How many miles on your brisket?
CONGRATS!๐ Iโm so excited for you both! Enjoy your time in Alaska.โบ๏ธ I also canโt believe all the animals you saw – especially the wolf!! So so cool!!
If you need a place to plug in and take a shower and do some wash in Anchorage let me know.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this video and the previous one (driving through the Yukon). We watched the Yukon one while having dinner and then the โAlaskaโ one while having lunch. lol. The mountains and animals were amazing! You have me continually adding to my bucket list. But this one is not starting out on the bottom, itโs coming in close to the top of the list! You were so funny dancing in front of the Alaska sign and there was Kona, just hanging in there wondering what โmom and dadโ were doing!!! Canโt wait for the coming videos!!
Good to see your videos. You are so great and funny. Donยดt miss that joy, I share with you the excitement to see such a wonderful places. I visited Alaska some years ago and definitively itยดs one the best places I have visited ever. Enjoy!! Here I will be looking for more A+K videos
Very nicely done fun !!! Thank you for all your hard work great job !!!
Super cool! We enjoyed the hikes with you! Ok, so weโve had the pie multiple times since weโve been too Capitol Reef a few times; now weโll do the dogs when we make it to Denali (whenever that will be!!!). Thanks for the great video; enjoyed it over lunch! LOL. And we think Kona got jealous because she probably smelled the sled dogs on you!
Congrats guys, so happy for yall ๐ญ
Christmas in July. So cute and amazing seeing Kathryn's reaction to the sign. Big hug to Alaska. Congrats on the Journey and now, Adventures!
WOLF!!!! Iโm still waiting to see my first one. That was AWESOME!
Such amazing and beautiful land! Congrats on making it to Alaska! Thank you for documenting your journey for us. ๐
Your joy is incredible!! I'm so happy for you guys and thrilled to see what adventures you'll share with us.
Great video. When we were there we saw Denali as well and were told how rare it was for visitors. Hope you get to see more wildlife there, just not on the trails! We saw a momma grizzly with 2 cubs frolicking in a field, so cute! The wildlife viewing there is incredible. Looking forward to your next installment!
Congratulations! We love you channel and videos. My wife and I also loved the Channel Islands, which we checked off our list of NP visited in March 2022.
Yay A+K+K! Oh my goodness those wildlife sightings were ah-mazing! A wolf! A momma and baby moose! A grizzly! Wow. Some day I would like to see a wolf in the Wild.
Another great Episode! Thanks
It looks like they are having fun and that's what counts
5 months?! So wild! Itโs been so fun following along. Thanks for bringing us with you. Ps. Lol at the rejected high five. Poor Adam ๐
I believe the sheep are Stone instead of Bighorn.
Hey guys…just discovered your channel and few weeks back and enjoying the 'Journey to Alaska' series, although since we were in Alaska in June…yes June!!…we're also cheating ahead to stay current and maybe see what we missed since we only had two weeks there… At some point we want to make the drive from our home in Tennessee and take in a lot along the way. We'll be taking notes from your videos. Thanks much and stay in the fairway…
I have lived in Alaska for 2 years and haven't seen half of the animals you've seen coming in to Alaska. Just amazing! ๐ I need to get out more.
