RV Boondocking the Alcan [HARDER Than We Thought]

[@SFNativeGal]

Another great reason to love you two is for for being a part of Shine! Thank you so very much as an adopted mom to a cherished 37 year old with 1p36 deletion syndrome. Churhes are so slow to serve this population of Jesus loving people. Ask my daughter where Jesus is and she doesn’t speak but points to her heart always! Thank you!

[@rebeccawooldridge7581]

Thank you so much for sharing the Shine Tallahassee video.

[@saras4181]

They both look good! Love the pup leaning on Craig as he drives!

[@garrycollie2135]

Loved both signs, good save on the florda boo boo. Lol. Craig whines too much and Victoria sweetly encourages him. Lol. Well done both signs!! We both love your channel. Marilyn and Garry C

[@lynnedarnall-vw4tz]

Both of the signs look great. Y'all did a wonderful job. Love y'all.

[@karenexner6848]

That's a toughy!!! I like Victoria's because of the mountains.......BUT............I like Craig's because of the colors??? Good Job guys!!

[@katewebber1131]

A nice dip in warm water after a long drive. Love watching you guys❤❤ Both signs are great, I too hate arts and crafts, with a PASSION. 😂😂😂

[@deblight677]

Both signs are awesome!! New to your channel and I Love You Guys!! You are both so blessed to have each other..

[@krazedkamper]

Oh, and good on you, supporting Shine! ❤

[@DeborahDishong]

Love this video. Fun. The rough roads, abandoned living spaces, animals, hot springs and the sign decoration. Both signs are fabulous! Very Cool video. I always look forward to you, guys. Take care, stay safe and look forward to next week. Deb

[@ourrvsunsets]

Craig, amigo, it don't matter that you messed it up. Y'all are doing it for the right reason and that's helping others out. For years we have been doing production work for a nonprofit in San Diego that helps with intellectually and developmentally disabled folks. It's amazing how much they can enhance the lives of these people. Goodonya, both of you, for doing this!!! Safe travels and yes, more people are injured by moose each year than bears. So tell that kooky wife of yours to stop running around taking pictures of them in the wild!!! 🙂

[@ChrisDawley]

Great video! Love both signs and great save on the FLORIDA, make it pop more! Shine is a wonderful event!

[@wildrvlife]

Thank you so much! And I do think it ended up turning out decent.

[@marytroche984]

I like both signs, y’all did a great job. And big kudos to you guys for supporting the Shine organization.

[@RvTalkTv]

Great video as always!! Nice hot springs, pretty cheap too! Meth campground was interesting😂😂😂

[@badgerpa9]

Not so nice to dare Craig to swim over and cook his boys. But was funny. Glad you guys are doing well on the trip. Stay safe and healthy.

[@jacobwilliams4724]

Check out the Dewalt battery operated tire inflator. We use it for our rig and it goes up to 120 PSI. Makes airing up all the tires a breeze with just setting the pressure you want and pressing go.

[@timf6916]

Safe travels, so far so good. Only positive waves, just positive waves. No negativity.

[@jimmyrosen9424]

To fix your sign, contact the state legislation and ask them to officially change the spelling of the state to "florda"

[@joanmesser7829]

Great signs .. fun watching you two!!! ❤

[@granthemesath9022]

I think both signs are perfect. Can’t wait to see them put up.

[@markyeater2247]

We stayed in the overflow RV parking on the south side of the road east of the café and we have free access to Menard Hot Springs whenever we want of us and Star link work perfect there

[@juanitasellshouses]

I love both signs!! I just hope you find a spot big enough. We struggled to find room for a license plate. But the signpost forest is a fun place to visit!

[@raoulroberts2024]

Both signs turned out EXCELLENT! Great job!

[@johnporter8449]

You just raised my administration to your postings with Night to Shine. I've been to a few of Tim Tebow's charity fundraisers and collected way too much stuff from his silent auctions. It was a shock to our community when he passed away. Thank you for sharing Shine Tallahassee. God Bless you.

No way that Craig or Joesph should have gone in those abandoned structures! Roads look like they were in good shape, cinnamon cakes not buns scenery was beautiful. Hot springs were a bargain at that cost, water was so clear that was amazing. Very good information in this video! Hopefully no spelling teachers see that sign we common folks wouldn’t even notice they both are great!

