Been down this highway several times working for uship. Desolate and beautiful plus I found it peaceful having zero traffic to battle. Drove it on moonless night heading east and the stars were magnificent. Safe travels.
I've been on highway 50, it's really dark with hardly any traffic and sometimes when you go over a pass with trees, you'll more likely see eyes glowing from behind a tree.
Great Basin National Park, just to the west of the border, has been designated as an international dark sky park. The National Park Service claims it has the best view of the Milky Way in the lower 48 states. Wish my wife and I had enough time to check it out when we visited Lehman Cave.
My wife and I went down Hwy 50 back during the pseduo gas shortage of the 70's. I drove more than one hundred miles without seeing another car or truck. It was wonderful.
As you get older the sleepiness after eating is common. I am 79 and rolled 670 miles IN HOME last September, didn't eat all day. Just snacks and coffee. I knew what would happen if i ate a full meal.
I drove that highway a bunch of times when I was working on the construction of those windmills. We stayed in Ely and drove out every day. Thanks for the views.
Wonderful! Although I'm a Londoner I've driven the whole of Highway 50, Ocean City to Sacramento also Highway 1 Fort Kent to Key West...gotta luv a USA Roadtrip!!
Always fun to see the roads I once traveled again. I did them much like you except in a service van. This was before cell phones, so one had to be prepared for anything and usually take care of it by yourself. First took Hwy 50 in a U-Haul heading East and I was on fumes. Thrilling!
I live in Reno and go deer and antelope hunting around Austin, NV. I had to laugh when you noticed a road in the distance and wanted to see what was up there. I do that all the time. I drove the dirt road from Austin to Tonopah once. Cant wait to do it again 100 miles of dirt. I just watched an hour of Hwy 50 driving. I love that drive. Thank you.
Perhaps its impertinent, but a ask my self this morning watching your long road movie how many people like, loves mike in the right sense of course. I think a lot an well over the world . How many can say that. We enjoy you Mike keep it safe respect,from the Netherlands.
Watching your video makes you feel like your riding in the truck and seeing the countryside. I've never see that part of the country so it's very fascinating. Thanks for sharing.
You are right about I-80 Mike. That freeway is so heavily travelled and has a lot of ruts in the right lane. As you know, Donner pass can be a pain during storms too. Thanks for sharing vids with us!
Drove that road in 1969 in my 54 hemi New Yorker..... never under ninety mph..... mostly in the three digits..... my misspent youth..... thanks for the memories
I used to haul corn to a ranch at Baker NV. it was called Baker Ranch . You can see it from Hiway 50 straight east of Baker about a mile.I hauled it from Greeley Co.
The first time I went through Austin Nevada was 1981 and it stuck with me because the way it's built on the side of the highway the last time I went through that town was 93 thanks for the ride along
Good old hiway 50 enjoyed it as much as the last time. Seems like a good smooth road, not too many rough spots. Scenery is certainly beautiful. Hope you have a safe trip rest of the way. Thank you for the ride. Edward
Has anyone else seen the lady in a dress walking the fog line at night at Sacramento Pass Highway50? I'd swear she went right through my fender without flinching on a snowy night. I'll never forget it. 👻
I took a drive from Sacramento to Baker and back via US-50 just to experience it probably 4-5 months before this video was taken. Such an enjoyable experience!
What a wonderful place to see. Thanks for taking me along. I was wondering do you ever get sleepy on a road like that? Well got my answer you take a nap. God Bless you and your family safe travels. Thanks for a nice quite drive. Love your channel.♥️🇺🇸🤩
Middle of nowhere works for me every time. I'll be in Nevada and Arizona in about a week for camping/kayaking fun !! My 13th year of paid retirement.....Awesome!!
Very interesting scenery and terrain. Thanks for sharing it. Also you've been so positive about Utah and nice to us in comments about our state. Much appreciated.
I took II took Rt. 50 back in 2012 on a trip to the Left Coast. For some reason I saw Austin, Nev. on a map when I was in 5th grade and wanted to see what it was like. Left Wendover, Utah, and headed west. Got to Austin and LOVED it!! Didn't want to leave. Wife went ballistic. Said she'd hitchhike to Carson City and fly home and I could stay. She won that argument. Damn city girl. I still believe there's lonelier roads in Mississippi. I watched the vid for over 22 minutes so I could see if Austin looked the same only to see y'all skipped it. Boo! Guess I'll have to go back and see. Leave city girl home and take my old cat this time.
Where this video starts out going through the cut in the rocks I think that is at the top of the hill near the UT-NV state line. One night late in the winter I had a small herd of Elk cross the hiway in front of me and it scared the crap out of me but it sure woke me up.
I drove my semi all the way from Idaho Falls to Las Vegas on Hwy 93, just as lonely and scary in the night time, too many narrows and curves, I was glad when it was over, don't want to do it again though!
Thanks for the videos. Thanks for allowing me to ride shotgun. I'm from Fairbanks Alaska and have never had a CDL or driven freight but I've spent a lot of time on the rode in Alaska, Canada, and the Lower 48. I'm 76 and really enjoy your videos. Thanks also, for keeping away from political comments.
