Great job on 1K subscribers! The editing is phenomenal and you gave me some edits on Google Maps again :)

Very nice video! I have always loved going through the route and chetwynd and Hudson’s hope are very good places

Wow what a beautiful landscape, looks like the surface of Klendathu from Starship Troopers. Love it

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

Nice work on the video. Peace County has always intrigued. I'm hopeful that one day I'll have a chance to visit their myself.

[@xlbolt]

Thanks! It’s definitely a shock being in a place that has a fraction of the population of my own city but the infrastructure punches above its weight. I guess it has to with the much higher truck volumes in the region.

Great stuff as always. It’s amazing to see the road network that far up North. I may never go there in person but it’s a pleasure to see it though the eyes of your camera nonetheless!

[@xlbolt]

Thanks! It's a part of the country I never expected to see for myself, and one of the areas there really isn't much content for. I haven't seen much of the Alaska Highway online in general either!

Popping up here just to say that the font used in the Hudson's Hope welcome sign is the one developed in 1968 for Mexico City's metro system and still in use today.

[@xlbolt]

Oh that’s very interesting, especially noting how they handled the iconography and style of the metro, seems very unique. Thanks for watching as always!

What was it like visiting this part of British Columbia east of the Continental Divide of the Americas? You were in the Peace River Basin back in this year's spring.

[@xlbolt]

Definitely reminded me of driving through the Prairies, with the scenery of the river valleys being very similar. While like the prairies, the roads do show design aspects that are very BC in nature in comparison.

@@xlbolt, I'm glad you followed the Peace River and see Williston Lake and the W.A.C. Bennett Dam.
