Tell Him hello and Thanks for watching

Love all your travels but right off the bat the casting and pouring of that statue must have been a nerve racking time for the creator that's a lot of detail. Great trip Mr. Russ👍✌

Absolutely love watching this..Thank you for sharing your travels..❤

HEY,HEY, It's RVerTV, Russ, I called Riding Shotgun today with Russ.👍

I really enjoyed this one. My aunt lives in Montrose and I am over there from Denver. Almost monthly. Always a great drive.

Wow! What a AWESOME museum!

Love small town Colorado. Awesome.

Very well presented I like your laugh very like the cartoon character Mr Magoo.which was on TV back in the sixty's.cheers steve.

That's pretty Russ thanks for paying ❤ I enjoy tagging along with you better anyway and don't like high places. Be safe and thanks again 🙏 brother

I drove over Monarch Pass three years ago. It had just started snowing and signs said to put on chains but nobody did. A big rig jackknifed. I saw my first mountain goat right beside the road. A real wild road trip. Be prepared.

Fort Collins. Disneyland history ✔️

Beautiful place in Colorado ❤

I was born in Canon City (pronounced Canyon). The Royal Gorge bridge is home turf. I have walked across it before it was anchored to the canyon walls when it really swayed. I rode my Harley across the bridge in2006. I took the train through the gorge in 2022, then took the helicopter tour over it later that day. My grandfather died in an avalanche on Monarch Pass in 1953.

I miss Colorado, thank you💕😽

Way too cool for school thank you for sharing this has been awesome❤

I hear Colorado is beautiful, my Granddaughter just moved to Colorado Springs last summer.

I love your KZread Channel, Russ! Too cool for school. I wish you safe travels. Talk soon, Alan.

I always enjoy your videos.

Wow sure is beautiful there, I just subscribed I’ll be watching for more.

What an amazing museum! I wonder how many years it took to collect everything! Definitely a place to put on my bucket list! Thank you for sharing!!!❤️

Before we retired we bought a beautiful 65 inch Sharp Aquois. Your videos are filmed in such high quality ,we enjoy them in our living on the week ends. Thank you for filming these, keep them coming !

Hey Russ I swear about 20 minutes earlier watching your Highway 50 through Colorado video I said to myself I wonder if you would ever install a side camera on your van no sooner had I continued to listen you mentioned how you said I guess I'll have to install a side camera on my van haha. It's like you're reading my mind over here in Oregon what a great video this has been

I lived in Colorado. Most of my life black forest Colorado never went to Gunnison, but that museum sure looked cool. I enjoy watching your channel and riding along with you looks fun. I like your laugh. I'll Keep watching

I remember going over that in my pickup 1978

Beautiful

Nice video. Thank you.

thank you Russ, it's always a pleasure to see your travels, thanks again!😍

I went rafting down the Arkansas River in the exact area that you made videos of. It was great but I got sunburned really bad. It was worth it nonetheless! FYI - general admission tickets are $ 29.00 if purchased online.

Great Russ, I enjoyed looking at it, thanks for sharing!

Google says this bridge is 955' and New River Gorge is 876.' Only a 79 foot height difference. The Royal Gorge has nice landscapes but, the New River Gorge landscape is just breathtaking. For those of you that have never been on or across it, know that it is a part of U.S 19. The first time I went across it, the only way I knew it was because, the only thing I could see was the road in front and sky. I've been across it in a car and smaller suv and tried to see trees or something, nope. I don't take anything away from Royal Gorge but, if I could only experience one or the other, it would be New River. From the overlook, which should be called the underlook, which is about 600' higher than the river, you look up and see this dark menacing structure almost 300' feet higher than where you're standing, seemingly growing out of all this greenery. Its just a mystical setting.

Thanks!

Thank you Terry !!

