I was camping in Indiana, yesterday and a gal told me to be sure and drive the MD Highway if I ever get to Colorado. Iām 73 and figured Iād never get to drive it. Woke up this morning, grabbed my phone to check the weather and up popped this video!!! It must be a God thing! Itās 9:40am and Iām still in bed watching this amazing video!!! Thank you!! Thank you!!!

Russ, this is the best video youāve ever done! We have traveled this area extensively enjoying all of the things you featured. The Durango and Silverton railroad, the Cumbre is in Toltec railroad in Chama New Mexico, the Hot Springs pools in Pagosa Springs, and of course the incomparable Million Dollar highway. Just wanted to congratulate you on a work of art.

I love watching your vlogs... It bring me peace. If the world were full of people like you that appreciate the simple things of life, we would be in blissā¤

Iāve only been watching your channel for a few months now and itās become one of mine and my boyfriendās favorite channels to watch together. I started watching you because it reminded me of my many RV travels with my Grandma over the years. Youāve been to many of the same places weāve been too. One thing I regret is not taking more photos and video with her on those trips. She now has Alzheimerās and can no longer take our beloved trips with me anymore. Your videos remind me of a time when we used to travel together and I look forward to every time you post a new one. š

Certainly glad you were the one driving this. I was "white-knuckled" in my armchair as you deftly made your way through these magnificent mountains. Thank you for taking me with you. You are living my dream.

Perfect ride Russ. Saved me thousands of dollars. Happy to travel with you right here in my easy chair.

The Durango train ride is incredible. Forget the price, it's worth it. Breathtaking scenery. I've done it twice and you can either do the full trip up and back or just do the ride to Silverton and bus ride back.

I am so glad i caught this vid. I drove that entire highway and did not realize at the time it was the Million dollar highway. All i know is once i left Utah, I entered on my gps, take me to New Mexico. That fall they had an early snow. Unknown to me at the time. I asked the GPS, take me the shortest way to New Mexico. OH my God, it was the most memorable drive i took to this day. Stunning at every turn. I did say many a prayer, that i didnāt fall off one of the step cliffs. Then, at one of the the last turnsā¦..Silverton appeared. I like you enjoy early morning road trips. Silverton, was shinning in the morning sun. Thank you for posting and glad you too had. Grand time. God bless

Really enjoyed riding with you this trip! It was quite a long video. I can see how it would be tiring driving for long distance with the switchbacks. Thanks for the ride!
-
Loved it!! Absolutely spell bindingly gorgeous and photogenic. Great job of capturing it.
-
Love your long road trip videos, Russ. They give me a reason for living and getting my old van ready for next summer. Hopefully, I'll be able to see all of these beautiful places over the next few years as a full-time nomad on the road. Take care.

I am watching this vid again. Everytime I see the million dollar highway vids I want to go over it so bad. I am in Florida flat. Ha. Love the way you get so excited when a tunnel comes up. Keep them coming. Thanks Patsy
