I was your bartender in Hyder! It's so wonderful to see the valley's beauty through someone else's eyes. Thank you for sharing my home with the world!
+Sivie Simpson my wife and I will come see you and get Hyderized on our AK trip from NC next summer!
I know how hard it is to travel and get good shots at the same time. You guys do a remarkable job! The caribou on water was insane to see!
Thanks Ryan!
Watching this in early 2020. The older X Overland videos are WAAAAAY better than the new stuff. Sorry had to say
"I didn't get stuck, I got slowed down a bit."
Beautiful video series.
this series is the reason youtube has Autoplay, outstanding series
I wish your expedition will never end! This by far the best Series on CZcams for me.
It's always the highlight of my week when you release a new episode. I've briefly visited Alaska but I can't wait to get back. As a 17 year old this series in addition to everyone on expedition portal have shaped my life aspirations. I'm currently saving to buy my first 4x4 and hopefully in the near future I will be out there too.
I have been left breathless, speechless and hungry for more. I just watched entire series this morning and kept getting mesmerised. Thought I knew Alaska, you guys have proved me wrong. Thank you for this epic adventure.
Clay, This is what it is all about. Watching this episode I was captivated by the stories within. The people, the land... The team did a fantastic job on cameras and your narration was great. Very cool.
Thank Johnathan! Thanks for all your support through the series!
Amen! This episode was amazing. That final campsite is the mother of all overlanding campsites. Coordinates please?
These episodes are captivating. The remoteness of the terrain combined with its shear beauty is awe inspiring. The wanderlust is real!
One if the best episodes from all seasons!
This episode is about pure beauty.
Please. Can you promise you'll never end the trip? It's too awesome to end!
Thank you for sharing your trip, I have greatly enjoyed watching!
this has completely changed my perspective on adventure, Thank You
Amazing! This series has brought me to the realization that I need to start re thinking my life, until a short time ago, I have been caught up in the daily work routine and havent taken much time to be with my family, or to start teaching my children about the outdoors the way my father taught me! Thank you for the inspiration!
Hahahaha! "My Precious!!!!"
This is awesome, I stopped paying for cable TV a few years ago and finding this has made my day.. I have watched every episode up to this point leaving wanting to watch the next one. You guys are truly living the dream.
What an incredible privilege to be invited to a whale camp. An unbelievable experience. Thanks you for sharing.
This is probably one of the best episodes, amazing that you guys came up to Canada showed the beautiful land. thank you so much for sharing the history of the Inuit people and touched on some of Canada's dark history that not very many people know about. Thank you for the trips and filming you guys are doing.
Every show is better then the last! Keep it coming!
I AM CAPTIVATED!!!! This entire series just keep coming at you with more and more wonderment of what is around the next corner. The remoteness of the locations and the REAL people who survive there is humbling. THIS SERIES IS EXTREMELY WELL DONE! Thank you so much for the effort to put it all together.
Les from Oregon
Your very welcome Les!! The production of this show has been one wild adventure in itself. Thanks for watching.
Clay-
One of your best told stories yet! EPIC!
Thank you for this! You guys took on a ton more work and and dealt with less space just to show us all the adventure!
this was the best episode yet. spectacular.
I'm in Japan, work and study hard to watch this series every other week. Too bad this does not have Japanese translations... Love this series!
Wow.. I am a years late to the party but, this episode is the best so far and I have to say I have already spent hours watching this series, kinda backwards. good job Clay and crew
I'm speechless.Your passion and most of all respect resonates deeply.
Great episode, one of the best! Big fan of the show!
Since I've been to all of these places two years ago, I wanted to correct one detail: The community of Hyder, AK is actually the only US-territory on that side of the valley. The road up to the Salmon Glacier and the tunnel of the old Granduc copper mine is Canadian territory again and the glacier is one of Canada's largest. So his statement at 24:55 should be: "It's all here in BC, Canada!"
I know, it's a detail, I'm not even Canadian, just wanted to make sure everybody is aware of this anomaly...
Your right on! We didnt realize this until after we got home and looked at some maps. What a cool place.
The last 1/4 was completely amazing!. It may not be the remote off roading greatness I have been hoping for. But to me it finally showed the reasons why I want to plan and execute a trip of this style and magnitude.
Truly amazing series. Please keep them on CZcams. Moving to cable or satellite would be a major disservice to your fans. I look forward to each episode with more enthusiasm than the last. As said, the cinematography and narration are amazing. The experiences you share are truly mind blowing. Thank you so much.
Great episode!
What an experience!
What a great episode. I loved the insight into the locals and fighting for the land. Awesome filming, music, story. A+
Truly remarkable!
I like traveling around, but no like that, to me, this is incredible, the footages are so real and the images are beautiful, it gives me motivation to explore the world!
