    Southeast Alaska is so beautiful, there's no other place like it. I was lucky enough to spend time in Ketchikan when I was a child, I would love to return. Beautiful documentary, very emotional ♡

    And now i know the life cycle of salmon, birth on the upstream forest river, migration to the sea and going back to the place where their were born and end their life for nature.. What an inspiring video.. ❤❤

    Hands down the most beautiful documentary I have ever watched. Thanks to all for their great work a contribution. I think we need more documentaries like these to educate people how important it is to sustain the natural ecological system rather that meddling with nature
    I salute all the people who are working in Southeast Alaska to maintain this ecosystem and ensure it stays healthy.One of the most satisfying jobs a person could ask for.

      We are all connected. I missed so much in my life until this truth.
      I cried as a child knowing the salmon, eagles and so many other things would be extinct, but I never knew why I cried.
      I've always wanted to go to Alaska for different reasons, but today I just want to go to Alaska to breathe, feel, see all there is to just be.

    I can't wait to see Disney make a heart wrenching Salmon fish movie like Finding Nemo.
    Their longing to return back to the same place where they were born and make it their final resting place ,the struggles they face and the predators they encounter along the way ,the struggles to jump over the high cliff,their fasting for a year,the sacrifice of their life after spawning just to feed the wildlife or contribute nutrients to the eco system that birth them is just one of the most inspiring,amazing and out of this world.
    I think Salmon Fish are the most intelligent fish I've ever known.
    I seriously hope Disney will make a hearth warming and emotional movie of a "Salmon Journey back home"
    I would love to watch it

    It’s amazing that 94% of the streams and rivers are intact so they are really working on the last 6% for the salmon.
    Amazing video I’m an Alaskan native and actually just caught three silver salmon tonight for my mom. Love seeing the love for these fish.

      Yet if you watch this carefully you’ll see how much of the Tongass has been systematically stripped of its timber at the cost of the US tax payer to keep less than 100 people in paid employment via a couple of mills. While the rest of the raw timber gets shipped off to China.

    22:00 min in..when the old folks are showing how it's done...and when Joel folded open the dried salmon like a book, so cool. Great video all the way around! Being from the Seattle area I love this stuff.👍❤

      Yes! I could taste the sockeye when he opened. I could see the history and read the story.
      I heard everything about the salmon, bear, eagles, ocean and river along with the people who care for them. I heard it all through my eyes. This, is amazing.

    . . . I had to stop and comment on this one young man as he was filled with not only emotions but the realization that most do not have and that is that we must take care of our resources for we want our future generations to not only enjoy that which we now have and runs in our veins as it is part of us for to be also part of them and theirs for generations to come for to negate this is to negate that which gives us life and a reason of a livelihood and that which without words expressed is very palpable and I felt it to the core of what he was feeling and just on that my respects to him and his wife and family all of them . ! !

    @Drew791 4 роки тому +27

    You guys have done an amazing job on this film. Each shot is visually striking and beautiful. These could easily be National Geographic quality. And really nice job on showing the overall relationship these salmon have to the local Alaskan economy and wellbeing of its citizens, and how important the salmon are to the ecosystems of the largest temperate intact rainforest (a fact I did not know before this doc).
    The only thing I wish is that narration was recorded a bit better. She has a nice calm voice, but it seems that the recording itself is slightly muffled, or the mic isn't quite angled correctly, or the mixing is off. Other than that, huge thumbs up!

    If you want to learn how to prepare, store, dry, and 101 uses of salmon bones, spend some time with the Tlingit.
    Tip: The first thing you need to figure out is Tlingit time. They don't cram things into an organizer. Kind of like island time. Set aside a few days, let them be concerned about the clock, and they'll show you the best vacation you've ever had.
