- After weeks of rain and clouds, we head to Denali National Park in hopes of a glimpse of Denali in all her glory. Even though the forecast doesn't look promising, our hopes are high for this trip to the heart of Alaska.

Congrats, you just hit 67,000 :-)
Found your channel about 2 weeks ago and have been doing so on every video I've watched since 👍
Kevin Congratulations ! on finding the piece of Gold . Did any one else in the group find any Gold ? How long are ya's staying in Alaska for ? If you go to Juneau go on a whale watch in a jet powered boat . The boat doesn't have any propellers that will hurt the sea life then in the afternoon tly on a helicopter & get out and walk around on a glacier . I did get to do it because the bad morning fog never lifter so the excursion was canceled I was quite disappointed to say the least . I had heard that it's something that you will never forget for the rest of your life . In Ketchican I flew on a sea plane through the Misty Fjords from the harbor dock . During the flight the pilot landed the sea plane in a mountain top lake & he got out & stood on one of the pontoons & ate his lunch . I got out also & took a lot of pictures . Taking off from the I was stting up front in the right seat & the plane got real close to the end of the lake & the plane finally lifted high enough to take off & clear the tree tops . I caught it all on my SONY 8MM camcorder that I had with me at the time . It bit the dust decades ago hitting the lense in my hotel room floor in Barcelona before going down to breakfast. It was the day the group was to transfer to the cruise ship to take a 10 day Trans Atlantic cruise to Miami . I was quite upset by it to say the least . Luckily I had a lot of film with me . I never got it repaired because I was told that it might not ever work or work correctly again so I didn't want to waste my money .
Were the people friendly that were on the bus ?
I was grinning ear to ear watching Caroline being sworn in. So adorable!
She loved it!
Amazing day. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Congrats to the new junior ranger. That was very cute.
Thanks!
My favorite of all of your videos I have seen yet. Thank you!
Thanks for riding along!
Great, Great, Great, wonderful video. Love seeing all the wildlife
Glad you enjoyed it!
Honestly one of the best videos yet. BREATHTAKING views and that is even from a computer screen!! Such an amazing video, so very touching. What a beautiful life and family, thank you guys for these videos!
Thanks so much! (Your username cracks me up BTW... I keep seeing the video, lol)
@@LifestyleOverland YES!! No one gets that reference you just made my day haha
so cool for Caroline for becoming anew junior ranger, i want to wear the badge also
She loved it! It's a great program!
Congratulations Caroline! Your right this will be hard to top WOW!
Definitely one of our most memorable adventures!
She has the best parents in the world ❤️.
Seeing your daughter swore in as a national ranger just melted my heart. I too have little girls. She is your daughters age too. You guys are doing it right! She'a taking in all the beauty the world has to offer. Will build such character make her so smart. Very impressive hand writing skills. Mama appears to be keeping her caught up in her schooling while living on the road. Great job! I admire you guys.
We were just commenting at how it has improved even since this video. She's got a steady hand!. Thanks for watching!
Just lying around the house, all day as the pollen has done its thing to me. Then, I thought I heard Kevin say "Come on...get in the bus! " I open my computer and there was video from y'all. Sure glad I went along for the ride. Oh, and what a ride it was! Tell Caroline that she is the BEST Junior Ranger I ever saw.....also the only one I ever saw. I've had days that end with a cherry on top. You had a day that ended with GOLD on top. Oh, those colors. This has so touched my heart. Stay safe. To travel is to live!
I know what you mean by the pollen! It can be crippling! I have to stay on Claritin D! Thanks for watching and for riding along!
Love seeing the northern lights. Glad i live in an area that gets to experience them. Glad you guys got to experience it
Thanks for watching! We were so amazed!
Kevin, Sarah, and Caroline you are a very lucky family. I have followed you on this journey from episode 1 and it is inspirational to see you grow as a family and to see through your eyes the wonders of our North American continent. This episode was particularly poignant watching Caroline earn her Junior Ranger badge, watching Kevin find gold, and listening to the commentary during the show of the Aurora Borealis. The excitement in Kevin’s voice walking back to camp was great and clearly genuine. Keep up the great work. I can’t wait to see what is next.
