In this video I set off to drive what has been called the most beautiful or scenic drive in America. That’s quite the claim. Can it live up to the hype? (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

I appreciate your thoughts but wonder if you are associating the wild fires that are causing the smoky air with climate change caused by the burning of fossil fuels. That SUV you are driving is a contributor to the problem. All of us who drive gas vehicles need to realize we are causing the problem and make lifestyle changes/choices to preserve the beauty we have in Nature.
That is clearly wildfire smoke, not smog.
Exactly my point, I did say smoke not smog.
So you’re either saying that my car runs off of lumber or that my car somehow caused the California wildfires. Sure thing lol.
I apologize if you felt I was criticizing you. I was merely commenting on your mentioning of all the smoke affecting the view.
It’s scientifically proven that the burning of fossil fuels has caused climate change and climate change has caused drought and trees not having resistance to the pine beetle. Thus we are having record fires in the western states.
My hope is we will all be aware of our actions and lifestyles that negatively impact our environment.
I have loved your passion for Nature and getting out there, thank you for sharing.
Fantastic! What else is there to say.
I’ve driven the Bear Tooth twice, & now I’m ready to go back after seeing this video. Thanks for sharing!⛰
Thanks Lynn, I’m glad you enjyoed it!
Just an idea. If you add your photos to your Google locations, you may gain more views.
Thanks for sharing everything with us!
Looks absolutely fantastic, we’re in Andalucia, Spain and have some great landscapes but we’d love to head off down those open roads especially with locations like that to enjoy. Views look stunning.