Thank you for the ride. I imagine you are the driver of that semi that past the man walking along a dusty Winnemuca road while toting a high top canvas covered load. You stopped and the song was written. Be safe.
@@ridingshotgun1251 I sit, entranced, by your videos. The good Lord, in all his wisdom, made a gorgeous planet for us to be on for a short while. I remodel homes and am bound by the dictates of my chosen profession. No complaints but sure is nice to see sectuons of the gorgeous planet through your windshield.
Great video, amazing contrasts of views. Those mountain views just mesmerising but I don't envy you those long, long straight roads regarding maintaining vigilance, respect to you.
Thank you very much! I kind of had it on my bucket list, to drive down one of these fantastic highways in America. Now I've seen it. Where I live, one cannot drive a single mile without seeing at least a farm and not for more than ten minutes to reach the next village or a city. Thank you very much for the ride!
Its Helen...Another great shotgun ride with you is a pleasure anytime...love riding along with you. Thanks for taking of your time to take us all through those little towns...almost felt like I was back in time...really cool...Thanks Mike
Nice ride, isn't it? You are an able driver too! Very dangerous roads but amazing views at all,anyway I enjoy sightseeings that you show us,thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the ride, it was pretty cool trip. I felt as though I was in the cab with you. Nice quiet trip, one road that you don't want to have a breakdown on. Your truck was quiet, never realized that they were. Happy trails Mike.
I am watching your video now. My internet off for a day or two. I wanted to share (I guess TH-cam don't allow that) a pic I took of our traffic jam today headed into Napa, CA. There was two beautiful balloons showing up in the sky.....well I guess someone got distracted watching this....not good. Now seeing Eureka, NV....what a cute town. Back at you later after viewing rest.
Just take lots of food, water and warm blankets with you. By the morning when it's light someone will pass and you can flag them down. 50 is quiet but someone will eventually pass by.
It's a good idea to get off the road before sunset. There's no point in rushing through it and driving into the night. You can't see and enjoy the views after dark, and starting about dusk and continuing into the night is when your risk of hitting a deer or something larger increase substantially . I've also seen elk out there and free range cattle along the roadside and actually in the roadway, and you really don't want to hit either of those. Take your time, plan on hitting a town and a motel by about dusk, and enjoy a relaxing drive. An auto club membership and cell phone is a good idea too. I didn't pay much attention to my phone when I made that trip by motorcycle but, depending on your carrier, I don't think there are many places along US 50 in Nevada these days that that you wouldn't have cell service and a town with roadside assistance within reasonable distance.
Thanks Mike enjoyed the mountains snow made them really stand out. And of course your Mexican over drive good conversation. All ways enjoy the old towns. Thanks again.
Great to see from the truck. I have ridden that road twice on USA Tours on my motorbike, stayed in that little town of Jackson. Did you know that part of the movie with Steve McQueen I think it was called Vanishing Point was filmed there. So many of the roads you do I have been lucky enough to ride but there is a hell of a lot I havn't. Great videos. I am a Kiwi Trucker, own business, and always wondered about doing some Interstate work
Gorgeous scenery! I’ll have to do that road sometime. The weather looked very cold, and made the area look even more desolate and far from anywhere, somehow.
I have driven this road to far East as Eureka. On my simulator, I have flown it's entire length. It starts from Sacramento and terminates on the Atlantic. I am on that flight "US 50". I am just East of St Louis East Bound. I fly with the auto pilot set for 2000 feet above the ground. I tweak the heading bug to stay on track. And there is Old 66. It has been paved over by the Interstates. I think of "The Grapes of Wrath" and how many bones that were dug up.
The pioneers on the California Trail avoided this specific route like the plague. Instead, they took the route laid out by present day I-80. The reason? The Humboldt River. Look at the dozens of miles of barren country he traverses between mountain ranges and ask yourself where oxen would find a drink.
Mike nice video funny I was thinking as you said using M OD. Dose he ever kick it out!! Well that answer that Agn Tnx's for the ride along , like being back in the seat. 73
To STOP the DROWSINESS instantly : Chew something crunchy -- such as small pretzels. Works for me every time, instantly. I know you're a professional, but I just offer this solution. I have no idea why it works. (Obviously digesting a big meal makes you sleepy.) Another beautiful ride - thank you.
Yep. I chew crunchy snacks if I start to get drowsy. Never heard anybody else recommend it. I also slap myself a few times to make my cheeks sting. It's like rebooting the brain. I've also pulled over and done the 30-minute power nap. It all helps, depending on the situation.
Been down this highway several times working for uship. Desolate and beautiful plus I found it peaceful having zero traffic to battle. Drove it on moonless night heading east and the stars were magnificent. Safe travels.
I love that long, lonely highway. Wide open spaces. I would really like to see the night sky out there, I'll bet it's amazing.
Yes it is beautiful out there luv that sagebrush smell

