- In this episode I am riding to Dawson City in Canada. This town and all the infrastructure this far north into the Yukon would not have existed without the discovery of gold in 1896. It was the start of the Yukon Gold Rush and I didn't realize, that 125 years later .. they are still mining gold here.

The next 57 episodes will be of Noraly panning for gold on her new claim of land until she reached her ultimate form, Golden Boots.
😄
Hilarious...
Very good 😊
She’s almost done with this travel so that idea was a good one❤
@@godofllies Maybe she did alaska and is back in Yukon busy panning
Noraly herself is pure gold. 😊
Ha! Witty... I see what you did there 😆
🙏👍🤗
She's got golden hair already.
24 karat and shines like the sun!
Noraly makes me want to buy a Honda and hit the road and I'm 81 so I need to do it soon before I'm to old
😵OK... This was fascinating. This Woman is simply one of the most interesting people on YT. Historian, Anthropologist, Geologist, Humanist, Naturalist and... She's an Onion. Layers and more Layers of Wonder and Amazement. I am becoming completely hooked on your Channel, Noraly...
You think you are becoming hooked on her channel, go back to the very beginning, you will not be disappointed, and even more awe struck.
Sorry I disagree, Noraly IS the most interesting person on Social Media. The 🎤(mike) has been dropped.
A sweet onion.
Your miner friend Kyle was an incredible source of knowledge - finding him was like striking gold for the channel!
Kyle did an excellent, laid-back presentation - made the episode!
Awesome backstory he had, wonder if you take the drone into one of the gold mines he has? 😆
I see what you did there lol
In a world gone mad, one of my doses of intelligence and sanity....is right here with Noraly. For that,...I am grateful.
amen🙏🏼.
The world has truly gone mad & what we believed to be our most trustworthy institutions (physicians & scientists) have proven themselves to be as weak & pathetic as our greedy, warmongering politicians & feckless crisis actors aka MSM!💔
Sooo agree with that!! Dank je wel Noraly. 👍
Create sanity in your own world. Be good to others and animals. I just got home from the morning feed chore to a cat colony; they were happy to see me🐱
Living in the u k I agree totally. Our world couldn't get much madder.
@@davidgriffiths6179 I follow your news over here in the U.S. I feel bad for you guys. And the madness over here...is impossible as well.
For somebody that is a geologist and former mine worker, this has to be a little slice of heaven. We can hear the enthusiasm in Noraly's voice. A dredge for someone from the Netherlands has to have to have echoes of home. I remember Noraly visiting an abandoned dredge in Argentina too. The mountains in the drone shots at the beginning of this episode were epic. I hope everybody appreciates Noraly's hours of work, maybe days, just to make one 25 minute video. So professionally done and very entertaining. Thanks, Noraly! Great episode!
Noraly needs to be supported by NatGeo or Discovery channel, she has proven beyond a doubt that she can bring the coin in!👍
Exactly so 😁👍🏻
She even once drove down a vulcano gravel hill on a metal board...
100% Madness imo...
And I love it 😎😂👍
Forget main stream media... I'll ride along with Noraly anyday...
GREAT episode.. 👍
@@maplehouseknives I think Not. than she has to work with time sheds, butgets and...managers, wont work I think. Noraly is how she is, a clever free mind. Please let her be 'just' that.
How can this woman upload 2 or 3 weekly videos of excellent quality and longer than 20 minutes? How do you manage? This woman is a wonder
That was really nice of Kyle to provide the tour, and history lesson.
Yes thats what i thought. Nice young man to do that.
Can't help but feel an overwhelming sadness that the Alaska journey from South America to Alaska is about to come to a close . But , also much gratefulness to Noraly for taking us on this incredible journey where many of us have vicariously travelled with her . Noraly has been consistent in presenting science , humanity , history, and nature's beauty . She definitely does not shy away from adventure. Can't wait for Season 7 !!
I agree it's making me sad that she's coming to an end also. I have not missed an episode on this journey. Every 3 days I look forward to her video. It's going to leave me with an empty feeling when it's over.
