[@khunopie9159]

Wow! I can't lie - I started singing along to We Are The World and then my dog joined in! Impressive!

That Mt.Shasta has an almost "Mount Fuji" style to it. Alone and symmetrical.

[@InterstateKyle]

+Trans Canada Phil I agree with you! Before the 1980 eruption however, Mt. St. Helens was known as the "Mt. Fuji" of America.

[@InterstateJD]

Highly enjoyable video Kyle! That scenery is excellent, love how it changes within the three segments of video you chose.

[@InterstateKyle]

+InterstateJD Thank you JD, Mt. Shasta is awesome to see no matter which side you view it on, US-97 is probably the best since there are no other mountains or trees blocking you. Hope you get to this area someday!

[@EdgeXXI]

Mt Shasta is beautiful, thank you for sharing!

[@sallylouise9826]

Lovely video , great choice of music and Mount Shasta looks beautiful 👌

[@nomaderic]

5:32 Jesus that might be the best driving view of Shasta I've seen. Definitely have this road pinned now what a view! Thanks

[@jmvfrva]

dang, that was a beautiful ride. I'd love to see that in person.

[@InterstateKyle]

+JMV FRVA You really should. You only get this view on US-97 southbound tho. All roads facing the mountain have wonderful views of the mountain in their own right.

[@maureenjohnson5151]

Wow!😮

[@gregbrown6430]

I grew up in Klamath Falls, but I never get tired of the drive down to Weed on US 97.

[@scottgeorge4760]

Nice big rig ( pick up truck ) at the begining , I live in Oregon and have ridden this road on my 450 Honda Nighthawk ☺

[@donavanjohnson409]

Awesome video of us highway 97 and mount shasta

[@minns5515]

Rookie truck driver here I drove by today it's beautiful

[@sallylouise9826]

Love this video ' mount Shasta looks beautiful 👌need to save up and visit one day .

[@InterstateKyle]

+Sally Latham Thanks!

[@infinite-inspiration1111]

One day i hope to travel the same freeway, love from australia!

[@upeedinalamb5297]

Lambs enjoyed this video and loved the use of We Are The World. So much beauty and so many types of vegetation to graze on.

[@InterstateKyle]

+Upeedina Lamb Thank you very much! The soil there must be very rich from the volcanic ash from over the years and the vegetation there must be tasty as a result!

[@upeedinalamb5297]

Lambs dont care too much about the science, we just want to eat good vegetation!

[@joelgoode5605]

Greets from NorCal -- Great video, indeed... Thanks !!

[@pabloortizdiaz6449]

great views and trucks!

[@jameswormsley460]

great video there,i wonder if that highway is used as a alternate truck route to i-5.

[@InterstateKyle]

+James Wormsley Trucks use it to deliver goods to Central Oregon cities like Klamath Falls and Bend, to name a few. This road is actually prone to more hazardous weather than I-5, mostly due to its average higher elevations. And thanks buds

[@jameswormsley460]

InterstateKyle ok that's great to know.

[@goyeabuddy]

a great ride, thanks!

[@andrelot]

There is all this talk of the mega-drought in California but things look pretty green over there! Has the area been spared of the worst effects of the multi-year drought?

[@InterstateKyle]

+Andre Lot You can look at the US drought monitor at this link to see how this area is affected. It's only in the orange so it's not the worst category possible but still fairly bad, there should be a lot more snow on Mt. Shasta for this time of year too. droughtmonitor.unl.edu/

[@mrtequilashooter]

Nice drive thanks for sharing

[@vanhouten64]

Shasta last erupted approximately year 1250 CE (770 years ago)

[@acfhs-xu4ck]

Cool video, the mountain has had less snow on it because of the drought, but the el nino this winter should result in more snow and some relief from the drought, which would be good for the water supply and crops out there as well

[@Israelroads]

Very impressive mountain (and video).

[@InterstateKyle]

+IsraelRoads Thank you!

