We went to Alaska in 2018. We drove our truck camper. Even though we were driving the speed limit and maybe five over, the RVs that passed us, some flying, and no exaggeration. you could actually see their tires come off the ground. We expected to see them pulled over up ahead with RV parts all over the road but never did.

Hello to all four of you! I remember when we left Mackinaw, arrived in Texas, were on our first trip to Austin, and had a rock thrown into the windshield. We drove around until we got it fixed…just in time to drive home and have another one hit my side of the windshield. Two cracks in one day. It looks easy to fix but we let the auto places fix it. It looks really beautiful up there.
I usually let auto places do their thing but we literally just replaced the windshield in Idaho and I don't want to keep hitting my insurance company up for windshield repairs. 😂 -J
@@OpenRoading I get that. They gave us the option of replacement and we said no for now for the same reason. We paid for the first one and then had insurance do the second one for the same reason. Two in one day was frustrating.
Hi, Victoria & Craig put out a comment that you were the other couple traveling with them while going to Alaska. Hope you enjoy your trip even though there are changes. My wife and I made the trip in January 1982 on our way to Anchorage. Was the trip of a life time and one that we will remember for ever. Sandy & John here in D'Iberville Mississippi.
Thanks for stopping by! I’m guessing you’ve gotten a good chuckle out of how “bad” the roads are since when you did it they were probably far far worse! -J
@@OpenRoading definitely a quick fix and have used and never had an issue. I just jumped out of the truck and had polish in rv and a few seconds and we were done !
You guys are so awesome. I bet your friends had a little chat with the border patrol officer before you got there? :D I find that they are generally very kind hearted and love a good ruse. I love how you just seem to roll with the punches as things come along. Life will always throw challenges your way - too many people just throw in the towel and quit, but then they just miss out on all the good stuff that's yet to come. So happy that you're finally in Alaska and you're making your dreams come true. Rooting for you guys and so thankful you are sharing your lives with us.
we went in 1980,and i mean there was a event every day on the road,some really crazy ,some times scarey,we were 30 then ,70 now and man do we have some tales to tale,
The widow repair turned out great! We hope Trinity is feeling better! We also hope that preview for next week is only a Wild Rv Life prank on you guys😮! Can't wait to find out! 😀
Congrats! Another awesome video. Best shot was Trinity sitting in the backseat at the start of Day 3 with a look of “How long are you all going to talk…we need to get to Alaska!” Next best was the drone footage of the lake! Wow!!
It's very easy to install an extenda stay fitting for your RV. This allows you to leave your trailer parked and take a spare tank in to get filled. We park for 5 months in the desert and never fill our onboard tanks. We leave them full and carry a spare 9 gallon tank.
I made my first trip on the road in 1969. It was dirt at the time. Two of us drove from Boise to Anchorage in 72 hours in a brand new pickup.I've made many trips since then, the road keeps improving.
Great video! That was a huge wolf!! You guys really got us hooked with the ending 🤣 Kudos. Some weird comments this week though🤷🏼♀️ Love your positivity and kindness. I’m so happy you made it and appreciate you taking me along. ‘See ya’ next week!!
Your video courageously depicts the challenges encountered along the Alaska Highway, despite warnings. The resilience and adventurous spirit shown in navigating these obstacles highlight the journey's true essence, making it a captivating and inspiring experience. And I am Floating Village Life
Still enjoying your travels, especially your detailed info on the highway conditions, etc.I am making my Alaska journey vicariously with you folks. What a great cliff-hanger!
Most people know the town of Gander Newfoundland that took most of the Air Traffic headed from Europe to the U.S. during 9/11, ,but most people don't know that Whitehorse took the Asia to Alaska on 9/11. There were a couple of 747 that landed and being a smaller regional airport, it wasn't designed for such large planes and probably the only since that have landed there.
Your sign is in great company....with the UNC sign, gotta love the Tarheels! Poor Trinity! We try to keep the truck a little cooler for our pup, he doesn't seem as likely to get sick with it cool.
I feel your pain over the long travel days and am really enjoying these videos. Love how you and Victoria and Craig give and take with each other and stay positive through it all. Maybe someday Jim and I will make that trip with the rv. Maybe.
We had a 2005 Designer 31 RLS. Loved it and wish they hadn't quit making them. Sold it in 2020 after many tens of thousands of miles with the only issue being one time the living room slide motor locked up and had to be replaced.
Quick question! Did you have any issue with the fiberglass cracking at the front bottom corner just off the bedroom slide? I’ve been told it’s a common issue but it still bothers me a bit. Fixed it once and it re-cracked so now I just try to keep it sealed from weather. It got doest get worse but it’s annoying. 😂
@@OpenRoading yes, from the very beginning. Dealer told us they could fix it but it would crack again. I just used to keep it taped over to keep the water out.
That is tremendously high praise. I don't think you will ever see us turn to the extreme end of things like they do (zero shade! We watch all their videos - just not a direction I think we will ever go - for every video at least) - but I am so so humbled by even being compared to them. -J
We have really enjoyed your adventures getting to Alaska. I hope that you consider the Cassiar route for the return trip. There are so many places to see - Stewart & Hyder, Prince Rupert, Haida Gwaii, the Inside Passage...
