I’m so jealous, this road trip is bring back good memories. Back in ‘85 the folks and I took a road trip to Anchorage from Oklahoma. It was tight quarters we drove a 1985 Toyota 4x4 pickup camped out all the way and back, loads of fun. Have a safe trip.
What a charmed life! Y'all have worked hard to get to do this - Thanks for taking us along (Sorry to be late - I was under my WK again). Water leaks stink! Worse when its Cold! Glorious scenery! I hate interior squeaks and rattles too. Nice to have company along. Windshields aren't all they're cracked up to be. LIteBriteNationYukon'tGoThere!
It always amazes me that people are so shocked because the fact so many of us live in darkness and ice. The scenery and fresh air are totally worth it. It’s not easy , we can have snow on the ground for 6-8 months out of the year. You should’ve come in December when I gets dark at 16:15. The further north you go , the shorter the daylight gets until you hit complete darkness. The opposite happens in summer where the sun doesn’t set.
I appreciate you guys so much for sharing this journey with us!! So many beautiful things to see. Loving the video as always, much love and stay safe ❤❤💯🤙
Welcome to Canada and the Yukon! Hope you get to experience all we have to offer. Driven the dempster quite a few times, you should consider a winter front for your vehicles to keep the engine from freezing in the extreme cold and will help your heat warm in the vehicle, if anyone hasnt made that suggestion yet or you haven't seen them on the vehicles travellilng. (can be as simple as stuffing cardboard in front of your rad.) Safe travels.
In about 1972 I worked for a CB radio sales/installation/repair shop. One day a VW Microbuss stopped by. It looked like someone stood in front of it and used a machine gun on all of the sheet metal. In those days the AlCan Highway was not paved. It was all rocks, and every car you passed, or got too close to you tossed rocks your way. The usual practice was to cover the front of your car with a few sheets of cardboard. They had not done that and the damage was caused by all of the rocks hitting the front of the VW Microbus.
It's always interesting to see what you both are up to. Seeing you do this reminds me of my childhood. I lived in a northern community in Labrador that had no road access to the rest of the world. In the winter you had to fly. In the summer you can also take a boat. You get used to the cold. One winter/spring day we were outside playing. And my mom is yelling at us to get our coats on! It was 8 degrees but sunny so it seemed warm to us. We were just out digging a snow fort. It was easy to do that with just a shovel when the snow is several feet over your head. Snowmobiles were the main form of transportation. We used them with homemade sleds behind them to haul stuff including people behind the snowmobile. Have a fun safe trip!
So funny, I ran into your group at Pelly Crossing at that Selkirk convenience store. I was in that big 6" Lifted F350 Dually. I wish I had known it was LiteBrite Fam, I would have said something, but I was in a rush headed back to whitehorse. So I didn't pay attention and just went on my way.
Awesome adventure! Welcome to the great white north! We deal with that stuff 5-6 months of the year. You get used to the ice and drive like it's summer after a while. As for the windshield cracks, yea, I quite often successfully steer them to the side so they don't go into my view. I love extreme winter driving as do my teenage son and daughters who are practically pros a drifting on our winter roads. Looking forward to the rest of this trip!
I tell people all the time, I can’t advocate enough about the importance trail communication! Overlanding, wheeling, trail riding, convoying, whatever. Communication is so important. Great video by the way guys!
Kevin and Brittany, welcome to Canada... were winter last 7 months. Please were a fleece lined "tuque" (or real fur winter hat) plus a merino wool scarf to keep you warm. You also need to wear a merino wool top and bottom underwear piece and socks. Finally you need as outer layer and insulated/waterproof/breathable winter jacket + pants + boots with Thinsulate and Gore-Tex. This is how we enjoy cold winter weather.
I am very impressed and surprised! I watch offroad videos all the time and this just stands out and is very adventurous, our of the ordinary. Thanks for taking this trip as it's very much an outlier and something that really just gets me energized.
Have to say I really enjoy watching you both. I have a 23 BRap and have gotten a few ideas off of you. Stay safe and warm. This is a trip of a lifetime. Color me jelly
I watched you guys from your beginning and enjoyed your journey. This trip is something else, top notch and this is just the start. Can’t wait to see your next episode. Thanks
BRRR !!! -35 The general rule of thumb when gas stations are few and far between.... fuel up at every one. Enjoying my anti-freeze. while watching you in you.
Drove my old FJ to Banff one winter...holy hell the gravel on the roads was brutal! Took out a headlight and a windshield. Those truckers are no joke either!! They haul ass and don't give a shit ha ha
At -30 it's best to block off most or all of your grill. The heater will work alot better. Other vehicles sell or have a cover over the radiator for cold. I drove the Alcan in February of 1999 it's a experience.
The bronco Raptor has active grill shutters, so it should be keeping them shut for aerodynamics reasons unless there is enough heat to justify opening them.
@4x4Ranch It also has a rain metering system inside the vehicle to measure precipitation. Water inside vehicle means alot of rain. No water inside means good weather. 🤣
Did that highway in the fall & it was awesome. The twilight at 11:30 PM was a bit weird because it stayed that way till 4 AM & then the sun came back up. The road from Kitwanga Junction to the Yukon is really cool. Get gas whenever you see 1 because the next 1 might be closed.
I did the Cassiar highway ( highway 37 I assume is the highway you were on also up to Watson Lake ) during the middle of summer years back, actually in my case coming down from Alaska and took the Cassiar rather than just back track on the Alaska highway. That is a very scenic highway and did a side trip to Telegraph Creek at Deese Lake and also out to Stewart and up to the glacier. Pretty neat as one gets up north far enough during the summer that you can see to drive without the headlights doing anything for you ( Dawson City and top of the world highway and on north in Alaska ) I bet your trip was fantastic during the fall colors !
@@charlesb4267 That was the scenic loop. Nanaimo-Port Hardy-Prince Rupert-Kitwanga-Watson Lake-WhiteHorse. From there back to Dawson Creek & across Alberta through Cold Lake to Meadow Lake Sask. Down to Regina & back through the Crow's Nest Pass to BC. Wandered through the Kootenays over to Lilloett & back to Vancouver.
