No falling asleep on that road. Thanks Russ, beautiful.

[@DomainRES]

Highway 12 is my favorite road in the USA. Glad you had a chance to enjoy it.

[@julieboyce6614]

You said you were headed to Colorado be sure when you get to Fruita to go to the Colorado national Monument and It will bring you down into Grand Junction it is beautiful and worth the trip.

[@kurtporter1323]

Good job Rusty ! I told you hwy 12 was Gods Country. Live free no covid !!

[@loop1800mickey]

WoW ❗️One of my favorite drives in 73 years of exploring we have some red sandie dust from this drive and the famous Escalante silver mine is near . After a HOT 🥵 day in Flagler Beach Fl. this made my evening. THANK YOU Russ ‼️

[@johndouglas7787]

At 21:10 this is the route my Uncle and I took from Bryce Canyon to Capitol Reef in the summer of 1969. At the time this road was a 1 lane dirt road with very few wide spots for 2 vehicles to pass. Not many on this road back then and I can't remember even passing 1 car. On the right was a steep drop off with trees so dense you could hardly see through them. To the left was dense forest going practically straight up. To top it off it was pouring rain. We were in a standard Chevy station wagon. Now that I think about how dangerous that road was I now understand why my Uncle was sweating bullets. Memorable trip which included listening to the Apollo Moon landing on the radio while driving east through Colorado.

[@joemanpjg]

you rode12 at its best...i could see sweating bullets most of the way then... Going thru Boulder mountain was a boring long drive up and down and a lot of riding the brakes...

[@joycebarnett5813]

That highway 12 is truly amazing. That was a wonderful trip. Thanks for taking me along for the ride. Stay safe and happy adventuring

[@Robin-bf2ej]

Hi Russ my ears are popping! Wow what a cool ride we are taking today! Love it!!!!

[@arkansastraveler7698]

That's my favorite part is where it drops off on both sides, been several years since we drove it, as pretty as ever.

[@alrichardson7027]

Ohhh yeahhh! I was really hopping you would fly the drone on the Hogback section. They designated scenic 12 as an All American Highway for a reason, so SPECTACULAR! Capital Reef is next, and then you have got to check out Hollow Mountain in Hanksville. It's a convenience store build into a huge rock. Great video😊!

[@julies2814]

You are truly blessed to be able to travel the nation in your RV to appreciate the true beauty of this Nation, this planet. ❤💫🙏🕊🙏💫❤

91 degrees in Portland today, but my box fan keeps me cool, and the view out your windshield is real nice!

[@ICU8-12]

Are you near the riots in Portland?

[@KindCreature1]

@@ICU8-12 No, those are in downtown Portland, and I am a safe 15 miles away.

[@michaela.chmieloski3196]

It was like being on a rollercoaster, Russ, with the climbs and dips, and curves and twists. Neat to finally see some of the open-range inhabitants that wayside signage has warned about over the past few videos. Notice how Boulder Mountain's propensity for knocking moisture out of the sky took the terrain's foliage from waist-high scrub brush to full-blown forest? I could easily spend a year exploring every inch of the State of Utah...followed by Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada. A truly gorgeous part of the country, thanks for bringing it to us, Russ.

[@johncartlidge9292]

Back in 2010 had a few nights in a tent at Calf Creek one of the best ever times in the States. Helped a guy who had a problem on way back to tent at lower Calf Creek Falls , hope he got home safe and is well. Would love to come back to this area but with the cost of flights etc from England think this is just a dream not sure if we could cope in a tent now 14 years older. Thanks Russ for bringing back the fantastic memories for us.

[@annettehambler-pruden6682]

ENJOYED THIS VIDEO. MY HUSBAND, MOTHER, MY SISTER AND I DROVE THIS ROAD ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO. IT WAS CERTAINLY AN INTERESTING DRIVE. LIKED IT BETTER WATCHING SOMEONE ELSE DO THE DRIVING. THANK YOU

[@rosec8622]

WOW - thanks Russ for the Boulder Mountain scenic Hwy 12 drive. What a nice way to spend my Sunday afternoon. Luv the RVerTV Virtual Vacation 2020 Tour 🌺⭐🎶

[@ronstoudt717]

awesome scenery. Thanks Russ for the ride and views.

