13-05 Denver Colorado - I-25 North and South at Nightfall

[@GoJoGeoff]

very cool vibe with that music - and very nice ride - again!

[@PeteTheChopp]

Your I-76 footage brought me here again. Thanks!

[@Freewayjim]

Cool! Thank you.

[@Freewayjim]

Yes, I have about 7-8 videos coming between Denver and Salt lake City. Really there is nothing worth filming outside the cities before you get to Denver, I don't film for the sake of filming, the road has to have some kind of redeeming quality to it.

[@Samgoogolplexian]

That was amazing; the combined views of the sky and the highway near the beginning are beyond beautiful.

[@dave11686]

Awesome! I had a layover in Denver a few years ago and have an internet friend in Westminster, CO. One of these days I shall visit Denver!

[@InterstateKyle]

I miss Denver! Thanks for the video and great night tour of the city! Greetings from Great Falls, Montana!

[@adogg619]

Even at 8:45 PM, there is still light in the sky. It makes the drive very pleasant. Nice video!

[@cochrab]

Great video and presentation, Jim! I really enjoyed it.

[@socarboy]

Fantastic job! You picked the right time to film in the evening and had a great dusk sky to work with against the city back drop!

[@TheSolarcatcher]

Nice ride and the camera is looking great at night! Looks like a nice place to drive around ... except in the winter.

[@expresswayjess]

Awesome job as always Jim. I'm chomping at the bit for those Cali videos

[@xxosaroxx]

Great video and an excellent choice of music. It matched the vibe of the city!

[@BossChronicles]

Beautiful can’t wait to Move here

[@taykhamilton]

Still not over your beautiful intro of Atlanta.

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you! I wasn't in Denver very long but it looks like a neat city. I accepted your video response, thanks.

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks, glad you liked it, the night videos require a much different mood than the usual fare.

[@necroslair]

Nice work, Jim! Wish my camera worked as well in the dark as yours does. Thanks for the ride...

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks for watching, glad you liked it!

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you!

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks Scott, There was no picking the time here, this was shot literally as we rolled in to town, good luck I'd say!

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you! The Rockies videos coming next week are pretty special.

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you very much!

[@OterraTV]

Great video! This helped relieve some of my homesickness! :)

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks for watching!

[@Freewayjim]

Nothing weird about that! Thanks for watching!

[@djscrizzle]

Here's a quick video idea next time you're in the area: Approach from the north around Thornton or so, on 25 south, make a loop around downtown on East 270, a short jaunt down 70 east bound, then drop down 225, and come back up north again on 25. Makes for a very visually interesting video/experience. I drove that exact route this weekend. Love them freeways up in Denver!

[@asteyhighways]

Fantastic ride, Jim, and excellent choice of music! (Can't wait your videos about L.A. fwys at night!!!!)

[@jmvfrva]

really enjoyed this one - twilight vids are special.

[@CosmoPhotography]

The skies in this video came out beautifully! Your new camera does a damn good job at night! Great work.

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks!

[@i-2575]

thanks for driving on me, it makes me feel happy that im important.

[@dvferyance]

Cool I am going to be in Denver this weekend

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks, yes they are fun to work with.

[@Freewayjim]

Glad I could help, thank you!

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks, glad you like it!

[@BeckettSong]

I remember one time when my family and I were traveling to Cincinnati(back when I lived in Conn) and on I-80 in Pennsylvania traffic was "paralyzed" for a couple hours maybe more. I'll never forget that. 6:20

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks Geoff!

[@epictornadofleak101]

Will you do one of vail pass or glenwood canyon on I70? Those offer very amazing scenery

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks Kyle!

[@Freewayjim]

Denver is a very nice city!

[@louderkickerbass5736]

Denver cool awesome

[@Freewayjim]

Yes indeed, I went to LA on my trip, have not looked at the footage yet but should have plenty of videos.

[@kellerjeff1]

Great video, perfect audio.

[@TacosTuesdays]

haha nice! i love that you were in my city!

[@Freewayjim]

I wasn't there but 12-13 hours but from what I saw it looked nice.

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks, because it was difficult to navigate it its original configuration, Google it to learn more.

[@draaier327]

I always look up to the high quality you make it's very good the imagines are so still how do you fix that can you expose that ?

[@Freewayjim]

Those are old maps I have, you can get a good size lot for a reasonable amount on ebay with regards to those.

[@efrem1]

Did you drop down into the Four Corners? I was up there last week and it is beautiful, yet desolate.

[@justinhundley2456]

Am I right? Is Denver, Colorado the state capital of Colorado? And I wish that the light posts were small like Chicago Illinois. :(

[@ThatCodeBlue]

I agree with Jeffrizel1986. Great views of a great city.

