For a pure camping experience up to 9,000 ft. in elevation, take State. Rt. 366 out of Safford, AZ. and camp in one of six campgrounds. This video displays the excellent views, brooks and waterfalls and, of course, the campgrounds.

This is the first in several videos describing the 1700 miles of roadway between Douglas, AZ and the Canadian border in Montana. On July 14, 2013, this video briefly explores the town of Douglas. On July 15, we'll start our drive in a 31 ft. RV passing through seven national forests and several national parks and monuments. More on them in subsequent postings. We expect we'll spend about six we...

    The reason why they call the Anasazi is because every since the navajo moved into the canyon they had nightmares, seeing figures and getting sick. There is a lot of make up stories about the canyon.

    You captured the essence of what we're trying to convey to the traveling public. We should have our guide out on Hwy 191 in a couple months. It will have lots of still shots and video snippets.. This is to say nothing about the 100 or so points of interest (POIs) that we describe in detail. Exciting stuff . . . Fred

    Martin Forrester ( UK) I travelled this road during one of many trips to the South West, it was a fascinating drive to the little town of Alpine at 8000 ft elevation. A place I could have happily made my home.

    I once drove this unique stretch of highway. In the mid 80s it was then called hwy 666! I left Hannigan meadows at about sunset and drove southbound in a car. It was a drive that I will never forget! It's the longest most curvy road with continuous switchbacks that I have yet seen in over 50 years of driving adventure! Except meeting a head on huge charging longhorn on open range, I never saw another vehicle all night long drive. That night sky on that high elevation ridge road was bright and beautiful, and the most spectacular starlight that my eyes have seen in clearest view!!!

    I remember driving US-191 in the spring, and it was so beautiful because there were orange poppies lining both sides of the highway. It must have been the southern section.

    OK, we're making our way home now. Currently at Henry's Lake State Park CG in Island Park, ID. Just finished shooting an auto tour near our research of U.S. Hwy. 191. It and our 191 project are soooo exciting. Can hardly wait to get all the research out to the public. Expect to be home mid-October.