Hey it's not over yet! Enjoy the moment! I'm sure there is plenty left to the season
Don´t worry, next year she will be on the road for shure, maybe she will take us to Japan or North Korea 😁
Maybe she'll be back with more Geology..Geology Intense on the insular and global scale.
I can’t wait for season seven either!!!
With her skills and professionalism, Noraly continuously puts to shame all those big-shot documentary companies. She is quickly becoming a legend in the youtube community. Another excellent video.
Here's the thing, there are possibly millions of channels to view but one thing I always know 100% with Itchy Boots is that I will be entertained and learn something. Also, I will see a friendly pretty face.
Those drone shots really show how vast the Yukon is. My dad and my uncle worked on that dredge in the late nineteen fifty’s he said they weighed you before you started working and that they would weigh you when you leave, to make sure you weren’t steeling any gold, but they never did. Thanks for the tour.
That is hilarious! Drink a liter of water and your weight goes up. Show up to work with a full bladder and you can take several ounces of gold home without weighing more. I guess they thought the workers were not very smart and easily intimidated.
@@Dave-sw2dm dont reveal the miner’s secret here 😑
“Jimmy’s Place , All Kinds Of Stuff” , Noraly - “ Just what I was looking for ! “
😂 haha
Mostly tourist what-nots but worth the visit.
I bought a brand new Royal Enfield Classic 350 and now I have to ride Every Single Day! It's my first bike in 30+ years, but you got me motivated!!! Thanks for that!
Very cool-looking old-school bike. I really like the WWII olive color.
You don't say it, mate. Same here. Bought myself my first bike after 38 years of not riding, in 2019 after I started watching IB when she visited Malaysia that year. It has been awesome rides and IB videos ever since. Thanks IB for that!
I'm 83.. i.wanna bike.
@@lorenreece1665 You don't stop riding when you get old, you get old when you stop riding.
If it has two wheels & a motor, count me in! Brakes optional.
@@lorenreece1665 That’s not so old, some of the chaps that ride to our Wednesday lunchtime meeting are that age.
You were fortunate to be able to talk to a family member who represented three + generations of gold mining. What he had to say was so interesting. He detailed the three types of mining technics that pretty well represents the history of the Yukon. The large mounds of gravel along side the river were HUGE! The town of Dawson City is definitely a huge tourist site for so many years. The mountain and valley views we saw were breathtaking. As always you never disappoint on your adventure content. Three👍 up & hang in there🤙❤
Dawson City is kind of like Disney World - a fantasy land kind of tourist place stuck in the real world of the working Yukon - just like WDW is smack in the middle of the real state of Florida. Both are entertaining, but neither are especially relevant to the every-day lives of the actual citizenry other than those in the tourist trade.
Kyle is an excellent spokesmen for the gold mining industry, and a nice fellow
Thank Kyle for the excellent tour
I have been camping in the Alberta mountains for the past couple of months, with just my dog ( most of the time) and had to get youtube premium just so I could quad up to get cell service and download your videos to watch back at camp. I can't miss even one! Love what you do!
I love the episodes where you talk to local "guides" like this. It's so fascinating to hear the stories they share 😊
Meeting Kyle was really fun! What a family legacy he is a part of.
My Grandfather emigrated from Scotland in 1894 and because he was a carpenter, he was required to work in the Yukon on Sternwheelers on the Klondike River for 4 years if he wanted to emigrate. He probably worked on the Keno. I did a lot of scrambles and enduros during the 50-60's so I appreciate your backwoods riding, and I know how exhausting it can be. (We had rigid frames then, and kidney belts.) Keep up the amazing videos and history lessons.
Yukon Noraly strikes gold! (and is closing in on 1.5 million subs!) Looks like you were in a Geologist's Playground, and enjoying every minute of it. So interesting to see the mining still taking place after all these years... thanks for taking us along for the ride. Happy trails!
Noraly is most definitely the " Gold Standard " for adventure documentaries. As always the videography and editing is in a class by itself.
I admire stories like Kyle’s. Stepped into the same profession as Father, Grandfather, and Great Grandfather. Also a historic field of work. I would bet Kyle could fill up 10 videos with great facts and stories of the past. Watch out you may never leave after catching Gold Fever!
