I was around 10 years of age when family trips to the Gunnison River, about 1965. This was before the Blue Mesa. We stayed in an old one room cabin, next to river off an old railroad bed like a work camp. A big rock on a bend of the river, with a cable ferry to cross the river. The fishing was phenomenal. this is now ALL gone under the water of the Blue Mesa. I wish I could remember more of the beautiful place. Thank you for a trip down memory lane, stay safe
The Black Canyon, you just passed, is the Grand Canyon of Colo., it is simply breathtaking.. ! One mile down, sun doesnt reach it... hence the name... best attraction in.Colo.... at least put on Bucket list, Hutch
Wonderful traveling with you .
Always fun going to Gunnison. Fished at Blue Mesa lake every summer years ago.
Real good morning brother Russell on that million-dollar highway I got dizzy but it was a fun ride thank you God bless brother
Thanks for the video. Awesome. Gorgeous scenery. Safe travels!!!!
Thank you Russ 🙏🏻 I haven’t been well enough to travel/camp this year and your beautifully filmed videos really fill that void right now 😊 Do you leave your cameras up all the time? I would be nervous someone would steal them. PS that Gunnison mural was really nice 👍
Stayed in same KOA in Montrose on my way to Black Canyon, Gunnison, the pass to the east. Nice ride, indeed.
Wow, between the mural and the museum, what a nice little town.A good way to end the video with the beautiful river.I really enjoyed this video. Safe travels, Russ.
Incredibly beautiful country!
Really nice video. Beautiful drive, great museum. 🙂👍
Loved Montrose. We stayed at the same KOA . Black canyon of the Gunnison. Close to Your-ray ( not oo- ray). Highway 50 is a gorgeous ride to cross the rockies. Monarch Pass. Safe travels russ
Hi Russ , thank you for sharing. God Bless ! 🙏
Wonderful scenic video Russ, and that treasure of a museum. The squeaky floor (42) did it for me... and the old cars too ... definitely took a step back in time.
Love this video! Thanks for taking us along! ❤❤
Nice ride along. Thanks for sharing. Love blue Mesa lake and Gunnison was a neat town and the bldgs packed with history that was just amazing. Safe travels.
Great job mr. Russ👍, the museum had more stuff in it than the town😂 be safe✌
Memories Russtifer!!! Memories!!!!
Sturgis is a comin fast!!.... Ear plugs and spam n eggs!! Stay safe hoss and go see stuff!
Good timing, looking to do some hiking in black canyon in the near future. Nice preview.
Great job as always Russ! Travel safe sir 👍
Beautiful architecture!! ❤❤
On the Bucket List !
Yay!
Must be a good restaurant to have people waiting! Hope you were able to try it!!😊
Maps and Arial views > Nice > Thanks for adding them to your videos! 🗺🌎🗺 > They make a huge difference!
New subscriber.... because of this.
Good stuff MrRuss, lovin the rear view cam👍😎
Pioneer Museum, wonderful👍
Thanks!
SO pumped up with your New Mexico and Colorado road trip videos. Epic!
🎉👍🌞
Great tour...Thanks.
LOL Can't sit that long .... unless your moving!!! My last time in a movie theater was for "the Falcon and the Snowman" 1985!
Oh cool! At @42:07 there's an old metal Bread and Biscuit box. Bread on top and Biscuits on bottom! I have one similar to that one and it's the greatest keeper for them ever! Love the China sets in the next building, but dolls in that era gives me the heebeejeeby creeps. LOL
Highway 50 improvements are due to the infrastructure plan and some of that area really needed it. Drove through there a few weeks ago and it wasn't on a Sunday and we had to wait an hour and a half since everything was down to one lane.
We are staying in the Montrose/ Gunnison area right now
The one building you were in with the pictures with the men in their hats, it kind of reminds me of a skull and bones photo .
they should update that picture. A lot of our past presidents are skull and bones. wow this one was really full of a lot of history wasn’t it?🤔
Thank you for taking me on this journey. It’s been really the best one of my life.❤❤❤❤💥
thank you Keena
Gunnison Colorado, Too Cool For School, Thanks, RVerTV Russ👍
The Mural, pretty sure that is of Rooster Cog Burn; John Wayne!!?
Try going over the million dollar hwy. , in a semi truck with a load of hay. That was a lot of fun.
travelling over from Australia in August. Can you boondock anywhere along the 50?
👋👋👋🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏻😎
If you belong to the Elks, couldn't you camp at their location?

That was A Great Video & That Museum Was WORLD CLASS
Step on the gas ⛽️ 😎 RUSS and let's go 😊
Another fantastic video of your Colorado trip. My aunt and uncle lived in Gunnison years ago and it was his favorite place in Colorado. Now I know why he thought that way. I remember him talking about the museum and the small town atmosphere. You did a fine job putting this together. Thanks Russ! Safe driving and good health!
Was up that way back in May. Snow on the ground and beautiful country
That was a lot of road work. Hope you don't get into much more construction on the rest of your journey
THANKS!
You're welcome!
That corner with the Horse and Deer reminds me of the Winslow AZ. corner.
Russ, thanks a bunch for introducing me to America!! I grew up in the Projects of the South Bronx and have never seen the places you have shown me over the years. After watching all those Beer Steins at the Gunnison Museum, I had to go to the fridge and twist off the tab of my 40 ounce bottle of Colt 45 Beer and have a few glasses with some Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese and Pepper Jack Cheese. What an inspiring Gunnison Museum that was!! Be well, Mr. Russ. And thanks again. Victor in Quincy, Ma.

