I do miss the boys but it’s also really nice to see you both enjoying the extra freedom you have when going out on adventures. You can just worry about yourselves and be only limited by your own ambitions. Loving it! 👍🏻
I also miss the boys. They always brought a smile to me. I hope you guys consider expanding your family soon.
Thanks for including Pepper too
Dogs teach us everything about unconditional love, yet nothing about how to live without them. ❤ Heres to all our friends waiting at the Rainbow Bridge for us❤️♥️❤️😊
Watching from Africa in middlle of our summer and chills running on my skin. So beautiful and quiet. The temperatures are beyond what I can comprehend. My body never experienced lower than -4°C (24.8°F) Loved Pepper's little chirp.
Much respect folks, you certainly take advantage of the brutal cold find a way to enjoy it. Your videos are spectacular and deserve a 5 star review, thanks for sharing and stay warm Brrrrrrrr.
It’s amazing that after all these years you continue to be the BEST. Please keep pumping out these awesome videos so that we can continue to live vicariously through your lens in the warmth of our comfy homes! You are so admired for your tenacity and adventurous spirit. Party on kids ✌️
Love you both! Joy to watch!🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
I totally agree. I would never see some of these things if it weren't for this channel. I just love them.
At age 80 I can't imagine the energy you both have, throwing out the trash is a big deal for me, I live in Montana so in my younger days I was more outside even in the winter. Your videos are great I really enjoy everything you guys do, best wishes and have a great holiday and news years, you are the best, your videos are 5 stars every time . Cheers, Michael
So nice having a heated shop to work from! Awesome video!
When I see your cat Pepper. I have called her BLACK BEAUTY and always will.❤
Eric calls her Black Magic 🥰
You guys are so amazing!!! Everything you do is the ultimate ❤️❤️🎄☃️🥰🥇🇨🇦
HAHAHAHAHA @23:48 When you first pulled the kindling out of the Backpack 🎒 i thought 🤔 damn a pack of Dynamite? 🧨 😂🤣
Beautiful sunrise! Love love ❤️ watching you guys! Best of luck today! I am enjoying the calendar I ordered .
Wow! Setting of for a trip without your vehicle being covered in snow! That must feel so awesome!!
the shop is paying off this winter for you, nice warm truck & a warm place to work too!! beautiful country thanks for sharing with us & be safe out there!!
Everybody thumbs up for Pepper 🎉
those landscapes at minute 7:00 were simply otherworldy! whata privilege to see that, thanks for sharing the natural beauty of Alaska to the rest of the world!
Pree-teh kit-teh! That CRUNCH of the super cold snow. And that dawn - thank you!!!!!
Great, new video. Love it, Merry Christmas from Texas to you, and to your many followers.
It's absolutely beautiful, but rough terrain. Thank you for showing us everything that you carry on your hunting trips. That was thorough and helpful. (Arielle, the speed demon on the snow mobile) We were laughing so hard because Eric tossed in that you go so fast that you tip and break the windshield. Be safe, you two!!! God bless! ❤
The amount of endurance ye have is amazing. Thanks for sharing
Wow you two are unbelievable.great vid
I miss the dogs😢
I know Bo passed months ago ... what happened to Bandit??
Bandit passed away as well
Me too. Ode to Bo and Bandit.❤❤
@@pamelaanhorn6804Same. He passed not too long ago. Pepper is the only one left.
@@Tune842wait what when?
I’m always looking forward to your videos! This one was really educational. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us!
You two are so brave, organized and adventurous. Very unique. This was a very exciting video.
Honestly I felt the cold on my face while watching this video. The adventures you go out on are incredible. Good for the two of you. Thanks for sharing. 💖💖🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
OBSERVATION.....And on the 7th day, God made Eric and Arielle and gave them Alaska.
I admire the care and thought you put into your trips for safety as much as adventure! The scenery is stunning, and you do such a great job of sharing it with your viewers!
Thumbs up for a colab crossover with the outdoor boys and truck house life!
The sun rise amazing, big hug 🤗 ❤
Merry Christmas Arielle & Eric!🎄& a blessed New Year 2025
Thanks for a wonderful year filled with wonderful posts from you two!! ♥️🎉🎄😘
I always think “How in the world do they ever find their way back to their truck?!!!” (I miss the pups.. but I’m happy for them that they, at their older ages, aren’t having to travel in the cold any longer😔)
They were most definitely very loved! ❤
I wondered the same thing about getting back to their truck.