@@jeffwisemiller3590 That's quite a loop you took, I would imagine you probably drove through Grande Prairie as I don't live too far from that town. Speaking of taking the ferry to Prince Rupert, I was just a young kid in the very early 1970's when we went to Prince Rupert and then on the ferry down to the Island and more than likely Nanaimo. In fact when I was out at Stewart area I got talking to a fellow who was working in the area and he was well versed on the ferry's and said that ferry I had been on way back was the very same ferry that sank a number of years ago now in that more then likely preventable accident.
Went to the Northern Canadian territories back in the late '70's, the Yukon, etc in mid December. Minus 45 below zero (F) during the day! Was told by the old timers that frostbite would occur on bare skin within 30-60 seconds. You had to have your face covered up all the time. So cold the snowy roads were not slick, the snow was like sand! We were in plain old cars and two wheel drive pickups. When we got back down to the border crossing into the states it was Zero degrees and it felt warm! Stay bundled up if you go outside. If you can't keep the frost off of the inside of the windows, you might need to put some cardboard in front of your radiator! The adventure up there - you will never forget! Stay safe!
Be careful at night of the Bison and moose, if you hit a moose alot of the time you knock the legs out from under them and the torso ends up through the windshield, If you are going to Alaska you may not be able to go through Dawson City, the border crossing is usually only open in the summer. If you can find one in Canada get the MilePost its a detailed mile by mile map of Alaska and the Alaska Highway, pull outs, sights, gas, ... But in the winter there is not much open. I always fill up when ever I have a chance when I get close to 1/2 full. Overnight lift your windshield wipers up so they don't freeze to the window, winter windshield wipers are the best, may want to pick up a spare pair. Done the Ak to Texas trip several times, 5,537 miles one way. 🙂
So. This is on of my favourite videos. I gotta say I love all your videos but this is my territory. Wish I saw you guys driving through. Epic trip. Enjoy. Come back in the spring or summer. Tuk T yuck Tuck 😂
My aunt and uncle used to live in a mining camp at mile 1111 of the Alaska highway, just past Yellowknife. Cool place to visit in the summer, when the sun barely sets.
Its an amazing drive. I drove from Tennessee to the Artic Circle north of Fairbanks Alaska then to Kodiak Island and lived in Kodiak for 3 years and it was incredible, except I did the drive in June, LoL
I used to go to lake placid new york for years to lake clear where it would get to -21F. Driving in that stuff is no fun. Super duper beautiful... mountains... snow... but those twisty roads are slippery and often impassable. I don't even know what to suggest about the windshield folks, other than maybe duct taping it with clear tape so cold does not get through. On my motorhome I had a rock hit my windshield en route from Florida to Moab Utah... I had to drive 1000 miles from texas with a whistle... thence from Valley of Gods to moab and thence to colorado silverton area and then all the way back home in florida. Only thing that stopped water seepage and the whistle was good old scotch tape on inside and outside.
Hello guys thanks for the adventure some of will never have the chance to do loving it and have safe travels can't wait for the rest of your beautiful trip enjoy.
I towed my Jon Boat to Tuktoyaktuk last July from Texas 4,700 miles one way. Then traveled 2000 miles by boat alone through the Northwest Passage. The Dempster and Arctic Highways are amazing. I am so glad you are getting to see that country. Ageless Wanderer @ TH-cam
So cool seeing you guys run through my neck of the woods. I live near the chainsaw carvings. It’s a different experience going in winter. The gravel on the roads is rough.
Yes, the Canadian border can be tough, Aye. My Parents drove up to Barrel Alaska some 25 years ago, so seeing some of the places brings back the memories they shared with me. So thanks for sharing this adventure. They drove to Prudhoe Bay then somehow got over to Barrel to the Northern most point. But they were crazy senior citizens. Hope Kevin figures out the shrinkage thing. Kevin you're even looking shorter in the videos. Hey, please remember safety first. You are in a very hostile environment that will kill you in minutes if you F up. So don't. My famous advice.
I am guessing your parents drove up to Prudhoe during the summer ? ( I am curious what they were driving ) , and from my understanding the only practical way to get to Point Barrow ( yes that is the name of the actual furthest northern point of Alaska ) is to fly there and land by the small village of Utqiagvik and drive the short distance up to Point Barrow. The reason I've even heard of the place is that my dad and step mom flew up there to get married some 30 + years back and that was during the summer so full daylight 24/7. I've driven part way up the Dalton myself, a ways north of the arctic circle but due to an untrusted mechanical issue turned around rather then risk going to Prudhoe as I had no team of vehicles and people to back me up. I hate the cold but ironically grew up and live in northern Alberta, not all that far from the mile zero of the Alaska highway sign you saw in this video. Go to google map and type in "Point Barrow Alaska" and you can see where your parents ended up.
@@charlesb4267 My parents had a modified Jeep Wagoner and toed a modified trailer. I do think they flew over to Barrel. They had many pictures taken from small airplane rides they took. They were with a group and there was even a mechanic along. There is also another youtuber that drove up to Prudhoe that I had been following www.youtube.com/@evazubeck
Hi guys I love these type videos. You guys are great. As for the leaks on my Jeep hard top there was small holes in the seal presumably to allow air out. I used a small set of needle nose pliers to open them carefully and inserted pieces of vacuum tube inside this swells the flattened seal allowing it to seal better. My Bestop soft top doesn’t leak a drop. I hope this helps. Pass this along could help a lot of people.
Remember everyone. The Roadkill guys drove an old Ranchero to Alaska to go ice racing. Just saying.
Yes!! I love that episode 😂
That was old ford. Not the new “we don’t care about the customer “ ford of today
@@matthoward923 you completely missed the point
That was a great episode
The old days of roadkill were a lot better than the current ones
Brit: “I love you!”
Kevin: “that’s fine.”
Awesome!
As a local, it's awesome watching you guys drive through and experience our part of the world! Welcome to the North!
"Knees weak, palms are sweaty, vomited on my sweater already" LOL!! Epic line!

