    Ok, this goes to the top of my list of favorite videos; ones that I will watch again. The beautiful sunrise over the mountains was a treat. The highway from Cortez was wonderful, though it got a little wonky near the Utah border. The change in the landscape is amazing. Did you experience the change in elevation? This is a keeper! Bravo, Uncle Coolie! Bravo! Seeing the sky change from dark to light was a treat also. What was that sound at the traffic light in Durango, CO, Uncle Coolie? 🤣

    • @unclecoolie
      @unclecoolie  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! I got to experience the elevations because I brought my Garmin GPS navigation which showed the elevations at all time. This day and the previous day (driving across the Great Plains) were the two days that I enjoyed the most of this trip, although I enjoyed all five days very much.

    Wow, that was a cold morning and again fantastic scenery. Over 10000 ft! Unbelievable that they built such a good road there. I guess that at that altitude the gasoline consumption was also very high. Once because of the slope and then also because of the little oxygen. In any case, a great experience to drive this fantastic road. Thank you for letting us be part of it!

    How do you plan for overnight hotel stay on your cross continental driving trip? And dealing with fatigue is another thing I want to ask, I mean the longest distance I ever drove is about 1000 miles away from my home, it was exhausting experience.

    • @unclecoolie
      @unclecoolie  ปีที่แล้ว

      I plan my trips in advance. I map out (using Google Maps, among others) to determine how much driving I can get in one day, and I plan my overnight stops accordingly. I'd do the same, in your case, and consider which freeways/roads to take, which parks/rest stops to spend time at, etc. I usually book my hotels, flights, rental cars, etc, at least 3-5 weeks in advance.

    You should look into becoming a Pilot given the number of miles you fly. Then hire a plane for these trips. When you take into account your lost labour hours it'll more than cover the cost of it compared to driving.

      It's not my camera. I keep track of the temperatures shown on the dashboard, about every 15-30 minutes. The camera has a temperature sensor, but it won't work inside a car, unless I just want to record the temperature inside the car.