Can't imagine living like these gold-mining families. So glad we got to meet some of them with Noraly. Loved the look of Dawson City. It truly is an outdoor museum. What a wonderful way to meet some of the Yukon Territory!
True to form, Noraly shares her experiences in such a way that is totally relatable to her viewers. With expertise in geology, Noraly is comfortable conversing with the mining community as well as sharing the local history as only Noraly can do. She's remarkable in allowing her moto riding to take a back seat to the experience and that's why Noraly is so enjoyable. The journey over riding. Brava Noraly, rubberside down!
One thing I love about riding a bike, You meet the nicest people in the strangest of places.
Dear Noraly. It is incredible how you manage to have a surpise in almost all of your episodes. This time it is about mining gold with details that I never knew. Other times about indiginous people and then about beautiful surrounings and nature. All because of how you relate to people. Keep them coming champ!
Loved Dawson City - great to see it again!
been there in Dawson., sevdral times in the summer--lots of tourists, but there was a paved highway or one of those CALCIUM gravel roads constantly sprayed with a water solution
🇮🇹 Here WE are, folks! Gooood Afternoon, Noraly, Internet, sisters and brothers, let’s goooooo, as usual! 🇮🇹
Love seeing the world through Noraly's eyes and camera lens.
The interest in all things geology runs through Noraly's veins as deep as the gold veins run in the Yukon.
Many of the mosquitoes in the Yukon are so large that they are fitted with floats for water landings.
🤣🦟🤣
And in Alaska you can buy a "mosquito hunting license"
Stay safe wherever you are Noraly! Thanks for everything!
Big thumbs up for Kyle!
Great episode again! So funny to see Noraly with a pan at the end finding gold! She has been experiencing the thrill of all these gold rush prospectors back in the days. She is a real gem💎
You seem to have run into a real expert there.
Really cool talking to the miners, visiting active operations, hearing the history and how claims are staked.
Noray it is nice to have someone willing to take the time to show you around like that. The all look like good hard working people. It just adds to what you do.
Dawson City looked like a movie set
I remember when it wasn’t that long ago you reached 1M subs and since then, the growth has been incredibly quick!
Keep riding and taking us with you!
I love learning about my own country!🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦thanks Noraly I’m seeing so many places I want to go now and explore! So beautifully filmed too. Love from Victoria.
I’ve just noticed you’re up to 1.42 million subscribers, hardly surprising to those of us who have been following for the last few years, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, Noraly !
I haven't posted a comment for a while, but your vlog today illustrates the beauty of this planet, and your narrative is always informed Noraly. Again, your interactions with the locals, your outwards optimism and your real interest in all you see, makes this channel such a pleasure to watch. Can't wait for the crossing into Alaska.
Shows the beauty of the planet and then glorifies a greedy few who pollute and destroy it to find tiny amounts of a vanity metal.
@@hu_b I appreciate your opinion regarding what you said, and to an extent, I agree. But I would appreciate if you made your opinions known not at my expense. Make this your own individual comment, so you can have an informed debate.
I enjoy watching Noraly's channel, and don't want to be involved in combative dialogue.
Thanks again
@@nwahs41066 It's a public forum when you post someone may respond but it was nothing personal. Have a great day!
@@hu_b no worries. I really do appreciate what is happening all over the world where the small and big operators are scarring the earth to assist in the extraction of any substrate, and it sickens me to think that the generations to follow will not experience the beauty which once was.
Thanks again Hu B. Have a top day from down under
Noraly, We are so fortunate to have found the Mode Lode of Information! You are fantastic at explaining the history of the areas you travel. You have a unique ability to make everyone you meet comfortable with an outsider. "You meet the nicest people on a Honda" 🤩 Highest Respect! YOU ROCK!! Safe Travels 💖🏍🤠
Thanks for another awesome adventure Noraly! We love Itchy Boots! Much love to everyone and their families from Quartzsite Arizona 😜🌻🤠
Documentary film-making today! This is a nice diversion, Noraly becomes an interviewer to assemble material and tell a local history story. Kind of the locals to take the time to help!
Another great video Noraly, and meeting Kyle was gold!
Noraly has struck gold fever in me following her adventures in the great far North.
Bringing back many memories of my travels in northern Canada 🇨🇦 many decades ago!