[@GaryPClark]

In the early nineties on the way back from LA, I took that route off the 15 to the national parks and ended up on scenic 12 and when both sides of the road vanished, my Astro van with 6 kids and a wife all went nuts. That is the biggest road surprise I ever encountered and I have been many places, i could not wait for at least one side of the road to reappear.

[@tangie777uk]

Absolutely stunning,I would give my eye teeth to be over there right now.Thank you so much

[@davidnoll9887]

You my friend are living the life. Stay safe out there.

[@ZahaA]

Scenic HYWY 12 is definitely going into the bucket list. Thanks Russ 🚐. Stay safe !

[@earllutz2663]

Enjoy all of your videos. I hope that you will keep making them.

[@larryolesen1723]

Hello Russ, Very pretty.enjoying the gorgeous view, so pretty. Be safe& take care. Larry & Linda

[@mikesaunders4775]

That has got to be the most amazing stretch of road I have ever seen. Thanks for the ride Russ.

[@richardross3172]

Thanks Russ, every time I said " hey Russ pull over up here", you did! That little M.B. Diesel didn't even breath hard going over Boulder mountain. Cool!

[@MerleGMott]

Wow!!! just keeps getting better.

[@rdebbiejoy5246]

Wow! Another amazing drive! Added Scenic Hwy12 to our bucket list! Thanks Russ! Love your chuckle! 👍👋❤️🇺🇸😎😁

[@gerardbauer4035]

Beautiful ride. Thanks for taking us along. Be well and play safe!

[@tracykuykendall8585]

Awesome views and a great drive, Thanks Russ

[@SunflowerGirlRV]

Hey Russ!!! I miss watching you... I'm finally BACK into the workforce . love watching ALL your videos.. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!!! STAY SAFE🙏🙏😊

[@gusgus2539]

Calf Creek has a short walk to a waterfall. Magical place.

[@dennysisk6260]

Wow man that's so beautiful looks like you could almost reach up and touch the sky

[@robertgullickson8758]

I definitely recommend Colorado Nat’l. Monument on your way through. It’s a loop tour well worth the trip.

[@timhagens340]

That stretch of 12 was amazing! We haven’t been up through there but I believe it’s now on the list!👍 It’s unbelievable how much different the terrain can be in just a few miles! This trip is great!

[@romeoalphafoxtrot9517]

Stunning beauty on this highway! WOW! Thanks for the fantastic ride Russ!

[@garymann5998]

Great video amazing views, never been there but sure would like to, , hey Russ, could you adjust the passenger camera so it looks out the passenger window, just a thought, you are putting out some great videos considering the situation we are all in , we want to go there NOW 😀

[@susanstrickland6774]

You sure got that right, the views really are endless. Amazingly beautiful drive. TY. Be safe. 😊👍

[@corwynhoward269]

Another stunning video! Thank you Russ. Your hard work is greatly appreciated.

[@billmcconnell1837]

UT 12 is one of my favorite treks. You nailed it well my friend.

[@BrendaHaltom-cs6ck]

Wow Russ! That road was so fantastic! The ridge was so long! Never seen anything like it! So beautiful! Thank you so much!🇺🇸😀🚙❤️

[@bonnieerickson8567]

Thank you for taking us on this spectacular drive. I held my breath on many of the curves, and the summit was incredible!!

[@colinwalters1768]

Hi Russ. Wow, What a drive just spectacular views.Every video is awesome.Stay safe.

[@charlesp3764]

Many thanks Russ. Just added highway 12 to my travel list. Safe travels

[@bobevansIW]

Amazing, Scenic Highway 12, what a road!

[@thomascampbell1267]

Another fantastic video. So many post card pictures around every turn.

[@Cali_Jo]

This virtual vacation is fantastic! Utah is absolutely gorgeous and we can’t wait to visit all these places. Thanks Russ!

