🇨🇦 I just had to stop after your first minute in and commend you on your proper grammar ! It shows so much wisdom 😊 “ Jimmy and I “ it’s refreshing to hear. Now back to the video 😂
Thanks for the video Jimmy and Natalie.. so glad you enjoyed Alberta. We are here for the rest of our lives now and can't think of a better place to be ❤🇨🇦❤️
Hey guys, you’re playing in my backyard. I grew up in Calgary and have been everywhere you have seen recently. I’m 62 year old now, and am really enjoying seeing all this again through the eyes of youth. Hope your trip continues to entertain you both. I love my country…..I’m so glad you’re enjoying it. Cheers!
What a wonderful program!! Sure enjoyed your time on the glacier--it's amazing to see how much it has receded since my visit. Enjoy yourselves, stay safe and looking forward to your next video.
Just re-watched all your content from the start. All caught up...again. 😂 I sure enjoy your journey. I'm so proud of you two. You remind me a lot of my husband and I. We have been great friends for 25 years. You have such a bright future. Lots of love from an Oklahoma momma. ❤
I'm so glad you experienced our glacier, it's wonderful isn't it? The stunted trees that you passed on the way up is actually an ancient forest, stunted from the harsh climate. It's sad that it's melting so fast, in the late 60s or early 70s I remember my parents drove us passed the Glacier and it was right up to the highway. Don't forget to visit Athabasca falls just ouside of jasper, it's magnificent and free. The CN train station in Jasper is in use but is a historic and very beautiful to visit and the old steam train is parked outside; also free to wander in. Jasper also has a museum which is pretty cool. Watch for bear and elk. The elk like to stay in town.
Natalie, One I cant even tell you had makeup on. Jimmy can agree with me that you dont need makeup. Two you went into a starbucks that has cups and you didnt take one? lol
This is where my grandson proposed to his girlfriend (now fiancée). They were halfway across and had a car to themselves. The view in the background was incredible.
When you said the river is coming from the glacier you were just on you were wrong the Athabasca river comes out the other side of the glacier and that river is coming from a different glacier that flows into the Athabasca river
"Screws fall out all the time. The world's an imperfect place" - John Bender, The Breakfast Club. LOL Very cool on the glacier! Even cooler dipping your faces in the runoff river. How could you remember a straw but not a cup? HAha Another cool video!! Until next week...
So glad you did the glacier. That was a highlight for us in 2021. How did we miss that Jasper gondola? Now on our list for our 2024 trip. Loving your Canadian videos, and yes, there should have been red chairs at that spot. 😉
I am not sure what your plans are for returning, but I have a few recommendations. 1. Continue driving through to BC and check out Vancouver and Victoria areas. Then continue down through the USA (Glacial National Park on the USA side is beautiful, too). 2. If you go back down through AB, don't forget to hit up Drumheller.
You will have to come to the East Coast next time. The Atlantic Provinces offer different but just as incredible landscapes and outdoor activities. There’s tons of hiking, you can explore the Bay of Fundy, go whale watching, deep sea fishing, play in the Atlantic Ocean, see icebergs in Newfoundland, drive the Cape Breton Highlands in Nova Scotia, hike the Fundy Trail and visit the sea caves in New Brunswick, enjoy beautiful beaches and traditional lobster dinners on Prince Edward Island…I could go on for days. We also have innumerable festivals celebrating our diverse populations and you’ll meet some of the kindest folks on the planet. Have I sold you on it yet?
All Australians, when I was out in Whislter BC they were also there working everywhere, a waitress from Ontario told me "they chase winter like we chase summer" Most are just workcamping
I live in Ontario, Canada and in 2019 I went on the Rocky Mountaineer to Banff, Jasper etc with my mom. We were supposed to go on the glacier tour but the weather was too bad 😢 I'm glad you were able to go and enjoy our beautiful country 🇨🇦
I have visited the Icefields many times. The first time was when I was a child in the early 1960's when the glacier was almost all the way down toward the road. Back then we traveled in half tracks vehicles that looked like army tanks. They would stop over the large crevasses and we could look down 50 to 100 feet into the glacier. The Glacier is much smaller now.
I would second on the adoption of you kids your terrific M y wife and i missed doing the tram a few years ago and now we have physical difficulties to be able to do it ThankYou You kids are great!!!!
When i was a kid, 60's and 70's, when we were skating we would pick a hole in the ice with our skates and drink the water. We just put our lips to the water and sucked lol. So good and cold.
It is one awesome short time on that glacier, and the water is so damn nice to drink hehe. Enjoy the town of Jasper, I know I did, don't forget visit the Christmas all year round store opposite the train station, it is a fun shop hehe
You should also be aware that the glacier is a triple point. That is water flows from it to the Pacific Ocean, the Arctic Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean via Hudson Bay.
Great video. Many years ago, I spent about 17 months over three deployments in Antarctica flying ski-equipped aircraft. I even landed on a glacier and visited the South Pole numerous times. (Actually in some respects, all of the ice-covered parts, which is most of the continent, is a glacier.) The tricky part is to stay on the flat areas which is generally free of crevasses.🥶 The whole experience was a blast.
