Bordering both the pacific and arctic ocean, Alaska has 40,000 miles of shoreline. Itâs the largest territory owned by the United States and one of the fishing and freight capitals of the world. If thereâs one word to describe Alaska, itâs infinite. Whatever records other U.S. states hold, Alaska will probably beat them. Itâs just that massive. Welcome to an endless paradise of rivers, glaciers, active volcanos, beaches, islands, and more animals than any of us can count. If you like being outside and living life on the edge, this is the perfect place for you. Tag along with my wife and I as we embark on a 10 day road trip from Anchorage to Seward. Whale watching, hiking, fishing, glaciers, breweries, and mingling with the locals are all on the agenda. Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy the ride.

I am a lifelong Alaskan born and raised in Anchorage, and I must say that this documentary is probably the most realistic depiction of (summertime) Alaskan life I have seen. You hit all the major spots in Southcentral AK, interacted with the locals a lot, and didn't pronounce any of our place names incorrectly like 90%+ of other documentaries do. Kudos to you, especially for talking to the locals. Us Alaskans are more than used to tourists visiting, and most all of us are more than happy to show off & share our state with those who aren't fortunate enough to live here.
There are some people who wait their whole life to be able to visit Alaska, and it's so easy to take this beautiful state for granted when you live here all the time. Your documentary makes me realize how lucky I am. Thank you.
This is the kind of feedback that wakes me up in the morning and keeps me going. Thank you for recognizing my interest in the people. I know it is not about just how beautiful a place is but the people who make it up. Everyone has a story to tell and I just want to hear them. Alaska is my favorite place to date. I can not wait to return and hope to connect with more locals like yourself who can teach me more.
I just Returned from my Trip in Alaska. I went May 3- 10. I went to one of the places you mentioned Hope, Alaska. I found it Beautiful and Peaceful. Thank you for your videos
Oh wow thatâs so awesome! Glad to hear it. I will go back to Alaska one day. What a place.
Excellent! Thank you.
Beautifully done. Thank you!
Thank you too!
Thank you for video!

Worth every penny!
I've been to nearly all the places you went and it was so good to see them again. Your filming and narration was outstanding. I will be viewing more of your videos. â€
Hey thatâs so cool that youâve been there! Thanks for the kind words. Check out my travel channel for more content like this in the future. Weâre headed to Norway this August: youtube.com/@theskyelounge?si=s42cf-vyvKQ5C5TM