What an amazingly powerful episode.
that has to be some of the most beautiful country!! wow. I cant' wait to go somewhere like that in my jeep. Oh and thanks for being a continued source of inspiration. I loved season one and have so far really enjoyed season 2
just simply mesmerizing. epic adventure
When the series is over, I will be saddened. Then I'll start over from scratch and begin again with episode 1.. This is great stuff..
best episode this season
I think it was my favorite episode so far this season. the cave exploring, the hospitable whaling tribe and their struggle to keep their heritage alive and the breath taking views of Hyder and crossing over the MTN pass. Makes you wanna wake up and start packing. Great job thanks for allowing us to be web wheeling on such a great trip. Cheers!
Wonderful episode. Beautiful sites. Thank you for immersing yourselves in the local indigenous cultures and respecting their ways.
Would EPIC be enough of a word for this video? Awesome!
You guys are blessed ! Speechless
Just awesome, thank you for taking the time to share your experiences!!
"We owe it to the world, Clay!" - Toby
Best video I have ever watched.... Beautiful!
Great episode. It just gets better and better. Hope you guys keep sharing such a wonderful experience!!!!
Im speechless!! thank you guys, thank you so much.
So inspiring
I just found your channel today & started to binge watching your season 1 series because I wanted to see what it's like to overland & to see you guys respect & want to learn about the Inuit culture is amazing. I know It's been about 8 years since this video aired it's still amazing to see people actually take time out of their lives to learn about the indigenous culture in Canada because we've been so oppressed
Welcome and thank you for watching!
Loved the intro, great shots as always guys. Keep it up!
This is the best channel on youtube, keep up the good work!
You guys are the best, thank you very much for such wonderful series. I am delighted to see such wonderful places and feel what you guys have felt. Can not wait to see the next episode!
Absolutely epic! I'm so pumped to do this one day. Thanks for sharing your adventures and inspiring me!
Amazing episode guys!, Keep Them Coming! Please
i don't want this series to end :(
OMG this was the best one yet.
Great episode! Best cinematography yet for sure. Thanks for all your hard work.
Amazing episode! Absolutely incredible
This was an awesome episode! Well done.
Thanks Rod!
Man this videography is amazing. I love capturing stuff on video+picture but i know i love exploring more. Lol i certainly couldnt get those shots knowing there was so much more to see!
I have three regrets - 2 for me and 1 for you. 1. Damn it would have been fantastic to be there with you. 2. I found this before it was all uploaded - the waiting for the next installment is killing me. 3. Its a shame you where not able to spend more time in some of the places taking it all in. Some of those places one could easily have spend days exploring and taking it all in.
Most of all congratulations on making it happen.
love this show guys
you guys should head to china next
Love the series guys keep them coming!
This has been the best series, got me hooked from the start and had to ration out the videos so I'd have something to watch with my coffee each morning! Love how this video combines everything I love - photography, 4WD'ing and adventure! Thanks for the great inspiration guys, keep up the excellent work! Love to see the amazing places you guys explore, and the adventures along the way! Posted on my birthday as well, doesn't get much better than that!
Tim from Australia.
Happy birthday Mate!
Amazing!
I've been loving the series. I always look forward to the next one.
Best episode.
We live in Stewart and love it! Not too sure if you know, but actually once you hit the dirt end of that road to Salmon Glacier (the glacier you went to) you actually were back in BC, Canada!! Hyder/Alaska is only the small area of the town and basically paved road! The area is old mining areas and Grand duc mine is farther down that road. Salmon Glacier is actually Canada!
Woot...Part Eleven!
Awesome. !!! better than National Geographic
I love all of the videos that you guys produce, they are so inspirational. Looks like a great trip! I hope to take one similar one day.
Loving this series. I feel like I'm there. Moar please.
awesome loved it! watched the whole serie in a go! really want more! and my on "exploration" looking forward to see more of your series when you guys make some! good luck and drive safe!
Greetings clay and the crew from all the way from Tanzania, East Africa.
Fantastic series. This particular episode resonated with me, though. I grew up only a short drive from Stewart and Hyder. Many times I found myself thinking, “Oh, you should have gone here or done this…” That’s the benefit of local knowledge, I suppose. As well, it's too bad I took that area's amazing beauty for granted and I don't get back enough to visit.
And you guys got stiffed with your Hyderization ritual. We used to get the 190 proof stuff there, not that sissy 150 proof you guys had. They probably realized you were from the southern 48 and couldn’t handle the real goods, well, except maybe Toby…. ;)
What are the 30 dislikes for? These guys have shared a top quality video of a fantastic trip!!!
