I'm so proud that indigenous stories are being passed down even to non native. As a native to the US we still unfortunately have to keep some to ourselves. I'm Choctaw/Cheek Cloudrunner Clan part of the Bear Clan MOWA Rez SE Alabama. Thank you for presenting their stories and letting him tell his on his own words. That means more then you know.
Dont you see they always victimize us in their imagery?! Alaskan natives raided russian ships and defeated them but oh no we can't talk about that we have to act like they were treated horribly. I'm so sick of this crybaby parade my people are taking part in!!!! Wake up!!! Make them tell about all the times we whooped their ass not about how we some little b*tches ffs.
Lol, I don't think it would matter because alot of people who had genuine interest in travel within these places had been turned away from any interets of travels there! I can emagine controls where involved with that process! Why interest people to make them have no interests there?
I saw the canoe during a local school trip in 2005 (I’m from Laxkwalaams). Very beautiful and easy to overlook from a distance, like a log covered in moss. It’s quite a ways in and up. The elders who served as guides gave us 2 scenarios to explain why someone left it to decay: 1, the carver discovered a fault in the wood so he abandoned the canoe, or, 2, he passed away before completion so others left it out of respect.
Enjoy your videos a lot and this was another fascinating one. Nerd alert, the stone house is likely Hudson's Bay Company post rather than Russian. Governor Etholen leased the SW coast of Alaska to Hudson's Bay for trade with the Tlingit, Tsimsian and Haida for furs in the 1840s. The Bay might have hired Russian speaking people to run trading posts from the Russian America Company, but the architecture is very English Cottage style. Russia was afraid that gold rushers would come and take their territory like happened in Spanish California, after the Russians left Fort Rossiya and sold it to John Sutter and in 1849 there was drama on the Russian River. In 1867 Russia "sold" Alaska to the United States to prevent Britain from taking it after the Caraboo and Fraser River gold rushes filled BC's interior with people from around the world.
Rare quality for TH-cam and beyond. I am a retired, award-winning photojournalist, and I wish I had Dustin’s talents. It seems every new video is better than the last, with more astonishingly beautiful vistas and fascinating details. I admire his gentle storytelling that takes a leisurely, circuitous route to its destination. There’s no need for a hundred cuts a minute. And perhaps Dustin’s greatest talent as a journalist is finding great people to tell their stories and those of their people and towns and environs. You are a journalist, in the best, traditional meaning of the word, and I mean it as high compliment.
Wow, what a privilege to get to read a comment like this. Thank you so much. I definitely have a lot to learn, both from the places I visit, and how to tell their stories, but I do put my heart into each of these. Thank you for such a generous compliment.
There are so many things that make what you do and this channel special Dustin. The interviews, the connection with the history and seeing it in person are just some of it. Thank you for sharing your experiences. (I'm still jealous but happy to live vicariously)
@@Destination_Adventure Dustin I just had my car repossed so I've been stuck at home slipping into a depression and started watching your adventures and I must say your videos have given me a peace to help me get through this tough time. Thanks a million!!! If you need a partner hit me up! 😜
I love the fact that you were able to document a piece of history that only existed orally through generations! You are such a positive influence, and I greatly look forward to your videos every week.
Killer drone and camera work as usual. Wonderful talk from the man in this one. Very insightful. Much respect to you for keeping these locals under wraps.
I loved the history lessons! Thank you to the man that agreed to be filmed! History from a local is so precious. Thank you, Dustin for taking us along! What a fun adventure!
Your adventures are great but it's the interviews and the stories you relate through the interviews with locals that make it the full package. Amazing that the stone building is in such good shape. The tree roots will, in the long run, be the force that brings the walls down.
You knocked another one out of the park, Dustin! The scenery is always stunning and serene, but it's when you get to interview locals that always keeps me glued to your vids! Hearing his story, hearing about his ancestors, what it was like, and the history we'll never see in books just make your adventures all that much more sweet. Once again, thank you, Dustin, for taking us on your journey.
