  • In this episode, I explore the mountains of eastern British Columbia, both by Jeep, and on foot, and then cross over into Alberta to experience the Canadian Rockies. I contend with snow, enjoy a luxurious soak, and quest for pizza in Jasper National Park before traveling onward Banff.

    Catching up on these now. I love Banff & it's great seeing it again through your video. I traveled to Banff from the States in my motorhome, but I'd love to repeat the trip driving a Jeep as you have. I'll keep watching your adventures while I work the 9-5, or actually 12's.😎

    I was watching the first half of this video, thinking to myself how you seem to capture solitude...even in the most populated of places. When you acknowledged your loneliness, it struck a chord. I feel that loneliness too, even though I’m surrounded with people.
    There’s worse thing than being alone, like being where you only needed, but not wanted.
    If you ever find your way to TN, I’d be happy to buy you a pizza.....

      One of the best videos yet. As someone who drove a truck for 20 years I can sympathize with your feelings. I was never seeking a relationship like most people but that was mostly because I just didn't want the life most people were living. I would love to share great experiences with someone but I kind of hate people and few people want to do the things I like. So maybe someday, but maybe never. Just wait and see and be ok with whatever happens.

    Hey there! I have questionable hygeane, drive an Overlander jeep and live in a nice temperate location! I like big red tomatoes and stuff them with flair...all I can spare. I've been to 36 countries, speak 3 languages yada yada and I'm pondering driving/hiking through Patagonia someday. My 13 year old son comes with me So, much like a job interview that I just bombed, I'm just putting ...my awkward ...foot forward to say 'hi'! I enjoy your videos, - ...you are inspirational, and keep it up!
    (Just kidding on the questionable hygeane, oh kind people of the world wide web). ;)

  • @ericbrufatto5371
    @ericbrufatto5371 Před 4 lety

    I'm always intrigued by your camera's viewpoint, and how many separate shots go into each video. One shot in this video, looking down on your jeep as your drove by, must have taken a lot of effort to set up. You're a good cameraman/storyteller/director/editor/etc... and in doing your videos, you probably get a lot of exercise! Very well done videos, thank you!

  • @jonmadill9001
    @jonmadill9001 Před 5 lety +2

    The scenery is spectacular, and the filming/photography are top shelf. What I like is the video is almost therapeutic. The noise of the tires on loose rocks, the whine of the gears and the hum of the engine. All done at a low, calming pace.
    The reflection of your jeep in a puddle, and you taking time to enjoy the moment of a snow fall makes this my favorite YT channel.
    Thank you!

    I am very excited that you are able to explore parts of my province (Alberta) before heading south. It's exciting to see some of my favorite places, plus newly discovered ones through your sense of adventure.
    It's probably too late now but buying a yearly federal park pass, will get you unlimited to all national parks across Canada. I'm not sure if you are going to do any exploring in other parts of Canada, but it may be worth looking at.

    Jasper is my favorite park although I haven't been there for many years. Your video took me back to when my children were children. The campground, the sky tram, the town site itself and your comments on Mt. Robson when you first saw it. We walked that trail a number of times. There is a rapids in Mt. Robson park that is the limit to where the salmon can migrate to. From Vancouver, up through Prince George and back down to Mt Robson. Amazing.

    I am so glad that I found your channel. You have kindled a bit of a wanderlust in me. I would like to hit the road and see some of the backwaters of the US and Canada instead of flying over them to get from one city to another. I appreciate how much you share and understand it must be difficult at times. As some have said you are not really alone as we are all watching and rooting for you and enjoying the beauty you are witnessing through your eyes and words. I think we can all identify with some of the things you are struggling with even if we aren't all in your exact situation. Keep up the great work!

      @8654ZuluFoxtrot Před 5 lety

      You do understand this is his “job” right now, right? I agree he’s getting better and better at documenting his travels, but he’s getting sponsored to do all of this. An hour long video? Nah, you wouldn’t have very many people who would want to sit and watch an hour long CZcams video.

