A one week adventure across northern British Columbia with our friends from @EPIC-4WD , to Hyder Alaska and the Salmon Glacier. We travelled in my 2022 Jeep Gladiator with a 426 Hemi swap, a Jeep Wrangler and a Dodge Ram, all heavily modified for off-road and overland adventures. This is our story.

The quality of these video are unmatched to any other channel... Literally looks like National Geographic quality shots

[@cliffbooth7075]

I don’t know how he does it but he regularly tops what were already excellent videos. The soundtrack in this video was really good too. It was certainly a side to Alaska you don’t normally see.

[@_jaydenrp_6515]

Couple Australia KZbinrs are the Same quality but is good to watch people form another country with the same Quality content

[@cliffbooth7075]

@@_jaydenrp_6515 Which Aussie videos are the same quality? I watch a lot of off-roading videos and if I’m not aware of them I’ll check them out? Ronny Dahl’s were great quality videos when he did trips filmed for KZbin but they’re rarer than Tasmanian Tiger sightings these days because his Ch7 contract gets all of his worthwhile content. TSTN & TrailRecon set a pretty high standard though. Great unique destinations, good mix of overlanding & decent 4wding, great shots, excellent use of the drone and compelling story telling. I’m loving it that 4wd 24/7 are currently releasing videos from the US and using Shauno’s 4wd which was shipped over from Australia, but they’re just all about hardcore 4wding & it does get a bit too much from time to time because Shauno & Graham are super overloaded with energy when filming on the tracks. They hit all the sane destinations every 2yrs just about. Cape York & the Simpson Desert for them are like the Ashes and done every 2 years.

I don't even know how to start this comment. This is award-worthy. You are a cinematographer, an epic storyteller first, and an achieved off-roader. I watch a lot of off-road content, but I literally crave yours. I never talk out loud during a film, you had me fuuuuuuk that's amazing. Wow, kudos, amazing edit, thank you for taking me there.

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Hey thank you so much.

[@davethompson5515]

Thanks for taking me back 40 years! I did some of that exploration work there in 1983. It rained every day for 4 months straight. The Granduc Mine was operating at the time on the other side of the tunnel. We built a lot of those trails. Good to see they are still somewhat navigable. I just retired after 40 years as an exploration geologist, having worked and played in some of the most amazing and remote parts of Canada. To think the old rental 4x4 pickups could do what they did! Cheers.

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing.

[@jack_2612]

as someone who lives in Italy, I am quite familiar with mountains and valleys. What I'm not familiar with and is absolutely astonishing to see every time I watch one of your videos is the scale of things there in the americas. It's wild how much larger everything is. I've seen glaciers in the past, but that thing scared the crap out of me, never seen anything like it. I genuinely thank you for the content you bring, it helps not only relaxing and spending some good time, but also getting a wider point of view on the world in general (like I said, never seen anything like the things you show in your videos and I wouldn't have seen them if it weren't for your channel)

[@mtbrdude]

If you ever get the chance, I highly encourage a road trip across Canada.

[@davidfacca8899]

@jack_2612 I can appreciate; my cousin Mark in Italy brought his friend Paolo last October…… he could not grasp flying over one lake (Lake Superior) for over an hour😊 He loved the trip; got him out on atvs, hiking, catching his first trout, etc. he still talks about the vastness of the wilderness here; it was so nice to see someione enjoy it all

First time watching them. I know 4wd 24/7 is a good channel. They are based in Australia. Been watching them for years.

[@bentleydonovan4608]

Your filming of surroundings and vehicles driving is above all others, paired with the relaxing music makes these videos a must watch.Thanks for sharing the most beautiful spots in our nation for some of us that will never get to personally experience it in person.

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@elizabethwilliams9597]

I agree because I don't get to travel, heck I haven't seen my siblings in 25 almost 30 years ago and I just lost a baby brother this year 😢. My dad moved me away from my entire family and moved to Las Vegas Nv. I was 8 so I didn't have a choice in the matter 😢. I was supposed to see my siblings this year and didn't even get to do that before he passed away sadly. I tried so hard too 😪. I just recently had to sell my truck to pay my rent. The only vehicle I have ever been able to buy myself. Without help from anyone, so now I really can't go see my sister and meet her teenage kid's.

[@bentleydonovan4608]

The places Shawn goes in that JEEP is totally unbelievable!! Why JEEP is not his biggest Sponsor is beyond me. The places he goes and the video he shots is truly Epic. Awesome content SIR

[@KrazyMitchAdventures]

45:29 I believe that is the Lake that Destination Adventure claimed, and named after spending a night there. The ONLY stacked rocks, are hiking trail markers, Graffiti stacked rocks, are a blemish, and should never be erected as they can lead to confusion on a trail. Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints.

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Yeah when we were camped at the glacier, I was watching Dustin’s video in my tent and I was like “hey… this is where we are” haha.