I was at that stonehouse about 50 or 60 years ago with my Dad. We were on a boating trip to another place not far away. Also worked in Kwinnamas which you passed by and did a inflatable boat trip (12 footer) from Iceberg bay on the Nass River to Prince Rupert way back in the 70s. Great trip, your rough weather reminded me of how hard that was on the legs. We stopped in Port Simpson for a rest and walk around to stretch our legs and then continued on. took us 5 hrs from the Nass to Rupert.
Thank you for all your hard work in bringing content that allows many to explore vicariously through you. Your videos are high quality and entertaining. You are a talented artist.
I never even knew Russia occupied Alaska. That house is an amazing piece of history, I really enjoyed that. Your channel is so underrated, man. Definitely one of my favorite channels on YT and I hope you get more recognition.
US Purchased Alaska off the Russian Empire for a pittance, as they thought it was worthless. Some of the largest natural resource reserves on the mainland if I've been told right.
@@purplemnkydshwshr Russia was in debt from war in the Crimea (think Charge of the Light Brigade). The major consideration was to not sell to the British who they had just been at war with.
I think there’s a creek on Vancouver island like that. It just disappears under the earth. Those ruins are fascinating, as well as the history behind them. I didn’t know that Russia owned a little chunk of present day British Columbia. This land was highly sought after, that is for sure! Thanks for another awesome episode.
Let's do it....Dustin Porter, this episode was the most magnificent, yet! Starting with rediscovered history and the people of the land, leading into beautiful cinematic shots with accompanying soundtrack, and then your exploration--which is you. Beaut! We are a homeschooling family currently in the Middle East and your channel has been encouraging and entertaining and so appreciated. You are doing an amazing job! On behalf of all adventurous homeschooling families, thank you for all of your hours and effort.
Dustin has probably figured this out over the years, but for you junior explorers out there: when you're looking for old settlements etc. THINK LAZY. Not because they were lazy of course, but almost everything was muscle-powered and calories were precious. Where did Dustin find the cabin? At the only suitable landing zone. Where did he find it? Steps away from that landing! The stones probably collected already broken from the beach where they wouldn't need to be hauled far at all. 'Laziness' can save you a tonne of time!
Dustin. I’m just repeating every one- but absolutely breathtaking and your stories are heartfelt. You have a talent for being able to find people and talk to them. YOU ROCK
I’m so glad you took us out there. I love abandoned places and looking for artifacts that explain how they lived. Thank you for your videos and please keep ‘em coming.
In the days before industrial logging with skidders and yarders and massive logging trucks, that little island was an ideal location for early logging companies. There is a good chance it was nearly clear cut as evidenced by the flat topped stumps both in the forest and on the beach. These types of islands were ideal because they was close to the ocean, by using it as the transport system for the big logs to be floated to market. The trees were cut and rolled the short distance to surrounding salt water. And after they were were finished they just left a giant mess of jumbled debris instead of a majestic fully intact ecosystem that stood before their arrival.
Dustin. I love hearing about the indigenous ways of living. The stories passed down from generations. So interesting and are important for all to hear. This episode is one of my favorites to watch. Thank you for sharing.
I started watching and instantly thought I was watching a professional film at a theatre. Your eye for filming is unbelievable and has come so far since the early days. Thanks again for sharing with us. 🤟😎
This was amazing, love that you learned about it from a local. You are documenting history in such a special way and loved the interview. Theses are the stories we all love from your channel. Thank you
Being able to document the Indigenous past is very much needed and beautiful that you were able to do so. So much of the history has been lost or not shared.
Watching this again 😊 love the history it's very touching 💖 and I love watching the older videos too it never gets old for me 😎👍 sending positive vibes your way Dustin I am glad you got the trailer back together again 👍💖 I see you soon on the next destination adventure 😎 sefe travels ❤
Your best episode yet. What an incredible history, and I love that you interviewed the indigenous people to learn the ONLY history of the place. Brilliant!
That hole in the wall is probably where the floor joists would have gone - there are probably a few of them. You would love the UK FYI - lots of old abandoned stone buildings like this, some of them hundreds of years old. Near where I grew up is a ruined Saxon period church around 1000 years old. The walls are still standing.
Been watching your videos for some time now from far away Scotland. They are a pure joy to watch and both the content and quality are top notch. The sheer beauty of the places you visit are breath-taking and the blend of history and culture you include really makes what you do something special. You enable those of us who cant be there a chance to see 'real' places and nature the way they should be seen. Many thanks for all your hard work and stay safe out there.
