    I lived in Anchorage for 4 years. The Seward Highway and the Kenai are definitely my favorite parts of Alaska. I got to take my parents there as well.

    Wow, what a awesome series! Your Dad would have been proud of what you and your Mom achieved in such a short period of time. And so beautifully documented! Your story telling and editing skills are some of the best. It's evident you put a great deal of time, energy and effort into your productions. You made some great memories with your Mom, and most definitely fullfilled your promises. And to do it with your Mom at your side, driving her own vehicle on those roads and trails, crossing rivers, and setting up her own tent as well. She's a special Lady for sure. You have inspired this old Canadian to venture north in the not so distant future. Well done Michael, you just gained a new subscriber/follower.

    First time watching your channel was this series, as I was looking at new ways to enjoy Alaska. I've lived here all of my life and I forty years I've long gotten into a kind of complacent about it all. A mountains a mountain, trees a tree and all that. After a close call medical event a couple of years ago I'd realized I needed to shake things up and enjoy Alaska again, get back out there. I was thinking over turning to Overlanding for that, and found your channel via it. Great content, wonderful trip. I did feel bad for you two, you came during a year with outside of normal rainfall for the month.
    Also I didn't expect to see Craig! Twenty years ago we were big into the suby wrx scene and had some fun times. I didn't know he'd set up this business, so I'm going to have to bug him about it now haha.
    Cheers and I hope you two come back some day. Merry Christmas from Alaska!

    • @ConquestOverland
      @ConquestOverland  Рік тому

      I can understand that and see how a little shake up from time to time can help keep the adventurous spirit going. For our first visit to Alaska, we were certainly blown away with its beauty. Rain or shine each day served and provide a whole new appreciation for the landscape we were in. That is one of the beautiful things traveling or that overlanding can bring. The adventure is completely in your hands with the rig and tools you have at that time. There were moments I'd would have loved to have a camper to hide out from the weather but we made due and enjoyed each day with the setup we had.
      Have fun out there and appreciate the little things while on trips. Sometimes even reading a book near a soft flowing river can bring that sense of fulfillment vs. witnessing a towering snow-capped mountain peak (although I do love those too) 😉
      Definitely give Craig a shout as well! Great guy and awesome business, wouldn't have done our first visit any other way!
      Hope you have a wonderful New Years and safe travels for 2023!

    INCREDIBLE.... As a little YoutTube channel jeepNdirt that I started for fun, I was inspired by this type of video. As I came across your channel (and will now be subscribed and watching the series) and I can't say enough how talented you are. Great story telling, great video footage, great editing, and WOW just inspiring. I'm not planning on being a big UA-camr (unless I get really lucky, lol) but as I plan and complete future trips, if I at least do one video of a trip to Alaska, I know that much of the inspiration came from just this one video (and I haven't even started the series). Just awesome. Great job. God Bless you and your Mom.
