- Graham and Shannon are experienced athletes in alpine climbing and ultimate frisbee, respectively. But the adventurous couple is on a quest to try new outdoor sports together. In 2017, they tried mountain biking for the first time. This time they’re giving packrafting a go.
After eight months of planning and training, they embark on a 10-day adventure to the remote Aniakchak caldera in Alaska. From wind and rainstorms to popped packrafts, they quickly learn that nothing could have fully prepared them for the adventure that ensues.

Whoever was shooting the video with them, third-wheeler of the century.
Exactly what I was thinking!
Looks like it was 2 people with them shooting the video, and for safety
I wish they mentioned the other 2 people like damn there’s more then 2!
@@GamerRadar they are acknowledged in the end and they are shown in the bloopers
I don’t blame them for having others w them but it does take away from the sense of adventure and danger. But I don’t blame them for wanting to make movie especially if rei was paying.
You two just set the new standart high for couple goals, lol. What an adventure!
So happy you enjoyed it, Israel! 👍😉
I love these two's personality! What a great team.
Same, they're just so funny!
My respect goes to Shannon doing the heavy pack work, true grit. I've done my fair share of packrafting trips and the hiking parts can be brutality, but once you hit the water the good times begin.
Well done. I imagine this was extremely hard to document with the weather and water! Hats off to the film crew for sure!!!
Great video... As a paddler who is addicted to kayaking in Alaska, I feel compelled to say that isn’t a Grizzly bear. At the coast, this grizzly cousin is the Coastal Brown bear, which is actually larger (evolved eating a salmon, protein rich diet) and more aggressive as they have no forest to run to for safety.
My favorite REI vid
Nice video & great experience, thanks for sharing.... BUT I have to admit that my absolute FAVORITE moment in the whole thing was the guy screaming toward the sky at the top of his lungs at the end of the closing credits!! Priceless!
I am glad that I can watch it from my couch ☺️
Hell yeah, an ultimate player!! Nice

I'm in love with Alaska and want to make this trip with my wife, (she won't do it if she sees this video) I wonder how good my sweet talk is
Yuppies.
How do you afford this lifestyle?
this is a paid advertisement
you are the target audience
It's a pretty rough looking canyon from the satellite. I wouldn't run it either.
So Forest was there the entire time?
Yep, it says Forest and Tommy were safety boaters in the credits
What is the tent you guys have ?
Brake my heart when I see guys step back when their lady try the kiss them...
Proud Oregonian over here🌻🐝.
Randomly clicked on this vid and they raft the river in a white water raft guide on when they’re learning :)
name of the song beginning @ 9:00 ?? anyone?
I would love a chance to make a video similar to this
"I also have big thighs, honey. Dont forget!"
I want to see their lighterpack 😅
Cool Kokopelli kayaks.
i feel so alone
Hahaha same bro
People act a bit different when being recorded. Always trying to be their best self for the camera and acting like they are different.
just wondering why they lugged a 10 person tent all over the tundra
5 BV500 bear cans.
Gonna have to spend a lot more time on AllTrails to find something that will rival Aniakchak 🙌😍
Holy cow, that seems like it was a terrible trip lol
I met Grahm