Blue Mesa reservoir, largest body of water in Colorado.
You need to check the Pioneer Museum in Minden Nebraska. Its huge and awesome.
Not one American is a thousand could live as the Pioneers lived ! We are too soft....
The Black Canyon of the Gunnison is amazing. 😊
Great trip, Russ. Thanks
🕊️ Beautiful Views
Traveling with
Russ RVerTV ⛰️🚐
Thank You!🌹Great History
We took the dam road when we went through due to the road work we had to. It was phenomenal, highlight of the trip that drive. View at the top simply incredible.
Spent the last few days a Pa Co Chu Puk Colorado State Campground in Ridgway , Russ .Revisited Gunnison Park Thursday . Sorry we missed you. Heading for Grand Mesa tomorrow , Friday.
Perhaps the most beautiful mural ( Gunnison Town . ) I have ever seen 😮 thank you
Good stuff brother! The lake at Gunnison freezes during the winter for ice fishing.
Hello Russ 👋
Living the dream, Russ! Thanks for the awesome tours!
It's 62° here in Hayward Calif. Its12:30p.m. the ocean sends us cool air most of the time. 👍
Pictures excellent. Love back door view s 🙂
I just want you say.I love your vids.they always bring a smile to my face.They are very well done.Thank you for sharing with us.I look forward to your next one..❤❤❤
Wonderful visit to the Gunnison Museum. Wow they had just about everything a person could think of in that museum. Thank you for inviting your viewers along on the trip. Take care.
Thanks for Sharing!
I had no idea that Gunnison was a town of museums! Wow! I’ll have to “Check it out!” Thanks!
Hi Russ, thank you for taking this trip. My husband and I live in Delta, CO just north of Montrose. Come see us. You can drive across the dam at Blue Mesa Reservoir and go to Crawford, CO to Hwy 92 and miss the road construction. It's a beautiful drive. I was second generation born and raised in Montrose. I have family in Gunnison. Please come to Delta:)
Bunch of cool little western towns - google maps along hwys 92/132 at the blue mesa reservoir. Had no idea so many towns were hidden away up there. Very cool museum complex in video. I'd need a few hours for that one. Cheers - 👍
mega millions jackpot is 1.25 billion drawing friday.
Gas, gas, gas, I think you spent all of your TH-cam allowance$ on gas$. It is cold in Yuma today, only 108F; compared to the last 3-weeks of 115F.
Awesome ❤
ty russ vido so cool we used have old phone have dial number i rember those home movies camer's my dad mommy buy there first one when i was 2years old 1958 still got someplace i was born in jan18 1956 how old are you??
Great content! My dad introduced me to your channel after I told him about one I'm going to be starting soon and how our content could overlap. Keep it coming!
I can't tell if we're coming or going. That back/reverse camera is too crazy.
This was delightful! We have driven from Dolores to Taylor Park through Montrose and Gunnison many times and oh, my, how that town has grown! The airport supports large jets year round. We moved to Colorado 28 years ago and before that had flown from Corpus Christi, TX to go skiing at Crested Butte. We loved the area but decided on an area that didn’t get so cold during the winter…..until last winter😂…we had non-stop snow for 3 months! I hope you can continue down the Million Dollar Highway to visit Telluride and Dolores on your way back to Arizona. Happy Trails to you!
My first 6 years of life. Gunnison Colorado. Love that area.
Russ, we love your rear view camera’s. Really adds another dimension
Did you ever go to Pioneer Village in Minden Nebraska?
Absolutely love the back camera view
Well done, thank hanks Russ⭐️😎
Colorado is beautiful
thats the denver & rio Grand railroad
wow! what a cool museum to visit. Thanks for sharing Russ.
That Gunnison mural looked like a 3d, beautiful!!
Absolutely beautiful drive!
Hi russ thanks for a great video i love the old town so many amazing places id never see other wise . Cheers mate🇦🇺
I can't believe you missed the National Park on such a short drive day, best area there
According to Wikipedia, they started construction of the dam in 1962, and it opened in 1966. It's 390 feet tall, and 785 feet wide. They had to relocate a cemetery to build it.
Love Gunnison ❤️ rafted down the Colorado River by there. What a ride it was ❤️
The West Elk is a stunning drive. My Buick sedan made the drive just fine - I don't remember any dirt roads. Great camping too. You missed seeing the canyon - incredible. Worth a trip on its own.
I was exhausted RIDING that million dollar highway with you! :)
That rear camera is fantastic! Sometimes I think your driving backwards.
Another fine installment. It looks like you could spend a couple of days at that museum and not see it all. Thanks for sharing your travels with us.
Another great day of a amazing adventure, awesome
Beautiful river Beautiful museum thanks Russ
I love the video russ thanks for sharing I like your humor safe travels ❤
Lived in Salida for a year in 81. Ever go there?
Thanks Russ. Montrose is my town for now. I have stayed at that KOA in a cabin and was fun. Gunnison is a great place to visit especially the Pioneer Museum. I've never been to that museum but have traveled to Gunnison and on up to Crested Butte from there. Beautiful country. Actually the water at Blue Mesa got very low a few years ago but has started filling up some. The river that runs through Montrose, Uncompahgre actually empties into the Gunnison River in Delta CO north of Montrose and then joins the Colorado in Grand Junction. Nice drive except for the construction that's been going on for probably two years. Hopefully one day it will be done.
Thanks!
Thank you