[@daydreamer0923]

Oh so cool. Happy Birthday!!🎶🌈🎈🎉. Yeah!! I wish you much, much FUN!! ❣️ Enjoy. Yeah totally looks scratchy.😮 OMG! My jaw is on the floor.😲. Speechless. I think it's close to maybe paradise. I so wish I were there to. Thank you for sharing this with me/ut. Enjoy that slice of Heaven. That fossil was the coolest. Wow! You kids just blew me away with your organization. The greatest gift to offer up to God is being a selfless person. You guys shine like diamonds.😂 Good job as always. Thanks again. ✌️😊🎶🌈

They were both great. Your both winners. She kinda is good with crafts stuff hun.

[@melodyhopponen7504]

Both signs turned out AWESOME

[@trudyyurina5473]

Happy Birthday Kayla!

[@JustGoAdventure]

This is funny to watch. We literally were just at all the places you’re stopping. We went up the 99 from Vancouver to Squamish, to Whistler, Pemberton, 100-Mile House, then to the 16, to the 37 and then turned off to the 37A to go see Bear & Salmon Glaciers by Stewart BC & Hyder Alaska. We continued North to the Alaska highway to the Yukon, and Watson Lake. We left 2 license plates at the Sign Post Forest, then headed down the Alaska highway to Liard Hot Springs, which was awesome. That same bear you had at your site, was at ours too (overflow parking at Liard) apparently he’s a regular. Our dogs kept him away..lol. We’re almost to Dawson Creek now and thought the drive was amazing. All of it, absolutely LOVED it! We’re headed to Jasper & Banff, then slowly headed to Baja for the winter. Enjoy your trip. 🙌 PS..those cinnamon buns were the best we’ve ever eaten, she’s quite the baker

[@jacksanders7029]

Mp 700 is a spot where my dad and I caught some nice dolly varden trout when we were there in 1969. And there were fresh bear tracks everywhere.

[@philmueller5694]

Night to Shine is an awesome celebration My daughter Jordan has been to several events, she loved them all

[@Nowhin9ing]

Funny thing......I was scrolling,,,,,,I found the friends you are traveling with, I noticed the bike on the front of the camper,,,,I said to myself, I've seen that truck w bike. ..........didn't take long after watching their newest video,,,,,,I saw your RV on their episode. 😊 I m following their journey next to you......😊 Safe travels.

[@dalemarshall9736]

On the road from Whitehorse to Dawson City we stopped at a place that advertised the world's largest cinnamon buns. They were the size of a dinner plate and oh so good!

[@johnleach740]

Be sure and spend time in Talkeetna if you can. Great place to walk around.

[@michealtanner4280]

Hi guys signs were a tie.i love the sign for shine for Tallahassee. We live in Port charlotte Florida and we have 2 group homes for handicap adults and we go to night to shine here in are area we have been doing this work for 20 years now we take them to Gatlinburg Tennessee and they love it been there 3 times now they love going white water rafting, horse back riding, zip lining and so much more.thank you 2 for supporting this community

[@cynthialahti-wong1800]

I have to say, I'm with Craig on arts and crafts!! Hate that stuff... Great video guys, looks like fun!

[@pvdogs2]

Craig, the yellow behind 'Florida' is to represent the sun as in The Sunshine State. It just needed sun rays around it. Loved the 'no sniveling' sign on the gas pump.

[@JoeyJackson-200T]

Both signs look great. I especially like the correction on the Shine sign.

[@maureencarrigg3795]

Happy Birthday to Kalyn! Craig, you spelled Tallahassee right. I can't spell that. Also, great job on showing off the springs. Thanks for supporting Shine!

Thank you! It's such an awesome non-profit!

[@traci635]

Gorgeous scenery ❤ I would say with the snow and bitter cold Alaska gets, I'm not surprised by the road conditions. Thank you for taking us along on your epic trip, along with Joseph and Kalyn 😊.....Craig, a "herd of bears" that's hilarious 😅

[@Mr.Unacceptable]

If you drive through BC you have to stay at the Alice Lake camp ground for it's stunning big tree forest and amazing camp spots if you don't make the effort you are really missing out on the bast spot in BC. The area has many unique geological areas and every environment. Dunes to rain forest.