You should think about adding "kill nothing but time " to your send-off at the end. I'm from Tennessee, and that's how we were taught to say it down here. All three things. Just a suggestion. Love your channel bro, and look forward to your uploads every Saturday. Would love to be able to do what you do! Keep the Great content coming Dustin. Thanks man. 💪💯🤟
Yippie, Cold morning in Colorado Coffee And Dustin's Adventures! WOOP WOOP!! Love so many different places.. You show us so much we NEVER NEW.. Thank You SO Very Much. Be Safe as Always!
It's been a long time since I was so captivated by a video on TH-cam. What an amazing, gorgeous, wild, primitive and heart-breakingly beautiful place is the north coast of Alaska! I left the rain forests of British Columbia 15 years ago for the beauty of Nova Scotia, but nothing compares to this! I want to go there so badly now, although I know it will never happen, I can live vicariously through you with your tremendous videography. I am certain that your channel will grow far beyond your wildest dreams. I am sharing this far and wide. Can't keep such a treasure to myself. That stone house leaves no words. Incredible. Cheers and thanks for making my day.
Dustin, your adventures inspire and educate. I want to express my thanks at the time and effort you put into each episode. I learn from each one, and look forward to the next. This was one of my favorite episodes of all. Thanks!
Thank you for enjoying, and thank you for learning. That’s one of my favourite parts about this whole thing. I get to learn so much about these places, and then also share that with anyone that wants to learn it too. What fun :)
If you pause at 18:07 you can see the corner of the "do not injure" sign carved in stone. Referenced in a later video explaining that it is in fact one of four US store houses. interesting!
Man, your channel is my absolute favorite! Something fresh and exciting every week. The disappearing river was amazing and something I've never seen. Not to mention I get my Alaska/BC fix and motivation to get back to these places. Once you've been there you can't get it out of your head! The whales, glaciers, and untamed beauty/freedom of that land is unmatched. Thanks for what you do.
Just glad that area turned out to be vacant over the years, as it could've been developed into something large now days. But instead we have beautiful natural land. I've said it many times, hope that area remains as is for generations. All those stumps and horns makes me think someone dumped, either dumped there or in the ocean and it drifted there. Stay positive , channel will get some traction. ❤
Awesome vid Dustin! The elder gentleman was a very sweet gentle man. I could listen to his stories all day. But one thing that is not true of his story, is how the white man's name dies with him. My daughter's middle name "Ruth" has been passed down through 5 gen. that I know of, could be farther back. I told her if she has a daughter to keep that tradition going! Love the ruined building you came across, what beautiful still pictures could be taken of it. Maybe some of your still pictures you should sell on line, I am sure you probably have thousands. You could also make thousands ($). Thank you for taking us along on this journey! Until your next whip it time, stay awesome. Happy travels.
You continue to outdo yourself Dustin! Documentary and filmmaking skills leveling up every time! I love the history we learned, the new remote adventures and humor we love every video.
I love watching your channel. I have learned so much unknown history from your vids. Listening to these people on your channel telling their history of generations is so interesting. You deserve so much more recognition for your work of art and history.
In the building style of an old stone chateau, perhaps that hole in the stone wall has matching others. The floor joists were perhaps fitted into the holes, and the floor boards laid across them. 🤔 Another great adventure! Thank you. Stay safe sir, and maybe avoid those fermented berries!
Another great video! I'm not sure what I loved more, the little bit of indigenous culture, the crash and burn over the log, or just the fact that you keep it real and leave that stuff in your videos! Can't wait for the next one!
Another incredible story. You are the explorer, adventurer, and photographer that makes you one of a kind. Love watching your postings and wait for them every week. Thanks for taking us along.
