have the same thing with those Salmon here in Utah and Strawberry Reservoir.
Boondocking on Klaune lake? I guess if you don’t like campfires and love wind!
Makes me want to get an F-350 4x4 and truck camper to travel. Guess that was the idea from Lance eh? LOL. Great editing and music. You in Tampa, FL for the big RV show now???
We have Kokanee Salmon in Montana.
The Kokanee also live in some lakes in Colorado
We would love to ride the ferry from Bellingham, Washington to Ketchikan. After exploring Alaska, we would drive back on Alaska highway.
J J It would be a great way to go as long as you are not traveling with pets. As the Morton’s point out dogs must stay in your vehicle which was fine for this one hour leg, but from Washington is another matter. You only get to visit and relieve them a few times a day🥴
@@kxrv6629 Thanks for your reply. No pets currently. The kids took pets after college graduation.
Did you have to give the truck & camper back to Lance & start traveling in your own truck & living in your own rig again ? Did you bring back any Salmon from Alaska ? Decades ago While I was still living & working in upstate New York State I went on a one way Alaska cruise from Vancouver , BC the ports were Juneau , Ketchican & Sitka cruise ended in Seward . It was awesome .
Correct, We have moved back into our fifth. We did bring the salmon back frozen in that dometic cooler... in fact its still running at 3F full of fish :)
Battle born Batteries, as an engineer, I would most welcome a 50 AMP hr at a 40% price point. That can be stacked in the future purchase of expansion. Scale small entry point to 24 plugged together in a super system. Plugged in “series” & “ parallel at the same time is the best trick Elon ever taught us.
Awesome video..Beautiful scenery..I've never been to Alaska..How did your vehicle and camper fair on the trip for mechanical problems? Thank you for the video..Have a blessed day..
We will cover this in more detail in vids after the series but no we didnt have any mechanical problems except the wires getting eaten.
Can you do a video on such a big truck camper and the pros and cons and the driving a pickup with such a heavy camper? Thanks
One 👍 doesn’t work on this one. I give it two 👍👍
Wait. Wha’, y’all still there? I got behind a bit, but whew, don’t wanna get caught up there this time of year, right?
I was wondering if Katlyn drove most of the trip, it seems I always saw her in the drivers seat when ever there was video from the inside of the truck.
Too short loved all 14 minutes and 46 seconds. 👊👍😎
pretty........
You mentioned Kokanee Salmon as only being found in that 1 lake? I have caught Kokanee in Colorado, so I either misinterpreted your statement, or you were misinformed. Millions of Kokanee are raised and stocked in Blue Mesa Lake in Colorado to feed the giant Lake Trout there, that attract anglers from all over the world.
inside this camper in winter with temperature below zero is condensation?
you post today where is the snow ? lol
As I stated previously, I am interested in buying your rig.
Any Sasquatch’s
Unfortunately no :(
Your facts about Kokanee salmon are false. They exist all thru out BC naturally
Your the only tourist to ever visit skagway and not take the trainride🤔🤡🤔🤡
