Silver City was the end of the road back in the early 1920s! Went by boat from there. There was a gold stick that really didn't pan out! The pens were left over from a fox farm operation! It's all privately owned and was going to be restored 50 yrs. ago but that never happened!

[@brandyjanik66]

I just want to thank you for not using foul language in your videos! It so nice that I can watch your videos with my kids! We love going on your beautiful adventures with you!

Canada is a country built on the dreams and hard work of adventurers like yourself. Thank you for continuing the Canadian tradition!

The truck is an International Harvester. They made heavy duty trucks under that name until the 70’s until they dropped the Harvester part. They make heavy duty trucks under the “International” name to this day. One of the coolest vehicles they made was the “Scout”. The chicken wire building very likely for egg laying chickens.

[@jamey48]

Ford use to buy their diesel engines. But now they make their own. My grandfather use to run International school busses.

[@funride58]

You can just google the place and there was a fox farm there.

[@80Malibu]

To be specific, the truck is a 1959 International BC-160 Series, with an unknown wrecker (tow truck) option added on.

[@rhondaburke5700]

Seems to have flooded bringing alot of sentiment into that area.

[@TheShift1313]

And i believe VW now owns the Scout name. I would have loved a scout 2

[@Irie172]

Silver City has lots of history. It was an old Fox farm back in the day as well. Beautiful country.

[@chuckles7524]

That would explain the small pens. 😊 thanks.

[@gwengwen4535]

That explains a lot!! 😅 TY

[@John-yb3qr]

My first time there was in 1966 at the age of 10. We were there with an Airstream caravan for a couple of days. Near the shore of Kluane lake was what I assume was an icehouse since there was saw dust piled in it. While there I swam in those frigid waters (something only a kid would do). Went back with wife and kids in 05, great memories. Thanks for sharing with us

[@Okanaganguy2021]

Me and my wife did this journey in 2012 spent 4 weeks cruising Alaska all the way from Vancouver Island to Dawson city and to Homer Ak it was an adventure of a lifetime!

[@angeschannel73]

Remains of Bear Flats Lodge at Koidern, which operated from 1973 until it closed in 1992

[@docsgearheadgaming2503]

I remember this place as a kid, was amazing back then, amazing now to see how much its deteriorated. All the chicken wire and pens you seen were for the fox's as what you were exploring was a Fox Farm back in the 40's and 50's. I also remember something about a murder on the property, apparently the wife shot the husband in self defense, there's apparently a memorial up on the ridge some where i never did see. If you ever stop by Fort St John (Mile 54 on the Alaska Highway) Coffee is always on and the beers are always cold :) Love the videos man. Wish i could do what you are doing. Safe travels buddy!

[@pat46170]

WOW Dustin!!!! Your cinematography was superb. This was another fantastic adventure! We are sitting here at home in Florida and you are bringing back memories for my husband who grew up in Alaska. The Alaska series has been a fantastic one, as all of your journeys are. Thank you so much for sharing you travels!!! If you ever make it to Florida, we would love to meet you!☺️

[@hueyang5943]

Why do they abandoned it?

[@garbonzo540]

Hey Dustin, I happen to know a little about that truck. It appears to be an early 60s International Harvester, I'm guessing it's from the loadstar series. Looks to have a 392ci V8, possibly a 345. It has a wrecker on the back, but they turned these things into everything, from ambulances to fire trucks, dump beds to school buses. I happen to own a 1969 loadstar with a dump bed, and can haul 5 yards of gravel, even though it's only registered as a pickup. They are very tough, reliable trucks. I've got a video of my 1969 International Travelette on my channel, but have been meaning to post one featuring my loadstar in action. Just thought I would share what I know. Another great video. I have lived in Alaska my whole life, grown up driving these same roads, but have never seen it portrayed so beautifully. You really have a knack for bringing out the best in a place. Hope you have a pleasant trip home, and come back soon!

