The Alexander Mackenzie Trail | Part 1
Vložit
- čas přidán 27. 08. 2024
- In 1793, Alexander Mackenzie and his team of 9 men traveled from the Fraser River to the Pacific Ocean via an overland route he learned from the local natives. Today, that route still exists, but is difficult and wildly overgrown. We took our built Jeep Gladiator, a couple Land Cruisers, a Wrangler, and an old Bronco to take on the challenge.

Great Channel love watching it! 👍
Should make a shirt with a lifted gladiator on it!
I think I'l buy some of your cheap, self-promoting trinkets. NOT!
@@mikehofer432 no worries just leave a rude comment instead, it’ll make you feel good about yourself. 👍🏻
This was a long, tiring, and expensive trip but I'm super proud of how this video turned out! If you enjoyed it, all I ask is you subscribe or hit the thumbs up for me! :)
Best content on the Web!
Really like it...
always good videos keep up the good work.
You make some of the highest quality overlanding videos available today! Thank you for the work you put in to make it feel like we are out there with you and your friends. I have been a subscriber for quite a while and enjoy all your adventures.
Jeep should arrive with a suitcase full of cash any day now.
Now that Hollywood sucks, people like yourself making awesome videos are going to be stars.
Agreed! 😂
If you haven't already watched Expedition Overland on amazon I highly recommend it. 3 seasons with about 12 episodes each. They do the entire Pan-American Highway.
I agree as well
Agree as well, great editing and love the music
Camera work and voice over is fantastic.
Without a doubt, THE best series on yt. Perfect scenery, perfect amount of dialogue, and perfect soundtrack.
He should be at 100k subs by now!
Yep!! Ever since Expedition Overland got all cooperate.
Its also not constant product placement which is a welcome relief. Ive started falling out of my fandom for a certain Australian 4wd show because it is now 70% product placement and 30% driving.
Nice to see a ford bronco in the mix.
Agreed! I miss my 95 so bad, sold it to my no brother good in law who totalled it. Was definitely one of my most reliable rigs
Was never a fan of the bigger style. Miss my ‘76
I see you brought Ned Flanders along on the trip. Didn't know he was into overlanding!
Totally does look like ned 😂🤣😂🤣😎
Hidilly hodilly, overlanderino!
😂
You just gonna do him like that
Priceless!
Love seeing the Land Cruisers, especially that 80 series! Can't wait for more!!!
Kim is a solid dude. Worked with him for a short bit in Prince George. I love seeing him in your videos. I wish him and you the best. My wife and I watch your videos every evening.
Just like watching a surround sound movie wth the special effects of Industrial Lights and Magic....keep going.
For me This is the Best Adventures ever.
It will always be on my Top Lists in this Channel... 😊😊😊
Outstanding work here. The video and music are on another level !!
Much ❤🙏
I miss living out in that country. Hope to go back next year. So much to see and explore
It was great to watch you guys cross during the day from the other side. Would have been awesome if you guys had crossed with us the night before. We were definitely the first this year as the cutting on the other side was relentless at night.
Yeah I wanted to cross at night for the fun, but ultimately we decided to wait for daylight for better footage. That whole section before the river and after the river definitely hasn't been driven this year. We found a cabin up by Kluskoil with a logbook, and the guy said on the 17th of Aug he went in from the same point as us and spent 9 hours sawing to get to Kluskoil. Bless that man.
@@TheStoryTillNow sounds about right. We did 10km in 10hours to get to the Blackwater.
@@TheStoryTillNow it's hard work and journeys like this that keep the trails alive for everyone else. Great footage, and thanks for not including the nudists of the Blackwater.
lol, no problem. I don't think anyone wanted to see that. 😅
I love this! The music. The editing. It feels like watching a movie.
This brings back so many memories of our trip a few years back! 6 vehicles = 7 people - 6 guys (one with a broken arm and only three of the guys knew each other, the rest all strangers) and a lone female, and said female would love to do this trip again!
One of the best channels on youtube by far !!! Awesome seeing my friend D in the red Rescue Jeep!
