  • The second half of the Alaska Highway took us through the Yukon and WOW, what a magical place!
    The Yukon is one of Canada’s three territories and is known for the Klondike Gold Rush and its immense wilderness and wildlife. We spent 3.5 days driving through the Yukon and were constantly in awe by the sheer beauty of the landscapes around us.

    Seriously, you guys have the best travel vlogs on UA-cam! They're both entertaining and informative. I particularly respect the fact that that you do thorough research on every location you visit. I'm sure the locals with whom you come into contact appreciate that also. Compared to the supernatural beauty if BC, the Alberta Rockies and the big cities of Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver, the Yukon is often overlooked and underappreciated, even by most Canadians. Thank you for providing such a comprehensive perspective on this magnificent part of our great nation. Oh, and Kona is just as cute as a button! 🐕

    SO HAPPY you got to experience some indigenous culture while you were there. Canada is filled with different indigenous cultures, traditions, languages, bands, the list goes on. And learning it directly from an indigenous person or elder, is such an incredible experience that I wish more folks had the opportunity to do. Its imperative to promoting and preserving their culture for decades to come after years of losing so much of it through assimilation (including supporting them through compensation is such an incredible thing to do - so thank you for that :)). So happy to see that you enjoyed it and shared it on your channel, thank you!!

    A+K - Your videos are the highlight of our week. We love everything about you guys and you bring us so much inspiration in our own adventures. The way you share your videos makes us feel like we are friends. Thanks for sharing your travels and experiences. We truly feel like it has made our lives better! A couple of things:
    1. Your green chili looks amazing! Would you be willing to share the recipe?
    2. Adam- we love the pillowy food descriptions! It makes us smile every time.

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  Рік тому +1

      Your comment means a lot to us! That really makes us feel good so thank you for that!
      1. The green chili pork recipe couldn't be easier...I buy a port shoulder/butt (2-3 lbs because we have the smallest InstantPot) and a large jar of green salsa. Dice up the pork into 1 inch-ish chunks and dump the salsa in and mix it around. I usually do 30-35 minutes, but look up the cooking time for your size InstantPot and how much meat you put in there. Then, at the end sometimes I like to crisp it up in a hot skillet
      2. Haha I probably need to lay off "pillow-y" for a bit! 😂 but it's fun anyway!

That couple was so gracious and it looked like Harold spent a lot of time with you. Also MAJOR PROPS to Adam for knowing how to fix his instrument cluster. I wouldn't have had a clue. From converting your sprinter to doing repairs, Adam is the man.

Seriously, I'd watch a full-length film of your Journey to Alaska travel highlights on a big screen any day! The First Nations focus you've honored is outstanding. Maybe you should also add a "pillow-y" and "windshield chip" counter to your tracking. Glad I'm not the only one who also sees a rock and thinks it's an animal... :) Loved that unexpected sand dunes sight, too. Hoping to see lots of fireweed in your future films - hope you've tried some fireweed honey by now! Finally, what would you do for a Klondike Bar?

