History Abandoned in the High Mountains. Too Remote to Recover the Equipment. Destination Adventure.

[@kimklobucher3154]

Dustin, you jam-packed a lot of everything we love in this one! The views of that beautiful lake and glacier are my favorite. I was relieved when you made it back to your boat safely after retrieving your drone! And loved the history and how you included actual video footage of the asbestos mine area. One top notch episode for sure!❤

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you very much. I was relieved to get back to the boat too. lol

[@PWlangford1]

Is it that important to retrieve the drone ?

[@davidtwanow395]

So cool to see Clinton Creek again - I worked there in 1977. Thanks for the vid.

[@WanderlustAdventureCompany]

Every time I think I want a drone. I see a video like this and change my mind. Happy you were able to get it back.

[@Destination_Adventure]

lol I feel that.

[@whmthree]

Dustin, my wife and I have been enjoying your videos for some time now. Your experience in cinematography is top notch and thank you for sharing with the rest of the world. You go places where others cannot. The real privilege would be if we were able to see things through your eyes and how you process it. Thank you for all you do!

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you very much, I’m honoured to have you along for the ride.

[@classicscustomsandhotrodso600]

@@Destination_Adventure I agree 100%. I get these on Saturday night in Perth, Western Australia so I sit in front of the big tv absorb as much scenery as possible. Your editing is brilliant. It’s like sitting watching a weekly documentary made by National Geographic or similar. I would like to see you come out to Australia sometime and travel around.

[@usewhatyouhave6975]

I grew up in the Yukon. My dad moved to Canada from Germany and worked in Clinton creek in the 70’s. He had lots of good stories about the Yukon in those days

[@takhini]

Fifty years ago I was running a bulldozer on the tailing (waste) pile seen at 33:30. I happened to be looking across the valley when a bolt of lighting struck down out of a clear sky. On the next pass I saw a thin column of smoke, and that was the beginning of a small forest fire. That night the professionals arrived and quickly put it out while most of us slept.

[@nevysadventuresllc9074]

It’s your quality of production that makes us want longer videos. You keep us captivated and wanting more so longer is better for sure.

[@lhollybow]

Totally agree.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you 🙏 😊

[@Jay-cq9cr]

Dusty, my man. This is quite possibly the best episode you've ever published. Simply exceptional, buddy.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you😊

[@sandralnwebster3204]

Dustin: you are tripping back in time to see history in the Wilderness! Trudeau visited Ocean Falls at that time when it was still thriving-it was an election year and there was a bit of Trudeaumania in the air! Industry took a nose dive after that and Mother Nature started to reclaim the isolated backwaters! You are dredging up a lot of memories for us older relics! Merci buckets,I think! Cheers,Sandy&Andy😊

My Dad and Uncle used to say "messy buckets" to mess with us kids - lol

[@wilbback8589]

Emi's laughter is contagious! What a beautiful place and so rich in history. Next time you are planning on riding the trees down a mountain, put a bit of duct tape on your new smart watch ~ and anything else that may fall off ... Thanks for another wonderful Saturday morning ~

[@cherylsibson2529]

Dustin, I'm just awestruck by your ability to climb and rescue your own equipment, by how far you and Em have gone, just spectacular views of the most northern part of British Columbia I hope you took home some beautiful Jade, or Glass the quality of Videography should be given Canadian cinematography awards Emmy awards your work is so high class, you should submit your work, you deserve it! I'm a bit teary eyed just beautiful work!

[@Destination_Adventure]

This is really really nice to read, thank you so much.

[@Ganiscol]

Indeed a roundhouse kick of adventuring! 🤠 A little nugget many may have missed, is that beautiful dog running along the quad through that creek, scooping up water while running - no time to lose when it's time to run! 😍

[@mimzyc9949]

I’m continually overwhelmed by the drone footage. Such a vast expanse of land and water. I’m also terrified by the bridges you traverse. I really appreciated the old footage of the mine.Thanks so much for taking us with you on these adventures.

[@juliaferraro2599]

I am absolutely blown away by the Beauty of this Land we call Home!!! What an amazing adventure that was. Thanks to you and Emmie for sharing your adventures with us 💕

[@Awsom47Merc]

Dustin, my wife summed up our opinion of the first part of this vid she says " Dude You Got Me Pulling My Hair Out !!!" That was sketchy ! Thanks for not getting Dead ! Emi would never forgive you. Or us. Glad the rest of vid was relaxing. Thanks you two. You make our Saturday great every week .👊😎👍

Mountaineering in rubber boots, talk about versatile. One of the sketchiest drone recoveries I've ever seen. Well done and a fantastic video. Thank you for taking us to the most remote wonders of British Columbia and beyond.