Enjoyed your video while doing medical charts. Still have 40 to go but slowly making headway. Meeting up sounds great. We live in Eagle River which is a Northern suburb of Anchorage. The family and I will be traveling from 26 July until 12 Aug. Will search for your community page later to find the details if we are around
I'm a mechanic, with that being said... Do not run your truck low on fuel. The fuel helps to keep you fuel injectors cooler, lubricated, and reduces wear on them. Try and keep your fuel tank over 1/4 or more full. Another thing when fuel gets low below 1/4 it agitates the trash on the very bottom of the fuel tank causing your fuel filter to clog faster.
You are the expert on this not me. I'm fully aware of this. I have a couple questions: How does the level of fuel in my tank affect the temperature of the injectors? Is the fuel cooler the more there is in the tank? If so how much cooler? We talking 3 degrees or 30? My fuel pump has 262,000 miles on it and I'm responsible for somewhere around 130,000 of those miles. Isn't that pretty good life out of a fuel pump? I've been told over and over that this thing should have blown up and sent metal shards through my engine by now (being a 2012 F250 and all)...but it hasn't. It might tomorrow! But it hasn't yet. I personally replace my fuel filter at the recommended intervals and last fall I dropped my tank (long story that's documented in the beet harvest series) but in that process I got a good look inside my tank and if it wasn't fuel...you could have drank out of the tank. Now of course that could change with one set of bad fuel. Again - You are a mechanic and I believe that you are telling me the absolute best practice and that your information is 100% correct. I cannot say that enough. But there are many "Best practices" in life that I don't always follow. Sometimes for good reasons, sometimes because I'm stubborn. 😂 I fully admit that. How it comes across to me sometimes is that if I don't follow those best practices then I am 100% going to destroy my truck next week when I believe in reality I may be shaving 1-2K miles off the life of my fuel pump and/or truck. Much like eating the junk food instead of a vegetable today. No the Twix bar isn't going to give me a heart attack and I should eat the vegetable...but the health influencer on UA-cam is going a bit far when they tell me I'm going to die from the sugar when in reality maybe I just shaved a few minutes off my life (assuming I don't die in a car crash when my fuel pump gives out) 😉. But again, I am 100% NOT the expert (Have I said this enough? I just want to be clear for anyone reading this that I am NOT the mechanic in this conversation! lol) - and I am the one that will 100% deal with the consequences (good or bad) of the decisions I make regarding the maintenance of my truck and I DO take note and listen to the advice of actual experts like yourself even though I may not always heed it. -J
As I'm sure you learned, you can't get lost in the sign forest. About 2 blocks away from there is a nice lake we walked around when we were there for exercise. Alaska roads will get worse and your construction delays will be a real thing. But you will enjoy it. Have fun.
So far we've only hit one long delay where a road was getting washed out (somewhere around Chickaloon.) It was a pilot car situation and we ended up waiting for 2 long cycles. But the nice thing is, since the sun "doesn't set" if it delays us a bit it's not too big of a deal. -J
@@OpenRoading That is a good thing, but it will get worse. You do have the proper attitude though. Enjoy the rest of your time up there. I do enjoy your adventures.
Congratulations on working hard and making your goal! Beautiful drone shot of the rainbow. Oh my. What an interesting cliff hanger. Didn't see that coming.
My goodness. It was amazing to see both of you when you got to Alaska. What a great moment to capture, made me smile and reminded me of about half of the 2598 wedding videos I edited. I'm curious how this cliffhanger turns out.
Watson Lake store was out of a lot of essentials like milk when we were there. Apparently they said they only got deliveries about once a week at that time.
Oh wow! Yeah, we were just talking about portion sizes at restaurants and stuff up here and we ended up chalking it up to the fact that except for fish they probably only get deliveries once a week or so and they have to make everything last as long as possible.
I recognized everywhere you went because I drove to Alaska in early May & returned in early June. I drove up the Stewart-Cassiar to Watson Lake & on the wy back I did the Alaska highway to Dawson Creek. I agree on the roads, further south were better but there were good & bad parts in the Yukon & Alaska both. I did the trip in a Cayenne & stayed in motels. Next time, it's a van camper. I look forward to seeing the rest of your videos about the trip. Cheers!
Trinity looks deep in thought staring out of the window as you guys are driving along. I wonder if she notices the change in scenery between Texas and Alaska. Hmmmm
She has 2 positions on travel day - looking straight out the windshield and curled up asleep. Bonus 3rd position would be barking at cruise America dog stickers. -J
Oh good Lordy, im cried when you got to the sign - you made it. (soppy empath) Not quite but you could not be further away from me - Melbourne, Australia!!!
