Welcome to the town of Whittier, Alaska! This town is located on the Prince William Sound and is pretty unique, as it requires driving through the longest highway tunnel in North America to get to it and most residents living in the same building. We spent a day here seeing tons of glaciers, exploring town, picking wild berries, watching salmon swim, and hiking to a gorgeous cove. It was a blast!

So fascinating! And that cove at the end of the trail - WOW!!! Your aerial shots really showed the beauty of that spot. With those salmon, didn't you just want to reach in and grab one and take it back to eat?? Seems like you seriously could have done that, without even needing your rod! Thanks again for sharing!!

I was at Whittier and Portage Pass before, Portage Glacier used to have a boat tour that went up to it. You guys got very lucky with hardly no wait to go through the tunnel. Hatcher Pass was a great place I remember too and I look forward to the next video. But one thing- you have not mentioned ice worms. When I was there I heard about ice worms and I thought it was a local fable but one of the glaciers had a sign for ice worms and a local guide pointed them out and sure enough there were these tiny little worms which fed on debris on top of glaciers. I went to one of those ice cream shops later and asked for “ice worm swirl surprise” and got a laugh.

Berries and Salmon, a bear’s favorite! Alaska seems so dog friendly and drone friendly, just loving your videos and getting to see Kona along.

It is very dog friendly (although we wish more people would follow the leash laws) and mostly drone friendly (outside the National Parks of course). Thank you and thank you for watching!

Commercial fished salmon out of Whittier in Prince William sound for 15 years 1978-1993. It’s great tagging along with you guys and seeing my old office again! Already looking forward to next weeks video, hatchers Pass is awesome!

What a neat trail! It was really cool to see how well the camouflage works for the fish. Yay! Glad you got to see your first Alaska bear and from the safe confines of your van. I was worried with all those blueberries you might have an encounter.

Glad you found the Emerald Cove trail. That road extension to the new trail head is only a few years old. Prince William Sounds flora and unique ecology were mostly only accessible by boat. It's still fairly unknown to most day adventurers. PWS is pure magic and a staycation destination for locals that know.

Yes that makes sense because Google Maps hasn’t caught on yet! We would love to go back there and see all the things we missed!

So glad you made it to Whittier! I was worried you skipped it on the way to Hope and Homer but I see that you're on the ball and doubled back. A weird, weird town, but beautiful and you got lucky with the weather. Great post!

Whoa!! Literally just in awe over the beauty of Alaska. Also kinda sad that your AK series is almost done, BUT you two pump out such quality content that you could literally film paint drying and it would still be an amazing/captivating video!

Those zoomed in shots of the glaciers are so well done! Great camera work as always. The tunnel reminds me of this tunnel in Switzerland where you ride in your car on a train! It's kind of terrifying lol
