Hey Russ my dad grew up in Globe in the early 1900’s. I’m
handicapped and can’t drive like I did when I was younger so I really enjoy your videos more than you’ll ever know. Keep up the good work.
Has long been one of the best drives there is. Arizona High Country at its best
Hey,Hey RVerTV ,Russ. Thanks for letting us Ride along with you today .Salt River Canyon, YEAH To Cool For School. 👍
Russ thank you so much for filming editing and creating such beautiful drives and destinations. Your easygoing narration is so calming and enjoyable. I always feel great watching them. You are such a blessing. Keep up the great work.
Thanks russ
🙋♀Hello Russ! Sho-lo looked like a nice area. Globe looks welcoming. I liked that clock & the skeleton playing the airy tunes. It's sad seeing the empty stores in some of these little towns. Hope you enjoy the rest of your day. 👍
Show Low it is reference to a card game in the history of the town, main road is called Duece of Clubs LOL
Another beautiful trip. I hope that cat found its way home. It was too close to traffic.
Great video Russ! I would have Moooo'ed back at the cow....😂
Hello Russ ! I remembered seeing this particular Arizona landscape a long time ago (the Salt River Canyon). I was not even so sure in what part of the State it was in. I visited in January 1979 and have never been back there. Your video makes a lot of memories well up in my mind, I should visit next time I am in Arizona. Cheers ! RICHARD
Hi russ thanks for the tour its great to see cointry an the town an how they keep the history alive . Cheers mate🇦🇺
‘Big Lake’ Arizona…..not so big but nearly froze to death in July …….be ready for the chill. Eagar- Greer area.9000elevation
Love globe. The drive from Phoenix up thru the cannon was beautiful. Our fav town out if anywhere in the u.s.
Memories from my youth...i vaguely remember swimming in that river..several..years ago
thank you, i am still hoping to get out that way. ha! been hoping for the last 6 months. but t 80 things are a little slower
Love the green in Az better than the Hot and dry. Great video tks for the ride.
Hey Russ 👋 Nice drive 🚗
Gorgeous canyon early morn birds 🐦 chirping cows 🐄 mooing Lol😅
Absolutely gorgeous! Fun traveling with Russ!🎉 Wasn't Billy the Kid in Globe for a short time?
He went to Fort Grant which is about 2-3 days hard riding southeast of Globe.
No record of him being in Globe as far I know, but it's possible.
Great drive. But I think the drive from Holbrook to Payson is awesome as well.
that's what Iam talking about, good deal. thank you ALL stay safe
Thanks for this one! Now that’s a trip for getting out of the heat.
So green, very nice drive. Thanks MrRuss☺️
Thanks Russ for the ride along !!! Still watching…. Yea.. 👍😁
i always enjoy your videos .old or new
Love the scenery thanks for sharing
Beautiful place…I couldn’t help but notice the kitty cat that you mentioned, I think this is the 2nd time in the same place you ve seen a cat in the gutter…I hope somebody will help rescue these cats and give them loving homes, or at least TNR and feed them…cat lover here🙏😽😺😸😻
Thanks for the video Russ 👍
Hey Russ! Great vid! Love your Arizona content. I hope to retire in AZ if the good lord allows it! Please keep producing AZ contend when you can. I’m taking it all in, Brotha! You are my eyes, as far as checking out locations in the state. Much appreciated! If you get a chance, I would love to see a vid on the ski areas of AZ! There’s not many, so should be pretty easy for a guy like you. I’m a former Ski Patrolman and would still like to slide down the slopes in retirement. Ha ha! Arizona Snow Bowl and Sunrise Park are the two I’m interested in. Hopefully in the next year or so I can make a decision on where I want to be in AZ! That is if all the stars, moon, and sun align! Again, love your vids! You are the best my friend! God Bless! 😎
COMtn Pilot ,
What a sweet kind message !
Hope you find a lovely place
for your retirement.
💕From England !
🇬🇧💕🇺🇲😊🚐🌫️🇺🇲M
I live a quarter mile from highway 60 in the Missouri Ozarks.
OMG……couple of hours from PHX….done I-40 thru Miizzouri many times lol or I 44 or I -70 gettin old. Joplin to St Louis beautiful for sure
Your channel has become one of my favorite comfort channels. Wishing you safety and fun throughout your many road trips to come! 😊
Russ these videos of AZ mean a lot to me. I left Arizona in 2009 for Colorado and miss AZ so much. This last time, it has been three and a half years since my last time there. You are filling a void I have for AZ. Thanks so much for the time and expertise to make these trips so meaningful. I'm moving back to AZ soon. Maybe, I will see your van here CO before I go. Beautiful drive from Show Low.
Stunning! Put it on my to-do list. Thanks.
Thanks for this. I lived in show low several years until I retired a few years ago and moved back east. I miss the area a great deal. I’ve made that drive many times. Always enjoyed it. It was very dry all the years I was there. Nice to see so much water in the river. Good to get a chance to see it again.