That is pretty much as far away as you can get! 😂 Someday we'll cross Australia off our bucket list too but when we do we need to make sure we meet up with our Australian friends! -J
Hey guys, loving your adventure. Very jealous can’t wait to get out and travel with my wife and do the same trip. Question do your traveling buddies ever make you wait around for them or is it just you guys doing it to them lol.😂
Suuuuuch a pretty lake! I'm sure there is a lot to explore around there! We saw a grizzly that morning on our drive but it was too late to get a video and we didn't have a spot to pull off. -J
Full disclosure - I'm the queen of multi-tasking and my brain went into over drive when you mentioned that you couldn't work while traveling (specifically while driving). So here are some of the things I like to do when I'm in the same situation (obviously these suggestions are for the passenger although of course you can trade off so each of you get a turn doing the task you need to do): Use a note taking app to record notes, ideas, outlines, flesh out outlines. Answer emails, reply to comments. Network - read posts, comment on them. Research - I like to use two devices, one to do the research and the other to take notes Edit videos or at least do a first pass. Well now I'm further into the video and it looks like you don't need these suggestions - you've got it down. Happy traveling!
Thanks so much. I think the biggest hurdle for Kalyn is the struggle to concentrate over road noise and bumps. The multi-sensory inputs just overload her. For me…I get seasick if I’m on a screen while riding. That said - we do a lot of business meetings on travel days. 😀 -J
We’ve driven to Alaska twice. In 2011, our first, we had a crack in the windshield, and my husband said we would wait til we get back, because we would get it broke. No cracks or pits on that trip. In 2023 we drove it and no rocks or cracks!! It’s the luck of the draw, I think!!
Loving your journey! We were camping in western NC and talking to a guy about people we follow. I told him about you and he said someone he followed is going to AK also. Turned out it was your friends who are going with you.
Best views ever! Outstanding video! Not withstanding the cliffhanger, this was fun to watch, very touching (when you experienced your Alaska goal), and your summary of your Alcon experience. I have to admit, I never thought of either of you as Drug Mules, so now I have to wait until next week to get my answer. Excellent- excellent video!
Cracks are avoidable. Im sure some drivers break others all day long. Pulling in too soon makes you a jerk You now have a Yukon Windshield. Thank for posting
Back in the groove! We only missed the first one because we had to scrap a video and we missed 2 weeks ago because we had too many days in a row where I didn't have time to edit because our schedule was too packed. 🙂 -J
I drove the Alcan in 1982 and it was all gravel and dirt except for about 30 or so miles around Whitehorse. Oddly enough I never got a chipped windshield nor a flat, though I picked up a hitchhikers rolling multiple flats a couple of times, one was from about 30 miles from where I live in south Georgia.
I get the 4 day setup/take down rush! When I'm doing my long motorcycle trips I'd try to save money camping instead of a hotel, but I found I lost a LOT of time setting up and tearing down camp if I'm sandwiched between travel days. So if I'm doing that usually I'll find a hotel, because I think I lose 1 to 2 hours at night and again in the morning just because I camped instead of like, 20 minutes in a hotel.....but I pay for it lol.
I would agree re RV speed contributing to problems. How many tire blow outs are at 60 mph with proper axle weights and properly inflated tires? Not too many I would guess. More likely blowouts happen at 70 mph+ with under inflated tires, and improperly balanced trailer loading.
Congrats finally made it!! I know your videos are a week or two behind so... It's old news to you guys but new news to us LOL Poor Trinity....thanks for sticking up for her... Looks like her and Cody are best of friends now! 🐰❤s 🐕❤s🐰! Lol BTW what is that gadget you have in your ear once in awhile Joe? God bless you and yours and all my brothers and sisters out there!😇 The simple eternal/everlasting salvation(good news): 1st Corinthians 15: 1-4, Romans 10:9,10 & John 3:16
Thanks so much! Yeah, we crossed over on June 17th. Crazy that it's almost a full month behind real time now but we've shot so much video on this trip! It's a good problem to have. It's just earbuds in my ear. I listen to a couple podcasts in the morning and sometimes I forget to take the earbud out before we film. 😂 -J
Super cool! By right behind us....are you in our current campground... or did you just cross over. 😁 If you just crossed over we actually crossed over on the 16th of June (Our videos are getting quite a bit behind real time since we only publish once a week). -J
Uhh...he's still gotta take it from the corral back to the store. Just keeping him from having to go cart hunting and protecting other cars from a cart rolling around and bumping into it. 🤷🏼 -J
Um...well THOSE were words I hadn't expected to hear! Guessing I won't be the only one waiting on the next video! And it appears you were right, more issues getting back into the US lol Much ❤
I got misty with you - I am so happy for you that you are doing the dang thing for yourselves! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. 🤍 That outro 😳 like I'm the person who sweats when I see law enforcement even when I know I'm not doing anything wrong. 😬 (I bet it was the jerky guy at the lake just trying to cause trouble). Can't wait for the next episode as always!
Awww. Kalyn didn't expect to get emotional either. It just kind of hit her in the moment. We love that we've had this opportunity and we're trying our best to enjoy every moment. When the border patrol guy started going down that path Kalyn and I were dumbfounded! -J
One Canadian snack you should try if you can find it is a Nanaimo Bar. You won't find it commercial packaging, just have to check deli's or refrigerator's in gas stations marts.
Great video guys.. We head up in a few days and found this very helpful - really appreciate the road reviews and stops along the way. Maybe we will bump into you up there :). Safe travels!