Beautiful. You’ve seen more than I, a Canadian, has. Wonderful to see through your eyes. The bus thing with the 5 foot wheels that took you to the glacier actually did have an accident, rolled down the side of the mountain, awhile ago so not always safe. There was death 😢. Glad you guys were safe.
When I was there in 2017 we met a guy who told us that glacier used to come to highway and was 30 ft high. Sad that it’s disappearing! Glad you’re enjoying this beautiful country of ours. I do hope you get to see some of BC too.
I enjoy your videos. I’d like to offer a photo/ video trick. When shooting glass and bodies of water I suggest using a polarizing filter to reduce reflections. And you will be pleasantly surprised what it does for blue skies. It doesn’t affect cloudy skies though.
OMG Natalie you were so cute when you said theres cake at the bottom lol. The glaciers are pretty cool. I took my family there a few years ago. We only live north of Edmonton but we dont get out to the mountains as much as I would like. Theres nothing like waking up in the morning and enjoying a cup of coffee with that view!!
Just a question. Do either of you know what an Inukshuk is? If not, you saw several at the summit and I'm sure you've seen others during your travels in Canada.
Wow. Those all-terrain buses looks so cool, and walking on a glacier is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Thank you for sharing. I hope to someday visit Canada too.
HI JIMMY & NATALIE 👋 I AGREE DON'T KNOW HOW LONG THE GLACIERS WILL BE AROUND ! BREATHTAKING BEAUTY COLORS VIEWS SCENERY LANDSCAPE WEATHER VIDEO FOOTAGE 📹 HAPPY YOU BOTH TRIED THE GLACIERS WATER 💧 WON'T BE ABLE TO GET IT ANY FRESHER OR OLDER DRINK ! DID YOU ASK WHEN IS THE BEST SEASON TO COME THERE 🤔 BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! ENJOYED 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 GOD BLESS YOU BOTH ALWAYS ON YOUR ADVENTURES 🙏 THANK YOU 🙏
Did you see any marmots on your hike? You were up around 8,000 feet ASL by the end of your hike, so no surprising to be a little short of breath. It is sad to see how fast the glacier is receding. I think the snow cats that went out on the glacier in the early 70's when I was first there took around 8 people.
Yeah, I just started to need to turn on a light for my 0530 breakfast... still quite a bit of light as the day "should" end though. I also love that several times this video the "tour guide" sounded like they were Aussies... in Canada. Remember Altitude Sickness is a real thing. The higher you go the harder it is to breathe. So hiking at altitude... less simple.
Great Videos and I booked my campsites in Baniff & Jasper for this June. Keep living your Vanlife Dream. I’m stoked for my winter trip to Baja too. Cheers
We did the Icefields tour on the same tour! There’s no way I’d risk driving, did you feel how crazy it was driving down the bill from the 35 degree angle to the glacier? 😂
Some info for the climate change deniers. When I first visited this glacier in 1986 the "toe" was less than 100 meters from the side of the road. You could simply just walk onto the glacier. There is one more uniquely Canadian snack food you have to try: Hawkins Cheezies. Made in Canada and only available in Canada because they don't export them. The best cheese crisps on the planet.
We went up to the Summit last year with my 3 year old, and I wore my 10 month old on my back. It was so rewarding to get to the top, good for you! Your last few videos (I know I'm behind) have made me tear up so much because it was the best summer of my life visiting the same areas. The Icefields Parkway is to die for, and I dream of the day when I can visit again. Thank you, once again, for your incredible videography to capture the beauty of the mountains. We also liked Morraine Lake better, and there weren't red chairs at the summit last year either!! lol
Another great video! And did this bring back memories for me! I did your itinerary back in 1981. The difference was the skywalk was not built yet and the red chair concept did not yet exist. But I want to make a comment about the glacier. I was shocked to see how much the glacier has receded since I was there 42 years ago! For those who refuse to believe in climate change, they need to come to the Athabasca Glacier.
Ok, Natalie, it's time to retire those jeans...hahahaha, cut em off for shorts and open the budget for some new Canadian souvenir jeans, let 'em go already :)
Glad you're enjoying your time in Alberta. Just a heads up, using a cell phone for even maps is not allowed visually in many provinces in Canada. In Ontario, just looking at your cell phone for maps or at a stop light in a $560 fine and 4 demerit points. Be safe and have fun. Look forward to the next one!👍
Hi Jimmy and Natalie. Just came across your TH-cam channel and are loving your Canada videos! We have been planning to go to Canada for quite some time and you have given us some great ideas! Thanks so much and much success on your TH-cam channel. We have a TH-cam channel as well and love making videos of our travels.
There is also a trail to hike up to the restaurant as well from the bottom. I hiked that trail in 1992 not realizing that there was a restaurant at the top and took the gondola down. It was fun to see the area again!
Great tour!! We are 1 day behind you and we hiked the Icefields twice. Did not take either of the Tours so we go to see what we missed! Well done. Prince George here we come!

