California | Death Valley's Amazing Roads

Episode 5 - Riding Solo AZ to BC: After a morning dip in Tecopa Hot Springs I get on my BMW 1200 GS motorcycle for a ride into Death Valley California, passing through Death Valley Junction along the way and visiting the Amargosa Opera House. I ride some amazing roads and end up motorcycle camping in the Alabama Hills near Lone Pine, California.

What stove do you use when you are on these trips?

[@riderinsanjose337]

"M B" If I recall correctly. Stands for Martha Beckett. She was a ballerina and artist from New York. I had quite the conversation with her many years ago. The faces along the balcony are the likenesses of the people in the area that helped her restore the Opera House. There are paintings that she did on the inside of the hotel that are incredibly three-dimensional. I was extremely fortunate not only to photograph the works of, but to meet and converse with this incredible woman. Rest In Peace Martha.

I've started carrying fresh fruits and vegetables because they don't need refrigeration. And there is something primal about that. It makes it easier to disconnect.

[@frfrpr]

WOW! Kinda speechless here. Thanks for the incredible video.

[@SterlingNoren]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TheRaceEdition]

Thank you for sharing your adventures with us and for inspiring us. Love your content.. on your channel as well as on the BDRs.. thank you for all your contribution to the many different communities that you touch.. you da man!

Wow, thanks!

[@SteveH98264]

As always, fantastic video!

[@cabanamike274]

Sterling you truly are a master of your craft. Fantastic video. Looking forward to the next one Safe travels my friend

[@beachsketch3531]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@JCrozier1]

As always, so glad to be on this trip with you. You can definitely tell the level of skills you've picked up over the years both with the filmmaking and motorcycle trips.

[@jdflhr]

Outstanding video quality and content

[@carlpop2324]

I have a heavy touring bike and would never try to tackle those dirt roads. I would never see that scenery unless someone like Sterling made the trip, filmed it, and published it. This series, like so much of Sterling's work, is phenomenal. And let's also recognize that it takes a combination of skill and courage to make a trip into these remote areas alone. I salute Mr. Noren!

[@SterlingNoren]

Thank you Carl!

[@DiegoAstorga]

Beatifully executed filming, editing, image composition, grading... and a long etc‼️‼️

[@anturadventure3642]

Definitely another great video! Can't wait for the next one. Stay safe and enjoy the ride.

[@gsfinatic]

I so much envy your life. Keep riding safe.

[@vikingmcklub7393]

[@aBluegrassPicker]

Outstanding editing! great video.

[@swiftcaution5170]

Always good stuff Mr S.. thanks 👍🏻

[@ronalvey103]

Fantastic Sterling. Looking forward to watching the next video.

[@BriKinsella]

Another cracking video put together so well, thank you! 👍🏼

[@zekester63]

This episode was great. It highlights a common scenario I too experience, where the initial excitement/adrenaline of the trip has faded somewhat, and the reality of being on the road with a very different routine, sets in. It takes a few days to get into a groove, but once there, it's such a rewarding experience. Thank you for braving the elements and showing us a place many will never experience without the comforts of an air conditioned vehicle. Such a unique and beautiful place!

[@brucegerken1063]

Great video thank you very well done thanks for taking us along cheers to ya.

[@SterlingNoren]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@jeraldheinrich3589]

[@LutziferVideographer]

[@ibadi45]

I enjoyed 100 % this episode. The scenery was awesome!

[@johnsikes5404]

Many ol western movies filmed @ Alabama Hills. Museum of western film history in Lone Pine. Your channel has become my favorite follow.

[@cjctucson7683]

Great stuff as always. Glad you got in some drone shots before you reached the park.

[@gamerwarzone9993]

words are small to describe your work epic video

[@2weelfvr]

Excellent series! Thanks for taking me along on your motorcycle trip! This gives me something to watch and feel like I'm riding across the country while I'm really stuck at home during the winter months. Thank you!

[@lumberjaxe8910]

Thanks for sharing, great scenery and video footage, seems like a peacefull life.

[@joshmorrisofficial]

This channel has always been the best, most cinematic motorcycle travel channel on the internet. Thanks for putting in all the work to keep us viewers entertained! Would love if you started a paid version with LONGER versions of these videos!