Sweet,,, another great adventure Dustin. Its funny how the locals know who you are and respect what you do. Respect is the key. Another brilliant show . Thank You Peace, Keep the faith. Dean
Love these. When you speak to the local, and get their story. Absolute gold. Always stoked when your vid drops, but a bonus when I get to hear from a local about their life. Being such a legendary celebrity helps get them to talk I reckon. The biggest small channel on TH-cam. You deserve the million subscribers that are on the way. Love your work, mate. Keep it up. Rob, Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
Having these comments is just what gives me the confidence to ask for an interview. Once I find a candidate, it’s really just conversational. I try hard to make the videos good, but I’m also fortunate to have a serious interest in the subject matter. The perks of being my own boss I suppose. Choose the stories you like :)
Dustin. I so enjoy your videos. Found your channel a while ago so am catching up. So appreciate your respect for all and our shared history. Live the bits of humour you show. Missing my boat!
You sir are above the rest in research when it comes to one of your videos, great quality hands down I always watch your content before any others on my TH-cam channels
The opening under the floor level is an air vent to remove humidity from under the floor so that the floorboards stay dry. Every Russian house has those.
Hopefully I’ll hit that milestone one day. I do have a fun little merch line though :) I just try not to promote it too much in the videos. There is always a link in the description though.
What beautiful countryside and crazy that that one building is still standing I guess that goes to the craftsmanship and like you said the skill it took to build it I bet if it was warmer up there more in time during the year there would be cities and people everywhere because that place is just too beautiful to be left alone and thanks to God and nature it is thank you for taking me there take nothing but pictures leave nothing but footprints till the next one my friend. 👍
I tell everyone who will listen how great your channel is. We always learn something and it scratches the itch for my beloved west coast. We’re now in Michigan and I miss the PNW! Thank you Thank you. Your channel is the best on TH-cam!
A bit of native history, a mysterious river disappearance, an old stone house on a lovely island and all of it framed with beautiful imagery - Jackpot!
@@Destination_Adventure I cant stop thinking about what happened at the river - could it have been a small earthquake while you were underway on the water, that opened up a subterranean channel? I just love those nature / geological mysteries and want to figure out what happened - also because they are a little bit creepy (not in a supernatural way) for the potential hazard they may present at any given moment. Again, a brilliant episode all around! 👍
Have not watch the video I'm only about 4 minutes in but I really love video's like this it is History it's about someone Heritage and Culture a Great Think to learn for all of us as for when I get finished watching this video I well researched this subject matter even more .Thank You sir for this video and safe travels on your next adventure 🙏

Just glad that area turned out to be vacant over the years, as it could've been developed into something large now days. But instead we have beautiful natural land. I've said it many times, hope that area remains as is for generations.
All those stumps and horns makes me think someone dumped, either dumped there or in the ocean and it drifted there.
Stay positive , channel will get some traction. ❤
I look forward to each one
Once again great job.
Super interesting man!
Thanks for bringing us along.
❤️🤘😎
Best one yet. A big thank you to the OG locals for the leads. Though they pulled a fast one on you with that supposed honey hole though.
Awesome vid Dustin! The elder gentleman was a very sweet gentle man. I could listen to his stories all day. But one thing that is not true of his story, is how the white man's name dies with him. My daughter's middle name "Ruth" has been passed down through 5 gen. that I know of, could be farther back. I told her if she has a daughter to keep that tradition going! Love the ruined building you came across, what beautiful still pictures could be taken of it. Maybe some of your still pictures you should sell on line, I am sure you probably have thousands. You could also make thousands ($). Thank you for taking us along on this journey! Until your next whip it time, stay awesome. Happy travels.
That stone house was amazing. The whole island was beautiful. Thanks
You continue to outdo yourself Dustin! Documentary and filmmaking skills leveling up every time! I love the history we learned, the new remote adventures and humor we love every video.
I love watching your channel. I have learned so much unknown history from your vids. Listening to these people on your channel telling their history of generations is so interesting. You deserve so much more recognition for your work of art and history.
Thank you very much. :)
In the building style of an old stone chateau, perhaps that hole in the stone wall has matching others. The floor joists were perhaps fitted into the holes, and the floor boards laid across them. 🤔 Another great adventure! Thank you. Stay safe sir, and maybe avoid those fermented berries!
Just started watching. Beautiful, informative and entertaining. Thanks. 👍 Great Job!!
Man the Sun set while you were cruising around looking for . The crab pot and on the way to shore was Awesome.
That is Awesome I love the history of the Canadian people.
