Good luck 😊

Love it. Go get it!

When you reach native lands such as Navajo nation, choctaw, etc there might be little to no signal so be prepared to bring a map in case google/ apple maps don’t work

For me a great but of the fun is the planning. Ok, so far, the plan and the reality tend to be different, but always a great joy. I’ve taken a few road trips in America and I can confirm it’s the great country on Earth. There’s simply no place like it, it’s diversity is astounding, it’s people welcoming, open and honest. (Don’t tell me, there’s places you wouldn’t want to visit, save your typing, I live in England and there’s plenty of places I won’t go). I’m a firm believer that you take it with you. Be uptight, closed minded, mean and jealous, well don’t be surprised if that’s what you find. My experience tells me the people of America are wonderful, and so I proceed from there. I love to see the lower 48 in one trip! What’s your plan? As a Brit, I can only visit for 90 days under the visa wavier program. 90 days isn’t long enough to see America. I’d need 3 times that at least. What a wonderful world it is when we plan such life affirming trips. I hope you do it. Make it happen.

Good Luck. We did Charleston, SC to LA (via Savannah, Macon, Little White House, Selma, Jackson, Shreveport, Mena, Lawton, Amarillo, Palo Duro Canyon, Rte 66, Tucumcari, Albuquerque, Espanola, Pagosa Springs, Cortez, 4 Corners, Monument Valley, Page & Lake Powell, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, Grand Canyon (Sth rim), Kingman, Oatman (in Hills on Hwy 10), Rte 66 to Hollywood, Rodeo Drive), then up Hwy 101, PCH 1, & Big Sur to Monterey, Palo Alto to Napa, back to Yosemite NP, East to Las Vegas via Death Valley, up North again via Zion, Bryce, Salt Lake City, Tetons and Yellowstone, out East to Cody, Buffalo, then onto Mt Rushmore & Rapid City, ND. Then Badlands, Wounded Knee, Nth Platte, then fast track via Kansas, Nashville, Ashville and Home. 6 weeks and 9,200 miles roughly. We were not Camping. Detailed this not to show off, but hopefully wet your appetite. We loved it so much, we are advanced Stages of the next crossing the US via the Great Lakes to Washington, Pacific Coast and back through middle from SanFran. Most likely in 2022, or 23. Safe Driving & Bon Voyages.

US 395 through Owens Valley offers the towering, snow-clad Sierra Nevada Mts to the west and just as high, more rounded, and drier White Mts (in the rain shadow of the Sierra) to the east, just a few miles from base to base and about 20 miles from crest to crest. Both ranges are amazing, and the contrast phenomenal. This should be #1 on the list.

Love that road. Always ended with June lake snowboarding 🏂 for me

Yes!! I took a drive from Tahoe down to Bishop (White Mountain) and was just in awe the entire time. Such a beautiful drive.

Sierra Nevada, Roadrash memories!

a top ten for sure

I have taken that route 3 times & have really enjoyed it.

Yes. The pacific coast highway/highway 101 is like my home away from home. My dream is to live on the the coast of Oregon (central or south). So much beauty on the United States Pacific Coast. Bucket list it!

@@1houndgal Added to my growing list, thanks.

Did you drive over the Bixby bridge?

Thanks for the advice, this is what I need when planning my next trips to America. I’m planning to drive highway 101. So August to October sounds perfect.

@@steviejd5803 My recommendation is to take 101 South and take a detour by Monterey. There you can get on Highway 1. The first couple of miles don't offer much to see, just shopping malls and sand dunes. Once you pass Monterey the view is awesome all the way down. There's a Chevron gas station on the left before you leave Monterey. Also you need to have your ID with you in Monterey county in order to purchase liquor or smokes. There's also a gas station in Big Sur but I don't think it's open 24 hours a day. Big Sur restaurants are pretty good too, some are only open on weekends though. Limekiln state park in Lucia is a good spot to have a break or spend the night. They have camping spots and fire pits too, also there's a beach access there. You have to make a reservation a couple of weeks prior because it can get very busy late Summer. Always check the road conditions too. There may be some closures due to landslides, wildfires or bridge closures. Farther South near San Luis Obispo you can get back on 101. This detour may take up to 5 hours but it's well worth it. Enjoy your trip. Be safe.

@@laszlokramer5052 Hey, thanks, that’s so kind of you. I will take a look at that route on my maps. I’m sitting here in England dreaming of sunny days and road trips in America. Thanks again for the knowledge, it’s very much appreciated 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@@steviejd5803 You're welcome. Once in California you have to experience Highway 190 East from Olancha all the way to Furnace Creek and Zabriskie Point in Deat Valley. That will blow your mind. It's not just like any road trip it's like a voyage to Mars.

@@laszlokramer5052 Great insider knowledge, I’m so grateful. The only good thing of 2020, is that I managed to save money. So when beautiful America opens her boarders, I’m ready to go. Bring it on.

My home

Agreed! Saw that photo and thought the same thing! Loved the drive along UT-12

I want to see them all, but proud of you to see that many already. Wonderful road trip.

I totally agree with Rt. 12! One of the nicest rides.

Fall in Vermont sooo beautiful subhan allah

Me too. I had 3 fully planned trips to America in 2020, never made one. How frustrating. I cannot wait to get moving again this year, I hope.

@@steviejd5803 we look forward to following your adventures!

Was life old there? Older than the trees?

I absolutely love that drive. Very underrated and one of the most dramatic mountains drives in the country, especially when coming from Death Valley. Great suggestion!

as a californian, who has done this drive couple of times, i absolutely agree!

Scotland is beautiful too!

Scotland got a separate flag ? Isn’t it a part of UK ? Doesn’t it fall under union jack 🇬🇧?

@@arkarya8768 Scotland is part of the UK, but the saltire is the flag of Scotland 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

ya im surprised the beartooth highway wasnt listed

Sounds great. Did you drive the whole road? In one go or with stops?

I too did this in 2015 in a Camaro convertible. One of the most memorable drives ever. A must is a stop at Middlegate, fuel and great food in the middle of nowhere then back on the gas at speeds that I won’t post here. Great memories which I will repeat someday. Only problem is I live in England so it’s not on my doorstep sadly.

I've done both Beartooth and the million dollar highway. The San Juans are still more scenic, I would go so far as to say the San Juans in Colorado might be the most scenic mountain range in the US.

I was surprised they left off the Beartooth Pkwy. It would definitely make my top 10, probably top 3.

not all of NEW Jersey is what you see in The Sopranos. Western NJ along the Delaware River is very beautiful and scenic

They are on something to believe that

Also Hwy 89 from Wickenburg to Prescott. Don't drive it at night.

What’s the best time to do this drive? I’m guessing Summer?