[@greatfallskam]

Wonderful footage. Inspires me to stop and setup my own GoPro / phone to take more interesting shots. Thanks. Kam

[@jonlongmire]

Great episode. This is the best ADV Moto channel currently on KZbin. Thank you

[@gordonhan2158]

I’m loving this series! Beautiful scenery, what a great ride you’re having!

[@Liberty4Ever]

Every one of these gorgeous videos is such a treat. I want to watch them as soon as I see them but I try to wait until the end of my day so I can relax and enjoy the video with no interruptions, immersed in the journey with my full attention to every detail. Thank you for this inspirational series.

[@lifesjourneyat50]

The story telling and the way you put it together is second to none….excellent as always Sterling..we are on this journey with you!!!

[@verbalwidget0919]

Death Valley is one of my favorite places on earth. The vastness, and beauty really put life in perspective. It's a motorcyclist paradise where you can get away and loose the grasp of time for a bit. Beautiful video Sterling. Thank you.

[@RexFields]

Excellent episode, Sterling. It is very relaxing to watch and listen as you travel and wrap up the day of adventure. Thanks for taking us along!

[@Avensur]

Awesome 👍😎 as always my friend. I think the same, when solo trip, no need to be in a hurry, take your time to enjoy more the resting place and hit the road looking for that particular special place.

[@SterlingNoren]

Thanks 👍

[@Ramenscooter]

I met a German fellow on a rGS100 airhead in Saline Valley, who’d accessed Saline via Steel Pass in Eureka valley. He said he almost died trying to get over that pass. He was in the process of riding that air head around the world. Love your content!

[@hrmacdonald4471]

Really enjoying this series...I always learn something from every video...thanks for sharing & stay safe!

[@4940markhutchins]

Your videos are once again breathtaking. In fact yours and Craig Ripley’s motorcycle adventures have become my Sunday morning treat.

[@SterlingNoren]

Cool, thanks for the recommendation I will check that out.

[@gordonhenderson1708]

Beautiful!

[@popscorrigan]

You checked off several of my bucket list sites in this video! Really appreciate your videos and your sharing of your knowledge and experience. Will be living vicariously through you until I get out there myself. Many thanks.

[@mattdelcomyn8012]

Particularly beautiful filming in this one! Hot springs and Alabama Hills!! Oh my!!

[@chadbjerken7907]

Thanks for the ride Sterling. Hope to catch up with you sometime.

[@Highlandwolf2sas]

Loved this one 👌.....Am currently planning another few tours both north of Scotland and Europe ....Watching your “Adventures” gives such inspiration to get out there ! Thanks for sharing your own Adventure .....🥰🥃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@darrellkinkade9205]

Wow, some people simply know how to live! "Awesome' doesn't begin to explain this video. I have a Death Valley trip planned in early April from Tucson... THX!

[@gusscott1422]

I’m really digging the excellent desert footage as well as the break down of what camping gear you’re using and what’s for dinner.

[@scottfhscottfh]

Great video! I really like that you go to some obscure and remote locations. You are an inspiration, thank you.

[@scudrunneradv3269]

Awesome!!! Not much more to say

[@billstoermer8668]

You make the set up of cameras and equipment seem so easy and seamless…. We all know it is hugely time consuming! Thank you!

[@vernsampson3584]

Really enjoying this series! Thanks for posting. It's March 1 up here on the west coast of BC & the wx has been wet, slushy, snow = miserable. That sunset glow in the Alabama Hills looks pretty good to me! Cheers

[@hoagiesherlin7732]

Awesome video man

[@wbochonko6574]

Another amazing episode. Keep them coming Sterling! Thanks.

[@anitafisch7558]

What to say that hasn't been. A lot of us travel through you. Thanks as always

[@AT2021Rocker]

Loving this series so far!

[@PSBEadventures]

Fantastic one here man. I'm so glad you did this series here! Finally something decent to watch!! A+ on these man.

[@billmartin3198]

You make it look easy, Sterling but I know darn well it’s not. Thx for all your hard work, very much appreciated!

[@SterlingNoren]

My pleasure!