[@hornet224]

You drove right past it! Next time, stay at Calf Creek Rec. area. It has towering rock walls, a 214 ft. waterfall, blue water pool, creek and picturesque trails. Don't tell anybody.

[@mjbucheeri]

That last pullover would be different story if u were there during Fall. The view out of this world !!

[@shirleyjordan6340]

That was quite a ride. Beautiful! Thanks. Be safe!

[@BigDukeX]

For a few seconds there, I could actually smell the brakes from the rig in front of you Russ..., really good videoing!!!

[@donf3877]

Used to drive truck. It amazed me how many drivers had no clue how to drive in the hills, let alone the mountains. And that included many semi-drivers. Don't downshift to use the compression of the engine... and ride the brakes ALL the way down the hills. And that isn't just out west. I-77 through West Virginia... I-68 through Maryland... and that doesn't come close to the U.S. and State highways (US322 at State College PA the speed limit for trucks down the hill is 25 MPH and a truck can get away from you real quick). I would hate to be in front of one of those rental RV's on a road like that!!! First pull-off I could find I'd let them go past!!! And I run a 34 foot motorhome pulling a Jimmy..............

[@kebbenmilliman4206]

Divine design of colors and shade. Thank the artist and thank you Russ

[@paulgordon9648]

Been a while since I've been through there . Love that Utah Route 12 . Thanks for the video . I took a lot of pictures there going west to east and then the last time east to west . Too cool .

[@beriblonde]

SPECTACULAR! Thanks for this vid. Amazing! We'd sure like to see where you camp!

[@stephanielong6879]

The drive reminds me of my dad’s talk of Omar Brad. Ww2 General made some big impression on me .

[@agnaldos80]

Thank you for the beautiful views and enjoy yourself and stay safe

[@KeithGrowden]

Loving the show. How many people are now doing that short laugh at the end of a sentence haha. My wife now does. haha. Looking forward to next chapter. :)

[@renebarfoot8802]

Great video the scenery was beautiful.

[@joanvancourt9019]

We just did that last summer. Just beautiful! Thanks for the video!

[@msdebagain1]

another great video, just like i'm there. Safe travels

[@stephenbrown3763]

Hey Russ!! The "ROCK" formations "WOW"!! Be safe!!

[@lazybastardgarage]

Nice drive, be safe. Peace

[@cherylbravin3868]

HI thanks yes doing good have a good week love 🤗

[@thatisartnotpffft6368]

Enjoy this big time, but it's hard to watch 'cause I miss it so much. It's great to watch your vid like a passenger instead of being a driver this time!

[@stevied8734]

Amazing views , such diversity of landscapes . It must be a photographer's dream come true. Thanks Uncle Russ.

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

🙋‍♀️Hello Russ! Awesome! Just keeps getting better each day we go. 👍

[@terib3625]

Love your videos. You actually show scenery not just you making dinner & other drama...

[@jameslyons1624]

You make life worth living in lockdown thank you buddy

[@dannyburrell4014]

Last year when we were on Highway 12 there were lots of rental class Cs. Most were Germans. I retired from a German auto manufacturer. I was thinking I drove 2000 miles to hear more German 😳😳. Your drive today brought back some great memories. You are right that should be on everyone’s bucket list to see.i stopped at same pull out with the restrooms. Took a picture of my Tundra with that great background. It was pretty cold and windy when we stopped.

[@Resounded]

Hi Russ ! Very nice video buddy... Enjoying the ride.. Wow ! That is some High Altitude ! .. Stay Happy and Safe !

[@sablerubycocoa]

Beautiful drive!!!

[@bosse641]

Amazing country, Utah.

[@Jennarenn]

Thank you for your videos! You go everywhere I wish I could! You make my bucket list comw true. I hope once I dont need a full time job....I can be like you! A HUGE FAN.....

[@marleneswartz8649]

Rock my soul !!!

[@bruin1989]

Enjoyed the views...thanks! Drive safe!!

