Glenwood Canyon is a great feat of civil engineering. An interstate built carefully with environmental considerations, well engineered.

thanks for posting. i've been thinking about what the drive was like from Denver to Vegas. Was trying to imagine the drive by looking at the route on Google Maps, then did a quick search and stumbled across your video. Thanks for posting.

Oh the horror-filled days when Barbie used to sit in the left lane. Thank God she changed.

My roommate used to drive on a Friday from Vegas to Denver and back to Vegas on the Sunday night, every other weekend for over a year to see his family. Thought he was insane but always wondered what the drive was like. Thanks for sharing.

This is the best stretch of interstate in the whole country!!!

Oh my God, I just happen to run into this; and I love it; thanks for doing this.......

this was very informational for me i could not believe you recorded this thanks a bunch

It appears Emily Chen slowly bought in to the narrative and optics of this new-age travelogue! Thanks for the ride, Barbie!

I have taken that route to and from Vegas from Denver several times. It's roughly 780 miles and a 13 hour trip. Best part is heading to Las Vegas and when on I-15 going south and approaching the city at night.

Thank you so much. I full-time in an RV and I cannot count the number of times you have helped me plan my routes as I travel the West.

vote up if you watched this for no reason!

Going around 500 mph going through Glenwood Canyon was amazing at that speed thanks for the video....

thanks for sharing this video really appreciate it

Beautiful!

Amazing Driving

Very nice drive! Enjoyed every minute of it when I drove it.

I make that drive about once a year. I love the Glenwood Canyon area and San Rafael Swell area. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting this! I haven't been home to Colorado in a while. I really enjoyed the stretch from Rifle back to that hotel on Quebec St (it's the stretch that I've driven many times)

Feels like a Video Game

I thought that the entire video was excellent, but I really liked the segment through the Virgin River Gorge in northwest Arizona. Wow!

Thank you for this video. We are taking the family on a 3,500 mile road trip this summer in a caravan of 3 cars, and I was worried about crossing the Rockies. Watching this film from beginning to end has relieved my fear...although, after leaving the Eisenhower Tunnel it appears there is a very long grade that must be negotiated in low gear. I'm from Los Angeles and not much of a mountain driver.

Very well done! I just had to subscribe!

There is a few grades along the way.The Virgin River Gorge is another fairly steep grade.Also watch my Bakersfield CA to Los Angeles CA video I did a few months ago.It has that I-5 stretch on it.

I had the same car.. I miss my z28. Cool vid

I love the 5th music in this video

one of my favorite gorges - I was waiting for it... halfway to Denver - thanks!

damnnn the roads in denver in 2012... i wish they were like that now

I love the first song

What a road trip

Too bad the mountain drive isn't like that anymore. Way too much traffic these days, like rush hour every day. I remember driving from Pena Blvd to Thousand Oaks CA straight through with the exception to spend a 1/2 hour eating breakfast in Vegas. The trip took me 21hrs. The I-70 elevated section at the very end no longer exists. They stopped off on Quebec near the old airport. We started our honeymoon in that hotel.

Since Nevada, Arizona, Utah and Colorado utilize the U.S. Standard lining system, under normal speed conditions, not sped-up film, the center line turns solid at 152 miles per hour. If you watch the mile posts click by and watch the clock, this driver was, for most of the journey, oblivious to any posted speed limit signage. Here is another ticket for you sir.

lol there are no vehicles for miles on eastbound I70 after the junction of I70/I15. Great vid.

It says 10 hours, but there is a one-hour time loss from Pacific to Mountain time zone (this is after Daylight saving time, so the time change is after crossing from AZ to UT), so it should be 5:30pm that you're arriving in Denver.

Thanks for the video. Which place are the gas stops?

Nice Camaro Z28 , I had a 94 and sold it. I was a dumbass for doing that. Hope to get another one :-) . They are so much fun with the v8.

hey barbiepoledancer, what text font did you use for this and all of your other old time lapses? I want to use this font for my time lapse videos as well!

How is the drive during December from CALIFORNIA to Denver. Snow.? Dangerous?

My favorite part is the Glenwood Canyon.

what camara do/did you use at the time of this recording? looks awesome and love the soundtrack!!

Also, what are all the music in this video?

dope ass video

so um, how many miles does the 'ol camaro have on it now? it's got to be some kind of a record.

