    Always enjoy your road trips. Wish you had included the return journey down the mountain as well. You don’t even have to talk much and it is still a refreshing experience. Very relaxing and beautiful. Will be watching this a few more times.

  • @amanda69
    @amanda69 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I was born in Ruidoso NM. That road is really fun in the winter time snow packed, a little scary lol. I would go skiing every week in the winter. In the winter time they have the road closed going up after 4 p.m. or 4:30 so they can have both lanes open for people coming down the mountain, that's when you really see the crazy drivers.
    There are hardly any guardrails. When I see the road crew in other parts of New Mexico putting guard rails on barely even a little dip, I laugh and say why don't they go up to the ski run and put them up there, so they will be of good use. You know what I'm talking about! Haha.
    Have fun on your road trip:)

    Brings back a great memory - crossing the US from California back to miami 1981 - I had to stop in Ruidosa to pick up a lady that I had dropped off there on the way to California to visit her friends - I drove over the mountians at night in my 1980 Z-28 camaro - I was riding above the clouds on a full moonlight night - it was the most incredible ride looking down at the clouds on the side of the road - there was no one else on the road and it was the most peaceful ride I think I had ever taken. Its like you never want to leave and just keep driving.

    'Hell, let's do this,' is right! Light that candle, get that White House in the sky. Watch out for Sluggo, Mr. Bill. Note: the wife and I did go off the edge while pulling an RV. We rolled forever. 35 years-ago. Numerous injuries, but survived. Scars today. Life goes on, Captain. Set sail, let X rocket fly.

    OMG. This is my favorite mountain drive videos. Love the view.
    It would be fun to see the descent. Hauling down that mountain, with you white knuckling the steering wheel. Us sitting in the phone camera, staring out that windshield to the view... hollerin' "Wheeeeeeeeeeee!"
    Just joking.
    Thanks for the endless beauty, Amigo.

    • @dorianchriste8645

    Rusty, I'm nervous 😟 just watching you climb this mountain. Reminds me of my trip through the Blue Ridge Mountains. I was 20 at the time and thought it was beautiful but was as nervous as a cat in a room full of rockers. I'm 70 now and couldn't do it again. Enjoy.

    Rusty you definitely are a Texan who is use to the plains. If you were born and raised in the mountains what you just shared is a casual Sunday drive. Beautiful! Now that you have a second base of operation closer to greater geographic relief I hope you explore like this more. God Bless!

    You should’ve went further to Ski Apache and rode the gondola up to the top top. Those are breathtaking views! You could see Alamogordo, Tularosa, white sands moment. 👍🏼 Then rode the zip line down. It’s the longest zip line in the world.😁 My tribe owns the ski resort. MESCALERO APACHE!!!! 👊🏼

    If memory serves me, that road ends at the Ski section. So beautiful! I have found that higher elevations make me nauseous even though I increase my water intake. So, no skiing for me! Very interested in that campground further down the mountain though.
