    Im disabled and watch a lot of outdoors videos on TH-cam including yours and Brooks, Partially to live vicariously and partially to motivate myself. Of all the videos i have seem over the last few years, this is by far the most awesome. This is my dream. Thank you.

      @@b-radfrommalibu2702 it's good for people to live their dreams no matter what age. I have a dream of taking an old boat I have that needs alot of work down to the Gulf Of Mexico. It's 490 miles down river from me, takes about 4 or 5 days one way. Would be an adventure. Great thing about my boat is that it's aluminum and light at 24 feet it's only about 900 pounds and trailerable. So My Uncle said he would drag my trailer down to Mobile or Gulf Shores and pick up me and the boat if I would like. But 10 days on the water doesn't sound so bad. Another good thing I have a four stroke outboard for it so good fuel mileage. Unlike the 2 stroke on it now.

    First of all I have to say big thanks to you. I found this video about two weeks ago. Incredibly, I found myself 20 years ago in this video. I am the Japanese with black hair in the past two minutes. I was there exactly!! It’s my first solo adventure that kayaking Yukon.
    I could clearly remember my precious memories in this video.
    I appreciate you made this video.
    And thank you so much for Neil and your family. I had good sleep on raft cabin at that time.
    One more appreciate to you guys from Japan.

    Dear Dave and Brooke, I have watched this raft trip several times and each experience is so entertaining and enriching. I was 77 on 12/27/21 and am still very spiritually vibrant. However, severe orthroartritis handicaps me such that my former normal adventures are mostly verboten. Thus, I very much vicariously enjoy every video you both produce. Just 10 years ago I was able to engage in all the exhiIariating activities I witness you doing. I ask not for any pity but joy that I so enjoy your wonderful visual productions. Thank and bless you and your wonderful son and daughter so much for the gifts you have given me.
    Blessings, Larry

    A fantastic journey,well told. I've watched a few videos of smaller rafts journeying down rivers in northern Europe. Personally I used to go canoe camping on rivers in the UK, the kids loved it and the dogs never stopped smiling. The kids all promised that they'd take their kids one day. Running down a river with no noisy engines nature comes to visit such a tranquil journey. Many thanks for sharing made my day.

We spent the fall in Wisconsin Northwoods bird hunting with our dogs. My goal is to get back up there with Ann Jandernoa of Northwind Setters this fall. By God's grace I was not paralyzed with pelvis fracture(hurts themost) and explosion of my L1. It was just reduced to bone shards. We got this.

    Guys this was an awesome video. I really enjoy and appreciate these story vids that you put up. Some of my favorite content you guys put up. It is my goal and dream to move to Alaska and live. You truly motivate and inspire me to get it done and each time I see one of your Alaska vids it only confirms my goals. Thanks as always.

    That is some kind of story! I very much like to see others sharing little bits of their lives well-lived. This looks like life well-lived indeed.JER

    Beautiful story. It taught me a lot about one part of Alaskan culture. Being that I was born in Ketchikan, and have lived most of my life on the East Coast, that's a special gift. So thank you, I like your story and I hope that many others hear it.

      Joseph Lawrence. Maybe we could all do a BushRadical meet up. Build a raft and dedicate it to Scotty. 😁

      Thanks KM. I know you watched it to the end if you know about Scotty. Scotty was the real thing. like Neil. I would love to build a raft and dedicate it to Scotty. Scotty wrote a book about his years as a hunting guide.....I don't recall the name of the book but I read it while we were floating the river and it was really good.

      Bushradical lets do it then! This Michigan native needs to get up north and get Radical! I’ll be in Carson City Mi in May for a Guys only retreat. Maybe we can meet up and make a plan for a Yukon raft.

      Brooke was born in Carson City. I really doubt I'll be up for building a raft this summer, but I do love the thought KM. Scotty was a really cool dude and he needs a tribute like that. It may be a few years down the road for us though, we still have both the kids in school. Brooke and I might go boat down the yukon for a couple days though.

      Bushradical I hear ya. I’ll put it on my bucket list for sure. I bet Brooke knows my family. Anderson family is who I’m visiting. We’re going to camp at The Deckers camp. I’m from Midland. Good to know ya! So cool.