Let us know if you find our sign in the forest! 😁 Also if you make it to Anchorage by August 3rd we're having a meetup! Info in the community page here on UA-cam. -J
Now wait a minute! This is as bad as JR getting shot. 😂 Kudos Joe, it didn’t surprise me you are conscientious about the shopping cart. You guys are just so much fun to watch. Loved seeing you at the Welcome to Alaska sign. Ya made it together. Sacrifices in the short term lead to good things in the long term is what I have always believed. And it worked for me. The sense of accomplishment is wonderful, as you two know. I loved the looks. Now what kind of gummies did you get Kalyn? 🤪
I never let my vehicle get to far below half tank as you never know what’s ahead fuel out of fuel power outage ect. Plus it’s hard on fuel pump to get to empty. Half tank is empty to me. Lol
Or... you can feel free to say no. We wouldn't have fought the guy. I guarantee if he had said no by the end of the evening he would have had 2 camper vans in front of him and 1 behind...so he was going to be close to people no matter how he sliced it. We boondock almost exclusively and look for those remote spots too - but on the Alcan those are few and far between and spots like this are super popular so it's good to be considerate and leave as much room for others as you can. -J
I heard you mention that you’re going to go to wrangle Saint Elias national Park. We are spending the summer at the princess Lodge in Copper Center which is 10 minutes from the visitor Bureau of that park. This is our first experience at work camping. We’re spending 18 weeks at Holland America’s land Lodge near Copper Center. This is truly a beautiful part of the world and it is out in the middle of nowhere. We have buses from the cruise lines coming in every day, and of course departing every day. we are thoroughly enjoying your videos and we watched Craig and Victoria’s videos as well. Have a safe trip and enjoy your summer.
Never put plexiglass over the windshield. Back in 1972, my parents got a camper and drove the AlCan highway. Someone had told him to tie a piece of plexiglass over the windshield to prevent windshield cracks. He did that until a gas station attendant told him to remove it if he wanted to live. He told dad about a family in a Winnebago that had plexiglass, got in a rainstorm and someone passing splashed mud on the front. The guy turned on his wipers to clear the mud, which scratched the plexiglass. Not being able to see, he accidentally drove off a cliff, killing his entire family. Dad threw away the plexiglass and eventually got a cracked windshield.😮
Can you share the chip fix kit you used ? We’d be grateful! We love Alaska and never tire of watching folks travel through. We’ve been there but won’t take our fifth wheel 😬
WHAT? Now THAT’s a cliffhanger!
👀 👀 We were both in shock in that moment... stay tuned! -J

@@PittsWithAPurpose No kidding! We got a chip in our new one less than a week in. Why oh why! 😂 -J
I'm so happy for both of you!! Can't wait to see the follow up to the cliffhanger you left.
Hi, Victoria & Craig put out a comment that you were the other couple traveling with them while going to Alaska. Hope you enjoy your trip even though there are changes. My wife and I made the trip in January 1982 on our way to Anchorage. Was the trip of a life time and one that we will remember for ever. Sandy & John here in D'Iberville Mississippi.
Thanks for stopping by! I’m guessing you’ve gotten a good chuckle out of how “bad” the roads are since when you did it they were probably far far worse! -J
If you put clear fingernail polish preferably gel coat it will stop that crack in windshield from spreading.
We should be good with the resin now! If I don't have a kit in the future I'll try to remember this trick! -J
@@OpenRoading definitely a quick fix and have used and never had an issue. I just jumped out of the truck and had polish in rv and a few seconds and we were done !
You guys are so awesome. I bet your friends had a little chat with the border patrol officer before you got there? :D I find that they are generally very kind hearted and love a good ruse. I love how you just seem to roll with the punches as things come along. Life will always throw challenges your way - too many people just throw in the towel and quit, but then they just miss out on all the good stuff that's yet to come. So happy that you're finally in Alaska and you're making your dreams come true. Rooting for you guys and so thankful you are sharing your lives with us.
Thanks so much for the kind comment! All will be explained about the border next week! 😉 -J
we went in 1980,and i mean there was a event every day on the road,some really crazy ,some times scarey,we were 30 then ,70 now and man do we have some tales to tale,
I bet!!! You probably look at the road today and are like "Man...I wish the road was like that back then!!" 😂 -J
The widow repair turned out great! We hope Trinity is feeling better! We also hope that preview for next week is only a Wild Rv Life prank on you guys😮! Can't wait to find out! 😀
We'll detail the experience in full next week! -J
having alot of fun and i can tell that you two are made for each other......
It's true. -J
Congrats! Another awesome video. Best shot was Trinity sitting in the backseat at the start of Day 3 with a look of “How long are you all going to talk…we need to get to Alaska!” Next best was the drone footage of the lake! Wow!!
It's very easy to install an extenda stay fitting for your RV. This allows you to leave your trailer parked and take a spare tank in to get filled. We park for 5 months in the desert and never fill our onboard tanks. We leave them full and carry a spare 9 gallon tank.
We have a macerator pump and portable gray tank so we can do similar! 😀
I made my first trip on the road in 1969. It was dirt at the time. Two of us drove from Boise to Anchorage in 72 hours in a brand new pickup.I've made many trips since then, the road keeps improving.
What a great video! We are planning to go next summer and we are loving your real life experiences. We are looking forward to next week.
So glad to watch your trip to Alaska!!! My Grandfather helped build the Alaskan Highway during World War II.
