A Wednesday drop? That’s a new one.

[@vvvvmmmm11]

10:38 Supermans birthplace!! Robert you have outdone yourself many timess over!

[@debbiewerner7124]

That was crazy amazing. What a thrill I’m sure to do this. ❤

[@matthiasjurcik3871]

amazing, so beautiful this place

[@vvvvmmmm11]

Robert Unbelievable!!!

[@hobohomme]

Awesome colors!

[@NullUndefined]

The view is incredible 🤩

[@FlyMeAirplane]

Very cool, thanks for sharing!

[@glendasharp5057]

Robert, I went to Alaska in May 1987, and we drove by the Mantanuska Glacier en route from Valdez to Anchorage. I am so sad, but not surprised, by how much the glacier has shrunk in height & depth over the past 40 years. When I saw it, it was "flowing" up among the peaks. Nontheless, your video was stunning. Thank you for taking us along.

[@Patrick_Ross]

I’ve watched the glacier shrink in depth over the years (downwaisting) but it is one of the few glaciers in Alaska not rapidly receding.

[@juergenstraub]

Great views

[@dianabalto]

Gosh that is worth seeing it ! We'll consider this tour next year when we visit AK.

[@JayTheNomad]

Now this was a pleasant mid week surprise 😬😬😬😬

[@louise3993]

I feel so bad for you Robert. You had to endure such icy conditions on that hike. The dangers of pitfalls. I can’t believe the horrible conditions. Plus you had to wear a helmet that did not look like it kept your head warm. You had to look at drab grey and blue colors. You had to drink cold pure water instead of warm water. The noisy crunches every time you took a step. Heck you could not enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The tragedy of it all. Thanks for taking one for the team. I guess someone had to. 😂 In all seriousness that had to be epic. Super jealous. One day I will get back there to get to walk on a glacier. So happy to got to do it. 😊

[@_____J______]

You put it so like you'd be his waifu or mommy

[@TheBruceGday]

Robert seems to have enjoyed it. He says it was a highlight.

[@CindyGer]

Great video. I wouldn’t have been so brave with my fear of falling so I appreciate coming along on this tour.

[@gordonquickstad]

Great video!

[@henryi9738]

The glacier landscape seems otherworldly ; like stepping into a Martian polar ice cap. 🥶❄

[@VolcanoTimeLapse]

Fantastic! Your selfy stick is cool..u can't see it. :)

[@CyclingAlaska]

Love the video, Robert! It was a pleasure taking you out on the glacier that day. Thanks for joining us! In this video, you really give us an idea of what it's like to be on Matanuska Glacier. Even though I am out there several times a week, I never get tired of the experience and leading others to discover the joy and excitement of walking ON glacial ice.

[@robertschaefer3223]

Traveling Robert on a Wednesday? Has the world gone mad?

[@ireneluciow455]

A very enjoyable walk with you! Wow the clouds were awesome over the glacier making it an even more spectacular video.

[@tydanum]

Absolutely fabulous, thank you so much for taking us to places we dream of, main reason, we are now too old 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇬🇧

[@maxineoliver7404]

Love the Wednesday video! Beautiful scenic views! It all makes you want to experience the same glacier hike that you and Illy did-fantastic! Thanks for sharing, Robert!🏞

[@Travelmaryandblue]

Wow what an amazing trip I’m going to binge watch all segments be safe & blessed my friends & thanks for so many hours of entertainment & education 😊

[@C-TOS]

Another Alaska solid to the MVP KZbin Power Couple

[@Patrick_Ross]

Driven past Matanuska Glacier 100+ times and always stopped at a pull off along the Glenn Hwy to admire the view. I’m driving to Alaska next summer and thought about taking the tour….until I saw the $350 price tag….yikes! There are far less expensive alternatives with other companies but one I looked at said “ages 9-70”. I’m 74 and in far better shape than most people half my age. This old geezer hikes or walks at least six miles per day and just hiked 54 miles during a five day stay in Yosemite!😂

[@Chips2323]

A Hump Day Video, now that was like getting a surprise gift on Christmas Day, Thank You Robert and Ileana, be safe on the road again.

[@vvvvmmmm11]

8:31 Amazing

[@loydvlogs592]

Love the extra video this week. The glacier was amazing!

[@CruisinwiththeColemans]

WOW - that's what we say with every Alaska video. The scenery is absolutely incredible!

[@captziggy1]

Wow what an adventure . Thanks again for taking us with You .

