    i cant be the only one that rewatches this alaska/yukon series. This channel was the one thing that got me into overlanding/offroading right after getting my 2013 tacoma brand new. It is and will always be my favorite series of theirs.

      They visited, I moved there!! Much better and seriously adventurous. Changed my life forever. Clay can’t say that;( Some people’s “passions” run deeper than others!

    I really enjoyed it. No manufactured drama, no excessive acting for the camera, good videography, nice scenery. Nice to see wives participating in the adventure. I also appreciated that no one feels the need to have a potty mouth in order to be "tough" or "cool"...so far it's a video I could sit down and watch with my adventure-interested mom. I hope that continues in subsequent episodes. Nice work!

      I'll second that. Gives an air of intelligence that is lacking in the 6th grade potty mouth types.

    This is what you call life, outdoors adventure.

    My god. This is EXACTLY the kind of show I've been looking for. I bet these guys get a good feeling from outdoor adventures like I do.

    The General AT2 tire proved to be the perfect type of tire for this trip. We ran just over 9,000 miles on this trip. Much of it is highway or some sort of improved road. Mud tires would have been nice for those few times but overall this tire was more than adequate.

  • @jongeddes09

    This is the format and content I really enjoy. I go back and binge watch the original few adventures from time to time. Today is one of those days.

    Wow. Just, wow. I would give anything in this world to be able to do what you group of friends were able to do. The vehicles, the freedom, the wilderness and the unknown. I have wanted to do something similar since I was a child. I am truly envious and absolutely thankful to be able to live your adventures through these short videos. Thank you all for this.

  • @wildnaturebeauty
    @wildnaturebeauty 10 років тому +10

    No sarcasm, but for me it's funny to see such preparation and equipment tune up. We go to Yukon every year with 2-3k $ vehicle, bad tires and leaking boat but it is always great adventure [many times being on the edge] and we always somehow manage it to come back. having such equipment for me would be like sleeping in hotel Hilton. haha :] good luck on your travel guys!

    • @milesb4231
      @milesb4231 5 років тому +1

      You, my friend, know how to adventure. Taking tons of gear seems like over preparation but I guess training is training and a lot of overlanders really just want to pack up and go quickly.

    • @lunamaria1048

      My husband and I went overlanding from Vancouver to Anchorage Alaska and back in a stock 4Runner, and we did absolutely amazing lol

    I drove L.A. to Alaska 7 times, mostly before they paved the Alcan. Also drove the Cassiar. You can drive ANYTHING up there providing that it is in reasonable shape. You can even drive the Dalton to Prudhoe Bay. It's no particular challenge. If you choose to off-road, it's no different than Montana or Colorado. If you just want transportation and easy dirt roads, the Subaru is the best. If you want to haul gear, you're better off with independent front suspension on a heavier vehicle. Keep the length down and carry a winch that you can place front or back,, or on a tree.

    While it is said the destination is the purpose, the adventure is getting there. And it's not suffering though mishaps. But its struggle to make it a memory. I do indeed enjoy your productions.

    I've never adventured more than day trips. Though I did take trips so far out that the roads were almost gone and only good nav skills got me there and back. Was up in Alaska, south east of Fairbanks. I drove out to old gold mine claims and abandoned cabins. Nothing like the out back of Alaska. Unfortunately, my trecking days are all but gone. Time marches on for us all. I will live again through you guys. Sounds a little sick but when you can't walks very far without braces, well, there it is. I gotta live with it. Love and piece guys. Love the fact that the ladies are into it as well. Makes the trip that much more special.

    • @rogue109
      @rogue109 10 років тому +8

      david coan So it's not longer an adventure because the gear was used somewhere else first? I once used a toilet in Irapuato Mexico that was definitely used by others, yet it was an adventure in sights and smells to last a lifetime to me. It's not about the toilet, its about how and where you use it that you remember.

    My husband and I just returned from overland touring from Vancouver British Columbia to Anchorage Alaska and back... It was my first time and the adventure of a lifetime!... We managed in a stock 4Runner that only had a snorkel as a physical mod, a roof top tent and our fridge, cook top and supplies and tools, and a 2 year old tablet for navigation.. No fancy high tech stuff except our battery set up.. Not knocking your setup, but it seems overkill lol.. Great show though i'm definitely subscribing

    Did extensive surveying in the Hanksville , Moab area late 70's for father in laws mining it's a wonderful area I had a GMC Blazer up fitted with skid plates, suspension everything you could imagine. back then there were no cells, gps or any of the modern tools we use today. Spent many nites in factory butte canyons and the Moab dwellings. Enjoy your travel videos. Currently preparing for a sailboat trip around the world several years out from that. Thanks for sharing your trip.

I know building sponsors isn't easy, but after enough work on my truck, enough events and blogs, I hope to be able t o get something going.

      I've watched several of their videos as well as other overland videos. My only experience is FTXs in the Army, but these guys look like they're carrying too much and the vehicles look overloaded and top heavy.

I stumbled upon you guys by accident and watched the 12 Alaska Yukon episodes back to back. This is now on my bucket list. To ship my 80 series there and do that trip is definitely something I think I need to do. keep up the good work. I saw your trucks at SEMA the last two years and was hoping to run in to some of you but that was not to be. Maybe at overland expo next year. Cheers