Hey Dustin, if you ever get tired of people telling you how much they love your stuff well you’re not gonna like this. I really love your stuff. Rock on man thank you so much.❤

That was one of your best, if not the best Videos that you have done. Thank you for taking me to places that I would otherwise, never see. I find it very educational, as I have read of these places, but never thought that I would ever see them, through your eyes. You make this 82 year old very happy. Thank you.

I Agree, a Destination Adventure movie would be great!

We knew you were safe because we were watching the video after you rescued the drone, Buuuuttttt! You’re more important to us than the footage or the drone. Still what an adventure!!! I got a kick out of you saying your climber friend would let you have it for free climbing, and you cut the crying parts out 😂 You know we always enjoy your content! Today’s was Destination Adventure Thrill! Appreciate you, glad you got down safely!

[@grahamlevido9094]

I have just watched your video of the abandoned section of The White Pass Express in The Yukon. My wife and I traveled from Australia to ride this train in 1974 all the way from Whitehorse to Skagway. When the line went the full distance it was the White Pass and Yukon Railroad. Awesome trip full day including lunch stop at Bennett station where all passenger were fed two course meal in 1 hour. It was a mixed train with freight, flat cars for vehicles as well as passenger cars complete with pot belly stoves for heating. On your video you wondered about the short sections of track at 90 degrees to the main line. These were for 2-4 person hand or powered carts for railroad workers. They could man handle them off the main line if trains were coming through. Keep up the great work with your videos which take us back to many places that we explored back in our carefree youth.

[@supercalcium]

Hello Dustin So nice films you make, i love them. Keep on doing them. Greetings from Ljungby Sweden

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

This was a fantastic video. Thank you so much for sharing!!!

[@chrisackerley1842]

That climb to retrieve your drone was epic! I am most impressed! All I can say is that your outddor lifestyle and all the hiking you do really paid off for you. A man in lesser physical condition would not have been able to pull it off. What I got the biggest kick out of was on the way down, at the point where your passage through through the alders seemingly was at its worst, your Canadian accent came out. Most of the time you control it but, when the going got tough ... yep', it came out!

[@come4t_a_bull]

Ah, I could'a made the first 5 feet, no prob. But hey, I made exactly the same climb as Dustin (so did you) and I didn't even break a sweat... lol. He and the 'Desert Drifter' are part mountain goat I think. Special people experiencing life first hand. Sure glad they bring us with them!

[@Juliemorgana]

Off and on, I'd watch one of your videos. This one is so outstanding! I agree with all the praise from your followers. I am now going to get notifications and watch much more often! I grew up in mining camps and lonely mountain tops as my Dad worked at this little mine or that. The first memories I have are from a log cabin on the Tulsequah River, south of Atlin.

[@canuckweld7347]

Hey Dustin! I know space is at a premium in your rig, but hear me out. Small 3D printers are very very cheap these days, in the skill to run them is actually really straightforward, having one with you in the rig that you can set up would make replacing drone parts on the fly much easier, plus small bushings in other parts on the truck or camper that break. They can also be used to print custom camera holding enclosures and guards/float cases. There's a massive online community that is already created most parts we encounter in everyday life that are free to download and print. Just a thought, but I have two and they changed my life. For at home, as well as in my mobile welding Rig. Love the videos they are so outstanding . Cheers from a fellow B.C'er

[@gordonmorrow]

Your film ends: “Much love, Dustin”. However, I think it would be better as “Much love, Emma and Dustin”. Her joyful spirit of shared adventure and especially her patience and support through the rough parts is special. As an old man married for decades, I can tell you this is called “love”. Best wishes to both of you!

[@F.Harlock]

[@dudleydoorite4677]

Another superb video! Really enjoyed the interviews you did with the folks in Atlin in a prior video. I worked in the mill at Clinton Creek summer 1968. The houses that later housed families were used as bunkhouses, guys on different shifts in the same room. For a long shift change (48 hours off) a bunch of us went for a 12 hour drive to Fairbanks, spent 24 hours there, drove 12 hours back to CC and right back to work. I remember P.E.Trudeau touring the mill. It was all tidied up for the occasion. Paid a visit to the Forty Mile townsite on a day off. Real shame about the ice jam caused flood that destroyed so much history. Asbestos in its raw form isn't the worst, it's things like the dust from grinding brake shoes, etc. And unlike Cassiar the CC townsite was located some distance away from the millsite.