[@KrazyMitchAdventures]

@@TheStoryTillNow I so want to see a Collab video between DA & TSTN, I think the cinematography would be, beyond EPIC.. He's currently in Haida Gwaii for a month

[@herbiehoss]

Diesen Trip habe ich bereits vor 36 Jahren mit einem Ford Bronco 4x4 und meinen beiden Söhnen gemacht. Streckenweise sind mir bei diesem Video die Tränen in die Augen gekommen. Die wilde Schönheit des kanadischen British Columbia und von Alaska ist unübertroffen! Ich danke der Truppe die dieses Video gemacht hat von ganzem Herzen. Ihr habt einem alten Mann, der heute in BC Kanada lebt, eine ganz große Freude gemacht.

[@simpleinstinct]

It's nice to see that Ram out on the trail representing the full size rigs!

[@Jgor3146]

This is TSTN at his very best. Great adventure, beautifully shot, wonderfully stitched together.

[@IanT_KilleenBonsai]

Awesome video!!! You always show me places that i want to go now that i am retired. Please don't knock over the rock stacks though. As a through hiker i look for those because they are trail makers. The the CDT and PCT are trails from Mexico to Canada. There are other trails that continue on from there through Alaska. I am sure there would be local trails too and these are the markers to keep hikers on trail in adverse weather. Please keep up the awesome videos. Peace

[@TheStoryTillNow]

catalyst.cm/stories-new/2022/4/12/why-creating-rock-cairns-is-dangerous-and-wildly-illegal

[@IanT_KilleenBonsai]

And driving through the way you do in your previous videos show is obviously not damaging the Macroinvertebrates and following LNT correct??? Some people will abuse anything such as rock stacking but most serve a purpose. Cannot speak for the ones in Canada. the ones on the long trails are builf by the conservation and trail crews to help mark the hiking trails. Peace

[@DC-rl4rp]

Stopping about 15 mins in just to say…prob one of the best Real adventure and production of said adventure I’ve seen so far. Hard work Works and it Shows👊👍

Are you flying the drone while driving your rig?? I cant even imagine that while on those shelf roads! You are my favorite channel man thank you for the content ❤

[@sector299]

I rode a motorcycle up to the Salmon Glacier in 2008. It was snowed in at the top, so couldn't get to the mining tunnel. My riding buddy told me it went through the mountain and opened up onto an incredible valley on the other side. I'm guessing you were in the same tunnel! Your drone shots and narrating are awesome! Along with the rest! Thanks!

[@vickiejenkins1881]

This has been one of your BEST videos we have seen yet ! The beauty & majesty of God's work is beyond words. Thank you for taking us along 🙏 😊

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Thank you Vickie!

[@truckguy6.7]

A few notes. Half way between Hyder and Kitwanga is a turn off called Cranberry Connector. It's a nice trek and a side trip to the Nisga'a valley. Lots to see there too... side trip into Kitsault, which is a fully maintained ghost town (permission needed to pass gate) and from there if you have a boat you can make it to Anyox which is the most amazing old mining ghost town from the turn of the century. This trip will loop you back to Terrace and will pass the Nisga's memorial lava beds which is the most recent volcanic eruption in Canada. A must see... The rock piles are called Inukshuk's which were used by First Nations as markers. The formation you kicked over could have been a grave marker, so if you are having a lot of bad luck lately I would recommend going back and replacing it. Okay, the last part is most likely bullshit. lol

[@jamesarnold6059]

The rock statue is called an inukshuk. It's a native tradition that was used to say "this land can support life" or "people can live here," indicating a place of abundance

[@AK-Brian]

Exactly. Not all rock stacking is respectful, but that one was and it saddened me to see it destroyed. The only blemish in an otherwise fantastic video. It may have been a mistake, but their heart is in the right place with the message of leaving the wilderness untamed.

[@jamesarnold6059]

@AK-Brian I can see their gripe being on that sketchy shelf trail. Was beautiful but maybe just for someone's IG post & not an OG 1st natn hopefully?

[@barnetts9812]

Your uploads that you present to us Joe Public are epic, including this one. Just a thought, if that inukshuk was there already, probably for a long time, it's preferred to leave it be.

[@bogdandanailescu9869]

I sincerely didn't get why rock stacking is a bad thing... yes I watched the whole video :) nice one Shaun, awesome scenery!

[@chellisdodge]

Just something for Karens to bitch about

OMG the waterfall against the glacier was one of the best views you have ever recorded. Awesome as usual Shaun! Thanks😊

[@bobjackson7516]

[Notes]: - AMAZING video, one of the best for TSTN, simply spectacular! Thank you for taking us on your trek. - Friends on journeys to extreme remote locations that are only willing to go 9/10 of the way would concern me. - Don't move rocks in formations that nature wouldn't have otherwise done on its own. - It's ok to take glaciers apart. Weird. - Otherwise, awesome video as always!