Thanks 😊
so, what's preventing you from coming back, eh?
@@coldlakealta4043 Good question! Mostly the weather lol but maybe next summer ☀️!
Last time I was in the Yukon was 1992. I left Canada 1999 and have been living in Thailand since 2005...
Oh how I love watching that little image on the road, traversing thru all those beautiful mountains. I loved the history of the stampede and the gold rush. Let’s sluice! Dawson City was really cool for such an old historical town. Gold mining is not an easy life but modern day mining is a big help. I know Noraly was in her glory seeing all this. Very very interesting. Kyle was a very good informative tour guide for your day. Can’t wait to see the next episode!
The composition and editing of the drone shots in this episode were top notch.
Another fantastic episode. Beautiful drone shots to start and then really interesting talking to Kyle and finding out all about the historical mining. You are so good at finding great people to talk to. The next episode looks exciting too.
#1 Channel right here with ITCHY BOOTS & Alaska Adventures! Bravo at every turn. 🥰💪💥👏💚
Wow! Your videos are so well done it keeps me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what is coming next! I think it's your genuine interest that comes through and engrosses us in whatever you are doing. And then you find a guy like Kyle who is so knowledgeable and so good at explaining the history and process.
As a Canadian Dutchman . Noraly you are a slice of heaven to watch . 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Time does not stand still but flies by when Noraly shares here adventures.
Love your outside museum description of town and the people you meet to show what happened back then and now.
Another fantastic episode.
Only Itchy Boots could give this tour! What a wonderful adventure.
Your channel is worth more than the gold to us!
My itchyboots merch arrived, so had to put it on to watch.. LIKE A DAMN ITCHYBOOTS GEEK! *proud
Another incredibly educational ep! Noraly got the fever 😊
Buenos días Noraly y a todos quienes estamos aquí pendiente de ver las maravillas que nos regala a travez de tus videos. Una inspiración nuevamente al ver lo profesional de edicion en tus videos y la narración de los lugares por donde vas viajando. Desayuna cuidate junto a Alaska viaja seguro por siempre. Desde Ecuador un abrazo
I like the Cat🐱👍
Your historical commentary to all your videos is absolutely GREAT! Thanks you!!!
Noraly, i just got back from South Africa 🇿🇦
I paid your bike a visit in Knysna!! Savana is still doing just fine😄. I took some pictures! Waw! Cool. Most people visiting this museum, just come to see your bike, like me😄😄😄👌🏻👌🏻🇿🇦🇿🇦
Lucky you , can you share some pics of savanna please 🙏
Uhhh no, gold!🧐🤔🤫se ha terminado el viaje aquí!😜😂😂😂😂
Noraly, having been to the Netherlands frequently -- including a couple of weeks ago -- I often saw women who resemble you! Classic facial features that I admire and the same accented English. So, Europe has ridden with you for years. You are an Ambassador who will be remembered and celebrated for years. Congratulations on your remarkable "go-with-the-flow" attitude, which I hope will serve as a model for all who will dare in the near future.
Adventures can be made everyday but turning to this channel makes mine .Now I Loved the stories and the scenes and the drone views . WOW looking forward to the next . Thanks
In the next episode Noraly finds gold to match her heart!! :) Thanks for the memories!!
What a communicator is Kyle! With his Canadian accent! I had no idea about the mining techniques used in the Yukon and learned a lot!
Just wooow Noraly. The drone footage on point as usual. The picturesque little town is so beautiful. The gold panning information and the history given by Kyle is priceless. In the next episode you get your own pound of Gold.
This was a interesting trip. I didn’t realize how much gold mining was still going on. I love the old style architecture in the older gold rush towns.😊
One of your best shows! Educational and entertaining.
"I think I have some gold, ha ha, I think I have some gold..." I found some gold when I stumbled upon Itchy Boots!!🧡🧡🧡
Undoubtedly with Noraly's famed travel adventures and giving such exposure to the Klondike and Dawson City area once again, she will have sparked a second gold rush. 😃
Of course you’re supposed to be there! You are a documented world moto-explorer letting us see and learn about the vast areas most of us could never see! Kudos to you!👏
I could see Norlay becomeing a gold miner and doing extremely well in it. As she has the best attitude and attention to detail that would make her very successful.
