Im disabled and watch a lot of outdoors videos on UA-cam including yours and Brooks, Partially to live vicariously and partially to motivate myself. Of all the videos i have seem over the last few years, this is by far the most awesome. This is my dream. Thank you.
@@b-radfrommalibu2702 it's good for people to live their dreams no matter what age. I have a dream of taking an old boat I have that needs alot of work down to the Gulf Of Mexico. It's 490 miles down river from me, takes about 4 or 5 days one way. Would be an adventure. Great thing about my boat is that it's aluminum and light at 24 feet it's only about 900 pounds and trailerable. So My Uncle said he would drag my trailer down to Mobile or Gulf Shores and pick up me and the boat if I would like. But 10 days on the water doesn't sound so bad. Another good thing I have a four stroke outboard for it so good fuel mileage. Unlike the 2 stroke on it now.
First of all I have to say big thanks to you. I found this video about two weeks ago. Incredibly, I found myself 20 years ago in this video. I am the Japanese with black hair in the past two minutes. I was there exactly!! It’s my first solo adventure that kayaking Yukon. I could clearly remember my precious memories in this video. I appreciate you made this video. And thank you so much for Neil and your family. I had good sleep on raft cabin at that time. One more appreciate to you guys from Japan.
At the end of your documentary I was wishing that I had grown up in Alaska. What a wonderful wonderful thing rolling down the river on a raft. With your voice, you should be speaking and doing documentaries all the time. Thoroughly enjoyed thanks!
Dear Dave and Brooke, I have watched this raft trip several times and each experience is so entertaining and enriching. I was 77 on 12/27/21 and am still very spiritually vibrant. However, severe orthroartritis handicaps me such that my former normal adventures are mostly verboten. Thus, I very much vicariously enjoy every video you both produce. Just 10 years ago I was able to engage in all the exhiIariating activities I witness you doing. I ask not for any pity but joy that I so enjoy your wonderful visual productions. Thank and bless you and your wonderful son and daughter so much for the gifts you have given me. Blessings, Larry ductions. I cariously
This is a great story to watch on a Saturday morning while the house is quiet and the family is still asleep. It makes me dream of a river far away that I hope to see one day. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Your story telling is captivating. The memories shared are so much appreciated. Wish I were 21 and could start over, as this would be my dream. Thank you again for a glimpse of an extraordinary time.
What an amazing story. It is so refreshing to see great people doing great things, all the while making great memories. I can speak for all of us here in UA-cam land when I say - we wish we were there with you all. Thank you, Dave. You are an exemplary narrator/story teller.
Dave, this was probably my favorite video you’ve ever posted on your channel. Those memories you created with your family and friends will last a lifetime. Life at its best my friend. ❤️✌️😎
You have a gift for storytelling! Love your videos and your lovely girl in the woods videos! You are my favorite you tubers! ❤️ So very sorry to hear of Brookes brother passing. Prayers for you all. 🙏🏻 I am a fellow Michigander. Looking forward to your trip back to the UP property. There’s healing in the Forest. May God bless you and comfort you all.
What an awesome adventure you've had. I have often yearned for an adventure such as this so I throughly enjoyed watching this 👍 thanks so much for sharing ❤
Got a raft built now, waiting at the bridge. Seeing this video again tells me to "throw lines" (Joe) and head down river. Great job Dave! Missing you guys. B great to have you along again!
Sept 26 2020.... Just had this in my recommended videos. Love the adventure and the story. This is what is missing in our society today. Adventure and real connection to our natural world and each other. Great story. God Bless
I really loved the tv series from NG, and always wished for a season 2 to come out. This video was an awesome behind the scenes recap. Thanks Dave, what a trip. You are a great story teller. Cheers!
Thank you for having me along...what a wonderful time...and thank you for inspiring me to revive my own dream...of finishing my schoolie bus and seeing beautiful Alaska with my grand daughters along ... many more happy memories for you ahead...loved the adventure.
Dave I hadn't yet watched this and I'm glad I did absolutely loved it..Now thats living Life. Gald Scotty got to realize his dream wish I could have met him what a guy. What a memory for the whole family. Stay free my man ✌
Dave, you had my heart swelling through this entire video. Great job with your story and all the beautiful photographs. I’ve been following Brooke for almost a year now, so happy I found you two. Lots of love from southeastern North Carolina
Hi Dave, My name is Judy and I'm from Wisconsin, USA. I just finished watching your video about men's mental problems. Wonderful video!! My husband served for a short time in Vietnam, just long enough to get prostate cancer from exposure to Agent Orange, PTSD, depression and anxiety☹️ This video is wonderful too. I love the pictures of your children when they were young. You and Brooke have given them a great adventurous life they'll always remember!!! Love you guys!!!🥰😍❤️🤗🤗
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this! I feel like I've had no adventures in my life worth talking about lol. But maybe some day! What an awesome experience! And great story telling Dave. Just an awesome job!