That is so cool! We read up on the history when we first started on it and were astounded at how quickly such a long route was built! -J
Such an exciting feeling, traveling day four and entering your dream destination. You made it!
Crazy crazy feeling! -J
Great video! That was a huge wolf!! You guys really got us hooked with the ending 🤣 Kudos. Some weird comments this week though🤷🏼♀️ Love your positivity and kindness. I’m so happy you made it and appreciate you taking me along. ‘See ya’ next week!!
Thanks so much!
We apparently have attracted some spam bots which has been “fun” -J
Your video courageously depicts the challenges encountered along the Alaska Highway, despite warnings. The resilience and adventurous spirit shown in navigating these obstacles highlight the journey's true essence, making it a captivating and inspiring experience.
And I am Floating Village Life
Thanks so much! -J
Still enjoying your travels, especially your detailed info on the highway conditions, etc.I am making my Alaska journey vicariously with you folks. What a great cliff-hanger!
Thank you! Got any bail money? 😂 (I kid I kid) -J
Most people know the town of Gander Newfoundland that took most of the Air Traffic headed from Europe to the U.S. during 9/11, ,but most people don't know that Whitehorse took the Asia to Alaska on 9/11. There were a couple of 747 that landed and being a smaller regional airport, it wasn't designed for such large planes and probably the only since that have landed there.
That’s a cool story. I will look that up for more info.
Your sign is in great company....with the UNC sign, gotta love the Tarheels! Poor Trinity! We try to keep the truck a little cooler for our pup, he doesn't seem as likely to get sick with it cool.
Once we put her bed in there she always seems super comfy in the truck. 🙂 -J
I feel your pain over the long travel days and am really enjoying these videos. Love how you and Victoria and Craig give and take with each other and stay positive through it all. Maybe someday Jim and I will make that trip with the rv. Maybe.
We had a 2005 Designer 31 RLS. Loved it and wish they hadn't quit making them. Sold it in 2020 after many tens of thousands of miles with the only issue being one time the living room slide motor locked up and had to be replaced.
Quick question! Did you have any issue with the fiberglass cracking at the front bottom corner just off the bedroom slide? I’ve been told it’s a common issue but it still bothers me a bit. Fixed it once and it re-cracked so now I just try to keep it sealed from weather. It got doest get worse but it’s annoying. 😂
@@OpenRoading yes, from the very beginning. Dealer told us they could fix it but it would crack again. I just used to keep it taped over to keep the water out.
@@dalemarshall9736 Thank you! You just gave me a tremendous amount of peace of mind! -J
We are loving following your journey!
I love you guy yall are the next Kara and Nate y'all remind me of their van life days
That is tremendously high praise. I don't think you will ever see us turn to the extreme end of things like they do (zero shade! We watch all their videos - just not a direction I think we will ever go - for every video at least) - but I am so so humbled by even being compared to them. -J
We have really enjoyed your adventures getting to Alaska. I hope that you consider the Cassiar route for the return trip. There are so many places to see - Stewart & Hyder, Prince Rupert, Haida Gwaii, the Inside Passage...
Cassier is the plan - but not going to the coast, we've got to get back to the north east and spend some time with family before the snow flies. -J
Enjoyed your video while doing medical charts. Still have 40 to go but slowly making headway. Meeting up sounds great. We live in Eagle River which is a Northern suburb of Anchorage. The family and I will be traveling from 26 July until 12 Aug. Will search for your community page later to find the details if we are around
I'm a mechanic, with that being said... Do not run your truck low on fuel. The fuel helps to
keep you fuel injectors cooler, lubricated, and reduces wear on them. Try and keep your fuel tank
over 1/4 or more full.
Another thing when fuel gets low below 1/4 it agitates the trash on the very bottom of the fuel tank
causing your fuel filter to clog faster.
You are the expert on this not me. I'm fully aware of this.
I have a couple questions:
How does the level of fuel in my tank affect the temperature of the injectors? Is the fuel cooler the more there is in the tank? If so how much cooler? We talking 3 degrees or 30?
My fuel pump has 262,000 miles on it and I'm responsible for somewhere around 130,000 of those miles. Isn't that pretty good life out of a fuel pump? I've been told over and over that this thing should have blown up and sent metal shards through my engine by now (being a 2012 F250 and all)...but it hasn't. It might tomorrow! But it hasn't yet.
I personally replace my fuel filter at the recommended intervals and last fall I dropped my tank (long story that's documented in the beet harvest series) but in that process I got a good look inside my tank and if it wasn't fuel...you could have drank out of the tank. Now of course that could change with one set of bad fuel.
Again - You are a mechanic and I believe that you are telling me the absolute best practice and that your information is 100% correct. I cannot say that enough.
But there are many "Best practices" in life that I don't always follow. Sometimes for good reasons, sometimes because I'm stubborn. 😂 I fully admit that.
How it comes across to me sometimes is that if I don't follow those best practices then I am 100% going to destroy my truck next week when I believe in reality I may be shaving 1-2K miles off the life of my fuel pump and/or truck. Much like eating the junk food instead of a vegetable today. No the Twix bar isn't going to give me a heart attack and I should eat the vegetable...but the health influencer on UA-cam is going a bit far when they tell me I'm going to die from the sugar when in reality maybe I just shaved a few minutes off my life (assuming I don't die in a car crash when my fuel pump gives out) 😉.
