Hauling Fresh Spring Water in Alaska

We love pure water, untreated, and straight from the source! It doesn't matter if we are in the shipyard, or out to sea, water direct from the source feels the best in our bodies. In this video, Audrey takes you along as we drive out to a natural freshwater spring in Southeast Alaska, fill up our jugs, and enjoy the simple blessing of pure water straight from the earth. Life in the shipyard is not as connected to nature as we are used to living, but these direct connections the natural resource keeps us connected and thriving. If you’ve ever wondered what shipyard living, boat life off the grid, or hauling water in Alaska looks like, here’s a fun, lighthearted peek into our daily rhythm. 🌊 Subscribe to follow The Alaskan Gypsy Life as we restore our steel motorsailer, share our off-grid adventures, and document the beauty of Alaska wilderness life.