[@Destination_Adventure]

You’re just used to seeing all the beauty, so you don’t notice it the same as me. Hahahah. It happens to me all the time actually.

[@garbonzo540]

That's the power of perspective.

[@mrandrat625]

When I saw the old school hot tub, my first thought went to Bugs Bunny in the stew pot.

[@FLMegan]

Hahaha great reference and fits my age. I would have never guessed what it was.

[@carrierhinier6291]

Your drone shots are National Geographic worthy! Superb cinematography! I still get a kick out of your great sense of humor! Keep on whipping it!

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you. I’m working on it lol

[@kend1053]

About a 1963 0r 64 International Harvester. They made Farm equipment, wagons, plows, harrows and mowing machines prior to building trucks. They had a vehicle in the 60s' and 70s' called the "Scout" (About the size of the original Ford Bronco). It had the only 4 cylinder engine ever built incapable of getting 8 mpg. They also built over the road tractors and most famously their farm tractors... I can't get over the quality of your videos, you are the master of KZbin.

[@deanolson3804]

That town was friggin awesome!!!!! Just before the pickup truck what you called a fire extinguisher was just the opposite it is a giant propane burner we use the same thing for burning weeds. Beautiful scenery your vids are like watching a movie the shot's and editing are just top notch. Keep up the great work and thanks for taking me along for the ride. Peace Keep the faith Dean

[@wyomarine-m5s]

That type of fire extinguisher was used at airports, yours was repurposed for a weed burner.

[@alandsofairandbright]

The B.C government should be using your videos to promote our province, it shows how beautiful it is along with Alaska. Thanks again for sharing with us.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Well I’ve sent them a bunch of proposals, but they don’t even respond to my emails.

[@calldon4688]

Another great one brother. You're good at what you do. Maybe sometime when you're stuck in the moho for a few days due to weather or whatever you can research Silver City (and the Bear Flats Lodge too please) and do a re-release of this video with a history lesson included. Places and things are great to look at, but it's the history lessons that give your videos their third dimension. I spread the word about Destination Adventure, because it's good and I think people would enjoy it.

[@Astronetics]

I just discovered your channel a few days ago and have been binge watching all of your videos. You're absolutely killing it. Your style, your editing, everything is perfect. Keep up the good work and can't wait to watch your new videos!

[@shimaohana]

From your drone footage of the incredible countryside to the music you use, you have done it again Dustin, this was one epic adventure. Love the "hot tub" in the middle of nowhere. This remind me of my childhood in Hawaii, on the island I am from, we use to go to a cabin on the mountain and use something similar called a furo, essentially a bath. It was always great use after a long horse ride to the cabin. I love your style of narration and that you go to off the beaten path places. When I travel with my family, we do the same. I share your channel out to all my friends and family. Looking forward to your next adventure. Be well and enjoy the journey.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thanks so much.

[@mikeranfurly1135]

Just love your travels in Alaska and Yukon. Beautiful time of year, colours are spectacular. Used to live on Hiway 16 west of PG. Now in a small valley in the Shuswap. Bring on Fall. We are so blessed to live in BC and get to see all these amazing places without a lot of people all around us. Nature should be embraced one on one. Thanks for the journey.

Both you and Forresty Forest are in The Yukon right now. It would be really cool to see you guys in one video. The tow truck is an International Harvester. Probably a Loadstar. I’d guess it’s from the late 60s or early 70s.

You seriously need to get a job with the Discovery Channel or something similar, your interpretations via cinematography, presenting, editing, music, and more are just spectacular, it is so difficult to capture the beauty of a place in such a wonderful and emotionally captivating way, yet that is your strength. Kudos to you yet again. There are many comments that you should have many more subscribers and I agree. So many reactors sit in a chair reacting to songs or videos and have a million subscribers. No disrespect to them, but the physicality, weather conditions, and other challenges you endure to let us be with you in the comfort of our own homes to experience with you is inspiring. Also, your humour and respect for your surroundings help make you even more endearing.