But again, I am 100% NOT the expert (Have I said this enough? I just want to be clear for anyone reading this that I am NOT the mechanic in this conversation! lol) - and I am the one that will 100% deal with the consequences (good or bad) of the decisions I make regarding the maintenance of my truck and I DO take note and listen to the advice of actual experts like yourself even though I may not always heed it. -J
Hey Guys! Got my post card today! Thanks so much! Can't wait for the next one! ❤
WOO HOO! So glad!! Thanks for letting us know!! -J
@@jenniferweyers6077 I'm so mad at myself that I forgot to sign up in time. Oh well...
I’m so glad y’all made your dream come true! The ending is what? Can’t wait until next week!
Promise to release it on time! -J
As I'm sure you learned, you can't get lost in the sign forest. About 2 blocks away from there is a nice lake we walked around when we were there for exercise. Alaska roads will get worse and your construction delays will be a real thing. But you will enjoy it. Have fun.
So far we've only hit one long delay where a road was getting washed out (somewhere around Chickaloon.) It was a pilot car situation and we ended up waiting for 2 long cycles. But the nice thing is, since the sun "doesn't set" if it delays us a bit it's not too big of a deal. -J
@@OpenRoading That is a good thing, but it will get worse. You do have the proper attitude though. Enjoy the rest of your time up there. I do enjoy your adventures.
Congratulations on working hard and making your goal!
Beautiful drone shot of the rainbow.
Oh my. What an interesting cliff hanger. Didn't see that coming.
I blame salty sunseeker guy but I guess we'll have to wait and see!
My goodness. It was amazing to see both of you when you got to Alaska. What a great moment to capture, made me smile and reminded me of about half of the 2598 wedding videos I edited. I'm curious how this cliffhanger turns out.
That.....is a lot of weddings to edit. I edited 3 or 4 and that was 2 to 3 too many. 😂 -J
Great video!! I would bet Craig would let Joe borrow his gloves to dump the sewer.😂
100% he would! But I'm good. 😁 -J
So excited that you made it to Alaska. Enjoy the adventure!
Thank you!! -J
I am so happy for you guys. I can definitely understand being choked up. God bless you both 🙏
Watson Lake store was out of a lot of essentials like milk when we were there. Apparently they said they only got deliveries about once a week at that time.
Oh wow! Yeah, we were just talking about portion sizes at restaurants and stuff up here and we ended up chalking it up to the fact that except for fish they probably only get deliveries once a week or so and they have to make everything last as long as possible.
I recognized everywhere you went because I drove to Alaska in early May & returned in early June. I drove up the Stewart-Cassiar to Watson Lake & on the wy back I did the Alaska highway to Dawson Creek. I agree on the roads, further south were better but there were good & bad parts in the Yukon & Alaska both. I did the trip in a Cayenne & stayed in motels. Next time, it's a van camper. I look forward to seeing the rest of your videos about the trip. Cheers!
One of the awesome things about travel is recognising places in pictures!!
Trinity looks deep in thought staring out of the window as you guys are driving along. I wonder if she notices the change in scenery between Texas and Alaska. Hmmmm
She has 2 positions on travel day - looking straight out the windshield and curled up asleep. Bonus 3rd position would be barking at cruise America dog stickers. -J
Oh good Lordy, im cried when you got to the sign - you made it. (soppy empath) Not quite but you could not be further away from me - Melbourne, Australia!!!
That is pretty much as far away as you can get! 😂 Someday we'll cross Australia off our bucket list too but when we do we need to make sure we meet up with our Australian friends! -J
lol for two people you do a lot of food shopping 😂. Great video. 😊
Haha! I promise you it's not an every day thing. 😂😂😂 Lots of days don't include a trip to the store. -J
@@OpenRoading 😍 I’m sure they don’t.
Hey guys, loving your adventure. Very jealous can’t wait to get out and travel with my wife and do the same trip. Question do your traveling buddies ever make you wait around for them or is it just you guys doing it to them lol.😂
We camped at a CG along that lake where a family owned it for years. They said the water in that lake is crystal clear. Very pretty location.
Suuuuuch a pretty lake! I'm sure there is a lot to explore around there! We saw a grizzly that morning on our drive but it was too late to get a video and we didn't have a spot to pull off. -J
Full disclosure - I'm the queen of multi-tasking and my brain went into over drive when you mentioned that you couldn't work while traveling (specifically while driving). So here are some of the things I like to do when I'm in the same situation (obviously these suggestions are for the passenger although of course you can trade off so each of you get a turn doing the task you need to do):
Use a note taking app to record notes, ideas, outlines, flesh out outlines.
Answer emails, reply to comments.
Network - read posts, comment on them.
Research - I like to use two devices, one to do the research and the other to take notes
Edit videos or at least do a first pass.
Well now I'm further into the video and it looks like you don't need these suggestions - you've got it down.
Happy traveling!
