      Why don't you show your food preparation and clearing away activity as well? It would really be fun to watch and learn a trick or two about cooking on the road, and break the monotony of just driving and speeding down long roads through nature's varying topography, vegetation and changing weather conditions, not that they are not beautiful to see and marvel at. Thanks for taking us along. Can't wait to get to the 66.5 degree N latitudinal circle. So exciting!!!!¡. All the BEST for you and Trudy. 😎😧😁

    mosquito spray is meat marinade , if you wanna keep the mosquito away get you some skin so soft by avon. It's too late for ya now, but for future visit to high mosquito or even no see ums, very effective stink oil

    Yep the right decision but you’re both so brave. I guess that’s why you’re driving with your friends. Thank you for this epic journey. And I’ve said it before - the roads are nowhere as bad as Georgia and you were up a mountain there!!!! Can’t wait for next videos xxx

    I got a chip on my windscreen a few weeks ago on a 10,000km trip around the NW of WA and I went to a mechanic in Derby. He told me to go to Woolies and get some superglue! So I did and applied a bit to the chip and it works!!! Just make sure that the gle doesn't drip down the windscreen like it did on mine!

    I was in Dawson City many years ago and was fascinated by an lndian walking path high up above the river. I would love to return just to walk that path. When we arrived at the Yukon border we were given a stamp in our passports of a gold miner and his donkey. All over the world that stamp has surprised customs officials . Great video, first time viewer from Australia. 🌈🐨

    Taking down the air pressure a bit will help with the rough roads but you will need to bring the pressure up once you get back to the hiway.
    I normally will take my jeep down to about 25-30 psi (normally 35 psi) for these roads.

  • @adrianadrian255
    @adrianadrian255 2 роки тому +1

    you were lucky to hit some rain, it really Kees the dust down - if you weren't doing it, its a good idea to turn off the cars ventilation fans when you pass a truck too. - you should also open up the vans air filter and give it a good bang, they can really clog on road dust. For your own sanity - or just to lessen fatigue - at Canadian Tire or hardware stores you can buy big bags or tubs of zip ties. They come in various lengths and will join together to make longer lengths, but if your awning or something else is rattling a lot, its an easy way to silence it.

    Have an adventurous but smooth, trouble free, nice time in those desolate lands. And also thanks for taking us with you.
    Here, in Türkiye they say if a lorry is coming en face on a gravel road, you should push your thumb onto the windshield to prevent it from cracking. It might work. Desperate times require desperate solutions. 😅

    This looks amazing! I’ve always wanted to do this and we’re hoping to get up there in the next couple of years. Love the midnight sun! Those gas stations are funny. We had to detour 200km once in Australia as the pumps were locked up! We found out later they would have unlocked them for us. Something to keep in mind for your Aussie trip.

    Definitely the right decision you made! And travelling in tandem is a safety net in case one vehicle breaks down. It's super interesting for those of us who won't ever go to such places. You can watch a documentary on a place but that's not the same thing as following adventurers like yourselves on the actual road and learning and seeing as you go the route. Loving it!

    Now THIS is what I believe we humans are meant to do! Unfortunately, many of us relegate ourselves to the sedentary lifestyle, only active when shopping at the local big box stores and chain restaurants. I'm currently stuck in a town filled with them. Your channel helps me escape the mundanity. I thank you two very much for bringing me along on your journey!

    You did a fine job and got to see a lot of interesting scenic views, a Grizzly Bear, the Moose, the bicyclist and many big rig trucks. Good work for that 14 hours of driving. The children are very well behaved and seem involved and enjoying the travel which is also very nice. Wishing you safe and happy travels ahead. Can't wait for the next episode of your adventure!

    Extreme dusty conditions! That means you need to wash down the trail dust with Canadian beer. Make sure you sing great Canadian songs about driving in Canada like Moving On by Hank Snow or Summer Wages by Ian Tyson about driving to Vancouver.

And the drone shots! 😱😱 Thanks to the Commonwealth on that point! 😉 Glad to see the truckers giving space and slowing down for you; don't think they would be so thoughtful on the Alaska side.

    If you think gas barrels at the gas station is wild, the bush pilots who service the north, will leave caches of fuel barrels out in the wilderness for them to refuel from when needed. Across the north of Canada and Alaska, the bush pilots are a breed apart, especially in winter, they are the only way the north can operate, they bring supplies to towns and mines, they are the ambulances that take patients or pregnant women to hospitals when needed. The Beaver plane is actually regarded as a symbol of Canada and together with Otters and Twin Otters, they service the North.
    On at least two occasions now, people have been rescued from the South Pole by Canadian bush pilots. I think the first time was around 2016? It has always been considered impossible to rescue staff from the South Pole research centres during the winter. After a worker or workers became seriously ill down there one year, no country would allow any of its pilots to fly down there, no Air Force had the capability, so a bunch of Canadian bush pilots flew down from Alberta, down through South America and then finally across Antartica, in blizzards and -60 weather in a couple of Twin Otters. There's very little down there in the way of beacons or navigation aids, total darkness and no chance of rescue in an emergency. - in the North, they would have the chance of rescue from the other pilots, down there, nothing.