Thank you Chris! There will definitely be more restoration videos as progress is made. Glad youâre here for it!
What a moving piece! I certainly felt as if time stood still as I was completely enthralled from the majesty of, of EveryThing! Now I'm hungry for Salmon! đ
Thanks so much for that wonderful feedback Jeffrey! That gives me a lot of inspiration to keep making these kinds of films! Itâs a lot of work so itâs a really big deal to me when someone takes time out of their day to write me about it. đđœ
Great film. We will be visiting Anchorage, Seward & Denali in less than two months. This was so informative and helpful. Thanks!
Very nice video production and very accurate.
Thank you very much! Doing my best.
Wow. What a stunning way to remember a beautiful journey. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Thanks so much for being a part of it.
This was a wonderful documentary!! Great drone footage helped me get the perspective of all the areas that you visited. I will be visiting Alaska in less than 2 months. Your film makes me even more excited about our upcoming visit! Thanks for taking time away from your vacation to capture Alaska for viewers like myself.
Hey Brady, awesome work.
Hey Tyler, thanks so much! Let's hang out soon.
I live in Seward. Great video!
Wow! What a place to live. Thanks đđœ
Beautiful!
Thanks Garry!
Lovely film. Enjoyed it a lot, thank you!
Thank you! Congratulations for the very nice documentary! Impressive.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fantastic!đđđ€
Thank you! Cheers!
What an awesome place and you captured the spirit of adventure, again, and this is my favourite adventure youâve both done, thanks again â đ
The spirit of adventure! You said it. I love that so much. Thanks for being on this journey with us.
Finally I was able to see your incredible work! I really enjoyed the story of Mel, it felt so wholesome. It was really great to know a few things about Alaska that I was totally unaware of, especially about the fish!
The beers and food! Oh my, I can only imagine how amazing it tasted. Thank you for sharing a mix of documentary and vlog style. Keep it up! đđ»
Yayy! Iâm so glad you checked it out. Meeting Barbara & Mel was definitely a highlight. What a different lifestyle than the one I live lol. I could totally live off the grid there for a while. The food was so incredible. Expensive - but delish. The plan is to go back in Feb! Just donât know what year yet. đ
@@BradySkye definitely keep us posted! âșïž
it looks amazing there
Amazing indeed!
Love doing this travel life with you. xo
To the moon and back!
Great stuff! Thank you.
Hey thanks so much! I hope I can find the time and funding to make more of these kinds of films, more often. It was a lot of work so I really appreciate your support!
I think I was teary eyed the whole video. Cant wait to get married there next august!
Wow! Glad to hear this film made at impact. Getting married in Alaska is going to be so special! I want to know more.
@@BradySkye My fiancĂ© and I have been wanting to go to Alaska ever since we were kids. We have the desire to move there in the future as well so being able to go for the first time and having our wedding and honeymoon there will be pretty close to life changing. Weâre having a small micro wedding at the Salted Roots Cabins in Seward right on the sound.
@@AmandaXNorth I love it! I am excited for your future together. I can tell it will be a fulfilling life of authenticity!
Love it and love it brady! Enjoying life mate and thats all that matters.
You said it my friend! Very glad you are a part of it.
Thanks!
Another great film of yours. Thank you for the awesome film.
Thanks a million! More travel films will come, slowly but surely. I'll probably film one on the coast of Maine this July.
Thank you very much, that was awesome đđđ
Youâre awesome! Thank you for your support. đđœ
What a great video to watch .
Glad you enjoyed it đđœ
4:19 your glasses.
My all time favourite Randolph glasses
Thanks for a great, informative video! A question please - how did you venture further from the Exit Glacier Overlook? The endpoint with the 2010 sign looked roped off beyond, with warning signs and no clear trails. The further path you took seemed clear and easy in the video, and the view closer to the glacier looked great.
I wish I hadn't watched this late at night - all that gorgeous food is driving me crazy. Some amazing footage, and interesting mini interviews with the locals. đđ
Haha I have a hard time watching food as well. I love it. Thanks Duke! Iâm glad you pointed out the interviews. I feel they are really important for capturing the heart and soul of a location.
@@BradySkye No superb work. Did you use your new drone for the aerial footage? What one did you get?
Wow , just amazing footage , thank you so much for sharing this. Another great piece of work.
I've had fresh Alaska Halibut in Pennsylvania , melt in the mouth.
Love your videos , been watching since you had your honeymoon here in Ireland.
Thanks again an stay safe
Thank you to the moon and back! Wow, that Alaska Halibut you had in Pennsylvania sounds memorable :D Great to hear you are enjoying my films! I'll keep making things and hopefully we will run into you one day.
Bro this is so good. In a sort of Indiana Jones type investigation. Very cool
Itâs an honor to be used in the same sentence as Indiana Jones. I am happy to carry that legacy in real life. đ„
The Delta brewing company in Delta junction Alaska was having the same problem with trying to leave from there original location. But they just got it figured out at the beginning of 2024
Epicđ„
Thank you!!
Hey man, great film. Gorgeous photography! Iâm so envious of that trip!
Iâve spent some time out in BC and Alberta. So epic. The mountains and rain forests are mind boggling. Did some diving on the coast and loved it. Iâd like to go to Yukon and Alaska someday. That would be very special.
The state of the fisheries and the effects of global warming are very disturbing though. Saw it myself.