Frederick Martine eyes from?
@@TheLocalLt : glowing eyes from a cryptid like Bigfoot, Dogman or even an Elk.
My wife and I went down Hwy 50 back during the pseduo gas shortage of the 70's. I drove more than one hundred miles without seeing another car or truck. It was wonderful.
What wonderful majesty from our creator. I don't think I could go to sleep with all of that surrounding me. Thank you for your great video!
Mother Nature and Father Time thank you.
I love this scenery.
You see the sky?? Anyone see the sky?? No wonder it's so cold.
As you get older the sleepiness after eating is common. I am 79 and rolled 670 miles IN HOME last September, didn't eat all day. Just snacks and coffee. I knew what would happen if i ate a full meal.

Watching your video makes you feel like your riding in the truck and seeing the countryside. I've never see that part of the country so it's very fascinating. Thanks for sharing.
A clock reminds of time reminds of eternity and asks for the meaning of life in a beautiful creation on one road with two directions. Peace, bro.
You are right about I-80 Mike. That freeway is so heavily travelled and has a lot of ruts in the right lane. As you know, Donner pass can be a pain during storms too. Thanks for sharing vids with us!
Drove that road in 1969 in my 54 hemi New Yorker..... never under ninety mph..... mostly in the three digits..... my misspent youth..... thanks for the memories
From Austin to Ely is my favorite stretch. The most beautiful drive I’ve ever been on, and most peaceful.
I have a 55" tv screen and I switched to full screen and it was like riding with you. I got a great view.! Thanks for posting I will check out more.
I love your lonely highway! Of course from the safety of my house!!!! Stay safe and thank you for your videos!
Wow, that's a real Southern American Gals name!, sorry I'm in Newzealand Lol
I used to haul corn to a ranch at Baker NV. it was called Baker Ranch . You can see it from Hiway 50 straight east of Baker about a mile.I hauled it from Greeley Co.
Did you ever get a chance to visit the cave above the town of Baker.
Just found your channel and WOW! So much fun riding shotgun!! Love seeing all these places I could never get to in person! Great job!! God bless!
Thank you Amy.. and thanks for watching ☮️
Me too
Make that me too as well.
This was the first time I saw your video on Highway 50 in 2019. I really like all of your videos.
The first time I went through Austin Nevada was 1981 and it stuck with me because the way it's built on the side of the highway the last time I went through that town was 93 thanks for the ride along
You filmed this video on my birthday. Stay safe driver. Absolutely beautiful driver that view of the mountain range. He loves that caddy.
Enjoy to watch that, so beautiful snowy mountains. Beautiful long straight roads, so amazing loneliness
I've done this on a motorcycle...the open range and cattle made it no problem to not doze off...
Don't wanna end up like superman!
Beautiful drive. I love desert scenery, but mesmerizing to put one to sleep.
Absolutely.. have to slap myself awake a few times.. lol
Good old hiway 50 enjoyed it as much as the last time. Seems like a good smooth road, not too many rough spots. Scenery is certainly beautiful. Hope you have a safe trip rest of the way. Thank you for the ride. Edward

Drove 50 from Carson City to Ely. Beautiful country.
Thanks for the video. :)
I used to travel hi way 50 a lot when I would load Mag-Ox at Gabbs NV. for return load back to UT, MT and Colo.
Nice Loren.. I take it as much as possible.. thanks for watching ☮️

I used to drive from Boise to Vegas 84/93/6/93. Wasn’t a semi, but I loved being so alone for 9-10 hours. I love Nevada.
One of the best videos I have seen so far from you. Gorgeous scenary. Thanks for sharing this video.