Thanks for taking us on these journeys
Cool stuff
Another great video! I'm not sure what I loved more, the little bit of indigenous culture, the crash and burn over the log, or just the fact that you keep it real and leave that stuff in your videos! Can't wait for the next one!
Another incredible story. You are the explorer, adventurer, and photographer that makes you one of a kind. Love watching your postings and wait for them every week. Thanks for taking us along.
Sweet,,, another great adventure Dustin.
Its funny how the locals know who you are and respect what you do. Respect is the key.
Another brilliant show .
Thank You
Peace, Keep the faith.

I had a wonderful time meeting the locals in that community.
Love these. When you speak to the local, and get their story. Absolute gold. Always stoked when your vid drops, but a bonus when I get to hear from a local about their life.
Being such a legendary celebrity helps get them to talk I reckon.
The biggest small channel on TH-cam. You deserve the million subscribers that are on the way.
Love your work, mate.
Keep it up.

Having these comments is just what gives me the confidence to ask for an interview. Once I find a candidate, it’s really just conversational. I try hard to make the videos good, but I’m also fortunate to have a serious interest in the subject matter. The perks of being my own boss I suppose. Choose the stories you like :)
Dustin. I so enjoy your videos. Found your channel a while ago so am catching up. So appreciate your respect for all and our shared history. Live the bits of humour you show.
Missing my boat!
Duder...D..this is one of the coolest finds I've seen on your adventures so far..easliy the oldest👍😁thanks for bringing us along mate!
Your content is all great! But that one is my favorite of all!
Again another outstanding piece of history told and Mother Nature sends her aproval!
That was a awesome video thanks so much. I really enjoy watching your channel
Thank you
Absolutely stunning ❤
You sir are above the rest in research when it comes to one of your videos, great quality hands down I always watch your content before any others on my TH-cam channels
Great video 📸😃
good adventure, that place is cool
Awesome adventure thank you for sharing
Beautiful, simply beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing...your hard work is greatly appreciated@
You’re very welcome
The opening under the floor level is an air vent to remove humidity from under the floor so that the floorboards stay dry. Every Russian house has those.
How does this channel not have a million followers is beyond me. You need some
merch; I’d totally buy a tee-shirt.
Hopefully I’ll hit that milestone one day. I do have a fun little merch line though :) I just try not to promote it too much in the videos. There is always a link in the description though.
What beautiful countryside and crazy that that one building is still standing I guess that goes to the craftsmanship and like you said the skill it took to build it I bet if it was warmer up there more in time during the year there would be cities and people everywhere because that place is just too beautiful to be left alone and thanks to God and nature it is thank you for taking me there take nothing but pictures leave nothing but footprints till the next one my friend. 👍
I love how you don't know all the answers and then you ask your audience, then I read the comments and discover so much more. 🥰🥰🥰🇨🇦💚💚💚
All these people teach me so many things. :)
thank you. amazing stories of forgotten history. beautiful scenery
I tell everyone who will listen how great your channel is. We always learn something and it scratches the itch for my beloved west coast. We’re now in Michigan and I miss the PNW! Thank you Thank you. Your channel is the best on TH-cam!
Another awesome adventure, ty for bringing B.C. to us!
That was an awesome adventure. Love the comic relief too. You’re very charming and engaging. Keep up the great work.
Thank you
A bit of native history, a mysterious river disappearance, an old stone house on a lovely island and all of it framed with beautiful imagery - Jackpot!
🍻
@@Destination_Adventure I cant stop thinking about what happened at the river - could it have been a small earthquake while you were underway on the water, that opened up a subterranean channel? I just love those nature / geological mysteries and want to figure out what happened - also because they are a little bit creepy (not in a supernatural way) for the potential hazard they may present at any given moment. Again, a brilliant episode all around! 👍
Cool 😎 video 📹 👍
Have not watch the video I'm only about 4 minutes in but I really love video's like this it is History it's about someone Heritage and Culture a Great Think to learn for all of us as for when I get finished watching this video I well researched this subject matter even more .Thank You sir for this video and safe travels on your next adventure 🙏
Respect from Elders is very nice. Cheers!
Another amazing video ❤
