Abandoned Town Everyone Forgot | Telegraph Creek | Destination Adventure

I really admire how you can make a professional video together that tells a story about the land, people and it’s history. I so look forward (as all of us do) to every video. Keep them coming!

If there is a youtube award for content, quality,music,phtography and overall beauty you would win.Always look forward to your videos.Thank you Justin.

Dustin, you are a treasure and such a huge asset to this World. You are so kind and gentle to animals . Those beautiful horses. You see things that many people just ignore. And the respect that you have for local history, and it’s remaining residence. You just can’t get any better than Dustin Porter! Exploring, History, Geology, Wildlife.

Hey Dustin, love that you got to explore Telegraph Creek, it's a beautiful area, the whole Stikine River valley is a spectacular place, mostly untouched by industry, and our Tahltan peoples are trying our hardest to keep it that way. Those horses are domesticated, owned by horse ranch in the area, they usually set their horses to roam over the fall and winter, then collect them in the spring/summer. That cliff that you filmed at the village of Tahltan, is called Eagle Rock, because the way the cliff eroded, looks like eagles wings cut into the cliff, its a sacred spot for our peoples. Its an amazing place, i haven't been to Telegraph in years.

You should write a book "The Destination Adventure Guide" so we could have a chance to go on to see your adventure destinations for our selves and if nothing else enjoy the fantastic pictures the book is sure to have

That young kid, Andrew: the excitement in his voice was infectious.

The cinematic cut scenes from the drone immerse your viewer and make them feel like they are part of it all . You have a great future in store Dustin . Keep up the great work and thanks again .

If anyone is interested in the history of Telegraph Creek and the area, read "Notes From the Century Before," by Edward Hoagland. He spent the summer there in 1966 when many of the old-timers were still around. It's a fascinating read.

Mickey Ferguson is my grandpa and I always make it up to telegraph for the summers and he teaches me about everything history wise. And I hope people know that it’s not abandoned it’s just a small town

Crazy how Canada’s back country gravel roads are maintained better than America’s asphalt roads

"Catching this a little late, I love the longer content and stories. Dustin, you always bring it! Great job! I had to edit that; the horse brought a tear to my eye in joy. As a 42-year-old man, I found myself shedding a tear in my shop in Wisconsin over the emotion and connection to nature you bring to all of us. Thank you."

What an incredible journey you took us on today,. Love the history from the locals and especially the enthusiasm from the young man who actually gets small town living and the ancestry that comes with it. Again Justin, thank you, would never see some of these amazing places or incredible stories without you.

This is the second video from this channel I've watched. It's quickly become readily apparent that we're not dealing with just another amateur YouTuber here. This is professional work. It's like what we used to see on CHEK TV Saturday mornings or the Outdoor Life Network pre-YouTube, and even pre-internet. The main difference was that the host wouldn't carry a camera and do his own filming. He/she would have a film and sound crew with them. We used to call those big propane bottles, "pigs". I'm not sure why. 😆 "Brothely." 😆 Keep up the great work.

I absolutely LOVED this video. You braved that awful narrow road to bring us this spectacular documentary. Thank you so much for gifting this to us.

My friend, you've sure got the needle riding deep in the groove. This art is flowing from you in the most natural way. I'm confident that nothing requiring so much effort, could appear so effortless. Highest praise and most sincere thanks for your work!💪

Very interesting! I get brought to tears looking at the beauty you show us. Then I am holding onto my chair because of the steep roads or those cliffs on either side of you wondering if I could've ever done it. I think so, but it would have been a white knuckle ride. It's so sad to see such destruction of those old abandoned houses/buildings. The history thoughtless people destroy. Again, Dustin, thank you for my weekly adventure. God's blessings on you and your travels from Proctor Minnesota!

Your documentary style is not only entertaining and very well produced, but you also respectfully pay tribute to the places you go and share with the world. I grew up and still live in the northwest and you have done a great service over the past 2 years. You make me proud of my upbringing and fortunate of my birthplace. Northwest BC is incredible.

I haven't been to Telegraph Creek in a bunch of years! My husband was an RCMP member out of Dease Lake and we used to make day trips to Telegraph to visit the members there. We almost bought a place there too. It's a beautiful drive with a very interesting history. You did miss the eagle in Eagle Rock, though. You traced the shape of it's wings when you were at the confluence of the Stikine and the Tahltan rivers. We used to follow the road to it's end and picnic. If I'm remembering correctly, there was a little campsite there. It was really cool to revisit it with you, Dustin!

I look forward to Sat morning used to be cartoons NOW it is Saturday morning with Destination Adventure Amazing Video again. :hand-purple-blue-peace:🙏👣 I could easily live in one of those 1 cabins the beauty of this is amazing

I am impressed by your drone footage, and your way of telling a good story, with respect for the residents who still live in the ghost town.
