Jasper National Park: 24 Hours Exploring Maligne Canyon, Spirit Island, Athabasca Falls & More

[@ThroughMyLens]

Sorry this video did not publish in 4K for some reason! Hopefully it updates. I always use 4K for my videos :)

[@AdventuresWithBradAndAnna]

Still amazing. Sometimes the wait (publishing time for 4K) is not worth it. Your videos are always golden. I love your channel so very much. I would love to turn my channel into what you do. Keep up the awesome work.

[@prowrestlingisart6742]

I like the balance they strive to keep by allowing visitors to see spots while still respecting important places for native people

[@ThroughMyLens]

I agree, it is nice to see how well taken care of the park was.

[@rhondaz356]

That scenery is so gorgeous. Once again, you have brought us to breathtaking sites. Thank you for sharing these marvelous experiences with us, Josh and Pops... I absolutely love the way you present your videos, Josh. They are filled with adventures, and you present them in a relaxing, refreshing, and very entertaining way. I'm not sure if I would have done that last part, to be honest.🤔🙃 🏞 🛣🚙👏🏻👏🏻

[@ThroughMyLens]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yea, the skywalk is not for everyone haha

[@annette3488]

Jasper is beautiful! We did this trip this summer! Loved it and would like to go back and see it without the smoke from the wild fires!

[@ThroughMyLens]

I would love to see it without the smoke as well!

[@elizabeth2654]

Fantastic video!! I live in Alberta, and Jasper is truly my favourite place on earth ❣️❣️. You will have to come back and spend more time in beautiful Alberta !!

[@ThroughMyLens]

I would love to! I only got to spend a half day in Banff as well, I need a full week!

[@SnowFalling123]

Jasper is my favourite place in the world! The entire area is amazing, the mountains are amazing, the wildlife is amazing and the people are just so nice! I have been there many times over the years, but my favourite was in 2018 when we got engaged on top of the glacier!! Just an amazing place!

[@scottscriticalmass]

Fantastic... I spent some time in Jasper 4-5 years back and brought back a lot of great memories. Also reminded me it's time to get back up there. Thank you as always for the great content.

[@ThroughMyLens]

I was blown away by how beautiful it was! I am glad you got to see it as well

[@nmbutterfly52]

I absolutely love ❤ Jasper and Banff National Parks !! Breathtaking !!! Worth every penny !!!

[@ThroughMyLens]

It is such a stunning place!

[@xiongbear.travel]

Jasper is stunning! I also got to hike on Athabasca Glacier like you did and we also saw a few Bears :D I heard the Maligne Lake road is great for bear/wildlife spotting in the early morning and evening

[@ThroughMyLens]

So cool! We didn't see any bears but we had a great time!

[@1958zed]

Reminds me of my 1993 drive from Chicago to Fairbanks. The Icefield Parkway was perhaps the most scenic part of the trip and Athabasca Falls were raging when I was there. I may have to return.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Oh wow, I bet that was amazing. I agree that the Icefield Parkway was one of the best parts of the drive!

[@joedugan7239]

Your dad is very brave for looking over that bridge My wife and I love your videos

[@miriammitchell9677]

Thank uuu! I wait for your videos every weekend. So refreshing and a great way to end my weekend 👍

So glad you enjoy them, really appreciate that!

Sweet!!! My family was just talking about going to Jasper. Now I’m getting excited to plan the trip!

[@ThroughMyLens]

It is a beautiful place!

[@pjismydawg]

Thank You for the trip! What a beautiful world we live in. Lucky you have your Dad to travel with. I miss my Dad every day

[@realtymatters]

Nice clip. There are restrooms at the bottom level of Icefield Center(toward the end of the opposite direction of ticket counter). Your clips gave me lots of ideas of visiting. The ride down to the glacier and the walk were very unique experiences indeed. Thanks for making the clip! Awesome!

[@SherrieAllen]

Oh my gosh, there is nothing on this video that isn't stunning. Visiting is on my bucket list now! I did the skywalk at the Grand Canyon and I was so scared I don't remember much of what I saw. What I remember is the feeling of relief when I was back on land. Thanks for sharing this adventure. I've never heard of this park but seeing it through your lens - yep, definitely want to go.

[@wildzenventures]

Wow, so much beauty in this video! Amazing

[@terizumbusch8408]

I'd be terrified but I think I would still do it. Odds are definitely in my favor that it's not gonna collapse. Just beautiful video thank you so so much.❤

[@ThroughMyLens]

haha I know what you mean, I had to think about it really hard to do it as well

[@kellyjohnson3617]

Wow! What an epic summer you had! Alaska and Canadian national parks. So much beauty and awe inspiring sights.

[@JJ-pc3fh]

No way would I do the skywalk!!! My legs were wobbly just watching this. Great info though. We’re one of 3 couples planning an 8 week trip to AK next Spring. So awesome to watch your videos. TY for sharing!!

[@TheWakatela]

Loving these father and son videos. I also gave a like👍🏽 for pops for dealing with the fear of heights. Let’s go Pops!!!

[@sandiandgregh]

Really enjoyed this video. I used to work the Spruce Meadows Masters horse shows (as a photographer) every September. When the show wrapped up, I headed into the mountains. Canmore, Banff, Lake Louise, Jasper. So beautiful. The drive from Calgary to Jasper is jaw dropping the whole way. My first visit to Alberta, I got stranded there on 9/11 but that's another story! Now that I've seen your video, I realize that I need to get back there soon. It's been too long.

[@jeffwilson2077]

Glad you and Pops got to hit the Jasper to Banff Highway on the way back from Alaska. One of the most beautiful drives in the world, and both parks are amazing, as are all the other national parks in the area!! Incredible adventures this summer!