A little scare now and again helps us reestablish boundaries. Glad you're safe.
I absolutely love your videos and always waiting with bated breath for the next one. I must say Eric in this video I was quite shocked to hear you order your coffee without a single please or thank you.
The scenery is amazing .Pepper is adorable Thanks for sharing your adventure.
You two have made a great impression on me. Very hard working and determined make it no matter what. Great work
wow, perfect timing. I just sat down with a fresh cup of hot coffee, and now I get to enjoy 40 min. with my favorite couple. )
Another awesome but cold adventure! Loved every minute! Thanks for sharing! Happy Holidays! Stay Warm! ❤
What an amazing couple of trips. Thanks for taking us with you.
Wow, I'm cold just watching you both. Impressed that you can function in the Alaska weather. Happy holidays and have fun.
Awesome adventure. Thanks for letting us enjoy your life in Alaska!
A little tip for coming down a steep hill on a snowmachine. Use a little throttle, that'll keep the belt and clutch engaged instead of acting as in neutral. Not too much, short bursts of throttle for the clutch to start grabbing the belt, that'll slow the machine down instead of just the brake which will result in a skid. Hope that helps!
Great vlog & thanks for sharing! Happy holidays & many blessings to all🤗🇨🇦
Love getting to see Peppi! Shes so beautiful, you clearly take good care of her ❤ Im excited for this adventure- its been unseasonably warm in my new home in NYC so Im a bit jealous of the cold. Love getting to watch you explore!
Awesome video. I am looking so forward to your videos these days. Gets the stress of life off watching😊
You've got everything but the kitchen sink, AND a first aid kit!
Really surprised you don't carry one!
Thanks for the new video this Tuesday!! And hunting up in the mountains is always the best stay warm and cozy this evening 🔥🔥❄️❄️⛄️🌲👣🌲
I suggest some butler creek flip up scope covers. Work in all temps and great way to keep your glass clean!
Thank you for another wonderful trip and going through your backpacks with us and show me all the safety stuff you have that cabin you came around fully fully equipped. That’s amazing. Hope you can stay there one night in the future. Thanks again from Dennis sadly from California.
Arielle & Eric Thanks for sharing another great video. Eric I think you should get Arielle some training wheels for her snow machine. The amount of times she lays it on its side.😂
YOU GUYS ROCK!❤❤
Wow... gorgeous views. Thanks for sharing, I am watching from Seattle, Washington. Looking forward to more winter adventures 💜
That was a beautiful sunrise.
Graphite grease is the best on weapons in climates like that. In the military we use it during winter/arctic operations.
At negative 40 I'm right beside the wood stove in the cabin waiting for the caribou to come to me.. or not.. You guys are tough !
Nice trip I’m glad to see Eric. You’re all prepared so you won’t get stranded. The cabin in the last scene. Looks like somebody lives there.
What a gorgous view. I am rooting for you guys to get a carabao and a moose that would be so awesome!!. I hope you are both doing well this winter. Keep those wonderful videos going. Your friend in Oregon ,JoNi
You too have had an amazing 2024, extremely productive as well. All the hard work of building the new garden the amazing shop and seed room. Hopefully 2025 will a time for a little more fun and travel adventures. Thank you for a fabulous year of adventure and learning. ❤
You are so amazing! Really take advantage of the winter recreation ! Brrrrr is all I can say! Love the content ! So interesting!💕🇺🇸💕
Arielle likes to live on the edge with her snowmobile. lol. You guys are very much prepared for the cold weather trip with all these equipment and survival kits. Garmin GPS is a great thing to have especially for what you are doing. Thanks for sharing the video.
Fascinating gear review, thanks for sharing
What an exciting adventure. I love your videos.
Hello guys from NC....tks for video. Much love to you both......
well done my darlings... looks that is a wonderful cabin you've found there... great to see you're doing your homework before heading out... tech eric logistics ariel... perhaps we'll all get to see you out there again if that is possible... yeah i hope so too... good times and a happy new year... much love xxc
Another great adventure😊thank you for taking us with you. Merry Christmas 😊
When Eric said 'If I could shoot that thing, I would be driving over there right now' , I thought he said 'If I could shoot that thing, I would be driving HOME right now'......made me laugh, and I thought that you guys are efficient, but that are you that efficient!!! Loved the video, and sending Christmas wishes from Australia xxxx
Nice to see y'all out doing some more hunting in the mountains and
exploring the beautiful wilderness and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas take care Arielle and Eric thanks.🏔️🇺🇲🎄
Love the bug out bag. I have several in different vehicles and the rzr. They come in handy. Love watching the videos. 👍🏼💪🏼
Love miss kitty... I feed Unloved stray cats. I put down straw on my covered back porch..❤️ Again merry christmas happy new year.
