- Ever wondered what it's like to take an off road vehicle and driven it nearly 10,000 miles into the Arctic Circle? We took our new Ford Bronco Raptor on an overland expedition from Utah, to the Arctic Circle, over to Alaska, and back just to find out - and this is the first leg of the journey!
Join us, along with some Jeep Wranglers & Gladiators, on the adventure because if you thought the cold was the biggest issue we'd encounter...oh boy, are you wrong!

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!
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.
They’re on an insane “expedition” ok? Don’t wreck it for them.
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!
What an adventure! Thank you LBN for taking us along and posting your trip! Happy Trails to you both! Looks like the Raptor doesn't like cold weather!
Kev is totally right about directing the cracks in the windshield. Haha I do it all the time to make them last longer.
Always fuel when you get somewhere, and never miss the opportunity to pee. I never get below 1/2 tank of fuel.
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.
"Knees weak, palms are sweaty, vomited on my sweater already" LOL!! Epic line!
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
As usual with Mel parking repairs done right and Amazing vehicle line up....Enjoy yourselves!!
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.
i love these type of trip videos keep them coming!! Feels like i am traveling with you guys!!😂
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
Thank you for taking us along on your epic adventure!
Your content always Rocks!!!! You both are such Awesome Adventures! Both of you always placing a smile on my face!
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!
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.
Kick ass adventure, thanks for taking us along
Awesome video - thank you for taking us along!
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!
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.
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
Enjoyed the video, I really like the bronco raptor. I am enjoying the raptor content.
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!
Thanks for bringing us all along. I'm nice and warm back here in Utah. Jealous, but not Jealous. But the scenery is beautiful.
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.
😁🤙 No worries, but rad that you saw us!!
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.
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 )
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.
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.
Love you guys and thanks for the adventure. It looks so pretty there. Be safe everyone.
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.
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
This is amazing and already getting a team together to do any epic adventure. THIS IS AMAZING!!!!
THANKS FOR THE RIDE!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing your adventures! Safe travels!
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

Good times with good new friends!
love your video, you guys have a good and safe trip :)
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!
Lovin the wildlife footage. I'd love to make that trip .... but in June .... thank you very much😂🙃🏔🚙🚙🌡❄☃✌🏻
Aww i missed you guys coming through town, anyways safe journeys
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.
As long as Brittany loves Kevin's fashions. He is doing okay!
Great stuff!
Y’all be careful there now we love you from WV