Well done guys. Kim, you give all the old retired people hope for a fruitful life into they’re dotage... I mean, if *you* can do it...
Thanks for all the effort Shaun.
Passionate overlander here. You guys always have the best videos. Best cinematography and music hands down. It's like watching an adventure movie.
The way you vlog, edit and provide the footage that you have I can't understand why anyone would dislike what you create. Your truly talented and the rigs are amazing. The adventures are amazing.
Thank you so much.
Man I have watched countless off-road/outdoors/ videos and I have to say this mini series was nothing short of amazing! You did an awesome job of capturing the beauty and magnitude of our great country👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Thank you
good video, I hope you guys returned the boat to where you found it. Its common practice to leave boats and canoes at remote locations so people can use them and return them to where they are stored
We put it back exactly where it was, clean and better than we found it. 👍
The quality to your videos is top notch. The added drone footage of the area around you just adds to the beauty! Keep the quality coming!!!
Wow man. You did it AGAIN! Having watched the XO series on this trail about a dozen times I was super pumped to see you doing one. This video was fantastic and I am looking forward to the next part. Thank you for inspiring us all to get out there and explore AND shoot video. The fact that you do this all without a dedicated film crew is awesome and gives me hope I can put something together soon. 👍
Top quality production, like the usual. Watching this on my TV is liking watching a Netflix show or documentary
Thank you for this serious man. Your film really motivates me to actually document our trips. I hope I can bring 1/10th entertainment and experience as this series did. 11/10
Wow, I have seen a couple videos of this trail I am not sure I would want to do it but glad to see people out there trying to keep it open.
eerie and beautiful at the same time. such is nature. Remnants of the past are fascinating. Cant wait for part2!!!
Damn! That last crossing was right at the limit for some of those rigs. Another amazing trip! Thanks!
Beautiful country treated with respect. Great video. Can't wait to watch more. Thank you.
Your videos inspire me as a creator.. truly a full cinematic experience watching these 🙌🏻
Me: 2am I need to sleep.
Notification: The Story Till now premiering now.
Me: Sleep can wait
Great little trail, looks like you all having a great time
You guys are getting me so stoked for 2022 adventure wheelin. Long live BC 4x4!
What a fantastic adventure. The videography, music, narration, drone footage, etc. All outstanding. Very, very well done.
Thank you!
Did this trail around 2000,, one of my fav runs. Met Pan Phillips kin. Was awesome!
These trails are so cool! Someday I've gotta visit BC!
This has to be the first video I did not fast forward through. I don't even know how I got to it . But loved everything about it !
How there is even 1 dislike is beyond comprehension. This is some of the best overlanding vids on youtube
Your channel has some of the best off-road content on CZcams. Throw in the movie like filming and editing and you have something special.
Finally i get to see Ford Bronco in your videos so cool. Epic ride. Cant wait 2nd part. Nice job. 🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙✌👍👍👍👍
You've outdone yourself again, Shaun. Great job.
I like that bronco dont see enough of those anymore
Fantastic Shaun! Trips like these forge strong friendships
you've taken me out of the mundane pandemic life and into your adventures. such awesome footage.
Beautiful Documentary. Thanks for sharing such a magnificent trail and history.
Your video quality, music choice , story telling is superb..... amazing
Thanks!
Congratulations for your videos, they are inspiring, well filmed and with a brilliant soundtrack! Best regards from Portugal!
Your video quality, music choice and transition, scenery video capture, and overall editing is absolutely amazing. Love watching your videos. Best one yet!

Great video Shaun! Im sure you were happy as a kid getting on that trail. another one on my bucket list. part 2 here we come.
I feel relaxed whenever I watch ur videos ❤❤
Love from Dubai
The best series BY FAR!!
Definitely gets a thumbs up. Can't wait for part 2!. Great job as always, and was great to see all of the different rigs. Looks like it was a ton of fun.
Professional cinematography
WOW!!! Those high drone shots were super cool. It is amazing what nature does if we leave her be. Epic for sure! Can't wait for the next one. Cheers!
Man your videos are getting better and better. Top notch quality here. You deserve a million views!
Thank you!