So glad you've enjoyed our story! Thanks for riding along through ever episode!
What a beautiful sight to see. I love it...❤️
Thanks for watching!
one of your best so far..great day indeed
Thanks!
I can't than you enough for your series of videos. I've travelled up north twice from the Ohio valley in my TJ Wrangler 2001 and 2002. The first time I ran out if time when I reached Whitehorse. The second I made it to Fairbanks, Denali, Seward, and Valdez. As you see by the city names I didn't much leave the road network. I've always wanted to return with more time to explore. Your videos have allowed me to rekindle my love for the north country and just setting off to see what I could see. Hopefully travel restrictions will be lifted so I can head north late this summer. If not, I can just enjoy more of these videos. Thanks again.
Looks like a bus ride worth taking! Breathtaking!
It really was!
Amazing how pretty the world is in places where people are not allowed to mess it up. We need more parks like that.
I have to say, the idea of scheduled tours on buses isn't a bad idea with the issues we're seeing these days. Even a permit for National Forest use isn't a bad idea where you have to watch a training video on taking care of the forest before entering. Until then, we are doing our best to lead by example and clean up behind the rest.
"believe me" is the perfect thyme song from you to Sarah. She is awesome! Pilot, cook, mom, teacher, wife and best friend. What a blessing!
Beautiful coverage& pictures.
Thanks, Spencer!
First off, congratulations to Caroline on becoming a youth Ranger! She had the perfect day for a ranger lifestyle. Enchanting video with beautiful views and a lot of sighting of wildlife. Thanks for sharing!!!😍🇨🇦
Thanks, Carla! Glad you enjoyed it!
Congratulations Ranger Caroline,,,A big Salute to you !!! Amazing footage of the Mountains and wild life guys ! I wish your video`s were longer, i could literally watch these all day, that`s how good they are ! Cheers !
Thanks so much for the support, Bryan!
How many words are there for AWESOME! You are an awesome family! I enjoyed every moment of this video. Phenomenal photography., all the wildlife and there just are no words for how adorable Caroline is. Thank you for sharing your adventures!
WOW! Denali opened up and rolled out the red carpet for you all! Thanks for sharing this with us.
She really did! Thanks for riding along!
I have been enjoying your videos for a while this is brilliant I especially loved your enthusiasm & your honour of this wonderful world. Thank you for sharing your family & your adventures with us. Your family have blessed me so much. I making plans to see the country thanks to you.
Thanks for riding along, Tom!
That was one of the best videos yet. Absolutely amazing, going through all that rain looks to be well worth it. What a beautiful day.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
I have been watching you and your wonderful family for a very long time. I am so envious of you traveling around the world while I struggle trying to figure out how I am going to retire. I had tears in my eyes watching Caroline get her Ranger badge. “I” was so proud of her (reminds me of my granddaughter but Caroline is older) so I can only imagine how you two parents felt. Keep on keeping on, I love your travels and adventures. I get to work every morning at 4:00 am and look to see if you have a new video yet. I have two monitors so watch and listen to your videos while I work. 👍
We have traveled to AK many times over the last 25 years. Plane and now RV. It never gets old. You just have to figure out that work is over rated. I retired at age 53, it can be done on any budget.
Thanks so much for the support! Watching this adventure through Caroline's eyes has definitely been the best part!
It's so happy to see a total stranger genuinely happy for someone. I am happy for you guys too. wonderful videos, just like I'm traveling too.
You have an incredible gift with how you put these videos together. Amazing. My girls and I are going to watch this video together tomorrow. I want them to be pumped to see Denali when we're there. I stop working when I see you've uploaded, I can't wait till the next one, and the one after that....
Thanks for the feedback! We really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed this one!
Kevin your music game is always on point really adds another layer to the videos
The utter awe in her voice.......It floored me to years ago.
Has to be seen in person to really feel it... it's simply jaw-dropping...
Watching your Alaska videos has been a pleasure. I've discovered that I'm homesick for Alaska and am now working to go back. Thank you for bringing the beauty of my favorite place on earth to the public with such skill.
