- Join us as we drive the Alaska Highway, a 1,400 mile road that stretches from Dawson Creek, British Columbia, through the Yukon and ending in Delta Junction, Alaska. On our road trip to Alaska, we pass some of the most epic landscapes in North America, have a few close animal encounters, and make some stops that are worth adding to your bucketlist.

"Black" bears can be different colours, from black through brown to cinnamon. A "Brown" bear is a variety of grizzly. Looking forward to your next video!
I don't want to spoil it too much, but some grizzly bears may make an appearance in the next video! Stay tuned. ☺️
Cinnamon Bears are a sub species of the Black Bear. There is also an extremely rare sub species of Black bears, The Kermode Bear, which have white fur. Cinnamon Bears and Grizzlies have the same colouring but Grizzlies have big hump above the shoulders.
Wow, that really fascinating. Especially that there's black bears with white fur!! Thanks for all the facts.
YAY. YT finally recommended you and I hopped right on.
I follow lots of traveling couples and you two vibe right away.
I'm so looking forward to watching your past travels and woo-hoo I have a new travelog to explore.
Channels like yours really help armchair travelers like myself🥰
Thank you so much for all the kind words. Reading this just made our day. We really appreciate you watching our videos ☺️
Thanks so much to everyone that's watched our adventures north to the arctic circle! We really appreciate you!! If you enjoyed this video, please click the like button and don't forget to subscribe. It really helps our channel grow!
Such a cool trip! It’s on our list, but in a few years.
We can't believe we're finally here after years of planning! Don't blink; you'll be in Alaska before you know it!
Any Alaskan destinations on your bucket list?
@@JustinandJess nothing on “the list” yet. Sadly the pre-list includes a new truck - ha ha!
That's an expensive pre-list item 🤣
Just a heads up. When driving through sketchy weather and road conditions, NEVER use your cruise control.
thanks for the heads up (and for watching)!
I thought that too. Great advice👍
16:40 love the "Fern Gully" feeling you experienced.
I also appreciate you sharing your research. The Milepost is very comprehensive but maybe not as all-encompassing as it used to be. Things change so fast now-a-days. Geeze, I sound old eh?
(P.S. next video I promise to take notes and limit myself to one comment at the end, I'm just a lil buzzy right now☺🌻🐝)
Definitely leave as many comments as you want! In fact, I think it helps the CZcams algorithm push out our videos to more people 🤣
@@JustinandJess Thank you. I know that as well, but some ppl are all "yikes, what a jabberjaws".
I love watching my fave YTers grow and share. I'm confined to my chair and YT is kinda my lifeline.
Loves🌻🐝
P.S. Alaska is wonderful. My home for over 40 years🥰
I'm so glad we could share some of our adventures with you. Stay tuned for our next video where we arrive in Alaska. We've been here for a little bit now and it is such a lovely place. Thanks for watching!
@@JustinandJess Welcome to perhaps the only state that's not sweltering this year!
We've had some hot days, it almost hit 80 at my house one day. I for one thrive in 60s, and rain is always a plus coz of wildfire danger.🌻🐝
Actually the fire fighters suit is not exactly correct. That’s an ARFF (aircraft rescue fire fighting) proximity suit. Based on that engine in the video the protective gear would have been leather and rubber and wool. Not sure if they had an airport there 😂
See, Jess! THAT'S why I was so confused at 01:30! Subconsciously, I must have known it was an ARFF suit and was just thrown off 🤣🤣🤣

(p.s. thanks for setting the record straight Salty Medic)
Bear X-ing!
SO. MANY. BEARS. They DO exist!!
I watched a video one time about several people that were killed by a Grizzley at Laird hot springs right on the board walk . terrifying . Good Luck.
I thought it was a black bear that killed one person. Either way, that's scary. Fortunately, that was over 25 years. A good reminder to always bring bear spray with you in the Canadian wilderness.
Is this part of your Key West to Arctic trip? I see a Day 1. Also, are you traveling with your dogs now?
Hey! Yes this is part of our trip up to the Artic circle. We actually just published Part 2 of this video 👇 czcams.com/video/EwMUDdNfMew/video.html
Unfortunately, our senior pups both passed away in the last couple years 😔.
Thanks for watching our videos and following our adventures! 🙏
Wow! Justin won the defined calves lottery. It’s mile blowing how nothing is between Fort Nelson and Liard Hotsprings. Starlink would be great.
🤣🤣 we hike up a lot of mountains for our job, so that helps! Now if only hiking could get rid of my (Justin here) love-handels seen in the hot tub scene 😬
@@JustinandJess you look fine. More to love. ( I felt thin and in shape when I was there 😵💫🤫😬) Calves are genetic🎁. I went up to the hot springs last year. Didn’t make it to the falls. I’m a truck driver and THAT was a long drive! I dream of a trip to Alaska. Watched a few other videos. I’ll keep watching. I like the bloopers. Have you watched Epic family road trip when they went to Tuk? Loved it. Or Living simple Alaska(not travel)? Love those couples. Carol said you could take a small trailer to Tuk… update when YOU Guys do it. 🍻
I'll check out those other channels; thanks for the recommendations! Stay tuned for our drive up to Tuk at the end of the summer. We've got a lot of adventures scheduled before then too! And thanks for watching our videos... that means the world to us!

Hot springs looks baller.
They were sooooooo nice! We could have spent the whole day there. 😌
Hello and going to do an Alaska trip. Do we need a passport to drive the Alaska highway. What is the best month to leave Ohio . We plan on moving slow.
Hey thanks for watching! Yes you will need a passport to cross into Canada and then again into Alaska. We like to travel slow too. If we were starting in Ohio, we would probably leave early May (any earlier, and the temperatures in the northern states would probably be subfreezing). You could take about 4 to 6 weeks to make it to British Columbia and the temperature should be pretty lovely in mid-June. We took about 10 days to drive the Alaska highway North, but honestly, I would have preferred to have even more time to relax and stay at campgrounds along the way. There's so much to see and we never feel like we had enough time.
@@JustinandJess thanks so much for the reply and sooo glad we found you guys. We will be following your adventures
@@JustinandJess I am now watching your previous video and you mention passports at the border crossing
@@Nomadiccamping aww, thanks for following along! We're happy to have you here. 😁