Good memories of driving that road many years ago.
LIFE is only fast paced if you choose it to be
Thanks, Russ! Awesome day trip to escape the Valley heat!
Back in the 1970s, when I was in high school, the Arizona driver's manual had photo of the Salt River Canyon on the cover. Wonder if the state even publishes a driver's manual anymore. Back then we all studied it so we could get our learner's permits and driver's licenses.
Very pretty trip. Globe still looks interesting. Thank you.👍👍
Thanks!
Welcome to Show Low. Loved it so much bought 10 acres and calling it home. Hwy 60 is beautiful, we love driving it in the daytime. Thanks for the ride.
Thanks for Sharing!! I really enjoyed the view! Sound like an Amazing trip!!
Hey Russ, another great video. You know those runaway truck ramps usually have a deep area of gravel or sand or both that is what stops the trucks really good. Well safe travel see you again.
Arizona is such a beautiful place thank you for showing us Russ
Hi Russ. Just joined your channel. Love love love that Oregon coast trip! Glad that I found your channel❣️😊
It's great to see that the southwest has come back to life once again. I think a lot of prayers for water were answered this past winter. Your trip on US 60 was interesting including your revisit to Globe. Van still looks great. Thanks for inviting us along on your trip.
good morning have a safe trravils and god bless
Absolutely beautiful, thank you for sharing .
beautiful
I drove this many times and it is always awesome. I've been all over the USA and this drive I remember well.
Globe is a good old historic town! The Salt River Canyon was great too!🇺🇸😀🚙🐎🛻🐗
Enjoyable and informative video of this part of Arizona. Very helpful to me in a number of ways. Thanks! 😊
The cow was definitely the highlight of that canyon! made it that much cooler haha
Yes it was!
OMG! That cow was funny! What was he yelling about? Beautiful country! Love it Russ! Thank you! Safe travels!!!
Beautiful drive, Russ. Thanks for taking us along.
As a UK guy I would like to say thank you for showing me the US is a buitiful country .
That jewelry store downtown next to the old courthouse was one of or the last Woolworth opened. I remember when I was a kid when it closed, all the news stations from Phoenix came up. There is a lot more history there in little old Globe. old history
Thank you for sharing this wonderfully scenic video. I especially loved seeing the blue sky. Not much blue sky here in NY lately.
We drove through there last year (23). Got stuck in Show Low for 5 days. Best 5 days we have had in a long time. We plan on moving there in a couple years. Amazing little town and everyone we talked to was so nice. Traffic was a joy compared to what we are used to. West Texas oilfield traffic is not amusing. Thanks for a great video
thanks i just love seen the lake freighters
The canyon is crazy fun on a motorcycle and I've driven it a couple times back and forth just for the fun of it. A good day ride is from Mesa up state route 87 to Payson then the 260 through Heber - Overgarrd to Show Low and then the 60 down through the Salt River Canyon to Globe and back to Mesa. Route 87 from Mesa is called the Beeline Highway and is an incredibly beautiful ride to Payson.
Looking at doing that ride but how is the weather around the first week in January?
We have a small place just outside Show low and travel through Salt River canyon often. We like it to driving through a mini Grand Canyon. Always a beautiful trip!
On the road again! Love riding along with everyone and you also, Russ!
Thank you Russ. I watch videos of the wild horses of salt River. But. I have never been. There!!! Safe travels
So drove this myself going the opposite direction,was a white knuckle drive for me lol,but was the best drive of my whole life will never forget it,wished I would have camped and spent more time in the white mountains.
I like listening to "wild west" music while watching videos like this. Try the theme from "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly". 🤠🤠🤠
I'm watching some of your older videos from last year. We took that hwy 60 route in the opposite direction, early last April...And we had never been in that area of Arizona before. It was stunning indeed.
While you were on that older pedestrian bridge looking down, you could see the hand railings precariously hanging on the cliffs edge above the river. They have blocked off access to that area now. But people were still going down there. Might have gotten too dangerous. Thanks for taking us along.
Oh, I drove this a couple of years back (other direction). I stayed on 60 through New Mexico. It's an *outstanding* drive!
That was a cool drive. I've done it.
Hi My Wife & I Just Watched Your Ch. FOR The Frist Time & It Was Great, & You Sound Like A Nice Guy So Show Yourself Once ln A While, It's Nice To Put A FACE With The Voice, Anyway Well Be Watching !!! 👍🙂
Welcome aboard!
I loved the sound of the cow echoing through that beautiful canyon!😀🇺🇸🚙🦚🐂
Keep your eyes on the road and your hands upon the wheel.
Nice drive.
Beautiful drive. Thank you 0:31
I was Sooo Blessed to Visit AZ from May thru September, 2022.
Based in SHOW LOW💝 Sooo Loved it there.