Yes!!!! I have been waiting!!!!!!!!!!
awesome guys irt but overland style rock on
You had me at BlackMill :-)
Alright! Heading to bed, till tomorrow ;P 😜
me and my friends need to save up to do one of these trips... i have been looking at all of those ep.. and they are awesome... with so many wonderful views keep up the good work love the videos
Great series. Thanks for sharing!
those mosquitoes seem to be the size of hummingbirds
And known to take out small rodents. LOL
i have to go to the area around hyder soon. its just too amazing!
lovin all of it
Love the series! I'm very surprised that you guys never did the Telegraph Creek Road on your way south down the Cassiar Highway. Nothing like 20% Grades single lane cliff side roads. It truly is an amazing drive.
There is also tons! and I mean tons of places to explore around the abandoned Asbestos Mine of Cassiar area.
There is also an abandoned rail grade that runs from Dease Lake to Fort Simpson that was constructed in the 1980's its goes into an area the Locals call the Scared Headwaters it is one of the trips I'll never forget.
I can provide you with a KMZ file with all the trails I've done along with a ton of GoPro Video I've captured in the last few years of ATVing around the area.
It is worth adding this area on your next adventure north.
It has become a passion for me to explore this area and has become almost an addiction.
Thank you again for the great series brings me back the feelings of my adventures north.
Forgot to add you can check out my flickr account and look at some of the sets to give you an idea of some of the more off highway trips I've done
www.flickr.com/photos/adamleckie/sets/
Not sure of the condition of the rail grade from Ft. St. James to Dease Lake. I read as much info as was easily obtained on google (which wasn't much).
I'd be interested on hearing your account of going into the Sacred Headwaters. Maybe you could share some gps tracks of the area?
Cheers
I did the trip back in 2010 and I hooked up to the rail grade from Tatogga lake taking the Ealou Lake Road. The rail grade north of Tatogga was washed out If I had a bike and not a quad I could have bushed it but it was too much work to get the quad around that section also was a bit more bushed it and rough. The South section to Mount Klappan was excellent and in great condition all the way to Mount Klappan I didn't have enough fuel to explore farther but I can Imagine that the road does get worse and depending on the time of year muddy.
The Sacred Headwaters was amazing beautiful country great scenery with amazing views pictures don't due it justice.
I have wanted to make a trip back and since the road is in such great shape I would drive my pickup loaded with my quad to Mount Klappan then hop of the ATV and go from there.
I would be glad to share all my tracks I've done almost every trail in the Cassiar area as well I have thousands of KM of GPS Tracks I'd be willing to share with you please email me at adamleckie@hotmail.com
Hello I worked underground at the granduc mines in the 80s tunnels were safe passage for our mine buses because of extreme avalanche area
Woow I love it hope one day I hv money n ivisit these places by my own
I had no idea whaling was still happening up there. Then again, I never head of Hydra either. LOL
Thank you for making these episodes. Im addicted to them. We just got a new rig and are slowly building them like the cruiser. Do you guys have a video that shows the layout of the vehicles? Would love to see that. Thanks
Comparing this to Discovery Channel or National Geographic is insulting. This is made to SUCH a higher standard.
Excellent documentary. Thumbs up and a subscription fro me. Wish I had stumbled into you sooner.
Thank you very much for making adventure movie clip series i watch whole 12 clips and your hard work on traveling and wish all the best & may triple gem bless you all I am sri lankan IT Person and i enjoy watching it.
wish more people found out about these videos
if i ever go there i will have tons of OFF spray for bugs :)
Professional in EVERY way...videography, script, v.o. narration, edit, even titles. Just retired from over 40 years in TV network broadcasting, mostly ABC-TV in Hollyweird, this is as good as that, Discovery, Nat. Geographic, you name it, excellent work. This is pro work all the way, devouring every episode. www.frederickfichman.com
Thanks Frederick! Thats great to hear!
AGREED!
+1 Professional in EVERY way
How far did the tunnel go!? That was awesome guys! Thank you for sharing.
We never found the end!
That is awesome! Road trip time. My dad and I are both avid spelunkers, so that looks awesome.
The tunnel is 17 km (10 miles) long. It was used to transport copper ore from the mine on the other side. Castle Resources rehabilitated the tunnel a few years ago, when the copper price supported reopening the mine. Copper prices crashed though.
This series Is amazing i am In love with it . I've done some long travels Here in south america To build up know How to do something similar but across Brasil, Paraguai, Argentina, Chile And Bolívia. Have you guys ever considered going diesel? I use a 2012 toyota Hilux(smaller brother of the tacoma) and I Can get around 30miles a gallon on it. Wich gives amazing autonomy out of a stock tank. I dont know If There are any diesel Toyota trucks in US, But any particular reason to Go with gasoline?
diesel Toyota's are not sold in the US.
