Alaskan Adventure Part 1: The Alaska Railroad
Over the last two weeks I spent my time in America's Last Frontier, Alaska, on a cruise and land vacation. Included in this adventure were trips on the two RR's that call Alaska home, the Alaska Railroad and the White Pass and Yukon. Over this two part series I will share with you scenes from each RR and the rides I was able to enjoy along them.
PART 1 DESCRIPTION: The Alaska Railroad is a Class II regional railroad that provides freight and passenger service along a 470 mile mainline from Fairbanks to Seward. It is currently owned by the state of Alaska and is hailed as one of the last flag stop passenger railroads in the United States. In this video we will spend 2 days railfanning around the Anchorage area, followed by a 110 mile ride from Anchorage to Seward aboard The Cruise Train.
Hope you enjoy the video

We saw a lot on this trip: Denali National Park, Anchorage, Alaska Zoo, Whittier, Surprise Glacier, Girdwood, Seward, Alaska Sealife Center, Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, Esther Passage, tons of wildlife and more.

OUR STORY | HOW THE FREEDOM THEORY CAME TO BE
WATCH FROM THE BEGINNING |
We live in a 33 foot fifth wheel tiny home camper that we are currently traveling the USA in! It is an alternative lifestyle we find that it brings us the most freedom. Living in a RV full time was never something we planned to do. Instead we jumped right into it. In a matter of 30 days. We bought a RV and the following day bought a truck to tow with!

Portage Pass Trail Hike to Portage Glacier - Alaska April 2019 - Travel Vlog
Alaska’s natural beauty (and wildlife) should be a wake up call to help preserve and conserve the Earth’s health. It’s absolutely amazing how mankind fits in the universal scheme of things, and how precarious nature’s reserves have become.
We had a free day, and I read about a 1-2 mile hike (one way) that would take us to a stunning vista of a glacier just 1.5 hour drive south if Anchorage to Whittier down Turnagain Arm, which provides a stunning scenic drive. You will take the Anton Anderson Tunnel (Whittier Tunnel), which was designed for one-way train use, although it shares the passage with cars, so there is schedule for taking turns. Once you are through, cross over the railroad tracks onto a gravel road. As for parking, we copied other cars that parked right outside the trailhead.
Well… I did not read the fine print, because the hike takes an incline towards 750-800 ft (above sea level) up Maynard mountain! There is no map or trail signs to point the way, just a fairly established trail. The “lookout” will not be obvious, so just head towards people resting on a small plateau. It’s also dog friendly, however, I’m not sure about it being kid friendly. It is a great hike that rewards you with a view of Portage Glacier.
Camera Equipment:
DJI Mavic Air Quadcopter with Remote Controller
Canon G7X Mark II PowerShot
JOBY GorillaPod Original Tripod for Point and Shoot Cameras

Adventures at Denali National Park Alaska
Our first camping trip of the spring season. We're so lucky to have Denali National Park only a short drive away from where we live in Fairbanks, Alaska. It is held as one of the most beautiful State Parks in North America. We've spent quite a bit of time here and it never ceases to take our breath away. It's a place covered in lushes grasslands and snowy peaks for as far as the eye can see.
Normally, the road into the park stops for private entry around mid May and it is open exclusively to commercial buses for the rest of the summer season before closing in winter. However, there's a short window between when the snow melts on the service road and when the park opens for business. During that time, private vehicles can drive into the park for quite a ways. This is an amazing opportunity for hiking, car-side photography and camping without having to deal with the hustle and bustle during the summer tourist season.
We had a blast and hope you enjoy our video. This will be the first of our many adventures this season and we hope to share them all with you.

Travel Tips: Skagway Alaska
Hi this is Kristina Hathaway from Hathaway Vacations In this short video, I'm going to give you 3 things to do in Skagway Alaska.
Here we go! Tip #1: Skagway City and White Pass Summit
Begins with a guided mini-coach tour of Skagway’s Historic District. Journey up the scenic Klondike Highway. Along this glacier carved valley are glaciers, thundering waterfalls, majestic mountain vistas and pristine wilderness.
Tip #2: Yukon Jeep Klondike Adventure
You'll head out to follow the same valleys and summits of the Trail of '98. Your small group of explorers will journey into the Yukon Territory, tracing the famous routes taken by the hearty gold prospectors in the late 1800s. You'll be driving your Jeep into the very setting of the fabled gold rush legends.
Tip #3: Liarsville Gold Rush Trail Camp and Salmon Bake
You'll feast on freshly grilled filet of wild Alaskan salmon. You'll then learn the art of gold panning and be set free in the Liarsville gold fields, where you are guaranteed to find that precious metal that drove men and women wild with gold fever!

Our Alaska gold maps show both state and federal gold claim locations. The maps also include a state abandoned claims map, which is a first for our industry. Hope you enjoy it...
Alaska to Vancouver, A Road Trip Timelapse
So the story here is that back in 2012 I went on a roadtrip up to Alaska with a friend of mine. The 6 days up were so great that we thought it would be cool to get a timelapse of the trip back.
I bought my very first goPro while up there, the hero2 at the time, and setup a rig on my windsheild using the suction cup mount and some duct tape (We couldnt find the skeleton housing in stores and needed an open case to charge the camera as it recorded). The goal was to capture the essence of the complete route and make it more enjoyable than most of the bad footage you see elsewhere on youtube. It was filmed in 1080p, 60fps and we tried our best to drive during daylight and wash the windows to keep the view clear. Theres virtually no cuts while driving during the entire film, so you get the actual full trip experience. To do this we used a system of 2 memory cards and swapped them quickly at stops when they filled up, while moving the footage over to a laptop from the full card as we drove.
There was actually quite a bit of planning into how we did everything from filming and framing shots, to constantly passing other vehicles to make it feel more surreal and to keep the view in front of us clear. I kinda sat on the 60 hours of 150, unorganized files for 5 years because the task of editing it all into something watchable was so daunting but I finally managed to get it done. Ive added in pictures from the trip at relevant parts, along with locations of all the pit stops and some areas along the way with an included map (This was hard to edit in as the hero2 had no GPS funcationaliy). Footage is sped up 30 times for the most part, jumping up even faster to skip over traffic and pit stops while being slowed down for all the wildlife and interesting parts. The footage contained mostly radio music and personal conversation so I stripped it all and added in some filler music the best I could (Its hard to find good music which you can use in your youtube videos without copyright infringment). However the video is setup so that once I stop talking at the beggining, everything is explained with text prompts so you can mute the video and play your own music in the background if you wish.
I hope you all enjoy and get the feel of doing the actual trip yourself from this. If youre lazy however and just want to see the highlights, I have an index here you can click through to jump to the interesting parts, but youll miss lots of cool scenery. Cheers!

Alaska is truly one of the last great places on this planet! If ever you have the opportunity to experience it in person, JUST DO IT! You have to do it! You will be amazed beyond belief.
This video was shot in Southcentral Alaska around the Portage Glacier and Portage Valley area, right near the Wildlife Conservation Center along the Seward Highway.
The highway runs from Anchorage down to the Kenai Peninsula and makes a split to go to one of three destinations... 1) to Seward, Alaska 2) Kenai, Soldotna, Homer, and Ninilchik Alaska or to the tiny town of 3) Hope, Alaska. All three roads have full on beautiful scenery, as only Alaska can offer and Im sure that no matter which of the Road Less Traveled you take, you are sure to have a beautiful and great time!
ENJOY!
