TrailRecon is one of the few channels that I hit like before I hit play. What a beautiful ride.

My favorite book series of all time is the Sackett family.

Brad, Thank you for taking the time to share such an adventure. My health is such that a lot of the trips you take are out of reach. Its great to live the adventure through your posts.

Ahhh, all the memories of past trips are flooding my brain.... guess I just need to go back again!

Brad, your drone camera work is getting so much better You are getting some stunning drone footage!! Well done! 😎

It is wild just how large British Columbia is. Im glad you guys made it to the ocean.

As an example Alberta is just a little shy of the size of Texas, BC on the other hand is the size combined of Texas and Michigan together to give you some perspective. Yes Ontario and Quebec are much larger yet. The gist is that Canada was just sliced up into fewer pieces of a pie but makes for some large landscapes within a border.

That's awesome..I'm a rookie enthusiastic of the outdoors..have no experience driving of road ..or camping..my jeep is a normal vehicle nothing fancy I will love to drive this amazing country before I die

Holy smokes, what is that drone Shawn is running, it looks like something out of a Terminator movie. Does it carry Hellfire missiles too?? LOL. Great adventure guys.

Such a great journey, thanks for letting us come along for the ride.

I am sure you have planed for it for the further. But just in case you didn’t, make sure you don’t miss Hyder, Alaska and the Salmon Glacier. 😊

Great video! It brought back some good memories from when I was a teenager in the early 80's. The town was so much more back then with its shops, pool, skating rink(where I was teaching kids to skate). It even had a movie theatre where I saw the 'Rocky horror picture show' for the first time! Looking forward to your next video.

Brad, in a future coffee one take, could you go over the lessons learned on setting up Doc for this trip? What worked, what didn't work as planned, and what would you do differently.

Love....Love....Love it. Wish I can do something like this one day. For now, I live through your videos Brad!!

One on a strict Mediterranean diet while the other has never seen a piece of red meat or comfort food he would turn down😂

Iam already dreaming of being in such a lovely place in my life time...guys enjoy your time togeather ...lovely episode

I gotta say I have really enjoyed following along on this journey. A definite bucket list trip for me!

What a cloab, please repeat. Good adventure and I watched both and enjoyed every second. Both did a great storytelling by keeping your own ways of videograph and storytelling. 👏

Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

This is AWESOME Brad .... You and Shaun are Such a GREAT Team !!!!! WHAT a journey this must have been ...This is NOW on MY bucket list !!!!!

Thanks for sharing this adventure. Beautiful scenery and challenging terrain for sure. Well done guys.

Beautiful aerial photography! This is a great series about an epic trip. Thanks for sharing!

Last summer on the road out to the old Cassiar mine I saw 2 wolf pups. Super cool. Then my woof had a great run on the old runway. Yeah, a huge tailing MOUNTAIN!

Brad, great video! This one made me nostalgic, it was cool to see you and Shaun roll through my old stomping grounds. I lived in a small gold mining camp (Erickson Gold) 14 km from Cassiar and took the school buss from the mining camp to Cassiar where I went to school. If I remember correctly when I was in 11th grade (1988) the total school population was 94 students (grades 8 -12). I left there in the summer of 88 and the town closed down in 92 I think. I live in Colorado Springs now but sure do miss those Cassiar Mountains! I hope to meet you at one of the overland expo events in the future. Great content, keep it up!

Incredible video, thank you for taking us on this adventure with you.

A great journey!!! Such Fantastic scenery. I live tagging along on your adventures!!!!!! Look forward to more.

I love your selection of Audio Book, that is a great series!

As a California native living in Alaska now, I say the same thing about the lakes and rivers in the north all the time. It amazing to see nature without all the development.

I have dozens of Louis L’Amour audio novels…..they are the best. They transport your imagination to another time & place and the miles seem to melt away. I love this part of world, thanks for sharing. 👍👍

Looks great. What an amazing trip good for you !!!!

We are most definitely adding this trip to our wishlist of future adventures.

Greyling denote clean and cold water, nice trip Brad.

So much fun! Thanks!

Great video Brad… Keep them coming!!

If you never get stuck, how are you supposed to learn the limits of your vehicle? Take calculated risks with a buddy so you can be safe and confident when solo.

What an awesome adventure

Thanks Brad

Loving this series. ❤

I was where you are/going in 2015 on my motorcycle. It was beyond amazing. Enjoy. Be safe.

Just amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely a bucket list trip, I am from the east coast of Canada and have never been up to the Canadian territories before, I definitely want to do a trip like this at some point. Great to have a second vehicle and friend along when in these remote locations. Love the scenery.

I like the look of the trail. Looking forward to doing some thing like next year

Beautiful videos.

Are you ok my friend? I hope your well... Prayers going out to you!!!

Epic Brad 👍🏻👍🏻

I see you are running all amber auxiliary lights. Mind taking a moment to talk about it and why you chose this particular set up? Thanks, love your work. Good wholesome content to watch with the kids.

Remember he won't be going that way, as far as I know he won't be going into Alaska at all or that was not the plan he laid out. North of Whitehorse is where he will be headed unless the plan changed along the way. Back in 2006 I went up to Dawson City and across over into Alaska there on the top of the world highway to the Alaska highway, and then on up to Fairbanks and the arctic circle, then down to Anchorage, Homer, then around over to Tok to join up with the Alaska highway again and did that section you are referring to back to Whitehorse. That was the worst section then of the Alaska highway but was WAY better than what I have seen in videos in recent years with construction and messes everywhere in that area you refer to and its all due to perma frost I would think causing the road to fall to pieces.

