Robert I have to thank you for this video tonight. It is 28 Years today since our four and a half year old daughter passed away and I have spent a peaceful evening watching your video and thinking of her. Tony5006.

[@Anthrit]

Welcome to my home state. Great Falls was our wedding anniversary. Helena was where we loved to see the sleeping giant mountain and surprised you never showed. Three Forks is where my brother died in a car accident. Billings is where grandparents lived and spent many summer trips. We Ski every winter at Big Sky. Surprised you did not find the gem next to my parents place near Whitehall called the Lewis and Clark caverns. Butte was my childhood home and we lived there for 30 years before moving to Arizona. Seeing this video made me homesick.

[@sharonatl]

Wow what a sunset snd rainbow ! glorious! Thank you Lord for showing us your glory!

[@dirtyerneye]

I was born in Great Falls, Montana. I love it here. I appreciate you very much for doing such an excellent job, showing the world where I live Giant springs is one of the most beautiful spots in the world. All the work you put into this video was greatly appreciated. I love Montana I will die here. Thank you again.

[@danielc.2042]

Every time I visit Montana I never want to go home.

[@sanjuancapo2862]

Robert you are the "Confluence King" of the Missouri river

[@digitaldave3517]

I’m looking forward to the conclusion of your Lewis and Clark series. I am learning so much about that expedition thanks to your series! Thank you!

[@FoolishPrankster]

You Love your sunsets . A lover of sunsets is called an 'opacarophile'. 'opacare' which is Latin for dusk or sunset, and 'phile' which is Greek for love. 🥰

[@mpower6004]

No place in the USA can so much natural beauty be seen like in the West , period . Keep going Road Nomad and show us the way .

[@brandonbarragree]

A beautiful part of the country that is too often ignored.

[@annetteestilow4594]

Those sunset clouds are called mammatus clouds. I’ve only seen them once before after a storm at the Grand Canyon. Great video Robert, as always!

[@porportstv2710]

Incredible Montana! Enjoyed watching your Lewis and Clark adventures.. thank you for sharing Robert.. From the Philippines 👍🏻

[@LonnasTravels]

I'm really learning a lot about the Lewis and Clark expedition by watching your videos. Thanks for the trip.

[@auroranite]

This will be a big view episode Robert. Just Magnificent show.

[@kalednjjar5614]

We get the taste of life from your episodes Robert. Thanks.

[@Dis4Ever-ME]

George our sunset, great job as usual Robert! That double rainbow was fantastic.

[@JanineNaquin]

I came across your channel by accident. What a pleasure it was to find! I’ve never been so far north and thoroughly enjoyed your adventure. You did an amazing job. I have now subscribed and looking forward to seeing more of your travels. God bless you!!

[@cindyg8695]

Beautiful pictures of the Montana sunset. Loved the rainbow shots too!! Definitely God’s beauty!!

[@joycemosakowski3648]

The sunset and rainbow, the waterfalls, the land and mountains , the boat ride! Oh my!! Your the Best Robert!!!

[@mompreneurlife]

❤We were thoroughly surprised at how absolutely beautiful Montana is. Big sky indeed. Thanks for sharing your adventure there. Looking forward for more. ❤

[@janemartin1666]

Robert is the best...this summer has been one of your best...

[@joyce46jul]

Yes I agree we were glued to the screen. We’ve been there but your video is just marvelous. Keep,up,the great work. Love it.

[@elmandalorian6671]

This was by far the best video 📹 we've seen...the first time we see a complete rainbow 🌈, the river cruise was impressive, Campground facility with the grill and wood for campfire perfect, the falls, impressive sunset and the Lewis and Clark history details...not mentioning the quality of the video shots with the appropriate background music...you definitely nailed this one...

[@louise3993]

Now that’s what I call a beautiful sunset. Complete with a double rainbow 🌈

[@neidaheusinkvelt1062]

Loved the river cruise and all the scenery in Montana! You should consider renting a houseboat in Ontario Canada and taking the Rideau Canal through the small towns and locks down from Ottawa area into Kingston. Great small town museums, beautiful scenery, and great local pubs.

[@goldtopazasylum]

what beautiful scenery, love the driving to the west tune 🙂

[@GoldenAnniversaryAdventure]

Your Lewis & Clark Trail Journey was absolutely excellent. You showed many points of interest that we have missed on our trips out west. Thanks for sharing.