That country is so beautiful. I am glad you have the wild free living adventurous spirit to experience and film it. You are an amazing lady. 👍
I have to admit I'm truly impressed by your determination! Also your tenacity when it comes to adversity. Carry on, Father's blessings.
It's great to see and hear how the Gold Rush started up in the Yukon. So many stories written about life up there, the wildness of it all, and the characters that abounded. Magic!
Yet more Itchy Boots gold! And yeah....I could listen to Kyle for a bit more. :)
Drone footage is spectacular!! Thanks Noraly for all you do for us!! So appreciate you and your channel! You are a legend!!
hoj Noraly, what a david-attenborough-level of story teller are you. both thumbs up. stay safe. alex.
So many descriptives can be applied to Noraly. Such a full life she lives. Tom and I have watched her from beginning to now and have not been disappointed. Her engaging personality and her knowledge base serves her well. She has taken us to so many places that I know, that I will ever be able to go to so I go in spirit with Noraly and have fun and adventure filled time. At times Tom and I are startled with her bravery!
Your channel is an addiction to me. I always trying to watch atleast one episode everyday.
What a beautiful part of the world that is 👍👍👍
This was the most intresting adventure yet. I can't wait for the next video.
Being as far in the Northern Latitudes, I am truly surprised that the weather looks to be so mild.. You're ONE Tough Girl, Noraly.. Let's all hope your Documentaries, continue.. We are all fascinated by what your cameras are reviling, about the World and it's people.. KEEP AT IT.. Thanks..
This is one of my favorite episodes- great you met Kyle!! Thank you.
Noraly - No doubt you are hearing this over and over again, but you CANNOT be so close and not ride the Dempster- 773 km of gravel with one stop-off; an incredible experience.
My buddy and I did it in 2006; he on a Kawasaki 650 and I a BMW GS650 - the ride of a lifetime. Don't miss it! If you do, every time you tell someone you rode to Alaska, their first question will be "Did you ride the Dempster?" Best wishes
One of your most enjoyable episodes. I can see you were having a blast. Can't wait until your next episode
I drove up all through this area back in 2009 but my memory is terrible and have very patchy recollection of some of these places. So good to relive it through these videos. I remember all the dredgers near Dawson and the funny little border post on the way to Chicken. Kyle is a fantastic guide - knowledgeable and articulate. Great episode.
i was there in 2007, remember most of it, just regretting that we passed through too quickly
@@CLFL14256 Yeah I did the same - too quickly. If I was to go back I'd slow things down a bit too.
I would most definitely pan for gold but not really expecting a huge find but enough to make a ring or souvenir .
There’s Gold in them thar hills. It’s nice that people will take time to explain and show you about mining for gold. I’m sure you told them your background and that probably helped a lot. Good luck panning for gold. Ride safely.👍👍🇨🇦
Hey Noraly, Those mounds of gravel are actually called tailing piles. Pretty sparse population now. Hard to imagine 100,000 people headed to Dawson City back when gold was first discovered. Even having 30 to 40,000 people in the area is hard to comprehend. Ans so to the buckets so full that gold was spilling out and over. WOW. Thanks for your investigation and sharing.
I am pretty sure Noraly knows what a tailing pile is.
Wow - once again, the drone video and music showcase the majesty of that area. I also felt tragedy and sadness but overwhelmingly, Beauty. So much fun to follow Noraly and learn from her adventures! Thanks, Noraly! You keep teaching us things we would otherwise never come across!
As watching every episode this channel never failed me to have a better day always...Ride safe & Happy travels,Noraly✌✌✌
Drop the next episode now Noraly. I can't wait. Today it was a very interesting episode.
Another superb episode from our adventurer Noraly.
An interesting glimpse into a place and lifestyle I never knew about. Thanks for taking us along.
"I think I've some gold...I think I've some gold"... 😄
Very interesting detail from Kyle. Looking forward to next episode.
Thanks for yet another impressive episode Noraly. Lovely drone shots and so good you tell of about the history of where you visit. Let's hope you find some gold in the next episode. You deserve it!
