    "The more we get out of the car, the more we get out of the trip"...so true!

    Excellent video. I traveled that stretch along the Columbia River Gorge during my 5000 mile wild west road trip in 2006 ... as well as some of the others. I have been fortunate to have toured by car every state in the lower 48. I have walked in almost every National Park in the lower 48 and hundreds of state parks and national monuments. I consider myself extremely blessed. My eyes have seen a magnitude of brilliance. I am thankful.

    A few years back a buddy and I took a four-week road trip across America (from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic and back); it was one of the greatest trips of my life. I now live and travel in Europe but shall never forget the beauty and awe of America’s nature.

    Jus drove thru Colorado and Utah for the first time. Just driving on I-70 was very scenic. Now I want to go back and see more!

      I've driven many roads, Interstate and state highways. I-70 heading west out of Denver to Grand Junction is amazing. I enjoyed it better than the Pacific Coast Highway driving from SF to LA

    I rode a bicycle through the Avenue of the Giants, ( northern Calif. Redwoods), amazing what you can see when not in a vehicle.

    I’ll never forget seeing the Columbia River Gorge the first time. I had been living in OR for about 3 years and had no idea it existed. This was in the early 70s, before I-84 was built down along the river. A friend and I had gone driving just to watch the sunrise, when we came upon the Gorge. I was completely blown away. I’d never seen anything like it. These days, I drive through the whenever I leave my home in eastern OR and head to Portland or the Seattle area. It still takes my breath away.

    Don’t forget taking back roads instead of the highway.

  • @dougmacmcclelland1323
    @dougmacmcclelland1323 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    What some Americans have never though of or realized, is the difference between a highway and a parkway. Parkways started as just what they sound like. a Way thru a local or national park. this is why most parkways are so scenic and have grass or woods between the opposing direction lanes. Highways are the new roadway to go around the scenic route for the sake of speed and the shortening of the distance from one place to another

    Apparently, my home state of Pennsylvania didn't much feel like participating in "America's scenic drives". Tiny pieces of three shared byways reach a bit into PA. That's it.

      The run between Troy and Wellsboro on 6 is pretty exhilarating as is 15 coming south into Williamsport.

    A good book about byways is BLUE HIGHWAYS by William Least Heat Moon. A great read.

    On the map at the beginning, I noticed Texas (where I currently live) does have any scenic byways! (I also double checked on their website....NOTHING!!!)

    What about driving through the hood of a typical large city? Why no mention of that ?

  • @ilovegoodsax
    @ilovegoodsax 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    1:12 Notice there are no scenic byways in the entire state of Texas lol. When I had to drive from San Antonio to my next duty station in Clovis, NM during my Air Force days, I saw nothing but flat, ugly, dry land and tumbleweeds the entire 10 hour drive. That drive was depressing asf.

  • @rr7firefly
    @rr7firefly ปีที่แล้ว

    The US map shows not one scenic roadway in the state of Texas. A good number are in the Appalachian mountain area, as well as the Western states. (1:14) Anyone who has driven on IH 35 between San Antonio and Waco (200 miles that includes Austin and Temple) knows Texas' monotonous flatland. You'd have to drive on Hill Country roads or the roads of West Texas to see much of anything worth remembering.

      Actually almost most roads that are not highways are Scenic in Europe so they don't need to craft them also they have trains that go through some of the most beautiful parts of the world and also are more environmentally conscience

    Why are there no Scenic drives on any MLK Blvd's in America yet CBS?...They are all in the Heart of Democrat-controlled Cities..
    They should be so beautiful by now after 50 years of "Progressive" Politics....#walkaway...Trump 2020

    • @tedperry6466

      there is actually a scenic MLK Blvd in SF. It's near Golden Gate Park. I did a double take when I first saw street sign. LOL