Hi thanks for this. My fiancee and I have just booked our honeymoon in the US and we are driving from Denver to Las Vegas and have given ourselves to do this drive. We are going in mid-march which I see is about the same time of year you took this video. Can you recommend anything to stop and see along the way, best routes to take if we have more time etc. Anything you can help us with would be much appreciated! Thanks, Ian

Why are you mostly in the left lane? Is it that you can pass cars on the right?

you are very fast!!

Wow! You're going to put domestic airlines into bankruptcy. Your high speed road trip videos are incredible!

Like it

I am considering this drive. I have a 1990 Nissan Pathfinder. It doesn't do well on steep grades. In California, it struggled on the Grapevine. If you're familiar with that stretch on I-5, is there anything that steep? It looks like Veil may pose the biggest problem. Thoughts? Thank you.

Rodney S Roy K Probably 65 to 75 on the interstates and varible through the city

wicked to see a logging truck at 35:00

ITS LIKE IM REALLY IN FALLOUT

Good.

What is the last song in this video? It sounds cool.

around 8:00 mins i rm taking that road at night Las vegas is lit

Do you mind if I ask how many miles on your car ?

24:15 i was wondering when you'd stop for gas. I was thinking, there is no way that they're going to make it to Green River without fueling up first

Clear by Sonny Campbell

And...... Here is your ticket sir for improper lane usage ! Never left the left lane - B.S.!

Whats the sing called the one that starts at 52:30?

Lol! The same route the Greyhound bus goes through and back. Eh!??

Can you do this in HD? This is a great trip to Colorado. Make it look better!

the trucks go so slow in the mountains that you have to ride the left lane Tomac

are there any rest stops along the way for gas, food and toilet ?

Love that left passing lane.

what was your average speed?

40:25 is the exit to Palisade, Co.

7:30 up until 18:02 What is the song name?

Remaining, most obstinantly, in the left lane like that is very arrogant and extremely rude and offensive to almost every other driver on that road. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the way in which this particular driver conducts themself no matter where they may be. What a total moron !

...........and past Denver, it's on thru the 400 miles of the purest flatlands on earth as one travels thru Eastern Colorado and Kansas, then it's on thru the Alphabet Loop of Kansas City, and then thru Saint Louis where one picks up I-55, then one travels thru endless cornfields before one fially ventures into the Windy City of Chicago!!!

I always enjoy driving from Denver to Las Vegas; better than flying. However, my next trip is Saint George and Mesquite. Enough Las Vegas for a while.

Download video and then convert it to MP3 that you have only this track. I never try this one but maybe will work just try it.

u got a 50 gall0on tank on that jewel or what lol ?

Great video, and thanks for posting, but I have to admit I can't watch it. Spoiled by high def cameras!

Reminiscing! I've done this route like 6 times but from L.A. to Denver, CO.

1:23 Exit Craig Road, North Las Vegas Nevada

Sometimes, the camera blurs.

Well I did it in about 10 hours maybe 11 in the Wolfsburg edition.

it takes ,11 ours in real life Vegas to Denver your like a traveler

Ty for video but the left lane is for passing only. Not driving the whole way there. Smh

whats the speed limit?

You should hook up a mic in your engine bay instead of playing music. It'll sound less annoying once sped up ;)

16:10 Why on earth did tou get back in the left lane?

No way I’d do it. I actually flew from Las Vegas McCarran to DIA. Its too long a drive. Realistically, it would take most people two days by car to make the trip. That’s why we have air travel for those long distances. DUH

where is barbiepoledancer

The music isn't "great"...not everyone is on ecstasy

Filmed march 21st? That's my crush's birthday!

52:10

Left lane is the passing lane. You spend an inordinate amount of time in the passing lane instead of moving over once you have finished passing. You should set a better example.

I think you read his/her comment wrong. Or maybe I'm the one reading it wrong.... lol

Thumbnail at 42:19

General stupidity don't count as brain injury!

Talk about left lane abuse! Just another one of those that thinks the left lane isn't for passing only. Wow! Just sad!

Fake!!! There are no cars that can go that fast! Get real! And the car would not stay on the road going that fast anyway dudes. Once I was trying to drive as fast as I could and I looked down at that deal that tells you how fast you are going and it said 105 and my car jumped off the road and rolled and it killed my girl friend and I hurt my brain real bad,and I also broke my foot and my girl freinds Mom and Dad got real pissed and said that I couldn't go out with her hot sister ever. Shit!

Oh vail pass... Getting overtaken by 18 wheelers going 85mph

Yeah but I have a brain injury. What' s your excuse?

you're driving on the wrong lane. There are cars passing you on the slow lane because you're driving like you own the passing lane. Also, the resolution is not very good. Nice editing though