It's been awesome following you and Brooke over the last few years, and now Mick as he starts his channel. Going back through your videos and seeing baby Mick makes me laugh. Kid had one rad childhood. More adventure on that rafting trip than most adults have in a lifetime I'd bet.
Dave, I truly enjoyed watching and listening to your narration. I could almost feel like I was there with y’all. You should consider being a narrator for books on tapes about Alaska adventures.
What an adventure! Good job. Thank you for a memorable, one-of-a-kind lifestyle adventure I hadn’t even imaged. You and Brooke are a great team, so much fun to watch. Neil (sp?) has to be a true pioneer: digging out Mammoth tusks in the Boneyard? Epic!!!!!
With your great still photos and your voice over, this is much better then a movie show. You and your family are doing a great service. I felt like I was right there with you. Keep up the great work.
What an amazing story!! You all looked like you had a wonderful time. It put a smile on my face, and hopes for a better tomorrow. Thank you for sharing. Chris from Massachusetts.
Great story, what a fantastic way to spend time building rafts living in tents floating down the YUKON it's a memory that will stay with you guys forever I felt that I was there with you thank you for sharing this story, you people would have made a bond between you that will last a lifetime God bless you all.
I can't think of the last slideshow-only video I watched on youtube entirely through. A true testament to your story-telling abilities, an ability that is somewhat lost even with the best videos these days. Great work!
I'm so thankfull for you and Brooke sharing amazing wonderfull stuff , you guys are so generous . thanks a million . J'ai le sourire fendu d'une oreille à l'autre et le coeur léger chaque fois que je vous suit MERCI !
Before my husband passed we were so fortune to be blessed. With the northern lights which I never since seen them, but my memories I hold very close and dear. What a voyage you all had as a family.
What a Great Trip you all had. God gave you all some beautiful sunsets My wife and I love watching you and Brookes UA-cam channels thank you Craiig and Marie Rainier Oregon
You know, I absolutely love the voice over I love all the pictures and how you put them together. Damn, this was just as great as a perfect video. And you have the perfect voice for this. You could literally be a professional narrator. This was rocksolid. And I absolutely loved being able to go along this journey with you guys. And seeing you with your wife and your kids and all these wonderful friends this was just an amazing adventure. Thank you for sharing and you absolutely have beautiful kids. You have a beautiful wife, beautiful children and you are a handsome individual yourself. You’ve worked hard but God surely has blessed you guys as well.👊💖
What a great Story! Just sitting in Front of my Computer, watching and listening to your Story! Thank you very much for sharing! I guess I found some inspiring Ideas for my big Canada Trip in 2-3 Years!
Well, it´s a great Story, it´s nice and long but you´ve got some other really good Videos, that first Cabin build, the one about your Alone Axe, But overall this one is your masterpice so far. It´s your Style, the Composition, your Voice that makes them all great!
I remember watching the show when it originally aired, thinking to myself, What a group of characters. Very much enjoyed your story of the Yukon River Run Days... TFS
Just one more glimpse of life well lived,,, that so much of the human race has rejected for a plastic -coated life of emptiness. The land and all its beauty for those with eyes to see,, and contentment so easily found. Thanks so much,,you Bushradicals,, for sharing it all with us.
Awesome video! What a great adventure...great food...great company...and beautiful kids to keep y'all feeling young! I know I will watch this again. Thank you
Guys this was an awesome video. I really enjoy and appreciate these story vids that you put up. Some of my favorite content you guys put up. It is my goal and dream to move to Alaska and live. You truly motivate and inspire me to get it done and each time I see one of your Alaska vids it only confirms my goals. Thanks as always.
Dave, I have to say that you and your family have had an exceptional life through the years! The adventures that you and Brooke have had are going to be an awesome biography someday. Or, maybe just killer stories to tell the grandkids while your setting around the campfire, Love it!

Dave, I’m a 76 year old lady sitting here thinking “I want to do this”. God has blessed you greatly.
Agree! I am 70!
Love the way you narrate.Brook send me a pie! What a great adventure!
I think you ladies should do it. I see it's been a year so I hope you already have.

Very much enjoyed your story of the Yukon River Run Days... TFS
like Paul Harvey used to say....................and now you know...........the rest of the story.
