Your Video is one of the very best videos I have ever seen, I have lived in Alaska for 53 years and traveled all over the Artic by Snow go and Helicopter and Small bush Planes your travels through Historic Yukon Klondike Territory is Amazing I have really enjoyed your accents you a beautiful Family.
This is quite the trip. I love it. Nice to see the boy included. A lot of hard work but a really rewarding trip. God bless. Looking forward to more videos.
Thanks Glenn, it was exactly that, hard work, but actually, that’s kind of how we like it. We made Many great memories. Thanks! We’ve got some fun stuff coming up and are already thinking about an epic snowmobile trip for next year spring break 😊
What a great adventure. We have done the Atlin to Dawson trip for years but on four wheels. Bumpy trails? Moguls are so bad on our mountain trails that we often must go at a snail's pace. No gas at Braeburn at the time? But there are or used to be cinnamon buns. We always stopped there on our yearly trips to the Dempster. We would love to return, but it is a long way, and we are getting tired.
Hey Dave! It’s a beautiful trip by road also. Yep, There are still giant cinnamon buns at Braeburn, but the place has slowly changed over the last 15 years and the service is not so friendly anymore. But hey, one can always just stop in to pick up a cinnamon bun and keep going! Hope you are well, happy new year!
This is a lot of work. I have been hot tenting for 40 years. We also winter camp and ice fish with snow mobiles. We have a number of wall tents but in the last five years have started to use lighter tent setup for winter camping. It is a tent I modified, it is like a tent within a tent some what like an" Artic Oven" tent. It is much lighter to transport( no steel tent poles) and takes less room in the trailboggan's . Neat trip but a lot of work have fun and always adventure.
Interesting. Yes, after a long and hard day out, it was an extra challenge for the backs to set up the tent and do firewood. We are seriously thinking about lightening our loads, and the tent is the first thing on the list. We have been eyeing the Esker tents, 13kg for a 12x12 and still breathable canvas to dry stuff out, that sounds amazing. Maybe we will bite the bullet on one later this summer. We are already thinking up a bigger trip for next year 😅
In this episode we prep, we deal with overflow, we handle and bush fix unexpected breakdowns, and share some quality camp life. All in the beautiful scenery of Northern BC and the Yukon
Have a 24 Expedition on order so good to see how capable the 20” skandic was in that overflow/slush. For your hot tent query, I use a Snowtrekker myself and they come larger to fit your crew.
Thanks for the tent recommendation, we will look into the Snowtrekker! Our Skandic is actually a Super wide (24”). The Tundra did not do good on the overflow, we even nicknamed it the ‘overflow magnet’. We are selling it. we will make a video about the reasons why. We ordered a 2024 Skandic wide track for Leandra. Cheers!
@@TheBrientFamily I went back and forth on the expy/skandic choice for the past year. For my region (southern MB/NW ON) the A arms won’t be a problem for where I go. Skandics are super capable machines.
@@TheBrientFamily I had a 600 ACE in a Tundra. Worst slush pig I've ever owned. Went to the 600r etec and would never go back to an ACE unless it was the 900 Turbo.
@@ernieferguson9513 Yes, after this Dawson city series, we have a review coming up on the machine and we are including the reasons why we are selling it.
I really would love to know where you can get some orthos. Peppers woodstoves in your tent. I really would love to find one of those. But I lived in car cross in 2001 of those in our trailer and they worked really good.I would love to have it find another one