[@stuartstuart866]

Too funny, we stayed at Wonderland RV park just two weeks ago. The back is right next to a ranch with cows and horses. Great campground.

[@maricarmenvalladares8795]

Happy to be enjoying your videos from Georgetown, CO. I can't wait to enjoy that magnificent scenario, we will drive I-70 to Moab! July, 28th. Yay! 💙💜💚💝

[@mikethemagnificent6631]

Beautiful !!

[@markmark2080]

That wonderful ridge drive isn't "really" scary, but it really is one of the MOST scenic roads in America, I was hoping you'd fly the drone from the top out over Calf Creek Canyon on the North side. If you ever come through there again, and there's good reason to travel some roads in both directions in that country, be sure to stop and fly the drone. Calf Creek Canyon has a beautiful waterfall in it and is just one of many branch canyons off of the upper Escalante Canyon which ends at Lake Powell.

[@TheDionysius57]

Magnificent....spectacular....thanks Russ!

[@ssharp11]

Enjoying this scenic Highway 12. Thank you for taking us along. Totally enjoy my virtual 2020 vacation. Stay safe. Wishing you a super week. Hugs Susan

[@janohare916]

Oh my gosh, what a drive, I'm speechless! Thanks Russ!

[@ronaldengels1502]

My wife and I traveled about 7 years ago and it was nice to see it again. Thanks for the ride.

[@juliebradford2999]

Thanks for sharing!Awesome !

[@cw1moore1]

Russ that is some beautiful country thanks for the ride

[@LisaMarli]

Wow, that was indeed gorgeous. It's now saved to my Road Trip videos. I have friends in Utah and Colorado and they always say Come Visit. Yeah, I see a Road Trip if this virus ever lets up.

[@LisaMarli]

I have a question, do you find having the filming distracting when you are doing these gorgeous drives, or did you concentrate on the driving and just trust the camera to capture the views? Yeah, I find I can get distracted when the views are gorgeous, and was wondering if a dash cam would help because I wouldn't feel the need to "Catch it All" in my brain camera.

[@markmccord3287]

Reminds me of my 1st trip to Utah We drove too much , and didn't enjoy enough

[@mikegainer8288]

Thanks from Portland Oregon ❤️

[@unclelar819]

Another beautiful drive! Thanks, Russ!!!

[@davidschock9952]

Hwy 12 is open all year and it is even better in the winter. We have driven from Houston twice in the past three years to drive 12 and go to Moab

[@richardcampbell6564]

WOW Thanks Russ for the ride, that drive is incredible!!

[@lauraslanesvanlifetravels]

I had to stop and watch this on my VR Headset! WOW! Reminds me so much of my trip to Zion...what an INCREDIBLE drive! Next time in Utah I have GOT to go on this...I plan on traveling to The Arches eventually and probably Granite Reef or Canyonlands or maybe even Zion again...lol...all of them I'm sure are also amazing!

[@silverqueenvolpe8973]

Wow gorgeous rock formation it’s amazing. Thank you Russ for your awesome videos and travel time and miles you do to share. Hugs

[@_Boregard_Rippy_]

That was cool footage Russ...Thanks...That pass was closed during winter so I have never been though there B4....Thanks Again...KC..!

[@grpcchurchnortonva.8024]

Awesome !!!! Thank you so much for the ride !

[@percymcnabb4746]

beautiful trip

[@toastypassenger5111]

Did the 3 mile hike to Calf Creek Falls yesterday, great views back there Russ. As usual, great KZbin channel you are putting out! We are on your heels this year, your videos are a big help!

[@lvglen]

Good news is I don't have to add this drive to my bucket list... I've already made it! Twice! My brother and I camped at Calf Creek a few years ago and made the hike to the falls. Everyone's talking about how scary the drive is, but remember, you're only doing about 25 mph on that section, not 55!

[@kenmenny4693]

At 18:12 you drove by the Burr Trail Grill, stopped their for lunch in May 2012 great food and atmosphere, didn't look like they were opened.
