We drove 9,134 miles and flew 3,500 miles to create this video.
In this video we show the most Scenic Highways in the Western United States. We show scenic road trips in Colorado, Idaho, Oregan, Arizona, Utah, and California. We use drone footage as well as using a GoPro mounted on a vehicle to show you actual footage of these scenic roads.
Although we rate the Pacific Coast Highway pretty high, it is not the number 1 scenic highway on our list.
We show The Redwood Highway in Northern California, The Million Dollar Highway in Colorado. Interstate 70, an engineering marvel in Colorado. We shot state highways that follow the Arkansas River in Colorado, the Payette River in Idaho, the Columbia River in Oregon & Washington. We also drive through the colorful deserts of Monument Valley and the red rocks of Sedona. We shot 3 highways that ride along the Pacific Ocean.

Last time I was on the Bear Tooth Pass highway. they were repaving it. 10" different height between lanes, my side still leaking oil, and cars right on my ass wanting me to scrape floorboards getting around the turns in a construction zone. To add to that...my SD card was full before I ever entered that stretch so I got screwed out of good video too. It's always something on a ride which is why I call it adventures in motorcycling, not finely planned, well executed rides.

So true. On one of our trips we ended up in a small town in rural Utah and stopped at a wonderful museum. It was dusty, cramped and absolutely fantastic. The owner spend the afternoon with us showing us dinosaur prints, old pictures and we enjoyed a discussion that unfolded before our eyes a view of a life lived well. A very fascinating man. Best half a day we ever had while being lost! Not one single customer ventured in the museum except my husband and I. So much is lost if you don't get off the well traveled road.

Easy to miss is state route 299 from Redding to Arcata. Varied topography with old Shasta town remnants, the gem of Weaverville, national forest, tribal lands ti the north and windswept fresh coastal air in Arcata as a rewarding end. Keep in mind that summer Temps are regularly 50 degrees cooler at ocean from the 5 in Redding.

You missed out on WA Highway 20, crossing Ross and Diablo lakes and the North Cascades National Park. Of course, due to it's mile-plus elevation and near-Canada latitude, it's only open four-to-five months a year. Far more spectacular than the Columbia, but it's generally an all-day commitment to make the loop around Lake Chelan and back on US Highway 2 over Stevens Pass. Still a great list though.

I have not driven all the roads on your list, though I have some of them. It's a good list, but for my money Utah 12 from Escalante to Torrey is number 1.

I agree that the Oregon Coast Highway should be number one, but by way of correction, there are no redwoods along any part of the Oregon coast. They barely exist many miles inland in a remote part of southwestern Oregon, but are never visible anywhere close to the coast. I would have liked to have you spend a minute or two talking about the many spectacular waterfalls (not just Multnomah Falls) in the Columbia River Gorge on the Oregon side. It is most what it is known for.

Wait! What?! No mention of Scenic Byway 12 in Utah? An “All-American Road”. Red Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Escalante Grand Staircase, Hogsback, Calf Creek Trail & Falls, White Slickrock, etc, etc. I have no idea why this would not have been included. 🤔

Agree, and also agree that there are many others to recommend, but Sc Biway 12 in Utah has to be among the very best. I once saw a world best 10, and this was no 2 (after Milford Sound in NZ), no 2 in the world and it doesn't make your list!