So glad we were able to represent Alaska in a way that did it justice to ex-Alaskan's. Hope you make it back up there soon!
Congratulations Junior Ranger! Looked like your Denali trip was as good as it gets. Then to top it off with some northern lights? The footage you captured was just incredible.I have no words!
It really was one of the most memorable parts of the adventure!

As a grandfather of eight there is nothing any sweeter in this life than to see the world with a different light thru the eyes of a child. Thanks guys.
What a amazing video, your best ever!
Thanks so much!
Your best production. What a great opportunity you are providing to Caroline. Congrats Caroline for working hard and earning your Jr. Ranger badge and designation. Keep up the fantastic work all!!! 👌👍⛺️😊
Thanks so much, Douglas!
One of the best Alaskan videos I've seen. What an amazing trip! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks, Steve! Glad you liked it!
Incredible video, like many have said, this is one of the best. And congrats to Caroline! I'll have to look into that program for my little explorers too.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Best Denali video I've ever seen! How blessed you were to experience such a beautiful place. Congrats on your gold find and Caroline's Junior Ranger achievement!
Thanks so much!
Incredible moment at. 4:16.. the lyrics "you return to to who you were when you were young..." just as that older fellow turns and smiles. Great stuff guys.
What an amazing day!! I’m so glad it worked that way for y’all!!
Wow! Sooooo cute, so stunning... Caroline, the wolfes, the gold... You couldn't get the smile out of your faces on your way back to the camper. I know this situation exactly myself. Life is great! Thanks for sharing your life with the public!
What a great adventure..Caroline is in good hands..Awesome parents..best of luck in your travels.
Thanks so much, Robert!
I've lived in Alaska my whole life and have never spent this much time in Denali.
My daughter will be 3 in May. Not sure she's quite up to the task of becoming a Jr. Ranger, but it's definitely something I absolutely will do when she's old enough.
I can't thank you guys enough for these videos. It's freaking awesome to see what is out there in the state I currently live in. It's hard to do these things while working full time and what not.
Glad you guys had fun!! I hope you all come back again someday soon! I'd love to meet you guys and introduce you to my family!!
We really appreciate the encouragement! Hopefully we will return!
Greetings from St. Louis! What an absolutely amazing journey so far. My wife and I have binge-watched the whole thing over the last two days and can't wait for more. Our family has never been camping but that is changing this summer thanks to you all. Safe travels and thank you for sharing your journey!
Thanks for the support! Glad we could inspire you!
What a wonderful way to teach your child. I started following you guys tonight. You took me to places I’ll probably never see. Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us. I feel like I’m there with you guys. Take care and keep searching for your adventures. She’s going to remember this experience the rest of her life. You’re great parents!!!❤️
Incredible! I've ridden the bus twice, years apart, and never have seen that much wildlife. And then you get to followup with an incredible aurora display.
I always click the like button for your videos, but there really should be a “love” button as i find them so enjoyable.
Really appreciate the support!
Seriously. I teared up when Caroline was getting her Junior Ranger Badge! Too cool!
With all the wild life then the Aurora at the end...yeah. The perfect day indeed.
So glad I subbed your channel. :)
So glad you enjoyed that one!
While riding a section of the Arizona Trail recently, a hiker said to me "... what a good life". A little while later I thought of your family. Live Life.
Thanks for thinking of us!
Best episode yet and I have watched them all!
That's awesome! Thanks for following along!
Thank you so much for this episode! This is the best one so far. The scenery was breathtaking and I can only imagine what it must have been like for your wonderful family to actually be there. Oh and tell little Caroline congratulations on becoming a junior ranger.
Thanks so much! Will do!
Really excellent production you guys made....brought a tear to my eye. Loved there for a couple of years and it was magical! Glad your enjoying your lives! Memories for the rest of your life!
My best wishes for the lovely junior Ranger❤️
She will be amazing explorer for sure 🙏🏻💐
Love again from Nepal 🇳🇵
I really enjoy your editing, narration and musical selections. The way you add in the animals and natural elements really helps to tie everything together and makes a great video to watch. Nice job! & great job Miss. Junior Ranger!!