I appreciate you guys so much for sharing this journey with us!! So many beautiful things to see. Loving the video as always, much love and stay safe ❤❤💯🤙
Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦 you crazy kids!
The cold is just simply the best weather all year. The snow just makes it that much better. Can’t ask for anything other. It’s the best.

So the Bronco Raptor actually has automatic shutters over the intercooler and radiator to help manage engine temps! 😊 So no need for anything else!
As a Canadian, I hate going back through the boarder lol. Going to the land of the free is a much better experience and straight forward
Always fuel when you get somewhere, and never miss the opportunity to pee. I never get below 1/2 tank of fuel.
I was born and raised in Dawson Creek. Glad that you found the mile zero post and not just the traffic circle :)
And I noticed in the video a letter has fallen off the sign, haven't been through Dawson in some years now ( live north of Grande Prairie )
Your content always Rocks!!!! You both are such Awesome Adventures! Both of you always placing a smile on my face!

As usual with Mel parking repairs done right and Amazing vehicle line up....Enjoy yourselves!!
As someone that lives up north where the -40 is normal, I enjoyed the amazement at our special wiper fluid being left outside all winter hahaha.
I was thinking the same thing, they start selling it here in about October...
-40° that's T shirt weather.
-60 that's where I throw on a coat.
That is my weekly commute and I think my coat is still packed.
You guys are awesome. Totally, you two are best!!!
I tell people all the time, I can’t advocate enough about the importance trail communication! Overlanding, wheeling, trail riding, convoying, whatever. Communication is so important. Great video by the way guys!
Thanks for bringing us all along. I'm nice and warm back here in Utah. Jealous, but not Jealous. But the scenery is beautiful.
Enjoyed the video, I really like the bronco raptor. I am enjoying the raptor content.
Fun Fact -40 Fahrenheit and -40 Celsius is the same thing. Enjoy your trip further up North than I've ever been. Welcome to Canada Eh

Little helpful tip for water leaks and " shrinkage" is to use Vaseline on the rubber seals.

There is also another youtuber that drove up to Prudhoe that I had been following

Hi guys I love these type videos. You guys are great. As for the leaks on my Jeep hard top there was small holes in the seal presumably to allow air out. I used a small set of needle nose pliers to open them carefully and inserted pieces of vacuum tube inside this swells the flattened seal allowing it to seal better. My Bestop soft top doesn’t leak a drop. I hope this helps. Pass this along could help a lot of people.
