You have another winner here Kyle. Every time I watch one of these trips on the wide open road I want to grab my keys, Fill up the car and go! But then I remember gezzz I gotta work tomorrow.........;-p
Frederick Herriot I agree with you but they copied the Scenic Overlook from the Germans who built them in the 1930s for their Autobahn network which still triumphs the interstate highway system because their pavement is designed to last 20-50 years unlike the interstate highway which would have required a pavement Rehabilitation after 20 years if asphalt but 20-50 years if concrete
@@EpicThe112 The Autobahn is miles (or kilometers) better, with mostly asphalt pavement, better lane discipline, and no speed limit when practical. Granted the Interstate system is still within the top 10.
Great video and great music! I will be moving from Hot Springs, MT to Helena when my son graduates. He is joining the national guard. This video was very helpful. Thank you.
Very cool video! I suspect MOST of the traffic generated N of Great Falls are fellow Albertans travelling to and from the Sunbelt during the snowbird migration seasons since to get from Edmonton to Salt Lake, Las Vegas or Los Angeles all you have to do is stay on the QEII headed South and keep driving...
I've been along that stretch a couple times, stayed briefly in a little town called Clancy that you drove by.. I really enjoyed driving those wide open highways :) open highways.
Whoa, thanks for sharing as requested, Kyle! And I came to watch it as promised :) By the way, I just want to support your channel without getting a T-shirt. To be honest, the design doesn't quite catch me, but it doesn't stop me for wanting to support your channel. Where should I go to do so then? Your videos are masterpiece. They really help calm me down when I’m frustrated or stressed out. They, along with others' freeway drive videos, are my secret sanctuary, to be precise!
The last time I was on that road, the speed limit was 75 which I thought was way too fast. It is quiet north of Great Falls, although, in the Alberta side, Highway 4, which is the continuation of I-15, is also a divided 4 lane highway although it is not built to freeway specs like the Interstate. Every intersection is level and every railway crossing is at grade.
Thanks for capturing this beautiful and underrated stretch of road! I was waiting for a video of I-15 in Montana for years since no one seems to have gone over there until now. Any plans for capturing the rest of the interstate's Rocky Mountain Journey to Great Falls?
This video was filmed in 2014, the speed limit change occurred on October 1, 2015 from 75 to 80 MPH. I use resources such as the internet and various websites and even people in the general area to tell me when the speed limits change, to be as accurate as possible. You'll see this in my I-90 video as well where the speed limit changes between 80-65 MPH depending on the conditions. But, the speed limit is 80 MPH on this stretch between the I-90 interchange and exit 192 in Helena, where it is reduced to 65. It becomes 80 MPH again once leaving Helena.
Plus I always post when the video was filmed in the ending credits to clarify because things change over time, a freeway may be widened or re-stripped, and of course weather and time of year.
InterstateKyle Oh sorry didn't realize that the speed limit had changed since this video was filmed. I actually knew MT had an 80 mph speed limit, but didn't realize that it applied to this particular road. I guess this is what happens when I comment before watching the whole video lol.
Hey I get it all the time, at least you're nice about it, I can't tell you how mad some people get when things get dated and get all pissy about it. Like for example my Oakland video from 2015 said the Warriors won the NBA title 4 times, correct in 2015 they did win 4 times, but he said they've won 5 times (having won in 2017) but the video was released in 2015, so like I said, thanks for being nice about it, lol
Hi kyle that so nice video but I got a request if u can make a video take off from Vegas going north in 15 to Denver through the mountains thanks I love all video
nice mountain drive. Ahh, so that's the road someone would take up from Montana to get to Calgary & Edmonton. The traffic seems very low especially for an Interstate.
InterstateKyle interesting. I wonder why they decided to make it an interstate and not just a regular divided dual-carriageway with normal junctions. It seems like that would have been ok too. One of the big reasons I'm an advocate for Free Movement in North America is that you'd see a lot more usage of Interstates like this with people driving more freely between Montana, Alberta, Idaho, and Saskatchewan. This Interstate would receive much more traffic from people in Calgary.
I've gone that way four times. The Interstate leaves the mountains about a few miles before reaching Great Falls, then its in the plains for the rest of the journey. While traffic levels are low in this video they are near zero after Shelby, MT and don't rise again until well north of the border in Lethbridge.
@@InterstateKyle It is a trade corridor and part of the CANAMEX highway network. The Alberta side is all 4 lane as well to Lethbridge then continuing to Edmonton.
@@TransCanadaPhil On the Alberta side it is like that with level railway crossings and level intersections. Because this is an Interstate, it must be built to Interstate standards, which is a divided 4 lane freeway. A wide 2 lane highway would be adequate. If Alberta becomes the 51st State which is possible, because of the savage hatred of the PM and our lack of power to change that, then traffic levels will rise.
The most beautiful state in the USA, great video
Having visited Missoula and Glacier National park myself, I second that!

I gotta work tomorrow as well, darn it! I wish I had a job that involves driving and delivering LOL
One has to admit, the people who planned the construction of the Interstate Highways really had a good eye for scenic vistas.
Frederick Herriot I agree with you but they copied the Scenic Overlook from the Germans who built them in the 1930s for their Autobahn network which still triumphs the interstate highway system because their pavement is designed to last 20-50 years unlike the interstate highway which would have required a pavement Rehabilitation after 20 years if asphalt but 20-50 years if concrete
@@EpicThe112 it was also designed for tanks and humvees for that amount of time. Let alone cars

I loved this state.and good selection of George Harrison songs!Give me love my favourite
I grew up in Helena (go Bengals!); now living in Vancouver, WA.
Thanks for the video.
This is a road which I have always been interested in! It seems so windy and isolated from the rest of the network. I'm glad you have filmed it!
Great video and sound track..just bought land in Jefferson City finally leaving Europe to return home to Montana..😊
Soooo beautiful, Montana is beautiful. I wish I can live here.
sounds like the perfect place for Grand Prix Race training (70-80 MPH on straight and 25 on curves)!
Actually, lots of fun around 120-140 on the straights and curves 70-90 mph but you have to know how to high speed drift . Oh yes.
At one time there was no speed limit in Montana, just “reasonable and prudent.”
Great video and great music! I will be moving from Hot Springs, MT to Helena when my son graduates. He is joining the national guard. This video was very helpful. Thank you.
Beautiful country

Hey Kyle! After watching this, I really want to go up there to experience Montana for myself! I like that kind of solitude in the scenery!
I've never been north of Butte and that was way cool thank u music was great be safe out there America
This was uploaded on my bday and I was in butte that day also
Wow very beautyful Montana very good kyle
Holy cow! That's a lot of gold!
These videos are surprisingly relaxing. You just earned yourself your 7,000th sub.
Ahh Butte, love it or hate it, It's a very special town.
Whoa, thanks for sharing as requested, Kyle!
And I came to watch it as promised :)

Thanks, Kyle. Great video as usual.
the Big Sky really exists !
Wow very beautiful ride but whats up with all of the mobile homes? Something that just caught my attention.
Nice drive. The signs actually say that the speed limit is 75, not 80, which is perfectly reasonable for a road like this.

Do you have to pay a royalty to use sound tracks like that ??. How does it work ??
Is that a cloud that appears at 4.13?
nice mountain drive. Ahh, so that's the road someone would take up from Montana to get to Calgary & Edmonton. The traffic seems very low especially for an Interstate.
Besides Butte, Helena, Great Falls, and Glacier NP, there's little to no reason to be on this road unless you are traveling long distance.

Where and how do you have your camera mounted??
What is the soundtrack.9
Add a map in the video so that one can have a clue of the part of the nation.
Nice job