[@عبداللهالشهري-ك6ص7ي]

The photography is amazing and beautiful from all directions and from the top with the motorcycle🤙🤙✨️

[@jamesgaffney7591]

Wow. Insane B roll, drone and editing. What a giant commitment while riding that trip. Thank you for sharing your journey.

[@SterlingNoren]

My pleasure!

[@bonfa76]

[@barryyoung]

Brilliant cinematography and great series = you have a real talent !!

[@MotoDude1967]

Great series, beautiful scenery, can't wait for the next one!

[@pe5208]

The camera on the back together with the sound of the motorcycle in the twisties -- can't get any closer to actually being there ☺️👍

[@adrianc1577]

STERLING UR BEST . Greetings from Belize🇧🇿🇧🇿

[@marcoluoma3770]

Thanks for bringing us along on this trip. As others have opined, the videography is exemplary. Thanks again.

[@SterlingNoren]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@lawrencemeadows6093]

Love the Death Valley/Lone Pine/Alabama Hills/Owen's Valley area. Spend 3-4 weeks a year there, camping and riding. Really like your content.

[@KMaC-wt9lr]

Excellent work capturing and sharing your travels and vistas, thanks. 👍

[@philipbarrett3151]

Enjoying these immensely. Love that you take the time to eat healthy, so many expedition riders seem to exist on freeze dried camping meals at best & the worst of grocery store processed & canned foods at worst!

[@rodolfodolce5299]

Great!!!

[@samhill3496]

Beautiful ride. One with the world. Done it many times. Some spectacular views with the changing light. One time in Death Valley it came a flood. The flowers came up and bloomed literally before my eyes. Hard to believe but a little water in the desert goes a long way. The valley leading to Lone Pine and on up to Bishop is a very beautiful trip. Then the lava fields. Home of Hop-a-Long Cassidy and Joe Kidd.

[@gunn00r]

Those wide landscape shots are just breathtaking, well done!

[@3goldfinger]

Once again, amazing drone footage. We have many places like that here in Australia, will go there soon.

[@tollycrump4317]

Sterling shows a peeler, then proceeds to peel a cucumber with a knife...lol. Really enjoying this series, the shot of the sun behind the Sierra mountains was just beautiful, had to pause it for a moment. I really hope to see that view in person one day. You find some really nice camp sites. I would love to see this series edited into a full length film at the end. I'd gladly watch it all over again. Until next week.

[@SterlingNoren]

I actually forgot about the peeler. I totally should have used that!

[@mr.shannon6137]

Absolutely beautiful ride, thanks for taking the time to share.

[@vcheng552000]

You is livin' my dream life man! :) Thank you so much for such wonderful content. I hope to attend the rally in Bisbee for 2024 if I can get the dates at six months prior. Please keep that in mind. Thanks.

[@markust8904]

That was a very enjoyable, complete, episode Sterling, Fantastic! little snippets of info that keeps your interest and wanting more but you move on to another snippet of info. Excellent storytelling and quick edits. thanks for that.

[@salpairadice]

[@SterlingNoren]

Good question! On a crevice in the rocks I think.

[@wildae.]

i love your videos because how to show old buildings and structures

[@paulherron4289]

As California Adv rider I had little interest in Death Valley. Then I saw a video of Titus canyon it ends in Death Valley I have now been back to Death Valley many times it’s so much more than you would expect. You did it justice thank you for taking me back with you!

[@BikesCameraAdventure]

I enjoyed the kitchen tour! Man, you make some great looking food out there! I’m taking notes…lol.

[@lagrange-munuzerezh9245]

Hi Sterling, when you use your Opinel, turn the "virolbloc" when it's open: it's a safety lock, and made for!😉

[@Asdfghjkl1234]

Amigo Amazing amazing. Excellent clear videos always. Greetings and respect to all from BC Mexico 🇲🇽

[@sanjay777000]

Iam watching your videos from India near Himalayas....I really love your vlogs.

[@DiscoveryMotoADV]

Oh man. Beautiful video. One of the best ones yet. Curious if you ran into any trouble finding the campsite in Alabama Hills. I have heard that there are a lot of new restrictions on camping in that area.