[@marcindomik8975]

Awesome! The whole Lewis&Clark series is brilliant!

[@sandym4875]

Beautiful and educational! Fantastic narration and video! We've added Montana to our travel list. Thanks so much for sharing this gorgeous area!

[@akgobears]

Cant wait to see you do the Oregon Coast and where you go....We do it often traveling from the bay area to Portland. We then head west to Tillamook and the coast followed by heading down the coast to Crescent City visiting relatives in all three areas...Lots of things to do and see on the Oregon coast...Get the crab sandwich at the Old Oregon Smokehouse in Rockaway beach, you wont be sorry.....Travel safe , be well

[@TexasPegP]

Robert, this video just warms my heart & eyes to see!!!❤❤❤ you have an incredibly blessed life to be able to do this and to top that what you tease that is coming next is even more what I love to see and I can’t wait to watch!! Traveling to the West is always soooooo good!!! Happy & safe travels to you and Ily and God Bless you for bringing this to KZbin for all to see our Glorious USA!😊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@mreppen1]

I’ve been to Montana 3 times. My favorite state. Robert, your next Travel plans should be an RV drive across Canada, my native land. West to East.

[@cynthiaweber8486]

I absolutely love Montana. It is a beautiful state. And the scenery changes so much. Want to go back, again. Thank you for this video. Take care, out there.

[@anissamorgan2132]

High five 🖐🏼 Robert. This was an EXTRAORDINARY video. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us.

[@cheriecrain6914]

Very fun video. My hubby and I watched this most anticipated video saying things like, " Yep, yep. Oh yeah. Been there. Oh remember that is where I fly fished. So beautiful. " And other special thoughts (where is the next bathroom- NO TREES!) So enjoyed seeing again the state where we lived for six years (Helena 2014-2020). We had the opportunity to travel most of Montana. Thanks for your informative videos. Hi to Illy.

[@Matthew-lx9ne]

Those mammatus clouds are quite the sight in that sunset lighting

[@justinebuckleywright1302]

Thank you Robert for a beautiful video. 60 years ago we lived in Montana for 2 years while my husband was in the Air Force.

[@CarmenLopez-ti4iv]

Robert , Thank you for you beautiful work taking your time to explain to us, your fans, in such a delightful way this journey. After 25 years living in Florida( your home state ) and now in Texas I understand perfectly how beautiful is this country not matter if no beaches or palms are around. Please continue making all of us travel through your eyes and experiences.

[@dramaqueen3306]

Robert, you are a true adventurer. I love it that even though you have been traveling and seeing new places and things for years now, you are still so enthusiastic about your travels. Happy Holidays to both you and your wife.

[@mikenbevtrips]

Excellent capture of all that nature offers on this video , loved it!!

[@colleenr2563]

I luv watching all your shows makes me want to travel around the US.. If I had the chance to drive, I'd Rv all over the USA 😊

[@marianmarek7299]

Had to watch twice!! I’m from Montana and couldn’t get enough of the beautiful scenery. Montana’s motto use to be Land of the Shining Mountains. But, Big Sky is appropriate too! ❤

[@johne.stinson9759]

Doing an overview of your travels at the beginning of the episode is very helpful and informative. Good thing to include and much appreciated!!

[@ChesterABaker]

Robert I always look forward to your wonderful videos. They are educational and entertaining. I have been following you for many many years and I am very satisfied.

[@LGessner]

Glued to the screen! Mu husband and I have traveled all but 5 states - all located in the northwest, so, of course, we were captivated by your video - and every week you seem to make it better and better.! Thank you for the dialogue, filming, great editing, perspective ands historical highlights for an area we have put back on our radar, so we can complete our "travel every state" goal.

[@dennisdaly1957]

Incredible series of trips I loved them all. THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@BleezyChuckles]

You’re right about the ten lifetimes but we appreciate all that you share. Thank you!

[@daveholte7658]

Enjoying your MT adventure Going the Poplar MT the wandering many dogs called Res Dogs Next time thru just a mile down from your campground at Ft Peck Lake the Marina Bar Grill sell IPAs And when going through Glasgow the Busted Knuckle Brewery offers your favorite IPAs and is a great neat old radiator shop setting. Lots of fun Safe travels in the Big Sky State

[@exploringidaho]

Great video. Looking forward in seeing you explore more of Idaho as well in the future. Montana is stunning

[@arleneg1271]

Loved this longer video, Robert. Those pink/red clouds at sunset were amazing. Thanks for taking us along.