My dream was to make it to Auyuittuq National Park on Baffin Island. Mount Thor is there. Thatâs not the easiest trip though.
Thanks so much! That's really neat you have spent some time in BC and Alberta. Epic area indeed. Keep the dream alive! You'll make it to Alaska :D
çŸéșç
I'll be going to Alaska next July!! We'll be going for a week! Thank you so much for posting this GREAT video!! It's my hopes and dreams to move up to Alaska someday! Keep up the AMAZING work! You have a new subscriber. Much respect and support from Yuma, AZ. đđ
Thanks so much for watching and for the wonderful feedback! Gives me a lot of inspiration to keep making films. Canât wait for you to go to Alaska as well. Iâd love to hear about it afterwards!
@@BradySkye I'd love to stay in touch with ya! I'll be binge watching more of your video's! I don't have any social media.. I can shoot ya an email!
@@ryanmoeller3308 You are doing it right to not have social media. Keeps you in the moment and savoring every moment of life. Keep in touch.
@@BradySkye I sure will! If you ever come to Arizona, let me know! đđ
Your channel deserves so many more views. Such great content man keep it up!
I appreciate that! Glad you're a part of the journey! :D
bgs banget bahagianya kalau bisa sampai sana
Love you to all people godbless Amen
Love to all indeed. đđœ
Too funny . I just discovered your channel & commented on your Belize trip , Belize is where I currently live . Oddly enough the next video on your list Iâm watching mentions William Seward . When I was growing up the rear parking lot of my fatherâs restaurant in Florida NY.had a barn , that is the very barn where William Seward was born on may 16th 1801 , he purchased Alaska for a penny an acre in 1867 after his term as Secretary of State under president Lincoln in 1865 , when Seward was fatally attacked & lived while president Lincoln was killed . I didnât find this out in school , I found out from a plaque in front of our restaurant lol đ
Oh wow! How about that haha. I donât know if you can tell but I am a big fan of history and was born too late. Thanks for sharing all of that and watching my film!
Yet another top drawer video, Brady. Your professionalism shines through in every scene.
The editing is so good, it could easily be mistaken for the BBC. Not biased mind even though, you and your lovely wife did a fantastic video of my home place - Ireland, and you also come from St Augustine, where my father lived for 20 years.
Keep soaring high lovely people
I am honored to hear this. I spent a lot of time on it and it sounds like it was worth it! We clearly have a lot in common with a shared love for Ireland and St. Augustine. Hope to run into you one day. Thanks a million!
Stunning production. Loved the interviews with the locals, and the cinematography. What a place!
The interviews are my favorite as well. You can't beat that local perspective. Thank you very much for the very kind words all around!
I love the conclusion edit with the ulu and salmon making a cameo appearance. You've sold me on Alaska! Props to you on this movie...it really felt like a documentary and a vlog at the same time!
Awesome to hear that! Thank you so much! If you end up going to Alaska I would love to hear about your experience.
Hiya I was wondering have u ever visited Thailand đčđ its were i was born its such a beautiful place đ great vids tho đ
Thailand is at the top of my list! When I go to Thailand, I will go for at least a month.
What a great video! Iâm a single dad and have been wanting to take my two children to Alaska. In those small towns, are the pubs/bars/food establishments 21 and over or can children come in to enjoy the food as well? Thanks.
Thanks! You should be fine with the kiddos most everywhere in Alaska yes. It is very family friendly.
Wondering what time of year this was filmed?
What time of the year was this?
End of August
..a good well rounded video of the local region, but lacks depth where living here full time for more than 65 years might portray to a flash-in-the-pan instant visitor one may discover shopping in Anchorage Walmart, in route to their dream vacation by bus to Denali Park; from Europe..
Where I've lived here most times, getting water in winter is a problem and wells are impractical, costly and deep; to just get salt water, more often than not! An nearest neighbor is usually 20 miles away, who has a good spring that does not freeze due to better designed water box for subzero deep freeze reality; the other side of global warming reality I've seen since 1960, and witness ancient ice fields evaporate due to very changed weather factors across all former seasonal boundaries.. Hatchery fish restocked streams or for derby uses, are often smaller than wild runs of prior seasons, as other factors also change. And I still haul water in a small town, but that is being impacted by development by those who have no idea of how they impact longer term survival.. I grew up in east Kenai Mts near Seward, before 1964 AK EQ and helped clean oily beaches from 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill disaster; I kept finding oil, so I was told I had completed my term of employment. The spill cleanup was said to be done at least five times; but still I could find crude oil, layered in tidal rolls on the Kenai Fjords Nat'l Park beaches near Homer, out from Seward. I'm still here.. But I don't walk on those beaches anymore.

Beautiful edit Brady! Born and raised in Anchorage, nice job covering it.
Honored to hear that from a local. Thanks for joining in!

HOW MUCH ????............................... WE WANT TO KNOW.... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How much money did it cost? Not as much as you would think. We got super cheap airfare which is why we ended up there. I think it was only $300 round trip per person during this time of covid. Also we stayed for 5-6 nights free for trading some advertising with some of the hotels.