Was Hoping I could find a way to stay there
It's sooo Awesome !!!
Sure beats NYS.
But I, Thankfully, had someone to get me places. Because I wouldn't want to Drive there !!!
Crazier than NY(not the City~ FingerLakes,
72 Years.)
Here I'd thought AZ was ALL desert 🏜️.
Never had an idea about Mountains !!!!!!
Sure are on the 8 million Acres Apache Reservation in Cibeque.
Wonderful there in that whole region of AZ.
Wish I'd have gotten to see more
Glad, Somehow, Your channel came up.
Thank You. 😊
Saw the Unbelievable Salt Canyon on way up from Phoenix, after Flight.
Hello Russ I miss Az also my son he lives in Mesa wish I’d stayed love your vid’s i’ll be your shotgun rider lol be safe and God bless❤️🙏🏻
All the years driving that road, I didn't know about the first overlook you walked to. Will need to stop there on my next pass thru for pics.
Went thru Show Low back in 1991 on my way to South Carolina. Spent the night in Show Low.
Wow beautiful lands no one lives near
one of my favorite drives in the world! i make it at least once a summer, if not multiple times.... do yourself a favor, next time youre in globe stop by "burger house" or La Cocina de Casillas... get you a green mix burro. you wont be disappointed! best green chile ive ever had
quick note after you mentioning envisioning how people got around without bridges etc... there are alot of places along this drive that you can still see "old highway 60" which is the old dirt road they used to have to take from superior up to show low before the roads were improved post-WW2. my grandpa used to tell stories about driving on it. cool stuff. you can hike much of it if youre feeling spry
Would you sometime make another video around Wyoming and Utah area again? I'm just asking
Thank you r&b beautiful video appreciate it I like you a lot because Martin Dallas Texas God bless you ❣️
If I lived in Arizona, I would be spending all of my time in a RV just exploring and camping ..For sure...
Hey Russ, what Mo. ACTION CAM a GO PRO 10 are you using? Your audio is excellent I might add.
Russ. What a great job you have! I'm jealous. Lol
I love this guy. He's too cool for school 😂😅😊.
Long ago I drove it a few times going from Tuscon to Farmington or Cortez Co. I drove across the old bridge. I recall there was a small store with gas pumps once, it looks like that's all gone. I took a zig-zag on I-40 then went north on Highway 666 back then through the Navajo reservation another very long drive.
Are the lakes by Sprigerville any good to fish in? I use to spend the night up in those campgrounds when my parents were hosts there and before everything burned down.
thanks for the memories. I haven't been on that stretch of US 60 for years - since I was a kid. I used to be an otr driver but that route was just too far out of my way for it to make sense for me to include it in any of my trips.
In the 1970’s LIFE magazine did a piece on Flip Wilson and his Rolls Royce, they asked what stretch of highway was his favorite, he the US 60 through the Salt River Canyon.
Come through Houston sometime, you are always welcome to visit here.
There are wild horses down near, I believe, Saguaro Lake that probably just about live in the river at this time of year. That's a place I want to visit and also Canyon Lake.
I am not a rancher but I think That cow was crying for help!
Really enjoyed your video! The Salt River below the bridge was used to make the helicopter scene in the Robert Dinero movie "Midnight Run". The courthouse is in a scene too, I believe.
Russ,thanks for taking me along..don't drive like I use to.
Dang good ride there! Wonder what happened to the cow? 😌😁👍🏾👍🏾
Crazy drive down that way horrendous I remember when I was a kid and we had it up Highway 60 headed up that way to go fishing and not I was on the passenger side looking down and see no cars and stuff crash down in there it's quite that deal yeah enjoyed your video but that Highway and as you entered headed south on that Salt River bridge now I'll pass infrastructure problems I'll pass you're one Brave guy😊
We drove that route once with a very sick 9 month old baby, internal intestinal bleeding. Show Low to Phoenix. Helicopter wasn't available. Not a pleasant, scenic drive for us. She's okay now. All grown up, mother of 5 boys and a Customs/Border Patrol agent in Washington state. This video clip brought back memories.
Drove this road during Mother’s Day. My mom wanted to go to Tombstone. I noticed on another channel there were 2 teens that drove off the road 600ft during the winter and there is a monument for the one that passed away. Tragic.
good morning
The viewers need to take a windbreaker when going to Show Low from Globe. I made the drive from the Sho Low area to Phoenix then back to the White Mtn in a 1970's station wagon the first week of June 1970. In the city, we were covered with sweat in the 97 degree heat, but late that evening in Sho Low. It was in the upper 50's. I kept rubbing my arms to stay warm as we drove. I was so surprised at the temp difference. Eastern Arizona is a place of beauty and contrast. Truly the Salt River was something to behold. Thanks
Russ, I think you need to take a trip to Portal, AZ and tool around down there. I don't see many good videos of that area! Want to go there someday it looks beautiful.
