Dirt Sunrise: Tim and Kelsey get lost...

[KMM]

We find some inspiration in the dirt just when we most need it. We hope you enjoy the scenery as much as we did in this one.

As we work our way south we stumble across a bore tide. Turns out this is the only bore tide in the USA and it happens in the Turnagain Arm in Alaska. So we set out to find the perfect spot to watch this amazing natural wonder and get a few more happy surprises along the way.

Another good video. You're giving me ideas for my upcoming Alaska trip.

We find ourselves in the rain exploring the Kenai Peninsula, we check out Homer, Seward, and the Exit Glacier. The natural beauty just continues to blow our minds as we wander around. Tim also goes an a rescue mission for our drone.

I remember watching the bore tide, and just the drive around the Turnigan arm- Beautiful. The sound reminded me of the glacier calving in Patagonia. I had just gotten off a 90 day remote contract, the airline had lost my luggage. All I had was the clothes on my back, walet and rental subaru. It was actualy pretty freeing, with another 90 days at sea a few days out.

I had to laugh, when I saw the " Kona Kai" in the video. When on the bering Sea, and working out of Egegik, she was one of our catcher vessels. Hope you were able to check out the sea life center in Seward, it can be touristy but they have a great set up/ good cause.

Such a pretty area! That is crazy about the Kona Kai! We didn't make it into the Seward sea life center I was reading about it after we saw it and looked really neat.

Tim does a quick fix on Dusty in the rain before we hit the road to stay dry. The clouds eventually break to make room for a stunning sunset view. Then as we make our way towards McCarthy Alaska we find ourselves on a catwalk and feeling a little too high and exposed. Come along for some beautiful views and even some sunshine!

 

[KMM]

In this holiday special episode we explore McCarthy Alaska and even head up to the Root glacier. We cross our fingers the weather will hold out as we explore on foot. It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas! We hope you enjoy this episode and have a holly jolly Christmas!

We wanted to share our inspiration for the new year with all of you!
We can't wait to see what 2022 has in store and of course share it all with you!
We'll see you on the flip side!
Happy New Year!
Tim & Kelsey

We wake up to a winter wonderland and head over the pass into Valdez. We also discover that getting a covid test so we can cross the border into Canada is easier said than done. Winter is definitely on the way!

 

[Arjan]

Nice one !

Thank You very much

 

[KMM]

Well, we enjoy some nice weather and beautiful views before the snow hits as we wait for our test. (We enjoy the snow too!)

 

[KMM]

Well we cross the border into Canada and get a little surprise, which pushes us to Whitehorse a lot quicker than we would have liked but that's life. We make a crazy choice on where to head and get to spend time with friends while we make our way south!

You have probably seen Tonto our 1976 FJ40 in our videos before but we have never given you a real tour. So here it is! We show you all of lil Tonto's quirks and character! We sure do love him!