[@kentseverance6733]

I did a bunch of work several years ago, and drove by this many times without stopping. We did stop however at Eureka and had lunch or coffee several times. I think it would have been a wise choice to do what you did! Please note that I thoroughly enjoy you sharing your adventures with us!!

[@gi169]

Awesome Mr. Robert, good to see another video. Thank you. 🍻

[@KelleyTexas]

That was amazing! I definitely made a note of this tour if I ever make it back to Alaska.

[@clifdavis9013]

Unrelated to this video, but I have noticed on a couple of past videos, when traveling through Georgia, you’ve stopped for sausage at SL sausage company near Cordele. Just FYI, they’ve opened another location in Macon. It’s probably less than a mile off of I-475 exit 9 (Zebulon Rd.) Figured it would be less out of the way for you, if heading north through Mid-Ga.

[@chrislebleu6821]

Awesome!! Thank you so much for the extra video! It really feels otherworldly to walk on a Glacier! Like a comment below mine said, thank you for bringing us along, I would've probably fell on the ice many times if I went here! 😆

[@sammy7068]

very coo0l

[@elmandalorian6671]

Very pleasant Wednesday surprise!

[@patrickpatterson896]

That is so beautiful. The glacier did not look like it was set up for calving but wondered if you experienced any while on your hike. Boy, I am definitely feeling a road trip in that beautiful state to spend some quality time. Thank you for the vlog!

[@Twobarpsi]

Incredible adventure Robert!!

[@KristoferOlsson]

Thank you for the extra video.

[@VT-ix5oh]

The shot of the bumby clowds and the glavcier looks like ice above and below

[@najruqwi7008]

Yes it does look like Rura Penthe the klingon ice world prison 👍

[@chipnchatter]

How exciting! Can’t wait to watch.

[@LittleEvoLady]

That’s amazing 🤩

[@imagseer]

Very brave of you Robert to go on a glacier for us after that broken leg you had at the start of the year! It looks so interesting though.

[@user-ti9ef7fv1v]

ЛАЙК !!! 😊👍

[@lindareiner3856]

Cool! Glad you ditched the weird music in the beginning.

[@TerryB751]

Amazing trip. Although I don't think I'd want to drink the dripping glacier water with all that dirt on the glacier. Seems like a bad idea.

[@luisclark7123]

So cool robert short but nice video

[@chefHolly33]

Robert you are one of my favorite channels to watch, and I love the content, why you cut the food so much. I really like seeing the food when you’re in the restaurants and when you cook. Could u give us some more on the food?

[@garymay3826]

Not quite the crystal clear glacial runoff water ya hear about huh? Besides all the sediment, I saw Ozzy Osborn take a leak on that glacier on his show with his son jack. 😂😂

[@sandym198]

Love the video. Incredible views! You are such an adventurer. Take you for sharing these awesome experiences with us. Not a fan of the new music at the start so glad it finished with great tunes.

[@Cooper127]

Another great video of beautiful Alaska and mother nature. Not sure I would feel stable with those chains on my feet. Did you actually feel any traction?

[@TravelingRobert]

Yes, they work really well.

[@Bob-WannabeRVr]

Reminds me of the original Superman movie also, scenes at Krypton (Fortress Of Solitude)…

[@jimmybee7966]

I wonder what that "black line" is going across the sky at 9:13? Strange looking contrail or shadow... Anyway, everyone on that glacier is far braver than I! :-)

[@TravelingRobert]

Seems to be a contrail shadow

[@rambalram2610]

9:57 How did you manage to capture the sound of the boots on ice ? RODE mic or go-pro media mod alone..??? 🤔🤔 Nice capture though.. feels cinematic..🤩🤩🤩

[@TravelingRobert]

Media mod

[@olivierdevries01]

Robert - So did you try the melted water from the glacier??

[@AbesZinai-cj2zr]

J'ai essayé de vous contacter pour plus de connaissance , merci ❤❤❤

[@pammartin3554]

Who is the gal that we see in some of your episodes????

[@TravelingRobert]

My better half

[@SIDEROPORTAS]

Unfortunately, next generations may not be able of visiting a glacier 😢due to climate change.

[@SIDEROPORTAS]

May not be able

[@beckyciarametaro6593]

The music made me sick !

[@yawndave]

Walking on a glacier...how cool (ha ha) is that? It has to be one of the absolute highlights of the trip. What an other-worldly experience!Those creaking sounds as you're walking along are a little ominous--almost like the ice is cracking under your feet. I've walked on a glacier once, but it was about 2000 miles south of there in Great Basin National Park--a very different experience to be sure. Looking forward to the next chapter in the Alaskan adventure...until then, happy trails!