That drone footage is amazing!!🙌🏾
Awesome cinematography , intense background music, have fun guys.🔥
The music is unbelievable! add the amazing shots and it was like being in a movie theater. Standing ovation to you. I’m subscribing!
Thanks man!
I've hiked about 5km of the Mackenzie Trail south of Vanderhoof. Lots of lakes nearby to fish in.
You guys are awesome i wish i had some friends like you guys to go with on those awesome trails i got a 2018 nissan frontier pro4x with a 3 inch lift it does awesome offroad
Those drone shots are so beautiful. Love BC❤️
Your content is unbelievably good. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoy it!
Haha, I just got back from wheelin and salmon fishing Bella Coola this long weekend. While I was there, I was wondering when Shaun would do the Alexander Mackenzie trail 🤣
Awesome filming & videography 👍 Wish we had trails like this in Queensland
Beautiful, dream trip, nicely done.
The videography is so amazing
Great cinematography, you guys killed it out there!
I like the shot quality and production level...feels much like X-Overland...but they got kinda big time and just, idk...feel like they lost connection. Viewers all demanded more "local" coverage of US based locations and trails, but they felt it just didn't align with their goals. A channel like this could easily fill that void and meet demand.
I watched the entire ad’s for this it was such a good video. Nice work brother, best videos ever! Wish we had these kind of trails in Ontario!
Just found this video, my Great, Great,Great ,Grandfather Jacques Beauchamp was a French Voyager on the original trip, he was from Montreal area.
He is mentioned in Mackenzie s log book.
Can't wait to see more. Denis Beauchamp
Very cool!
One of the best videos I've ever seen . Man I wish if I can bring all my jeeps over there . Respect man
Frikin' awesome. I love the show, and the diversity in 4x4's. British Columbia terrain looks similar to Pennsylvania ( which is where I'm from ). Can't wait for part two😁
The views is stunning!
Absolutely love your content! Thank you for taking us along on your adventure’s
Always nice to seat and watch your video's , to bad we don't have trail that long here in Switzerland .
Nice to see a Bronco in this adventure ,I'm a Rangerkeeper and off road enthusiast
Cheers
Great review of the NUXALK-CARRIER GREASE TRAIL
Nice mix of vehicles 🚗
Great video and very nice to see some of B.C. !! Gladiator build looks amazing.
Thanks man!
Incredibly well done and filmed. Your episodes are like watching a movie, totally love it!
Thank you
Loving this adventure, glad I found your channel!!!
Nice footage. Haven't seen any footage of that trail since 2015 ish. Expedition overland did that trail. You guys seemed to capture more of it. Awesome job. May have to start adding parts to the truck so i can do it someday.
There’s lots of footage since 2015
Video and Edit is just on other level . I enjoyed watching your video 👍
Thanks for the history lesson.
Awesome adventure. Those river crossings are sketchy at best. Great video.
Absolutely amazing content. Look forward to all content all put out because of how peaceful yet adventurous it is. Great work!
Thanks!
Wow! what a captivating film! Amazing work 🇨🇦🙌
Nice video and a couple beautiful landcruisers
Oooo! You guys are doing the MACKENZIE TRAIL!?! Awesome ... this should be good ... (actually, I already watched it, now it's time for episode 2) ... HA! Need Flanders, that's awesome. I didn't notice till Ryan Douglas mentioned it.
Every one of your videos feels like a movie
Hey, nice video. My wife and I hiked the original Mackenzie trail in 1995. China falls to hwy 20. 300km 21 days 2 food drops no-one else out there. Sure looks different, we did it long before pine beetles dropped all those trees. looking forward to part 2
Love to see different off road trucks. Keep it up and God Bless as always. 🤜🤛
Wish I could have checked that place out when I was up there a couple weeks ago.
Awesome video and storytelling. We need more of that white 80 series... 🤙
i absolutely love these videos! i cannot wait to go on more adventures myself...i am falling in love with Montana and all of its sights! would be awesome to do a fan trail run when things open back up...
awesome just awesome ! can't wait for part 2 ............ another outstanding job Shaun !
Loved it! Thanks for taking us along.