Thanks so much. I think the biggest hurdle for Kalyn is the struggle to concentrate over road noise and bumps. The multi-sensory inputs just overload her. For me…I get seasick if I’m on a screen while riding. That said - we do a lot of business meetings on travel days. 😀 -J
We’ve driven to Alaska twice. In 2011, our first, we had a crack in the windshield, and my husband said we would wait til we get back, because we would get it broke. No cracks or pits on that trip. In 2023 we drove it and no rocks or cracks!! It’s the luck of the draw, I think!!
Loving your journey! We were camping in western NC and talking to a guy about people we follow. I told him about you and he said someone he followed is going to AK also. Turned out it was your friends who are going with you.
That’s awesome! -J
Love watching your videos! Aw Trinity! She is sorry!
It was our fault. We let her drink too much water right after exersize. 👀 -J
I was so excited for you! Then I saw the end, what the $%@! Hope to see you next week LOL!
If it helps... we did not post this video from jail. 😂 -J
Best views ever! Outstanding video! Not withstanding the cliffhanger, this was fun to watch, very touching (when you experienced your Alaska goal), and your summary of your Alcon experience. I have to admit, I never thought of either of you as Drug Mules, so now I have to wait until next week to get my answer. Excellent- excellent video!
It's always the people you least expect. Ya'll thought we made the $15K from gate guarding.... 😂 -J
Awesome video again! Looks like so much fun.
Thank you! -J
Cracks are avoidable. Im sure some drivers break others all day long. Pulling in too soon makes you a jerk
You now have a Yukon Windshield.
Thank for posting
Congratulations on reaching Alaska. You have earned it👍👍👍
Thank you! -J
Great Video!! I am so glad you are back making your weekly videos. Keep up the good work and have fun you deserve it!!!😁
Back in the groove! We only missed the first one because we had to scrap a video and we missed 2 weeks ago because we had too many days in a row where I didn't have time to edit because our schedule was too packed. 🙂 -J
OK!! Great cliffhanger!! 😆
Pretty sure our heart rates were skyrocketing at that moment! -J
I drove the Alcan in 1982 and it was all gravel and dirt except for about 30 or so miles around Whitehorse. Oddly enough I never got a chipped windshield nor a flat, though I picked up a hitchhikers rolling multiple flats a couple of times, one was from about 30 miles from where I live in south Georgia.
I hope that you have an amazing time on your dream trip! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks so much! -J
I get the 4 day setup/take down rush! When I'm doing my long motorcycle trips I'd try to save money camping instead of a hotel, but I found I lost a LOT of time setting up and tearing down camp if I'm sandwiched between travel days. So if I'm doing that usually I'll find a hotel, because I think I lose 1 to 2 hours at night and again in the morning just because I camped instead of like, 20 minutes in a hotel.....but I pay for it lol.
1000% I haven't done a big motorcycle trip yet but it's on my bucket list! I want to do both styles (hotel and camping). -J
I would agree re RV speed contributing to problems.
How many tire blow outs are at 60 mph with proper axle weights and properly inflated tires? Not too many I would guess.
More likely blowouts happen at 70 mph+ with under inflated tires, and improperly balanced trailer loading.
Congrats finally made it!! I know your videos are a week or two behind so... It's old news to you guys but new news to us LOL
Poor Trinity....thanks for sticking up for her... Looks like her and Cody are best of friends now! 🐰❤s 🐕❤s🐰! Lol
BTW what is that gadget you have in your ear once in awhile Joe?
God bless you and yours and all my brothers and sisters out there!😇
The simple eternal/everlasting salvation(good news):
1st Corinthians 15: 1-4, Romans 10:9,10 & John 3:16
Thanks so much! Yeah, we crossed over on June 17th. Crazy that it's almost a full month behind real time now but we've shot so much video on this trip! It's a good problem to have.
It's just earbuds in my ear. I listen to a couple podcasts in the morning and sometimes I forget to take the earbud out before we film. 😂 -J
Well done !!!!
Just shows putting in the hard work , anything is possible 👏
Thanks for keeping it real.
Fan from Australia 🧡
Gloves for sewer dumping!! 😆
Someday maybe....not today. 😂 -J
Not this guy!!
@@r8edrv4fun65 And that's A-OK! Glove up! -J
We did the big push as well. How ever we have made a side trip to Dawson City with the time we made up. Right behind you.
Super cool! By right behind us....are you in our current campground... or did you just cross over. 😁 If you just crossed over we actually crossed over on the 16th of June (Our videos are getting quite a bit behind real time since we only publish once a week). -J
You do good work! Beautiful video! We are planning this trip for next year! Our rig was made in 2005, and is a Montana 2955RL .
Thank you so much! You’ll love the trip! -J
When you return your shopping cart, you're putting the shopping cart guy out of a job. 😮
Uhh...he's still gotta take it from the corral back to the store. Just keeping him from having to go cart hunting and protecting other cars from a cart rolling around and bumping into it. 🤷🏼 -J
congratulations guys, I'm so excited for you all❤
Thank you! -J
Um...well THOSE were words I hadn't expected to hear!
Guessing I won't be the only one waiting on the next video!
And it appears you were right, more issues getting back into the US lol
Much ❤
I got misty with you - I am so happy for you that you are doing the dang thing for yourselves! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. 🤍
That outro 😳 like I'm the person who sweats when I see law enforcement even when I know I'm not doing anything wrong. 😬 (I bet it was the jerky guy at the lake just trying to cause trouble). Can't wait for the next episode as always!