    • @dasgoat76
      @dasgoat76 Před 5 lety +6

      @8654 Zulu Foxtrot Actually a lot of people would watch that. A majority of his audience would. And also, they came out with this really innovative feature called the 'pause button', dunno if you have ever heard of it. Sure, he has a couple sponsors but it's not like he's made it to the big-time gravy train yet...so not sure what that comment was about.

    • @8654ZuluFoxtrot
      @8654ZuluFoxtrot Před 5 lety

      I guess you have access to and are currently corresponding with the majority of his audience? Oh wait, you aren't? I guess you've been elected to speak on their behalf then? Oh wait, no one actually knows you? Thought so. Actual CZcams stats show that most people only want to watch things that are 10mins or less on CZcams. Series like this bumps that number up to an average of 20-30mins. Even when people create short films on CZcams they don't do well if they are over 30mins in length. So yeah, my comment wasn't just my personal opinion, it was based on actual CZcams viewer stats and I love Chris' content and I don't want him to make a mistake of creating things that aren't within the attention span of the "majority of his audience".

    Hi Chris wonderful video once again but I have to tell you. After about 6 months of watching your videos I subscribed. Believe it or not I never noticed that I didnt subscribed. Soooo I subscribed today lol. Wanted to tell you all your videos are so very informative. I enjoy watching were you go. I am a Jeep owner so that’s how I found you on internet. I’ve been fishing or specifically Surf Fishing, about 35 years now. Sooooo, now back to present day. You were the first one I ever saw with a roof top tent or a pop up camper on the internet, I was awed! Since that moment I’ve dove in full force on research on roof top tents. I love surf fishing so this would be perfect add to my Jeep when I go fishing which is about once a week for 2 nights. I’m off from work mid-week so this works out perfect for my fishing sport. Since most folks are off weekends it’s a plus also I really never liked sleeping inside the Jeep. I also never wanted to start setting up tents on beach anyways. So I started thinking ROOFTOP tent! I could not afford the Ursa Minor so I thought. (wife plays a big role 😁) So after all my few months of watching you tube videos on rooftop tents and researching the different products. I explained and showed wife and was a go on this project about roof top tents. This stems from from, she hated camping because we had to sleep in a tent on the ground. She really liked camping but the ground sleep did her in about 15 years ago. So now after I showed her the countless videos on pop up tents. She says to me, let’s just go for the Ursa Minor. She shocked me sorta. What a great surprise! I quickly reached for my the phone and met or spoke to John from Ursa Minor. I asked much about the Ursa Minor and he answered all my many questions. So me and my wife decided right there with me on the phone with John that we would put a deposit on the Ursa Minor. This was back in July 2018. We are both very psyched on delivery just around the corner in November 2018. “OK4WD” will be doing the installing of our Ursa Minor. Met a few of the folks that work at OK4WD. All very nice and informative people that know there job. So back to wife. She can’t wait to go camping with me! This has opened up a new freshly paved avenue for us as far as travel. My fishing needs also! Heck she’s coming fishing now! Lol We’ve traveled much in our life, through planes trains and auto mobiles. Stays where with Hotels, resorts, cabins, and all the great amenities that coming with vacationing. But now it’s time to get up close(camping or over-landing) in this wonderful world/country we live in. So in the end I wanted to let you know THANKS for introducing me to the Ursa Minor and of course these wonderful places we will be visiting this coming year all THANKS to your WONDERFUL videos! Eric

    Another great adventure. Was rewatching an older video this am, you had a shot of the odometer. Throw in an updated shot soon so we can see what this trip has been.

    "Face on the Rock" Did anyone else catch the face on the pile of rocks in Banff Central Park (29:35)?
    Chris, The chuckling on the mountain top was so fun to watch and listen to. And like many have posted, the photography / videos and breath taking. From close-ups of pine cones on branches to distant mountain ranges.
    PS...Keep reaching for those tomatoes my friend!