Incredible guys... I'm speechless. Forget it, I'm packing up right now and headed to Denali!
Sir William Goes Speaking of which, we need to plan a trip and meetup sometime this Spring / Summer!
Wow what an experience, well worth the early start. Hi five to Caroline, Denali junior ranger, congratulations on your rangership. Can’t wait to see the next installment.
Thanks so much, Paul!
I was honestly moved to tears by the beauty of this video. Glory to God. Thank you for sharing.
We watching!! 🥰
Thanks, Cesar!
I've been watching your videos since you were living in New Mexico. This one ranks up there as one of the best that has been posted.
Wow! Thanks for sticking with us so long! Glad you enjoyed this one!
The way you edited that Aurora sequence was amazing! Hearing the sounds of your reactions made it feel so much more real rather than just footage set to music. Beautiful episode!
Your joy and love for your adventures brings tears to my eyes. I have always wanted to drive up to Alaska but have never had the guts as a single female. However, you’re teaching me that following my inner heart is all that matters. Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey. I just discovered your channel!
You all inspire me to get out and see all I can see!
Too much Caroline cuteness 😍
Right?! She's the star!
EPIC!!!!!! Great job to both you and the Mrs. and your very special Junior Ranger.
Glad you liked it!
Some city folk never see stars, even less are the Northern Lights. Mother Nature is beyond beautiful.
We were so blessed to get to see them!
She was so cute reciting the pledge to be a junior ranger. Love your videos
She really was! We were so proud!
THAT was amazing. It's hard to believe those lights are real.
Our minds were blown! So incredible!
my face hurts from smiling so big as Caroline became a Junior Ranger. What a wonderful program! Thanks for these videos. I don't think I'll ever be able to go camping in Alaska, but it's a bucket list item. :) Thanks for taking us along with you.
My gosh! What a day! Capping it off with such a spectacular array of aurora borealis, was simply icing on the cake. Honestly, watching that display that God provides, and listening to your reaction, just brought tears to my eyes - seriously. Thanks so much for sharing this with us.
Steve
Wow! Words can’t describe what an awesome day that was. Thanks for sharing! See you in Flagstaff.
Glad you enjoyed it! Seeya soon!
Guys what a day! Something you will never forget and to get the incredible video you got congrats all around. The Boss and I are planning to take that bus trip later this summer. If is anywhere close to you experience it will be something we will never forget too. Great job and still be safe out there.
Thanks so much!!
That was one of the best videos thus far. So beautiful and amazing. And to top it off, got to watch Caroline do her oath! So awesome!!! Congrats Caroline.
Definitely one of our favorites too! Thanks for watching!
Your BEST episode of season 1! Just WOW! Your daughter taking the junior ranger pledge...PRICELESS! The wildlife...Mt. Denali....found gold...northern lights...incredible guys!
Great video guys, your edits are top notch
Thanks for the feedback! We appreciate it!
So Awesome. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with so many.
Thanks for the support, Tom!
Congratulations Jr. Ranger Caroline - what a great program. What an amazing experience Thanks for sharing your amazing photography skills with us.
Thanks so much Christina!
One of my bucket list in a year or 2 to visit that place via road trip 👌. Cheers to your whole family for sharing your journey. Take care and God bless
It is one incredible place!
Wow wow wow 🤩
Absolutely STUNNING 😍
Your videos of Denali Peak from the Bus Tour is probably the best I have seen yet. You probably saw every single wild animal in the park but to get a clear view of Denali like that is literally a LOTTERY WIN 🏆
This has me so excited for my trip next year; thank you 🙏
Congrats to our cutest little ranger Caroline 😘
From my perspective if I had gone through all that y'all went through to get to this day, it would have been all worth it for the day you had. WOW! I'm so happy for all of you to have that experience AND I am honored that you chose to share it with us. Thank You!
It was worth all the nasty weather to land in Denali on this day!
"Epic" doesn't even do it justice. That day will be hard to beat. Don't they say only 30% of people actually see Mt. Denali? You were blessed, awesome video. Safe travels y'all.
