@@HikewithJeet cool ! Will definitely check those out 😊

[@daved6351]

Very well done videos! Great information too, thanks! I was hoping to visit there, but could you share how much the cost is to hire a vehicle to drive around there? They speak of not allowing one to go offroad and such. Did you find that an issue? Thanks for your comprehensive videos again. They are excellent! 🙏

Do you think Matanuska Glacier was worth it?

🙋🏼‍♀️ What time of the year was this?

[@siadhillon]

To help your viewers. Maybe link the places you stayed (lodges & prices, entrance fees parks, hiking trails, hot springs, time of month). I see no one wearing mask? Do you have to wear one when you enter buildings?

[@siadhillon]

Sure ! thanks for constructive feedback :)

@@siadhillon I have the same jacket..lol Anyways, I want to do this trip but as solo female budget traveller. Driving seems great option. Did you ever take the train at any time? Seems expensive when I checked form Anc to Seward.

[@siadhillon]

@@jaxfl8945 We drove to all places ! Very convenient, flexible and budget friendly choice :)

[@TrangNguyen-ek6jv]

Do you book matanuska Gracie tour? Or you can take hike by yourself

[@siadhillon]

You can do it either way. We went on our own after paying the fee. Definitely recommend clears if you plan to do it yourself

[@TrangNguyen-ek6jv]

@@siadhillon you said paying fee. What fee is it? Is matanuska Gracier walking tour?

[@siadhillon]

@@TrangNguyen-ek6jv it is the fee to enter the area. And then you can hike yourself or take a guided tour.

This is the hotel I was asking about with the private? Hot tub. Which is it?

[@sheelag8615]

NVM I got the name now in the video! Thanks

[@siadhillon]

This is an AirBnb..

[@ajinvarghese8966]

hi mam hows the hike is it okay for beginners

[@siadhillon]

Hi ! It is doable if you have cleats under your shoes..

[@sheelag8615]

No need for Crampons? Also if you could just put your Itinerary summary like Day 1 -2 , Day 2-3 it would really help.

[@siadhillon]

It is advisable to have them for Glacier Trek. All the various areas are covered in separate videos in the playlist. One can plan in whatever way is best suited for them.