Great trip Brad. On my drive out of Alaska it wasn’t semi’s it was rental RVers

Campground just north of teslin is right on lake for like $25 usually spots, but the truck pull out is right there for overflow if full

It would be nice to drop a fishin line in one of the epic rivers/lakes just to see if you can catch some dinner.

That sketchy bridge is almost like the TransCanada HWY. for Shawn

Brad those places are amazing. I just have a suggestion. You guys should take a mexican overlander so it could be the three amigos! Maybe Marco, or why not me. haha

Campspot at 13:17 looks really SASQUATCHY....

@thestorytilnow has been on way more sketchy bridges. 😂. Excellent video!

Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦

I'd love to attempt this trip in my '04 Jeep TJ. The biggest obstacle I see for it would be carrying enough jerry cans to make it from fuel stop to fuel stop!

Fuel becomes a slight challenge for us, it's something to be mindful of when doing this trip.

Very cool, definitely a bucket list trip. Thanks for sharing all of your lessons learned! I noticed your exhaust noise in your video, are you still happy with the sound level?

Great drone shots on the highway at the beginning. Edit after seeing the drone wow. I use a mini 2 professionally lol

I'm one of those semis .. you picked a time when ft Nelson route was closed due to fires so trucks going to Whitehorse have use that highway. The other way to whitehorse has better camping and amazing lakes. Check out summit lake bc, and Muncho

It is a lot more like a highway

Nice beaverrrr...

This is easy to say from my comfy couch, but would it have made sense to flip your hitch around 180 degrees in that ditch crossing? That way it would have pointed up. Your camper would’ve been at a weird angle for a bit, but you might not have gotten stuck.

Those Truckers are on MONEY time…..a good rooofer lollllllll

awesome video also im calling you 4x4 paul wall :)

I see in your videos you and Shaun using some sort of two way radios, I am just wondering what kind of radios they are and how much coverage they give.

Is Shawn doing air strikes with that’s drone 😂😂

Also Brad..... Lobbie BFGoodrich to make a true to size 37-11.50 AT and MT Yell at them if you must....but get that done..... White Letters Out of course....

That's a cool Mercedes Benz 1124 truck, not a Unimog.

10:25 I noticed you've been using OnX Offroad lately.. You used to always use Gaia GPS .. Do you like ON X better? I personally tried both and I found ON X to be easier to use and to find stuff. If I am remembering correctly (it's been a while) there were just way too many layers for me on Gaia. I like the simplicity of OnX Offroad.

Hey Brad, What antenna are you using for your 2 way radio

Brad, How do you get your patches stick to the Hothead Headliner?

How are you all getting the patches to stick up on the roof like that ? 😮

HI BRAD & SHAUN 👋 BREATHTAKING SCENERY COLORS LANDSCAPES VIEWS COLORS & DRONE FOOTAGE VIDEO 📹 GLAD YOU BOTH MADE IT SAFELY OVER & BACK WHERE YOU HAD A RESTACK THE LOGS / WOOD TO GET PAST THERE .

BE SAFE ☺️ 🙏HAVE FUN ☺️ 🙏 ENJOYED VERY MUCH ☺️ 🙏GOD BLESS YOU BOTH ALWAYS ON YOUR ADVENTURES ☺️ 🙏THANK YOU AGAIN !❤☺️ 🙏

Just seeing you walk around out there and knowing there are some pretty bad boys lurking around, the big furry brown bear type. I remember a guy I sold a 44 mag to just for this reason, he was going to Alaska and wanted to make sure to protect himself. Hope you guys had some protect, I realize you prepared for that with the vehicles just hope you prepared to protect yourselves LOL.

@charlesb4267

The only protection easily obtainable and don't have to jump through hoops over is buying bear spray. As Brad said before the real video series started on this trip, he passed on trying to bring a shot gun over the border and like so many in the US they do not realize we can NOT carry a side arm unless you are the law or in certain key jobs that put you out alone in a forest setting and would be all sorts of red tape to ever get to that point. We have not had a right to protect ourselves for many many years, we can't even legally protect ourselves with a long gun if someone broke into our house and was trying to murder the occupants. To add to this as of two years ago our Communist liberal government put a STOP to all side arm sales period, only the law can be issued a side arm as no civilian is now allowed to buy a side arm. Any side arms can NOT be passed down from a current holder to their children, the government will then take such items away and if they hear of a person who has passed away and they know has legal possession of side arms, the RCMP have the right if you can imagine to break into the dead persons house and take the firearms. This is much like world war 2 and the SS coming door to door to take all weapons away from its citizens. In any event I thought you might be curious to hear the current reality of Canada and its lovely government.

First🎉

Your camping spot on day 7 next to river is what I picture where I want to be. Driving you can great views but the drone really made the views epic.

Hey Brad, When are you guys going to calgary?

Is that the third time Brad has got stuck looks like the same ditch as before.

legitemately sketchy bridges haha

Thank you! It was a good asset to have when spending this much time in remote camping areas, performed very well.

Just wondering if you guys used the gmrs radios or does Canada use different frequencies? Or does Canada use the same GMRS frequencies as the US.?

Brad, having front lockers did not help you get out of the challenge you encountered at the bridge? It makes me thinks twice to overland solo! :(

When you got hung up crossing the wooden bridge, did you question your decision to go with 35" tall tires?

37s would let the vehicle cross more easily, but that trailer hitch was going to hit unless it got a lift and bigger tires, too.

With what camera do you record your video when you are recording while walking?

Sorry Brad, that's not a Unimog.