Your a good man Mike and a smart one too take a nap when you need to tthanks for considering others on the road

Ran that highway some in the early 80s hauled mt soda cans from richmond ca. To Denver double trailers windy days were interesting lol
I bet.. the wind can be fun when light.. lol
What a great video! Very beautiful and relaxing!
That was incredible, very cool ride across Colorado and west on Hwy 50. I don't know how those little towns survive but I'm glad they do.
Awesome drive and amazing views! I've done it a few times from Utah to Carson City NV... My favorite is coming into Austin NV...
Went cross country from Klamath falls to Winnemucca once, that’s pretty desolate road too. Your video reminded me of that.👍
Nice ride, isn't it?
You are an able driver too!
Very dangerous roads but amazing views at all,anyway I enjoy sightseeings that you show us,thanks for sharing!
Great video, thank you very much.
Enjoyed the ride, Thanks!!
Right on Two B.. thank you and thanks for watching ☮️
Too beautiful to doze off. Thanks for your free ride!
Anytime Sungsook and thanks for watching ☮️
Great ride as usual Mt Mike, thanks
As a truck driver myself I love going on the US backroads so lonely peaceful and calming
yeeeep brings back very good memories thank you.
I love doing my workouts watching your videos😆🥰 feels like I'm going Somewhere!
That rode looks dark and spooky at night. My Freightliner had these dim headlights, hated them.
That was a really cool Ride Along thank you for posting it.
Been along this section numerous times. Lehman Caves is at the border. Stayed in Baker numerous times. Its a nice run.
It would be interesting to know the stories of the people who own the land and occasional homes/ranches you passed on this route.
Thanks for the ride, it was pretty cool trip. I felt as though I was in the cab with you. Nice quiet trip, one road that you don't want to have a breakdown on. Your truck was quiet, never realized that they were. Happy trails Mike.
Pick me up, I'll ride with ya! Got lots of stories to keep you awake! 😆 stay safe dude!

I would love to drive this route but my biggest nightmare would be breaking down, in the middle of the night.

I worked for Waste Management for 8 years, 6 yrs in MN, and 2 in TX...Rear load, side load and automated side load....Was a decent company...

Vanishing Point (the original one) starred Barry Newman.
Beautiful ride Mike 👏, stay safe 👍🤜!
Good road for a sports car. One day I'll get out west. :)
Nice footage of Austin. I've never been through there when there was snow on the ground in town.
Gorgeous scenery! I’ll have to do that road sometime. The weather looked very cold, and made the area look even more desolate and far from anywhere, somehow.
thanks for showing me all these places l ll never get to.
Most enjoyable thanks bud stay safe 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸
Used to drive that rod from US 77 to Business 83 in KS.
Beautiful drive thanks again mate peace
I have driven this road to far East as Eureka. On my simulator, I have flown it's entire length. It starts from Sacramento and terminates on the Atlantic. I am on that flight "US 50". I am just East of St Louis East Bound. I fly with the auto pilot set for 2000 feet above the ground. I tweak the heading bug to stay on track. And there is Old 66. It has been paved over by the Interstates. I think of "The Grapes of Wrath" and how many bones that were dug up.
Great wide open spaces plenty of elbow room. Be safe mike.Signing off.
Safe Journey. Thank you
awesome to basically see the same thing the pioneers saw coming out west. only difference? they walked the whole way.
i would love to see their Facebook :)
Wrong, the horses walked, they rode! 🤪
The pioneers on the California Trail avoided this specific route like the plague. Instead, they took the route laid out by present day I-80. The reason? The Humboldt River. Look at the dozens of miles of barren country he traverses between mountain ranges and ask yourself where oxen would find a drink.
Beautiful area! Great video!
My brother and sister live in SLC. I have been from Denver thru Grand Juction to SLC, and they Cheyenne, WY on I-80 to SLC!
Mike nice video funny I was thinking as you said using M OD. Dose he ever kick it out!! Well that answer that

Makes me homesick.

I know you're a professional, but I just offer this solution. I have no idea why it works. (Obviously digesting a big meal makes you sleepy.)
