My father fell in love with Sagauche during our first road trip down from Denver to New Mexico. That night he said he couldn't sleep because his mind kept seeing the trip. Still my favorite road.

[@majaldinho]

I congratulate you. Amazing job. Hugs from Saoi Paulo, Brazil.

A nice piece of highway I always enjoy when I'm moving from the South San Juans to the Collegiates. Will be making this drive again soon. And looking forward to another relaxing meal at Salida's Boathouse Cantina on the Ark.

I like all of your Colorado videos. Your videos show it off nicely!

[@InterstateKyle]

Thank you Steve!

[@mikevollmer3579]

Another great video. Thanks Kyle

[@InterstateKyle]

Thank you Mike!

I've always enjoyed driving northbound over Poncha pass a little more than going south. Either way, it's always a pleasent ride. Cool that you caught a Dustnado at 5:40!

[@InterstateKyle]

I didn’t even notice that until you pointed it out! Wow, lol. Thanks for watching Dan!

[@Yormsane]

Love this corner of Colorado, well away from the usual tourist areas. Spectacular scenery, quiet roads, and lots of great little towns to explore en route. Gotta get myself out here again soon!

[@InterstateKyle]

I enjoy the places that don’t get the crowds. More solitude that way.

Sangre de Cristo... sounds like an exclamation I should be using in daily life

[@InterstateKyle]

God is good.

[@donavanjohnson409]

Looks like a nice ride along us highway 285 and CO-17

[@InterstateKyle]

It really is!

[@hermesbandofficial8551]

I drove south on this exact stretch fairly recently and Ive always loved this road, its very scenic and nice to drive on

[@InterstateKyle]

I agree! It’s hard to beat any road in the Rocky Mountains!

Kyle! You need to do the High and Low Road to Taos soon! Would love to see it from your lense

[@InterstateKyle]

I really wanna see Taos myself one day!

[@eljeffe8806]

Another road in that area to drive is up NM-4 (Jemez Canyon) from US 550 to Los Alamos. In the later part of the afternoon the sun will be low at your back and light up colors in the rocks that are different than in the middle of the day. BTW, I prefer the high road to Taos, more alpine looking.

[@texasrefugee7888]

So this is the road Morphew traveled to Moffat. It's breathtakingly beautiful 😍. She was under the stars near a huge wildlife refuge Sangre de Chisto mountains ⛰️ 🏞⛰️✝️
