    YES PLEASE! Please make another video with you prospecting for gold!
    I'm so jealous of your adventures! If I were there, you wouldn't be able to get me to stop gold hunting!
    Those mosquitoes though! Your bug zapper got quite a workout! They work good! I have one.

Think I started watching you during the pandemic and I've known for quite some time that your mannerisms and character are so crazily similar to my eldest son Christian. He's 31. It's so crazy. Even down to the height. Thanks for all that you do Everest. You know your stuff❤👍

    Back in the early 2000s I went to Alaska seven times in 4 years and would cry every time I left. So I packed up and spent two years in Homer. It was a wonderful Adventure but unless you had a boat a four wheeler an airplane a snowmobile and a 4x4 and a man with a really big gun you didn't really go anywhere. LOL so I spend my days in Montana the last best place in the lower 48 but don't tell anybody

    What an amazing experience!!! Thank you for sharing this with us! I've always wanted to cross the Arctic Circle and had the opportunity to in the month of February a few years ago in Norway. We were in Kierkenes, 250 miles above the Arctic Circle. Experienced the stunning Aurora Borealis. No annoying mosquitos to deal with because it was the dead of winter. I will always remember and treasure that trip for the rest of my life.

    • @TravelersTale
      @TravelersTale  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Good time to do it! Also Norway is much better in the summer for mosquitos than interior areas because of the ocean. Best of both worlds

    Hello brother Tale. I am curious to ask.
    Whilst sleeping in your van, what safety precautions do you have implace in regards to potential threats of wildlife: bears, and have you ever got into circumstances with odd people being far away out there? What crossed my mind, a scenario of you sleeping on a really cold night, you've just cooked a meal, stored everything and went to bed shortly after. What if a bear sniffs you out, decides to break in your van whilst sleeping, due to the cold climate concerns lf your car not being able to start up to emergench evacuate.