[@aliwannigerry2060]

Great impressive footage capturing the beautiful alluring scenery as the gift of the mother nature that entice some of the viewers to keep on watching, thanks for sharing and bringing us to this wonderful relaxing place and stay safe always.

[@parfenyj]

👏👏👏bravo for Pops for defeating the fear of heights one battle at a time! That fear will be history soon enough💪

[@treytracytravel]

Awesome views, wildlife, and tours! Thank you for taking us along! We hope to get there someday!

[@veeriabroadcast]

I haven't been to a lot of nature sight country, been to new zealand and canada. Canada is by far the most beautiful country I have been to when it comes to nature. I would love to go there again.

[@ThroughMyLens]

It is an incredibly beautiful place!

[@DyanK614]

What a superb place! The scenery and wildlife were spectacular. I, however, would have stayed with Pops- no amount of coaxing or even $$$ would have made me get close to that walkway- it made me nervous even watching you on it despite knowing you would be fine since you made the video!! Thanks for sharing.

[@ThroughMyLens]

haha I know what you mean, it is pretty crazy for sure!

[@popshiking]

@DyanK614 I think I am getting a little better with some of my fears.

[@DyanK614]

I guess there’s hope for me yet!!!

[@ashvarma2486]

[@richbrindley8944]

My family spent our vacation in 2001 visiting Bannf and Jasper. We stayed at Beckers Chalet cabins on the Athabaska river just outside of Jasper. We did a side trip to Yoho National Park. You missed the gondola ride in Jasper. Thank You as the memories came back watching your video. Cheers🎉

Finally, been waiting for this since you announce it last year. Can't wait for the Banff episode.

So glad you liked it! We didn't spend much time in Banff unfortunately but I do have a video on the Icefields Parkway which includes some Banff

[@stefonthemove]

This is ridiculously beautiful!

[@zmarko]

Wow, (i think) we did the Columbia Glacier when I was a kid (or a similar one). Based on the vehicles, as they look exactly like I remember them. I remember being in the back of that vehicle while going down and then back up the 10% grade to access the glacier. Very cool memory.

[@zmarko]

Oh wow, that's a 33% grade to get onto the glacier? For some reason l, in my head I'm remembering 10%, but it was like 40 years ago. Lol

[@ThroughMyLens]

So cool that you got to do it as well! It was pretty crazy to drive out on the ice

[@markedralin9776]

you are so blessed you get to travel with you dad.

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Thanks for coming up here to Alberta. It is so beautifully in our provincial and national parks. The Rockies are so nice. I'm too scared of heights to go on the Sky Walk. Cheers! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🇨🇦

It is such a beautiful place, I would love to spend A LOT more time in Alberta!

[@californiahiker9616]

Thank you very much for this video, as always, well done! I’m with you, Pops…. there’s absolutely no way I’m going on that skywalk! I just barely made it across the Sundial Bridge in Redding! 😂

Have been enjoying watching your trip in Alaska and reliving our trip last year. We were scheduled to do this tour this past June, however, the tour was cancelled because of snow!

[@indylaura99]

I took my elderly parents to Banff can we drove up to the glacier. I highly suggest going at the beginning of June or just in June because there is still a lot of snow on the mountaintops and not a lot of tourists. I highly suggest the drive south of Canmore to Peter Lockheed provincial Park. It was absolutely stunning as well

[@licensedsalesassociatemich3157]

I love your videos. Like Pops, I am afraid of high, open spaces. I avoid climbing lighthouse stairs. I would be freaking out on that gondola ride you guys did in Canada - where Pops was brave enough to venture forth! I don't think it's the height that really bothers me, it's the thought of falling to my death. One time, I was on the roof of the World Trade Center Towers. No problem because the platform was not near the edge. However, I couldn't sit by a window inside of the Towers, just too high for me! I was also on the observation deck of the Empire State Building. Again, no problem because the wall was waist high, and there are iron bars to keep you from falling. Watching the heights in your videos makes me nervous! I was at Acadia National Park many years ago. I don't remember those cliff walks with all of the iron stairs and railings. Probably because I was too afraid to venture forth. It amazes me those are open since they have signs saying people have fallen to their deaths! I used to have a fear of walking across high bridges. However, my brother lived in San Francisco for many years, and I have walked across the Golden Gate Bridge many times without incident! When you are an old man, you will appreciate that you had the opportunity to spend this much time with Pops! Keep up the good work with your videos! Your videos give me the opportunity to explore so many places without having to leave home! If you are ever doing a video in Upstate NY (Cooperstown area) send me a note and we'll have you over for a burger on the grill at our summer cottage there!

Pops!! Have you looked into "PRP" platelets rich plasma injection? I've done it once for my shoulders 6 months ago. Taking no ibuprofen or anything, shoulders still hurt a bit no lie but I'm working on getting it again at almost 6 months. Better than steroid injections. ✌️ Wheelchair John in Idaho

How is it that you publish a 1080p? We are in 2024 already and any of the latest MacBooks with an M series processor can compress a 4K video quickly. There are 4K TVs almost in every home here in the US. Do you realize that 1080 resolution is 1/4th the quality of a 1080 video? I assume you do as a KZbinr and if you don’t I can give you the data that you can also google quickly. If I were a KZbinr I would NEVER EVER publish a 1080p video nowadays. The galaxy S23 already records 8K videos. My wife and I like your content and have been following you for years, please don’t ruin your channel because there are some of us out there who notice the quality difference of a 1080p video immediately; after all it is 75% less pixels.