      A "Teaser" ??? Meaning Alaska is "that much better" than the Yukon ??? Well, it is bigger, but not if you include the western North West Territories (NWT) of Canada to the Mackenzie River, largest in the country, which runs south to north and drains into the Arctic Ocean. The western N.W.T. is part of the same landscape and climate of Alaska and the Yukon. One of the social problems of this region, which I experienced when I travelled this region to your 49th state in 2008, was the haughtiness and even snottiness of SOME citizens of the USA, who believe Canada is a 10 percent version of the USA. Well, we have 10 percent of your population, most of it in the south because if you go NORTH of Dawson Creek, British Columbia (Mile Zero of this road at latitude 55 degrees) ANYTIME from October to May, it will be below freezing during the day, and there may be snow on the ground in some form or another, and plenty of it in mid-winter, with temperatures so cold in winter the average southern American will NOT BELIEVE IT or how ANYONE COULD SURVIVE IT, even for 5 minutes. Canada has the same quality of life and the same Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as the USA on a per-capita basis, it shocks many Americans that Canada is consistently the 8th to10th richest nation in the entire World OVERALL for GDP out of 200+ nations, and along with Australia with an even smaller population and which places about 12th to 14th, Canada and Australia are consistently the only 2 nations in the top 15 of the World's GDP countries with a population BELOW 50 million people (Canada 37 million people / Australia 26 million people / USA 330 million people). And I hope you will leave your comment on this thread and my comment too, because it needs to be said right here at the top of the page, I left Alaska with something of a "bad taste in my mouth" after a 2 week trip there due to the attitudes of SOME Americans there, one of the first things the American bus driver told me when we crossed into Alaska going from Whitehorse to Fairbanks was that "Canadian jokes will NOT be allowed on the bus"............ when I said I wanted to "hear them all" he replied............... NO, you don't want to hear them all, some are really, really BAD.................

    Loved that sign post forest. Reminds me of when Kara and Nate visited the Hill of Crosses in Lithuania and were like 'if you come, find out cross' - now people will be doing it in Canada for you guys! Such a shame that the SS Klondike was closed for renovations during your visit as I imagine it would have been awesome to get a nosey around the inside, but the Rib and Salmon restaurant seemed to make up for it, the setting looked amazing, as did the food, and the other customers cheering you on was so cool - cherry on top of the cake was when you said they were government officials! 🙌🤣 Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the Long Ago Peoples Place and hearing about the way of life and history. The animal traps were amazing and listening to your de-brief after the visit, it sound like you guys got so much out of it too!

      The Sign Post Forest was such a neat spot to stop. Yes it reminded me of the Hill of Crosses too now that I think about it. We hope to get some photos from people with our sign. That would be the coolest! Seeing the SS Klondike would've been really neat. We'll have to go back! The food definitely made up for it though! It was delectable! It was so funny when that large group of government officials came in haha
      And the Long Ago Peoples Place was so amazing. We're thankful they gave us that tour after showing up unannounced! We really did get a lot out of that experience. We're very interested in learning about that topic and to learn first hand can't be beat!

      Throughout the 1970's, 1980's, 1990's, it was very popular for retired Americans, the so-called "Greatest Generation" in your country (in some ways) to take a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Alaska from the lower 48 to the "Last Frontier" which is Alaska's nickname. In summer, there was an almost steady stream of Recreational Vehicles from the USA going through British Columbia, Alberta, and the Yukon with retired American couples making their trip to your 49th state. The Watson Lake sign forest is one of their legacies, most of the signs there were left from that era, although of course it started with the original highway builders in 1942, and with the recent interest in adventure travel around the World in the new millenium, including more people from Europe and Asia, many more signs have been added, some with hometowns across oceans to the far ends of the earth.

      It is so incredibly gorgeous in that area. It's a bummer that many people who drive through the Yukon don't stop to experience it. I'm thankful we did and can't wait to see more one day.

Every time I watch this movie I think of you two, I mean, obviously you do travel videos and show us all the places and foods, but at the same time, you make me feel… I don’t know how to explain it, feel the crispy air, feel the crushing waves, feel closer to the jaw dropping sceneries I have never been. 🥰🥰🥰

    The stark, raw beauty of the Yukon is so breathtaking. The Long Ago People’s Place would have to be at the very top for me because of their culture(s) that have lasted to this very day. Their way of life meshes so perfectly with nature and the ruggedness of their land, and their respect and love for all living things is exemplary. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us.

      @AdventuresofAplusK  Рік тому +1

      We are so thankful we got that opportunity to learn from and share the First Nations experience!
      I don't think it wiggled lose because it has a mechanism that you have to release and then it can be removed. When we had it looked at in January there was some corrosion back there and they replaced the part that had corrosion. Hopefully it's not making a comeback!
