I lived in Fairbanks for four years. Loved it up there.

[@larrycieslak5631]

I lived in Fairbanks from the years 1958-1961 but too young and no memory so the videos are nice to see. I definitely want to go. Videos inspiring.

[@Weesywow45]

Alaska is so beautiful...

[@crusiethmaximuss]

Looks calm and beautiful out there...

[@johnfraser8116]

Another great travel video. I've been following your work for over two years and they just keep getting better. Thanks so much!

[@timothycox1310]

my brother and his family used to live in Fairbanks. It was great when me, my mom and dad traveled from DeBeque Colorado to Fairbanks and it took us 8 days to get there. Great place to visit

[@mysteriousokapi4564]

The Dalton Highway and the Alaska Highway are 2 completely different roads. They literally go in opposite directions. The Alaska Highway or Alcan is between Delta Junction (it used to end in Fairbanks but no longer officially does) and Dawson Creek in B.C. Canada. The Dalton Highway runs between Fairbanks and Deadhorse, AK. It is extremely rough and dangerous. Most of it is gravel. That’s a super important distinction for people traveling to Fairbanks, as most rental car companies will charge you hundreds of dollars extra if you drive on the Dalton because it is so rough on the cars.

[@jonam7589]

veryuseful information. Thanks!

[@recoveringpotential8095]

I had to go look it up too, before seeing your comment to make sure i wasn't an idiot before asking this dude to di better research. I don't even live in AK, yet, and it didn't sound right

[@kamelkadri2843]

This is one of the best episodes !

[@kimbranson3374]

Just found your channel today and am enjoying it very much 😊 I’m an Alaskan Girl, born in Juneau in the territorial days before statehood. I really hope you will include videos about Juneau, Seward, Homer, the Kenai Peninsula, Skagway, Valdez and the Matanuska Valley 😁

[@kets4443]

How has the state changed in your lifetime ?

[@JaswantSingh-hh2zf]

Beautiful, peaceful and serene... 😍

[@chuckpotter1209]

Great video and I enjoyed the history of it all. Thanks.

[@RetrieverTrainingAlone]

The drive from Fairbanks to Castner Glacier is 140 miles (2 hours to Delta, then another 40 minutes drive to the Castner Glacier, then a hike to get to the glacier.

[@mattsartori2624]

Great 😊 video my friend thanks 🙏🏻

[@Pudgieray]

Beautiful, makes me wanna visit

[@julianne2saw]

enjoyed fairbanks, should've tried to stay longer last time.

[@annettes7460]

Well, as a former 15-year resident of Alaska, 10 of those years being in Fairbanks... I was really enjoying your video, until you mispronounced Chena River.

[@annarozell7671]

That as a Fairbankan bothered me also.

I would love to see you recording your videos in Brazil, when this pandemic passes.

I was stationed at Ft. Wainwright, AK for three years.

[@robson2939]

Great video mate, I didn't know you have other channel

[@Harta23]

Hello dear friend good morning Thanks for great sharing nice travel greattng from MACAU

[@shamlove0]

Great video jeff i hoping u was going to fishing

[@annarozell7671]

You didn't talk about the geophysical institution on the Fairbanks campus is world famous also the museum up there. Also the pipeline out by fox close to Fairbanks or about our gold miner's that were some of our famous sourdoughs "pioneers ". Lots of other stuff to see! Although you did a good job of making it sound nice and video was good! Thanks for the positive look at the interior! Com visit in the winter see what you are made of.

[@jonny5143]

Not sure if something is wrong with the upload, but it's displaying at like 10 frames per second, it's almost unwatchable, just a heads up 👍

[@blakerh]

That ice tunnel and moose was very cool!

[@halfway01]

coming to fairbanks in september this was a good video to give some ideas of the city

[@anikethpragada7193]

I need these things • PW Smith - Absent point sheets • 18 + 4

[@brendamoore3913]

Very nice video. Helpful in planning our trip next year.

[@tacocruiser4238]

Do this video in the winter and see how it goes.

[@tsiam359]

很可愛的城市 😁❤

[@williamstrother6027]

Fairbanks gets very cold

[@Harold710]

From my understanding, "northern lights" basically occur year round, you just need darkness to see them.

[@mysteriousokapi4564]

Yes, they do happen all year. However here in Fairbanks, it doesn’t get dark in the summer. So we tend to tell people you can only see them in winter. Less confusing for them that way.