Truly an incredible day! Yes, 30% and only 3% see wolves!
It gets even better when it's about -50*F in the middle of the winter. Watching the Northern Lights is something I've done my whole life. Good ol North Pole, Alaska 👍
Do you know Bert & Jessica Somers that live in North Pole , Alaska ? I'm one their YOU TUBE Channel Subscribers ?
We can't wait to go back in the winter!
@@bobshaw4063 if their daughter is Heidi, AKA BuffBunny on CZcams, yes I know that family.
Small world 😉
@@LifestyleOverland Make sure your vehicles engine is winterized. Block heater, oil pan and transmission pan heaters, and a trickle charger for the battery(s). It's a must have up here!!
@@ridingwiththereids I think Bert has a sister named Heidi she has blond hair & I think she lives in Texas . I think Bert has lived in Alaska all his life . He has his own business installing heat control valves etc . His wifes mother is in the Air Force & is stationed @ Eilson Air Force Base , Alaska .
You truly live a blessed life. Take in every moment, for when it's time for us to leave this world, all we take with us are our memories...
We really do! Thanks so much for the support!
Beautiful trip! The beautiful little girl reminds me of my grand-daughter.
Thanks, Seth!
Love all of your videos, and my hubby and I look forward to each Thursday for your newest one. I have to agree with others: this was my fav so far. All the best to your family.
Thanks so much, Michelle!
Ahhh....always puts a smile on my face to see just how amazed people are when they first see the Northern Lights. :) Living in the Yukon, I see them all the time (over 40 years now)...that said...they STILL AMAZE ME! :) I'm so lucky to live here...man.... Thanks for showing your joy. :)
great video work guys. I can tell you love each other, it shows in every video, and I love that message most of all. Society forces norms on us, and breaking those norms, doing what feels best, that is all too rare these days. Keep up with the great videos, hope to meet you on the trails
Thanks so much for the support!
Thank you for taking me along.
Thanks for riding along!
You have wealth beyond measure my friend! To share such wonderful travels with those two beauties, what else could you ask for. Thanks for sharing these wonderful videos. Makes me so happy and jealous at the same time. Safe travels
Yay!!! Finally you made it & saw the Aurora! Amazing! So awesome you got a chance to do that with your family! Hats off to the new Jr. Ranger & the rest of the crew! :-) Such an inspiration you all are!
Thanks so much!
I miss Alaska so much. Thank you for all these great videos you are producing on The Last Frontier.
Denali scenery looked like a “best of” documentary that someone spent a year filming. OMG!!!! You saw it all in one day. BTW, Caroline is such a wonderful young lady.
that's awesome you guys!! been following your channel for past 2 years!! congratulations caroline on becoming a junior ranger! must be an epic once in a lifetime experience to see the aurora borealis. hopefully one day, my family of five will meet you on the road! keep up the good work, keep exploring, and safe travels you guys!
Wow! Thanks for sticking with us so long! That's awesome!
Been watching since episode one. What an adventure
Wow! Thanks for riding along with us the whole way!
I have a friend who works in Denali and I have always been jealous of it but after this video... I have to go see it! How lucky to have a clear view of the mountain as well! Happy for you all and thank you for the reply
Thanks for continuing to share your travel experiences with us!
Good work showcasing Denali’s beauty. That Junior Ranger was sleeping on the job though. The closing vision was particularly nice.
Haha, that' 5:30 wake up call had her tired!
OMG.....That aurora borealis was absolutely spectacular. never seen one like that before...😀 And Denali WOW.
It absolutely blew our minds!
This was my most favorite video!!! The wildlife, phenomenal views of Denali and the Night sky and y’all’s reaction to what you saw was awesome!!! What a spectacular day!! Congratulations to Caroline for becoming a junior ranger. I hope you got still pictures of those views. I’d print them and hang them in my house. Well, your next house. Haha!
I was stationed in Alaska for 6 years and never saw a single bear for some reason, got to say, I'm a little jealous. Very beautiful episode with a perfect ending.
Wow! That's crazy!
One of our most special trips was an 8 passenger flight up the range and around Denali. I'll never forget it. The weather was ideal!