Awww. Kalyn didn't expect to get emotional either. It just kind of hit her in the moment. We love that we've had this opportunity and we're trying our best to enjoy every moment.
When the border patrol guy started going down that path Kalyn and I were dumbfounded! -J
One Canadian snack you should try if you can find it is a Nanaimo Bar. You won't find it commercial packaging, just have to check deli's or refrigerator's in gas stations marts.
Great video guys.. We head up in a few days and found this very helpful - really appreciate the road reviews and stops along the way. Maybe we will bump into you up there :). Safe travels!
Let us know if you find our sign in the forest! 😁
Also if you make it to Anchorage by August 3rd we're having a meetup! Info in the community page here on UA-cam. -J
Now wait a minute! This is as bad as JR getting shot. 😂
Kudos Joe, it didn’t surprise me you are conscientious about the shopping cart. You guys are just so much fun to watch. Loved seeing you at the Welcome to Alaska sign. Ya made it together. Sacrifices in the short term lead to good things in the long term is what I have always believed. And it worked for me. The sense of accomplishment is wonderful, as you two know. I loved the looks.
Now what kind of gummies did you get Kalyn? 🤪
LOL! That last sentence cracked me up for some reason. 😂 No gummies I promise! No "Lettuce" either.
-J
@@OpenRoading you guys crack me up. And I sit here reacting just like I’m there. You have such a wonderful way of drawing us in. Love it.
@@ernestinebyrne9912 I'm so so glad you enjoy your time watching our videos. Our primary goal through the channel is to bring smiles. -J
Your face when that guard got you both real good😂lol
Sounds like Mr sun seeker got even for you asking him to move. Did you get a picture of Trinity in Alaska?
😂 good ole Mr Sun Seeker.
Not at the sign but she is loving it here! -J
I never let my vehicle get to far below half tank as you never know what’s ahead fuel out of fuel power outage ect. Plus it’s hard on fuel pump to get to empty. Half tank is empty to me. Lol
If it works for you go for it! 😁 -J
Wait that is how you leave us hanging 🤦🏼😯
👀 I promise you....we planned on ending the video where we ended it. And then.....that happened. -J
We boondock mostly and we look for unpopulated spots. We would have pulled out too if asked to move up to bumperr to bumper camp.
Or... you can feel free to say no. We wouldn't have fought the guy. I guarantee if he had said no by the end of the evening he would have had 2 camper vans in front of him and 1 behind...so he was going to be close to people no matter how he sliced it.
We boondock almost exclusively and look for those remote spots too - but on the Alcan those are few and far between and spots like this are super popular so it's good to be considerate and leave as much room for others as you can. -J
The views you are showing are so much like the highlands of Scotland. Have a great time ❤❤❤
We have said similar! (Although we haven’t been there 😂) but we were both surprised at the amount of vibrant green! -J
I heard you mention that you’re going to go to wrangle Saint Elias national Park. We are spending the summer at the princess Lodge in Copper Center which is 10 minutes from the visitor Bureau of that park. This is our first experience at work camping. We’re spending 18 weeks at Holland America’s land Lodge near Copper Center. This is truly a beautiful part of the world and it is out in the middle of nowhere. We have buses from the cruise lines coming in every day, and of course departing every day. we are thoroughly enjoying your videos and we watched Craig and Victoria’s videos as well. Have a safe trip and enjoy your summer.
Very cool! In next week’s video) and the week after) you’ll see some familiar places then! -J
The end of the video?!! 😂😂😂 y’all are so funny! Can’t wait to see next week’s episode!
I was like... ummmmm.... that's not a happy ending... and now my interest is peaked to watch next week!
Like who told this man this exact truck and trailer has 10 pounds of weed 😂
i just come over and what was like dang i got to wait a week. 😅 definitely good way to get some new viewers. cant wait to see what u do to them.
Haha! We always planned to end this video at the sign! And then this happened and had us both like “ok….what do we do with this?!” 😂 -J
The bondock spot by the lake was great. That would have been great place to say.
It’s a pretty spot! -J
Never put plexiglass over the windshield. Back in 1972, my parents got a camper and drove the AlCan highway. Someone had told him to tie a piece of plexiglass over the windshield to prevent windshield cracks. He did that until a gas station attendant told him to remove it if he wanted to live. He told dad about a family in a Winnebago that had plexiglass, got in a rainstorm and someone passing splashed mud on the front. The guy turned on his wipers to clear the mud, which scratched the plexiglass. Not being able to see, he accidentally drove off a cliff, killing his entire family. Dad threw away the plexiglass and eventually got a cracked windshield.😮
Well....that wasn't on our radar but if anyone suggests it now I will politely decline! 👀 -J
Yay, you made it to Alaska!
WE DID!!!! -J
We found your channel from watching Craig and Victoria channel so I subscribed and look forward to your videos.
Can you share the chip fix kit you used ? We’d be grateful! We love Alaska and never tire of watching folks travel through. We’ve been there but won’t take our fifth wheel 😬
Sure thing! amzn.to/3S63UIz
