Wild Glaciers, Jumping Salmon, & B.C. Camping | Into Alaska Ep.4 a 30-Day Overland & Canoe Adventure

Hey adventure enthusiasts, Jim Baird here, and welcome back to the wild ride that is "Into Alaska." In Episode 4, we trade the comforts of a BC recreational site for the rugged beauty of the Cassiar Highway in Northern BC.

Off the beaten path, we take a detour onto Highway 37a, where we're treated to jaw-dropping views of some seriously impressive glaciers. Mother Nature sure knows how to put on a show, and every curve in the road reveals another piece of her stunning masterpiece.

But that's not all! Along the way, we stumbled upon something truly special - an Indigenous Wet'suwet'en salmon dip-netting operation. These folks are doing more than just fishing; they're conducting essential research. Picture this: recording salmon numbers, measuring their sizes, and releasing them above a picturesque waterfall. Oh, and yeah, they're also processing some for a good old-fashioned feast.

It's a fascinating look at how tradition, sustainability, and the great outdoors all come together. I've always believed that understanding the delicate balance between our needs and the environment is key, and these folks are nailing it.

After all the action, we make our way to Clemans Lake, where we set up camp against a backdrop that's basically nature's version of a lullaby. The tranquility of the lake, surrounded by towering trees and the sounds of wildlife, sets the stage for a night of reflection and gratitude for the incredible experiences we've had so far.

As we share these moments with you, I hope you feel the same sense of wonder and connection to the wild that keeps me coming back for more.