[@nonadeguzman8555]

The river cruise was so nice! It’s full of awesome views! Thanks for your video in Montana.

[@justinebuckleywright1302]

Thank you, Robert for taking me along on your journey To Alaska!!😊

[@kevinbentley8298]

I wondered how they knew when they reached a confluence which was the main river. Thanks for clarifying that they had to travel up each sometimes to find out. Good stuff, Robert. Appreciate your videos and what you add to them with your commentary.

[@TimMcCurry-ue9kr]

That rainbow in the Montana campground was beautiful. It tells me that God was with you on your journey.

[@chrislebleu6821]

Amazing episode Robert!! Montana looks like such a beautiful state! I love moderately hilly/mountainous areas so that episode was a true delight! That double rainbow was mesmerizing! Thank you so much for all your travelling videos!!

[@miriammigliacci9427]

Robert, as always you are so uplifting. God made us a beautiful country and I thank you for showing it so well! Your music is so original and peppy!!

[@mlwtennessee322]

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this!

[@judystreich7333]

Amazing video,loved it. Have been in some of the areas visited today and never tire of that part of the country. Thanks.

[@lelandpeck4585]

Incredible journey and stunning photography, Robert. Thanks so much.

[@captainblacktoe1328]

I lived in the Three Forks area (Manhattan MT.) for many years and canoed all the rivers in the area many, many times. Thanks for the return visit.

[@sammychicken3457]

Stunning scenery Robert. I'm glad you showed us both the museums & sign posts discussing the history of Lewis & Clarke. I'm facinated with both America & appreciate it's history. For us here in Australia, we thank you for taking is on your journey across America. Kind regards to both yourself & your lovely wife, from Adelaide, South Australia.

[@kathykenyon2079]

I am really loving the long episodes. You had a busy summer to say the least! I bet you could design an enclosed pontoon boat - even/ boat hybrid! 😎🌟

[@bernieromero9366]

Robert, thank you again far another great video, kudos to you, your wife your team and let us not forget Kia and Colorado, gracias..Bernabe

[@joelethridge3020]

At 57 seconds I'm buckling up for a tour of my back yard. Everything I'm about to see is familiar to me. It's my homeland. Back to the video...

[@joycelebaron2582]

Loving your trip following the Lewis & Clark expedition. I'd love to do it myself and have been flagging some of your stops on my map. PS: At Ryan Dam, I could have sworn I saw a big sign saying "No Pets". The couple with the dog ahead of you: "Signs mean nothing to us!"

[@chriskabout4556]

Thank you for this extensive video. It was a pleasant way of spending my Sunday. And I learned a lot about the geography of the USA since I didn't have a clue, the Missouri River starts in Montana.

[@jacquelinejackson4067]

Fantastic, beautifully narrated and photograph. Congratulation on an amazing journey/adventure. Thank you for sharing it with us. You are also fantastic.

[@janiceevans]

Considering when you posted this I know it wasn't when you recorded it. Just to let you know, we had a major flood rip through that area the past TWO years. We had no control. Yes... I was born and raised here and I live at the base of the Rocky mountains ☺️

[@Redeemed7777]

You did a wonderful job of exploring Montana reminding us why we love it here!

[@joelethridge3020]

At 49 minutes or so you're on my late dad's mail route. He delivered mail there for 24 years then was retired for 24 years. Welcome to my back yard. I hope you enjoy your experience.

[@antiaacosta3890]

Ese viajé para mí será un memorial, fuimos por tierra desde New York, lo vivimos a plenitud.un abrazo desde el Caribe

[@Twobarpsi]

Great Falls looked like so much fun!!

[@TimMcCurry-ue9kr]

Can you imagine the man power it took to portage their boats out and around all the obstacles in the river like the Great Falls? And, this wasn’t the only obstacle or the first time! These men were physically fit!

[@farmergirljo]

Bravo! I haven’t been able to bear watching RV travel videos since losing my best friend and husband sixteen months ago. Today I watched your Montana video and remembered how much you inspired us to explore and RV. I plan a trip to West Bend, Iowa this summer to see the Shrine. I probably never would have heard of it if not for you. You amaze me in how much you love this country. Despite not being a citizen from birth, you take more pride in America then anyone. Your shows are so full of fascinating history and glorious photography. Thank you. Robert. God bless!