The museum’s is unbelievable especially the town and all of the collections in each building. Just amazing video of so much interesting things. I will watch it again😅

Thanks for the videos, I'm planning a road trip in September and find your videos brilliant.thank you ,keep up the great work

I found out recently your channel, and I love it. I really like this vibe

Thanks for the ride along. Beautiful state. Went a few yrs ago to Denver, Loveland, Ft Collins, Rocky Mountain National Park areas. Great Main Sts, museums, and historical areas. 🙂👍

Seeing that big wide main street in Gunnison reminded me of a little town I lived in for a while as a youngster. The town of Oamaru New Zealand dated from the mid 1800s and the main streets in those days were made wide enough for a Bullock Train to be able to turn around. Then I saw the NZ flag in the car section of the museum...

i love these type of videos got while driving , always remind me of country roads take me home song ❤❤❤

The first mural on ace hardware was from the movie true grit it was filmed around there

Hey Russ, happy Sunday! I drove that route several years back, it's really nice to re-visit it with you. Everything is so nice and green! One really cool spot in Montrose is the Museum of the Mountain West. Besides having a great collection of artifacts, they also have a bunch of historical building that they relocated from around the area. And as you found out, the Pioneer Museum in Gunnison is just fantastic. FYI, the West Elk Loop is really a terrific drive, especially in the fall when the colors are popping. (It's very twisty though, so I don't know how much fun it would be in the van) I'm guessing right about now you're out searching for wildflowers. Looking forward to seeing what you find in the coming episodes. Happy Trails!

My favorite drive in Colorado is the drive from Interstate 70 up to the top of Mt.Evans. I have not yet tried a similar high altitude road up to Pikes Peak but the Mt. Evans route is not open year round & since I was on it last one has to register ahead of time due to the high volume of traffic, I presume. Also the Mt. Evans highway is seasonal & only open (above Summit Lake) between Memorial & Labor Day. At least this was the case some 14 years ago but times have changed even the name, which is new to me.

Tx. Russ. Can't wait to watch.

What a beautiful trip love it! What time of year was this?

It was summer; not sure what month. I live in Colorado, about 10 minutes away from Hway 50...

Wow, I just found an old photo from Ouray, Colorado this week. Just saw a sign for this tiny place on your video

Blue Mesa dam was built in 1962 and finished 1965.😃

Russ beautiful trip. ? On the GoPro do you need several battery packs for filming, or usb plug in. Also understand can’t mute filming. What edit software do you use to talkover. Thanks

Definitely a bucket-list destination. You pick all the kinds of places I'd want to see Russ. No interest in cities. As @akgobears mentions below however,..the mountain passes have me wondering about the state as I haven't been there since I was little and don't remember it. Our little toyota rv doesn't care for long mountain passes much. It's not just the lack of power - it's the overheating. Lots of mountain passes out west along with hot days. To be honest, it's taken some of the fun out of rv'ing for us in the past. Not buying another motor! Super bloom! Blooming on the west coast has begun. No poppies just yet but just spotted lupin along hwy 1. Mountain-biked through lavender colored chaparral terrain yesterday, (buck brush and blue blossom/california lilac ),. Got wet in spotty rain. In fact it rained off/on all night and this morning. More to come later in week. Not sure if it'll hit the desert. Another good one. Cheers. 👍

😎😎😎

I love your videos Russ, I've been watching for years. Kindly tell me what the attachments are that are on the outside of the rear end sides of the van from top to bottom?

When you go again to Colorado go to Daniel’s park in highlands Ranch. There’s buffalos in that park.

22:20 where were those guys Surfing ??? Ben Gravy was that you ??? Aloha DSC777

Why don’t you show the RV parks you stay in, as a RVer I might want to stay if I had a on-site vew

According to the Bureau of Reclamation, the Blue Mesa Dam was constructed between 1962 and 1966, and is 502 feet tall.

Love this trip. Do you have one on Datoka

Russ do a video from the bottom you could do the whole arkansas river

You're lucky you're not trying this trip now -- the bridge across the reservoir has been closed because of cracks discovered in the beams!

You really need a gimbal

It’s Blue Mesa Lake not blue lake mesa! And it’s Mont’rose. But I forgive you, you’re not from Colorado.
