When I was a young man I really wanted to travel America but for one reason or another I never made it.
So being able to watch a video like this is a real treat for me, thanks.
After awhile I felt like we were driving to fast so I slowed it down to. 75. Although I did notice we had a bit of traffic pass us when we slowed down not sure what the hurry was.
I especially like that you didnt skip ahead too much ( the less the better.
Also just the sound of the road and that you didnt shove your face in front of the camera at all.

I always tell people that live on the west coast that they are so fortunate to be living within hours of some of the best scenery in the world. A lot of people don't realize that millions of people from other countries come to visit the beauty of the Sierra Nevadas every year. I always hear complaints about the long drive from Las Vegas to Yosemite but you could not get very much closer to the place than 99% of people in the world. Especially when Tioga Pass is open, that saves 2 hours of driving into the park.

Man this video is so comfy to me. As a kid, my family used to make this drive at least once a year to see the Hot August Nights car show in Reno, as well as see the sights and go hiking in the mountains. Once my grandpa died, my parents got better jobs elsewhere, and I started high school. we stopped going.
Just many fond memories of this drive with my family, especially the section after Lee Vining.

Thank you again for posting these drives along and in the eastern Sierras. Brings back memories and although the towns and their appearances have changed, the stunning scenery remains the same. Hoping that you continue on US 395 up through Susanville and Alturas, and up into Oregon and Washington (the Tri Cities of Richland, Kennewick and Pasco are among my favorite towns in that region.

I didn't know California had forbidden places and a closed Hwy 39 for many years. California generally isn't known for it's mountains and rivers. This video did a great job at uncovering these 'forbidden' places of this beautiful state. I see where California gets the nickname, The Golden State. Judging by the majestic beauty of California it is hard to fathom 33 million people lived there.

Worth taking a side trip up the Bristlecone Pine Forest 11000 ft up in the White Mountains east of Bishop. The view from Grandview Campground of the eastern escarpment of the Sierra Nevada is a view that will blow you away in its immensity. This is why I live in California. I strap my canoe on top of my van and just cruise from one lake to the next.

Excellent video. I've just completed a road trip thru Utah and would suggest a video of UT-95 starting either at Hanksville or (especially) from UT-276, south thru and across the Colorado River to Blanding. I travelled on UT-14, -12, and -24 and this was the highlight of my trip.

Wonderful drive at the eastern foothills of Sierra Nevada, drove quite a lot on the other side 2 weeks ago, through Yosemite and Sequoia, but didn't cross the mountains to drive also on 395. Thanks a lot for the video, greetings from a roadtripper from Germany!

395 on the eastern side of the sierras is always a great drive. Having said that I would have preferred the drive to start even further south (like Lone Pine) so you would get a good shot of the eastern flank of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park.

Thank you! Thank you! I can never get enough of Highway 395. I wish if you had the time and inclination to do one video, the complete highway from one end to another. But I am being selfish!
Once again thank you for all your efforts. Well done.

I've recently relocated from Huntington Beach, California to Gardnerville, Nevada. The 395 and the Sierra Nevada mountain range is one I will never get tired of seeing. Thank you for your video.

So, watching this one reminds me, 50 years ago I lived in this area first in Bishop, at Paradise lodge and then at Tom’s Place as a kid. What great memories just watching!

Fantastic video! The drive through the Sierra Nevadas has to be one of the greatest touring routes in the world. It's what driving in the US is all about, really!

Makes me want to saddle a horse, toss on a pancho, and chew on a cigar while riding atop one of those ridges with some cool, Spanish music playing in the distance.

The mountains in CA have some of the highest relief anywhere in the 48 states. Up 395 and down PCH is one hell of a road trip.

Those 1800s explorers who moved west through this all deserve a big statute with their families name on it.

The eastern United States may have the most people but the western United States has the most diverse scenery.