Me too, I’m 63, I’ve been to Banff in 2017. I’m too old to go back there again, but I love this video.
Oilers are better
That video was so wonderful. Thank you so much. I love your youthful energy and enthusiasm.
You both have wholeheartedly embraced our wonderful nation. It's only fair that Canada adopts you as one of its citizens.
Love the video! The Glacier experience was awesome! So glad you did it! Love the glacial facials❤ You earned that cake for sure! 🎂😊🐢
What a wonderful program!! Sure enjoyed your time on the glacier--it's amazing to see how much it has receded since my visit. Enjoy yourselves, stay safe and looking forward to your next video.

Aussies. Taking over Canada one ski resort at a time. 😊
I'm thinking our resorts would all be closed if the Azzies weren't stepping up.
Thanks
Natalie, One I cant even tell you had makeup on. Jimmy can agree with me that you dont need makeup. Two you went into a starbucks that has cups and you didnt take one? lol
That was sooo much fun! So many laughs. You two are great tour guides!
This is where my grandson proposed to his girlfriend (now fiancée). They were halfway across and had a car to themselves. The view in the background was incredible.
You two are adorable. So glad I came across your channel.
When you said the river is coming from the glacier you were just on you were wrong the Athabasca river comes out the other side of the glacier and that river is coming from a different glacier that flows into the Athabasca river
I enjoy how you video your adventures, great job you two.

