  • The Stewart Cassiar Highway is the northernmost highway in British Columbia and one of the two main route used to travel to Alaska from the United States. We drove the Stewart- Cassiar Highway on the way down from Alaska and had a great time on this remote and stunning drive. Let us know what you think in the comments!

    What a mesmerizing video, from start to finish. You ALWAYS capture the beauty, and attractions of the places you visit, and give us so many details, and highlights, Josh. Pops is a great, "co-pilot". Thank you both, so much.
    You're TOPS. 🛣 🏞 🌲👏🏻🤠👏🏻

    We spent two months exploring BC last summer and I have say the Salmon Glacier was our favorite place. Highly suggest going back one day. Any two wheel car/truck with good tires could do it. Thank you for the great places you take us! We learn so much from your trips!

    Wow! You took great video documenting our day! We were the Cougar 5th wheel pulled by silver F250 from Colorado. Think you captured us at least 5 times. Some friends told us to watch this!! 🤣

    Those waterfalls... wow, I've no words to describe, stunning doesn't seem to do it justice... maybe majestic!

    I've been meaning to go to Canada someday and someone I met out west had recommended British Columbia. Your video shows how right he was!

    So glad you had a wonderful time on the Stewart-Cassiar Highway! It has some spectacular scenery and a very different vibe than the Alcan. And you're totally right that the turn-off toward Stewart is one of the most incredible roads anywhere! We were mesmerized by all the huge waterfalls, rushing rapids, glaciers, and sharp mountain peaks!

    The Glacier outside Hyder is absolutely amazing. You have to go back!

    Loved this! We loved our trip to Alaska, but the highlight for us was traveling Canada. I loved the campgrounds, the lakes, the rivers and the Canadians were wonderful! I need to go back. I used ‘“The Milepost” as well. Great resource.

    We were there in 2013. We had lots of bear enroute. We remember seeing a river within 10 minutes of leaving Dease lake. Bear glacier was more beautiful and probably 10 meters longer. (seems to have retracted over the years) We missed the Salmon glacier for the same reason.

    I was excited to see this video. I spent 3 days in Stewart/ Hyder back in the 80's so it was nice to see what it looks like now.

    I've only been to Alaska once in my life, and that was when I stayed the night in Hyder to renew my work visa. When I stepped out of the truck, it was so calm and quiet, I've never experienced a place so peaceful. It would be a dream come true to live in Alaska.

    Kind of off topic, but watching the salmon clips in your video really got my cat's attention lol! I've never seen him behave like he did when he caught a glimpse of the fish! Thank you for the videos of you and your families trips. I love seeing all the places I have wanted to visit someday.

    Great video as always. I went to Alaska with my Pops too… Unfortunately, it was in an Urn. It was the only state he had not been to while he was alive. We drove down in mid-Sept 2019 and the road was practically rolling up behind us and the fall colors and Northern Lights were spectacular

    @2011woodlands Před 9 měsíci

    It would probably be a good idea to carry a extra 5 gallon or two gas cans, especially if you are driving a gas / diesel guzzling engine, in the winter you will have longer drive times and consume more fuel.

  • @stanw909
    @stanw909 Před 9 měsíci

    There are virtually no pull offs in case of breaking down. That was a little disconcerting ,but we thought it was very beautiful.

    Hey! Sorry if I missed it, but when did you guys go? I am thinking of going in mid may but I am worried the roads will be bad. Also, did you guys get hotels ahead of time, or do you think it's a safe bet to just stop on the way and get stuff as I get tired? Thank you!
    Thank you :)

    • @ThroughMyLens
      @ThroughMyLens  Před 5 měsíci

      We went in August, and I actually grabbed the two hotels the day before. ALCAN is much busy than Stewart-Cassiar is for sure.

    • @sallymayer7875
      @sallymayer7875 Před 2 měsíci

      We’re heading north on it tomorrow because the AlCan is closed due to a fire in Fort Nelson. No snow/ice problems but having hotel problems since no one can go up the AlCan