Thank you For keeping The cats safe and warm ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I absolutely love how you explore and make use of the PUC's you should do a pin board for us and do some comparisons etc!!
I can’t believe how cold I’m getting watching you, and the room I’m in is 74 degrees. Crazy.
WOW hello & what a cool video. I hope you get a Moose on this hunting trip. Can not wait to see your next video.
What a nice cabin there at the end. A lot better than most of the ones you've stayed in.
In your survival gear, I would add a small tarp (8' X 8" or 10'X 10') to protect you from wind if your are stuck for a long period.
What a nice video. As i have come to expect from you both. Love it.
Why thank you 😊
Really like seeing the gear you use and the thought process you guys use in your choices. As a 3yr rookie alaskan whos doing it solo I learn a lot from watching you guys and it really helps. Merry xmas happy new year from chugiak
Merry Christmas!!
❤ it must be wonderful to park your vehicle in a warm garage and just be able to get out and go instead of warm the car up
Great video guys, thanks for sharing your hunting trips with us, the views are gorgious 🤩 take care. Cheers from Whitehorse Yukon 🥂
You might think about a little table that you could flip up and down to create a space to cook on in the back. Another great video once again (you spoil us). Hope you enjoy the holiday season and hope you get a nice 🦌!
Another great video!!!!!!!!! Caribou hunting is ruff until they are there and then it's fast and fantastic! If I remember right the 1st time you went up to the new cabin.... Your home now didn't you have Caribou tracks in the snow there. Shoot one of those and take all the leg work out of it. If it was only that simple huh. There would be no room in the freezer anyway, it would be full to the brim with smoked Salmon. That dip you made last episode I've thought of it a few times. Hey you two have a wonderful holiday!!
Wish you would of shown more of that wood stove in the cabin.
Best of luck with your hunt.
I hope you have a first aid kit also. Otherwise, you are certainly prepared for anything! I have never been on a snowmobile. It looks like so much fun!
I’m hoping you get that perfect shot that fills the freezer! ❤
I greatly appreciate seeing the inside of your emergency gear and will share it with our 21 year old who is doing more adventuring without us!
Plus the importance of the MAPS!
And our cyclists, hikers, and travelers have used InReach and Zoleo - and having things like that means that my 88 year old hiking dad feel better going out on his own, which is important to him. And we feel better about it too.
Great video! I’m glad you got the inreach!
Eric...lichen is pronounced like-in. Love the show guys.
A "Like-In" was a 60s gathering of young people flirting with the hippie lifestyle who weren't ready yet for the full blown Love-Ins
Cladonia rangiferina or reindeer lichen,
people who read a lot sometimes have issues pronouncing words correctly .@@ByronWerner-qw5sh
Thank you once more! ❣
Merry Christmas from warm Arizona ❄️🎄
Great video. The moss on the hill is liken
I close the ends of the bungee cord hooks (small ends) in a vise and shrink tube the assembly - not cuts or scratches and they do not come loose from the bungee cord itself. Bob in Nevada
Wow I thought you were going to stay there! Must have been a long trip back. Funny those trees look so small an yet they are probably very old.
Yes it was indeed 🙂 we are lucky we made it there, I thought we were off course the whole time. I always think that about the trees and try to count rings if we have to cut one down.
Great in depth video shoing off your equipment! Can you show your winter clothing set up please !
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Oh my this weather really looks really cold miss the dogs but they would be cold. Good luck with hunting.
Another great video.
Love your adventures
Those In Reaches are brilliant..used all over the out back in Australia..
That little cabin was sic...😂 I swear the trail going into it was cut in by Tom from Mountain Men...😂😅 Love ya'll ❤️ Thanks for sharing another great adventure! The meals, not so..😊
That is freaking nuts.
Andddd, the Hunt is on. 🎉
You guys are amazing
Watching from Sydney, AU. Love the videos espcially when your gardening, chopping wood and lighting fires.
God Bless and Merry Christmas!
