We had over a 1700 mile journey on the Alaska highway as we made our journey to Alaska from the lower 48. That’s a long drive no matter what- but if you factor in the reduced speed in the RV, stopping to checkout random points of interest/wilderness sightings, and fueling up way too often, it become a REALLY long drive.
Topping it all off- we went through some of the most epic road construction we’ve ever experienced. Summer is the peak of road construction season through Canada and Alaska. The quality of the temporary lanes that were constructed while the main roadway was being fixed were something I wouldn’t see again until riding a motorcycle on the Dalton. Compounding the effect, our RV is quite possibly the worst vehicle ever built at handling any sort of dips, bumps or anything NOT perfectly flat.
While we initially tried to fight it, we would end each driving day with random cabinets open and contents spewed everywhere.
Around the midway point of the drive we took a break to explore the Watson Lake Signpost Forest. Fin has watched Keep Your Daydream for quite some time and knew that they had placed custom sign in the forest and had a neat little riddle out there to use to track it down.
As most things do, this led to an intense competition between us to see who could find it first.

ABOUT US:
We’re traveling full time, living on our own terms and showing you the up-close-and-personal details of us figuring it out along the way. Sometimes it’s about navigating big, life-altering decisions. Sometimes it’s about navigating the seemingly lawless free-for-all that is driving in Hanoi. It’s moments of triumph and moments of panic. The good, the bad, the ugly - and most importantly, the real and real funny.
We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.” Just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem. We believe the world’s a more interesting place when people reject convention in favor of what they actually care about. This is us putting that idea to the test - one budget spreadsheet, RV renovation and mountain-peak drone video at a time.

In 1973 I was 22. I left Phoenix Az in a 1960 Chevy station wagon. I thought I'd drive to Anchorage, Ak. (Yes, I guess I was crazy) I stopped by southern California to say Hi & bye to my mom. My oldest brother was at her house. He said, "Where are you going?" "To Alaska." I said. "When?" "In about a half hour". "Can I go with you. give me an hour!" OK". At that time the entire Alcan Highway was unpaved. I cannot begin to tell you about the adventures we had. It was a trip my brother and I will never forget!
Who needs Netflix when you have that dog and windshield wipers? 😂
Fun scene at the beginning of the great sign hunt!
Hah thanks!
I remember being in A coach bus going from the Yukon to Alaska! So many potholes! We would say Potholes! Every time the bus went over one
Goodness what a fun couple you are! I subscribed after seeing this one :) I first drove the Alcan June 1970 when we moved to Alaska...it was still dirt and gravel back then...verrrrrrry dusty!
Great video guys. Love the personalities. Pretty cool that you have met KYD and found their sign. We got to meet Jason from "Gone With The Wynn's" this summer. Hope to see you on the road
Just subscribed...as I've been a KYD subscriber for over a year, and watched their Alaska Adventure...so now I'll watch yours! Thanks for the opportunity! We're new to owning a motorhome, as it's been trailers/truck & camper for the last few decades, looking forward to new future adventures. We have driven to Alaska (twice) and I look forward to the next time, as the sights/scenery are second to none, yet we're also looking forward to seeing more of south of the 49th....as we're Canadian, and love exploring 'small town America' and learning of the adventures yet to come. Drive safe and enjoy each and every day! Oh, and I thought I'd mention....I met Marc & Tricia at one of their 'meet up's' while they where heading south through British Columbia prior to going through the border headed for home! :)
Yay!!! You found the sign! Now we know what the area looks like!!
You two are awesome. Great content. We can see how much work you put in your videos. Stay safe.
Just stumbled upon our channel and amazingly found this video. I grew up in Dawson Creek, B.C. and loved seeing the familiar sights. I hope you found the souvenir t-shirts that said "I drove the Alaska highway and lived!". Always a classic.
So we're heading to Alaska in a few weeks and I found your channel. Absolutely the BEST thing I've ever found 😂 Such wonderful adventures and lots of laughs! Excuse me while I go binge watch your channel for the next few weeks lol. ❤
So funny...we talked about your KYD encounter when we met and you just perfectly described how I felt rambling away to you 😂 Starstruck ⭐️💫🌟
I was six days behind you on Aug 2. I was coming up from Seattle on my motorcycle. Loved your video. Well done. Laird Hot Springs was funny. I went a little closer to the source than you but it was hot
I love how you said you have seen that in peoples youtube videos!!! I do that all the time and my husband chuckles cause I reference almost everything to youtube rather than Google.
That's constantly coming out of Fin's mouth as we were driving around. On the other hand, I like to know as little as possible where ever I go because I love to be surprised (and I always have Fin to rely on if i'm REALLY lost).
Was there with my son, summer of 2017. Loved it, will be coming back on another tour with the whole family.........CHEERS.............Steve and Sandra
Awesome!! Love KYD thanks for sharing
very awesome footage n also awesome nature...I loved it
I just stumbled onto your travel vlogs yesterday and have been powering through them. You two are so much fun to watch.
Oh man...FUN! That Hot Spring was freakin' amazing!
Lol, yes when we were up there so many ppl were complaining about their cupboards and stuff being destroyed from the vibrations.
You commented on the price of gas being over $4 a gallon. You forgot to mention how much further your US $ goes in Canada
I mean, that's $4 with all glallons/liter and USD/CAD conversions factored in. It was pricey. On the flip side, now that we're back to filling up a car for $25 we almost laugh when the pump turns off.
Great Video... This is what my dream vacation would be... Love it.. Thank you for putting this up. Safe travels....
Entertaining and nicely edited as always! Happy travels!
Oh my goodness - where to start... SUCH A GREAT EPISODE - pepper & the windscreen wipers.... too cute! Your editing has really gone next level, there are few travel UA-camrs that actually know how to use the music to bring the audience on the adventure with you but you guys have NAILED IT!!! You deserve so many more subscribers 👍😍 love charlie xx
Oh Charlie you just always have the nicest things to say!! XO
TIM and FIN well you guys have brilliant and engaging videos that you obviously put a lot of time and effort into! It’s refreshing when this platform seems to be filling up with people pumping out content just for the sake of it!!
Drive through Karakorum highway, u will forget Alaska Highway
We left a sign in the forest too, back in 2016!
OMG Grand Cache is where the van acted up! Aside from that your vid brings back great memories of our summer AK trip. Another entertaining vid, thanks! 🏆
I'll be making the trip down from Alaska to Texas here in the next week thanks for the insight I will definitely check that sign forest out. 😀

Your editing is amazing!!! 🙌 Also, loved Pepper's Birthday haha! Can't wait for the next video!
Great videography
Beautiful! Looking forward to more Alaska vids! Thanks for sharing!!
amazing
Alaska highway is a good title, we have so few roads! 😂😂
So human and authentic. Your editing style and storytelling is endearing. Made me smile a few times. “So level.” And jackets on point 😉. Only thing that I found a bit jarring was filming in a public hot spring? Ethics seemed a bit off to me. Respect
Happy bday pepper!!!
Beautiful country, but them roads. Wow!!
Geographically Alaska is a part of Yukon and Canadian land .
I loved your sincerity. Have fun. Happy birthday pepper
You guys are getting so profesh! I love it. Makes me want to travel to Alaska.
Another quality video. You are at least a 100k subscriber channel. It will happen!
That's very kind, thank you!
How did you guys do laundry ? Did you have a washer in your camper
Awww your doggy ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Aw wish I’d have known y’all came through! I’m up outside of Fairbanks but travel all around in the summer.