You both are so respectful of each others and others, such great US ambassadors. Thanks for being you
You two are so happy and really enjoying yourselves❤
When i was a kid, 60's and 70's, when we were skating we would pick a hole in the ice with our skates and drink the water. We just put our lips to the water and sucked lol. So good and cold.
It is one awesome short time on that glacier, and the water is so damn nice to drink hehe.
Enjoy the town of Jasper, I know I did, don't forget visit the Christmas all year round store opposite the train station, it is a fun shop hehe
I'm going to the Icefields and Skywalk this weekend. Can't wait!
Say hi to my Dad. (Calgary) why are all the tour guides, drivers etc Aussies?
Ok, I thought I heard Jimmy say Annette Lake so I had to look it up, Jasper is a must, I need to see that lake now. 😉
What wonderful experiences you are having! I love coming along. Something I would never do but am enjoying immensely. Thanks!❤️
Two of my favorite TH-camrs are in the same area chrome from van city van life has been in the same area that you guys are in
You should also be aware that the glacier is a triple point. That is water flows from it to the Pacific Ocean, the Arctic Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean via Hudson Bay.
Glacier fun! However, again, Nathalie with the backpack on the really steep hike.
I’ve been few years and waiting for my hubby’s passport so that I can take him there. I did go to Banff in June 2023 and went skywalk. It was fun
Pete cape town south Africa looking forward to seeing you soon
Great video. Many years ago, I spent about 17 months over three deployments in Antarctica flying ski-equipped aircraft. I even landed on a glacier and visited the South Pole numerous times.

I was there in 1981 and it came much closer to the highway back then.
I was there nearly 60 years ago and it was mucho grande and toured on bombardier track machines. Limit 6
I enjoy your videos. I’d like to offer a photo/ video trick. When shooting glass and bodies of water I suggest using a polarizing filter to reduce reflections. And you will be pleasantly surprised what it does for blue skies. It doesn’t affect cloudy skies though.
Another awesome video as always!! That glacier looked amazing!!
Also I felt the pain as you guys were climbing the steep mountain 😆
OMG Natalie you were so cute when you said theres cake at the bottom lol. The glaciers are pretty cool. I took my family there a few years ago. We only live north of Edmonton but we dont get out to the mountains as much as I would like. Theres nothing like waking up in the morning and enjoying a cup of coffee with that view!!
The first time we were to that glacier about 1975, the toe of the glacier was at the road.
Just a question. Do either of you know what an Inukshuk is? If not, you saw several at the summit and I'm sure you've seen others during your travels in Canada.
Wow! What a cool experience on that glacier! And the mode of transportation was pretty cool too!😎
Glad you are trying to find more red chairs.
I bet you two loved Canada it’s so beautiful up there here from Ontario Canada ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦😎
So very cool. Nice video and great music too.
Does Australia own the glacier now??
Wow. Those all-terrain buses looks so cool, and walking on a glacier is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Thank you for sharing. I hope to someday visit Canada too.

Iam loving your Canada 🍁 series. Fun to see all yalls shenanigans keep up the good work kiddos..
Fantastic photography. Great honest reviews. Man-o-man I loved this upload!
You should keep going west in Canada
your videos are always so awesome
Oh wow! What a great adventure! Thanks for taking us along.
That first flight attendant had a distinctively Aussie accent.
Awesome videos sorry I’m so late

Did this tour 50 years ago. Lots has changed. :)
is it my imagination or was all the tour guide workers Australian?
Many Australians work in the tourism industry in Alberta and British Columbia.
Years ago traveling in ASIA I met a Canadian girl who told me she worked in Australia and all the Australians were abroad working. @@njam101
So cool💞🙀🧘♀️🙋♀️🎈
That was pretty good.
Thanks!
Another two gallons in your tank, travel happy Pancakers. 🥞
I think they are heading towards Alaska.😮
Wow, incredible.
It sure is pretty there! Thanks for taking us along!
:) WOW! AhhhhMAZING share, video and experience! THANKS SO MUCH for sharing!! ALL the BEST to BOTH of you! Cheers! :)

How very cool to see those places. Thanks for sharing a place I'd never be able to see. Spectacular site. ❤❤
Very cool. Especially as Chrome from Vancity Vanlife was just there as well 😂
Makes you want to move to Canada

Wow looks like a giant slushy just add strawberries yummy 😋 you guys had fun up there take care 😢
Funny thing. I just saw all this in a video from vancity vanlife. He's out there some where
I’m loving these Canada 🇨🇦 videos. I’ve never been that far north.
How do you navigate in Canada ? Do you have international phone service for maps?

I would love to do that but im so afraid of heights that it'll never happen, thanks for showing us the sights!
Thanks for the tour!
You two are always entertaining.