[@danielalmquist1264]

Pause at 2:06. Beautiful view of the suburban areas!

[@RedHeart64]

Are you going to be posting any videos of the roads between the cities?

[@betterrecognize4558]

Any chance that you'll do an I-95 or Merritt Parkway (Route 15) video from Greenwich, CT through the state?

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks, it would have been even better had I thought to clean the damn lens :P

[@Dan_1022]

why can I nit accept the fact that the mousetrap isn't so I'm preside but I still love it... I just love the long ramps I guess... and the way that it's like from the bottom levels.. maybe idk... maybe the history.. idk why I think of it as an awesome interchange when it's not supposed to be.. I've had trouble with this lately that I don't know what it is..

[@civilhistoryfan1981]

How did you like Denver? I used to live by I-70. I would advise you to stay off I-25 during rush hour. By the ways thanks for putting it up on KZbin.

[@edkollin]

Did the altitude/thin air effect you?

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks, it's a cool city IMO!

[@PeteTheChopp]

Great video as always Jim! I was wondering where you get the images of the old 1960's maps you put at the beginning of your videos. Are these maps you own? or is there a website you get them from? I love looking at old maps. Also, will you be making any videos from footage of the Salt Lake City area?

[@Freewayjim]

Did not have a chance to do that this time around.

[@Freewayjim]

I did not get to, hopefully I can see that someday.

[@Muffissness]

YAY!!! You finally got to Denver! Love your videos no matter where they're filmed! I created a video response of the skyline during the day. Hope you like!

[@Freewayjim]

Yes and yes and then some! I filmed over 150 miles of I-70 west of Denver.

[@Freewayjim]

I like the NJ Turnpike and have a couple videos of parts of it, granted, south of Exit 6 there's nothing to see.

[@CottonCreativeStudios]

Any chance of coming out to Los Angeles and doing some videos out here?

[@Freewayjim]

I did not notice anything to be honest, and we were as high as 11,158 the next day at the Eisenhower Tunnel..

[@Freewayjim]

I'd agree, thanks!

[@Jaya-baya]

Bad music

[@Freewayjim]

@@Jaya-baya No, just not your taste, and that's OK, the music works very well.

[@WarnerCollector]

You should have your own show!

[@Freewayjim]

It's an informal name, not being from the area I don't know how or why it was chosen. My guess is because of the quirky nature of the original interchange along with it being tough to navigate at that time. I really did not want to waste two text boxes explaining that to be honest.

[@stevenbass9416]

@Freewayjim, I wonder did you went in and under the Convention Center on Speer??? It's pretty cool!!!

[@Thinker669]

I never knew about that huge car wreck on the mousetrap in 1984.

[@Freewayjim]

San Francisco, LA, SD and Vegas.

[@Freewayjim]

Yes it is.

[@RenlyKleekai]

did you go to San Francisco and Seattle?

[@Freewayjim]

I filmed CT-8 and Glenwood Canyon coming up so curves don't bother me at all, in fact they make for good video. The Parkway just doesn't do anything for me and I-95 in CT is just horrible.

[@Elevatorelectricgate]

Driving on the dance floor

[@Freewayjim]

No, I did not get anywhere near there.

[@CosmoPhotography]

haha hey, it happens. We've all been there! :-)

[@fleXcope]

Would like to see a video of Denver Downtown

[@mungojerry311]

Why is that interchange called The Mousetrap? You never fully explained that.

[@DJR5280]

i hate the on ramp to 70 westbound from vasquez , almost got nailed by a 18 wheeler last night that decided to get in the slow lane right as i am merging onto 70.....thank good ness i have great brakes on my truck.

[@Freewayjim]

Yeah for the duration of the whole trip, doh!

[@Freewayjim]

That probably not someplace I'll get to, sorry.

[@BeckettSong]

3:51 shows Hotel VQ. I looked it up on Google Maps and found out it is permanently closed now.

[@wschmrdr]

Good, you didn't run into the stadium! :P

[@ObesityFantasy-pq4ub]

South Park lives

[@edkollin]

Agree about I-95 in CT especially from New Haven west. Dislike Jersey Turnpike also

[@edkollin]

IMO Merritt Parkway is not boring but probably too quaint and curves to often for you.

[@Freewayjim]

LOL, Thanks!

[@devinimondi6644]

3:12

[@Freewayjim]

Uh yeah, that's kind of the plan, smh.

[@toddthevloggingguy4720]

Bigger hills of Rocky Mountains of Highest

[@Freewayjim]

Excuse me? you don't tell me what to film, got it? Now if you want to pony up a few $K we can talk.

[@Freewayjim]

Not likely, both are boring roads IMO and I won't be in that area for at least a year if not more.

[@SnoopEastwood]

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you very much!

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks!

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you!