[@almamorales4158]

Montana is a beautiful and diverse state.I have never seen clouds like those.Much well-documented history was received with is video. Congrats. Great job...... Love ....MOM

[@vintagechick]

The orange sky and clouds post storm brought back great memories of Denver and Sioux Falls …. Two places I’ve lived in the past with magnificent skies

[@RaimoLehtinen]

Great video 🙂👍 This has taken some editing work..I believe🙂

[@Kenlinda]

What a great video I loved it thank God we can watch it over again thanks Robert for such a great Video.

[@vanallen9453]

...as a history teacher born in England ..and having lived in many places.. from NYC to Calif....and having traveled many thousands of miles back and forth across America.. in my old Dodge Camper Van..some of my best memories..are from our still- unforgettable trip .. way out there.. and high up.. to the amazing historic Glacier Park in Montana..thanks for sharing all of your always.. well-done.. interesting.. and very informative videos..

[@johne.stinson9759]

thanks for sharing your wonderful adventures with us...!!

[@bonniericica6895]

Amazing rainbow as well as the country!

[@tngamble01]

Spectacular sunset!

[@joelethridge3020]

At 50 minutes you're about to cross a bridge that when I was a little kid my big brother told me that he built it with his erecter set. He said, " Don't you remember? You handed me the nuts and bolts." He passed away over 57 years ago three days before my 7th birthday less than three months before his 14th. I remember every time I cross that bridge. After you cross you'll see a brick house on the right. The mason who built and owned it also made the fireplace in our cabin. He was a friend of my dad. Maybe his son by the same name owns it. Their last name is also a country...

[@russell1265]

Another good trip thank you Robert for taking me along with you from Phoenix Arizona 😎

[@beautifulplacesinamerica7792]

you put a lot of homework into lewis and clark. well done thank you

[@howardstein5456]

Thanks Robert. In a time when there is so much trash out there, it is so refreshing to find your quality videos. Thanks for your masterful works. All the best.

[@DreamCather147]

I am always how they paved roads in the middle of nowhere !

[@janiceevans]

Welcome to Montana 🤗🥰. Now you know why I can't leave Montana... We have a saying here.... If you don't like the weather give it a minute... It will change.

[@joycelebaron2582]

We had that same saying where I grew up in New England! :)

[@janiceevans]

@@joycelebaron2582 ❤️

[@themartinman307]

Robert, i love your edm songs. In fact I enjoy all of your music but especially when you incorporate the electronic stuff. That one that’s playing at 6:35 is so cool

[@kathyhepler382]

Thank you for sharing. BEAUTIFUL video 📸📸. Safe travels!!!!

[@yawndave]

On the road in Big Sky country--what a great episode! (Speaking of, did you get a chance to sample Big Sky Brewery's IPA with the pronghorn on the label?) That sunset and those clouds...just fantastic! I know what you mean about being "museum'd out", there are days when you just aren't up for another display of "desiccated animals" and stuff you've seen before. On the other hand I've discovered that almost every museum (especially the ones in small towns) has a "hidden gem" that makes a visit worthwhile. The mermaids at the Sip-N-Dip look like they'd be right at home at Weeki Wachee. Until the next time, happy trails!

[@DancingTreeGifts]

Raised in the Bitterroot Valley Montana, your (mis) pronunciation of Sacagawea this entire series is killing me! 😆

[@mirtapallero8517]

Hermoso todo. Y lo importante son las obras. En un país extenso con tantos habitantes de diversas etnias para conocer la historia abundan museos!!! Museos! Fascinada

[@kimroe9282]

Enjoying these videos of your journey.

[@debbiewerner7124]

WOW 🤩 How Awesome was that!!!! No words to describe that. And the sunset. WOW Again. ❤

[@vicentamartinez]

Amazing country; amazing video!

[@mikeandloria]

Wow, most unusual sunset I have ever seen!

[@fredogden936]

Bravo!!

[@JohnEtravels]

Montana is Big Sky Country for sure. I loved loving in Helena & getting the opportunity experience a good portion of the State! Great Videos & I look forward to watching more.

[@loneapple440]

Great heart warming and calmness feeling created by you, your voice with great background music choices.