[@xoxoxoxoxo7997]

Which did you enjoy more anchorage or fairbanks

[@Alaska_Aviation]

I have been to both cities and to me I liked Anchorage more than Fairbanks because in Anchorage there is just more to do

[@timmyburch9126]

Fairbanks is way better.

[@timmyburch9126]

@@Alaska_AviationMore to do? What are you talking about just because more buildings and businesses? That does not mean more to do.

[@annarozell7671]

As an Alaskan don't know why anyone goes there! We only fly through to go somewhere else or driving to Seward .

[@FuntaSingh]

Great video but too shaky.....hope you buy some good equipment so that the videos are much more stable in viewing. Thanks

[@williamzimmerman8678]

Wait can you see aurora in March?

[@Zerin666]

If we don’t want to visit Denali is it worth visiting Fairbanks?

[@Fizzaali-su1fu]

I love this channel ❤but you new video upload chicago because I love chicago city ,,,, please new video upload chicago city,,,,

[@tracylistello167]

How did you get around in Fairbanks?

[@madnessstars]

Can you get the aurora borealis there?

[@merica4realz630]

Thanks for the video. Honesty, not as interested in Alaska as I once was… Mosquito 🦟 haven and cool / dreary. Plus didn’t help seeing all those Alaskan state trooper episodes to give you an idea of how poor alot of the state is and how most live.

[@rockyzrockyx917]

Tourists in Chicago and New York City get shot. Tons of homeless people in Los Angeles.

[@timmyburch9126]

LoL good don't come here then.

Dude go down south and you’ll find the same exact thing.

[@nataliechavez5511]

Can you see the northern lights in september or October

[@timmyburch9126]

Yes labor day weekend is when you can start to see them good.

[@johnb5254]

I have no idea why people live here. 9 month winters are a bit too extreme.

[@timmyburch9126]

It's great here outside Fairbanks. It's definitely not winter for 9 months maybe 5. 1 May to 15 September is the best weather in America.

[@otda3675]

Where are u at the 16:33 mark?

[@RetrieverTrainingAlone]

Richardson Highway south of Big Delta, north of Paxon.

[@grizraider88]

I worked at Alaskaland I the summers of 85 and 86. Everything look the same except the name.

[@recoveringpotential8095]

Hopefully you do better research on other videos, dalton highway 1974 and only took five months, the alcan took like eight months, please ensure your info is correct before losing all credibility

[@jasonunruh9605]

Yeah, that "elk" jerky is trash. It's actually a mixture with beef. Prolly 80% beef 20% elk

[@bobanga470]

Man, you sure did butcher Tanana river and Chena pronunciation.

[@floydaustin49]

Hello! I realize that you are not From Fairbanks. But, E.T. Barnette, the man that founded Fairbanks, Alaska, last name is Pronounced" BAR-NET. Also the Tanana River is pronounced Tan-AH-Naw, not: Tuh-NAN-AH. If you send visitors to Fairbanks, and they unknowingly use these pronunciations, they will only be laughed at, And Embarrassed..

[@thannaske5371]

Chena River is pronounced 'Chee-Nah," The Tanana River is pronounced 'Ta Na Na", short-A sound! Get it STRAIGHT!!

[@thannaske5371]

"Ta Na Naw," excuse me...Two short, one long "A."

[@timmyburch9126]

The number of errors and wrong information is ridiculous in this video.

[@Harold710]

Nothing like that good old ELK jerky

[@mysteriousokapi4564]

Never seen an elk in Fairbanks in my life 😂😂

[@gonstotwriter]

I want to move there. I’m sick of Canada.

[@dennisblackburn6585]

I need to get your pronunciations right. Call me

[@IslandHopperTV]

Okay call me let’s talk

[@ervinclark6572]

Clearly not from fairbanks

[@framusburns-hagstromiii808]

Ok..they are pronounced CHeeee Nah and Tan Ah Nah......don't waste your time and money..there is nothing in Fairbanks you won't have already seen on your way to get there. Literally nothing much of interest north of Denali Park outside of the Aurora in Wintertime. Fairbanks survives off of Military and Tourists dollars..it is a tourist trap..period. Turn around at Denali Park and go to Seward or The Kenai penninsula.

[@samihmina6388]

I guess that this is the coldest city in America. I heard that the coldest temperature ever recorded in North America was in Snag, Yukon, Canada. It was near Whitehorse.

[@ShellymanStudios]

Fairbanks is the city of Xtreme. The coldest in Winter, the hottest in the Summer.

[@samihmina6388]

I've heard the same thing said about Winnipeg from Winnipeggers.