[@randallgriffith6416]

Well done, folks; lots of good info. I think Craig gets the award for best sign, mostly because he found a way to remedy his mistake. I think "Florida" looks better with the highlight box. Victoria's sign looks good too. I think the blue mountains were a good choice! If we make it up that way, we'll certainly look for your sign. 🙂

[@rongray4847]

Beautiful area but you can tell it’s remote. Certainly nice to visit. Love what you two are doing, a good way to see the Country. Have fun guys and enjoy your trip. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

I like both of the signs ... and a nice recovery on the FLORIDA! I travel full-time in my Class A... and last week I was somewhat close to your hometown. I was at Lake Seminole right on the Georgia / Florida line. Now in Pensacola visiting daughter ... and then working my way up to where I'm originally from ... Indiana.

[@burlingtonbill4687]

Rosie and I have been to Alaska for the summer three times now. We took our Montana fifth wheel the first time. our Reflection the second and last summer our Brinkley Z-3100. The first two trips we had flat tires, but the Brinkley was great! With the Brinkley we had solar and an inverter so we boondocked the entire summer. Burlington Bill busking on the road and on you tube. A couple videos on my you tube site from our last trip including one where I filmed a bear near Kluen Lake in the Yukon.

[@GaryRupp-fe6ly]

Wow that bear was pretty close but you handled it well 👍 hot spring is cool beautiful scenery and Craig in the water with hat on man thing haha 😂 Victoria looked good in her swim outfit can tell how healthy you guys are. Love the signs I agree it’s a even because Craig made a great repair. Can’t wait for Craig’s next meal prep and cooking. Thanks you guys ❤

[@ChristianCareerJoy]

The signs turned out great!!!! I will have to say Craig’s won IMO (especially with the fix) but they are both great!

[@dougstinton1622]

I feel ya on the towing, Craig. 44’ toy hauler… it’s mentally exhausting. I just drove every mile of the 1800 miles from Denver - Grand Junction - Great Basin NP - Cedar Breaks - Grand Staircase - Capitol Reef - Rifle Gap - Denver. It’s brutal behind the wheel that long.

Night To Shine really touched me. Our Church here in NM does one as well. Thank you for sharing that.

[@burlingtonbill4687]

You have probably passed it by now, but at Kluen Lake there is an awesome pull off. We have stayed there coming and going all three times. From there to the border are the worst roads on the Alcan. Named destruction Bay for a reason. Burlington Bill busking on the road and here on you tube.

[@terryzanger7152]

There really is endless boondocking on the Alcan or 37 in BC if you have a smaller rig. Most BC hunters and fisherman prefer truck campers for this reason. Course they are not full time RVers. Thanks for posting

[@cbrbird]

In June 1972, my parents transported their 3 children (aged 11 to 15) in a brand new Chevrolet Caprice, and pulled a tiny tent trailer with tiny wheels, up the Alaska Highway. It was all gravel in those days and at about Mile 105, the the trailer leaf springs gave up at three points, bending the axle 90 degrees in the process. A number of other travellers stopped to help, and when an unencumbered 4x4 pick-up truck appeared, it was waved down, and the driver was happy to drive into the ditch, while a dozen people literally lifted the trailer onto the back of the pick-up. It was then driven to the gas station at Wonowon (Mile 101) where the axle was straitened, the frame reinforced and the suspension welded back on. Being British, my parents decided to press on regardless, and at about MIle 485, we pulled into a pull out and checking under the trailer, we found both leaf spring's welds had failed at the front mountings. That was the furthest we travelled on the Alcan HIghway. We cut down a small tree, cut it to length, lashed it across the trailer frame, and lashed the springs to the tree. The now abandoned gas station at your boondocking site was where we had the springs reattached. I've never been back, unfortunately...

[@graceabounds3322]

We just got back from Alaska and I honestly don’t know how you do it with editing and keeping up with the videos. We got a GoPro just for the trip and even used the Quik app to edit short videos for us but gave up half way through our trip. Thanks for all the effort that goes into your channel. Enjoy your trip! We logged 18,438 miles. 😮

[@wildrvlife]