[@alanbajkov919]

awesome, heading back from Palm Springs, I guess we'll stick to I5, since it's February

[@Cougar111469]

Nice work, man! Always enjoy your videos. Great choice of vehicle for long trips too. Is yours modded at all, or is it completely stock? I've got a 2002 Ford F250 Super Duty extended cab longbed with the bulletproof 7.3 liter Powerstroke diesel. It's got a modified factory airbox, 4" Magnaflow exhaust, and tasteful aftermarket 20" wheels. Future mods include a pyrometer, boost gauge, Banks intercooler, and a 50-gallon fuel tank to replace the 35 gallon stocker. It's earned its keep many times, dragging home derelict classic cars and rescuing stranded friends from all over the southern half of California!

[@rally618]

that's awesome.Good Job

[@InterstateKyle]

+rally618 Thank you!

[@MsPrincesspaulina]

I can pick out the voices of: Kenny Rogers, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Ray Charles. I should be able to pick out some of the others too but can't. The heart of Bigfoot country or so they say.

[@bearcattony00]

Diana Ross, Cyndi Lauper, Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie

[@DCMACNAMARA-vh6op]

I really hate this song.

[@MsPrincesspaulina]

@@bearcattony00 Thank you. I can pick them out now too. I also picked out Willie Nelson this time.

[@MsPrincesspaulina]

@@DCMACNAMARA-vh6op Not one of my favorites, either. Still it's fun to try and pick out the singers voices.

[@leticiagomez3259]

I like to go to Mt Shasta is just like Mt Fuji in Japan i love california ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

[@rally618]

I have a road for you to try one day. I seen from others on youtube .Colorado Route 82 from Aspen to Twin Lakes.Among the mountains are Mt Elbert and Mt Massive both 14ers.

[@Kimmath1]

May I ask when you visited Mount Shasta? It seemed to have pretty little snow on the mountain top. I planned to visit it this September and am so much worried that my late summer visit will get me to see Mount Shasta with very little snow :(

[@InterstateKyle]

Late July 2015. September is usually the month when the mountain has little snowpack before the season starts over on Oct 1st.

[@Kimmath1]

I was there yesterday driving back from Klamath Falls! Sadly, the fog (or smog) was so thick it hid almost the whole Shasta inside itself. I saw nothing from the agricultural inspection point and saw only the base of Shasta when being nearby. However, I was lucky enough that a day before I got a beautiful sunrise shot of Mount Shasta. Still I hope one day I get to be back there and see the actual scenery your video presents :)

[@choppyhaze2]

pornhub helps actually

[@BrianPooleJRCilantro]

Dorris was founded on December 23rd 1908 not 1907.

[@paulywhal2815]

The first time I seen Mount Shasta was in 1997 traveling up the I-5 headed to Corning California and as we're proceeding up the interstate there a big big mountain to my right and I got what's that that mountain goes all the way into the sky a family member says that's a volcano I go a Vault who again family member says that's a volcano I said no way we just left Sacramento and we have a volcano close to us I was ready to move but then on the other side of California and you have your send me to you National Park also Under the Volcano so we're like in between Mount Saint Helens of top is it a three volcanoes I don't want to see Ever erupted

[@BlandingCassatt]

The white stuff on Mt. Shasta looks like it never stops snowing. But that's just came from the eruption.

[@eshwarkumar8138]

Blanding Cassatt what eruption?

[@nriab23]

You should post song names. Some of them are really good.

[@InterstateJD]

7:21

[@nriab23]

Ahh sorry I stopped around the 6 min mark

[@ilovepollinators7635]

"We are the World" Various Artists. This is the 80's version. (Lionel Ritchie and Michael Jackson wrote it I believe.

[@ShawnSmith183]

Even the most remote and sparse areas of California have an intrigue to them. Where I live in NC the remote areas are mostly flat and run down with nasty red clay dirt. Even the mountains are nothing compared to California

[@MultiBlueblanket]

What was that sudden skip at 5:29?

[@InterstateKyle]

+Multiblue Blanket Because I skipped ahead a few miles.

[@DCMACNAMARA-vh6op]

Michael Jackson really loved children...especially little boys. 🐌

[@ojtoothpaste2240]

I've done this drive 50x. I wish they had more passing zones lol

[@pabloortizdiaz6449]

great views and trucks!
