Wind River range is some of the most gorgeous country in all the world!
I've lived many years in British Columbia and Hot Springs truly cure what ails you!
Wind River Canyon is beautiful!
the best thing is when i bank RVerTV videos for saturday morning!

Just hearing your background music makes me feel at ease. We love your videos. They are gentle and you are real.

The symbols on the side of the cowboy statue in Thermopolis are the cattle brands of local ranchers. I think they paid $100 to have their symbol displayed there.
I have a friend who lived in Thermopolis for a while. I really enjoyed it when I visited. A lot of neat historic buildings.
Best time to visit Wyoming is in June before wildfire season kicks into full gear. Wind River Canyon looks awesome!
Been through Wind River canyon 200 times. Never ceased to amaze me.
Is it a good kayaking river? Looks enticing.
Grew up in Riverton, Wyoming. It was a treat in winter as a kid to go swimming at the pool in Thermop on Saturday.
Russ I would love to travel with you because of all the stops you make! So awesome! You try to take time to smell the roses!
WE LOVE RVerTV.
I really love your vids they are so relaxing to listen to. Just wish you did some traveling in New England. I need a change in scenery. Happy Trails!
Russ is the best. Sitting here in Ohio for all but a half hour visit to Wyoming. Love it.
I lived in Wyoming for over 12 years….Been to the hot springs many times..it’s free for 20 minutes…you can go away and come back and go again for another 20 minutes…It also has the best dinosaur museum…You can actually watch them working items from the new digs….
I have been in Wyoming a few times, but its been awhile. I live in rural central Ohio in the summer and fall and we have some beauty here as well. Look at some of Russ's vids when he was here a few months ago. He loved it. I live in Florida for the winter and spring. Its great down there as well. Life is good. Russ is so cool.
Just beautiful !!!
Wow Russ! Wind aRiver Canyon is vast and long! I could hear the winds whipping around your van! So beautiful! Thank you for these great videos! Like you say if you can’t travel go with me!❤️😀🚙
Thank you, from 2 of us who have not been able to travel in 2021 (Non-Covid medical Issues), thank you. We have been able to travel vicariously thru you. Your videos are greatly appreciated.
Russ my wife and I lived in Wyoming for a couple of years, we always enjoyed the drive on 20. We lived in northern Wyo just 3 miles from Montana. My cousin owns a tack shop in Frannie Wyo. it was called the biggest little town in Wyo. it takes in two counties , 149 people but the county line runs through the center of town.
I enjoy your trips and commentaries, thank you for sharing.
I lived 8 years in WY. If the weather wasn't so harsh (windy during season changes, bone chilling cold in the winter) it would be the best state in the Union, IMO!
Just so beautiful!
Hey Russ - You forgot to wave!! What an incredible canyon, thanks so much for the ride!
Howdy Russ! Safe travels!
Remember, Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone would be Wyoming's most famous canyon. Though love Wind River. Stopped in Thermopolis once on our way through Cody.
Thank you! I grew up near there! Been a long while since I've been thru the tunnels. Dad used to tell us to hold our breath thru the tunnels asked then he'd drive real slow thru the last one! Fun times on the lake too. Great plays to grow up. used to see if
We went thru there in 2013 and absolutely loved it. I can't wait to get back there.
It's a beautiful place. It surprised me that nobody was in or walking around those mineral springs. And there were no boats in the water at the lake at the end of the video. Makes me wonder where everyone is. 👍👍
If you look again you will see some people walking on the walk ways around the springs.
I made it a point to stay 2 days at Thermopolis on last years visit to Wyoming. I wanted to have PLENTY of time to soak in the hot springs. It was the middle of my 2 week trip so the springs really hit the spot.
10:38
The "Wyoming Grand Canyon" is called the "Grand Canyon of Yellowstone". On my last visit to Yellowstone I spent most of one day there. Amazing.
Wow!! You never disappoint. That was amazing!!Thank you for taking me along on your journey!! Stay safe!!
thank you !!
@@rvertv A Swastika sign can be seen on a brick building at the other side of the road, at 6:29.
Excellent.
In case you are wondering, the train tracks crossed the river just before the dam and entered a tunnel over 7000ft long. I grew up in Worland and would go boating, fishing and skiing with my family
Its been several years back that I was there, but it is such a cool place! Wondered all over the place and did that bridge too. Hope you make it through Wind River Canyon.
Hey Russ!!! Take a "DIP" in the "HOT SPRING"!!! Be Safe!!!
Thanks Russ l thought l had really spectacular scenery down here in Oz but OMG man its so wonderful, l love my Armchair adventure, cold can on one side some nibbles on the other and I'm there with you all in the USA..thank you once again for the adventure regards

Must say, Russ, you've given me a bit of an education over your last several videos. Always thought of Wyoming as being just rolling open range for cattle and other ranchers. Had no idea the state is filled with such beautiful mountains and canyons. Very easy to understand why you want to return in the future. Safe traveling.
Russ, you are great. Your scenic videos are both educational and recreational
Thanks Russ once again for bringing us along on the ride and being able to see such great beautiful mountain west states right here from my home in Louisiana . See you on the next one.
We went rafting in the Wind River Canyon in June. Beautiful trip, freezing water! I highly recommend it though, it's unique and not as touristy as rivers like the Snake.
I love hot springs 😋
Very beautiful thank you. I really enjoy riding with you thank you very much
Just love the ride along with you thru Wyoming wow! The views amazing and those tunnels just awesome thanks!!
Hey Russ, thanks for another addition to my bucket list!👍
Wow what a scenic canyon.
Loved those tunnels awesome and the white water.
Never heard of Wind River Canyon, it's fantastic, one of the best episodes on the entire trip. Thank Russ!
I enjoy it God bless
I've been along there a couple different times but with you driving I could see a lot more, thanks. 😉
What a beautiful drive, it looked like you were going to another dimension when you went into those rock tunnels... Safe Travels
Russ, if you end up in Evanston, take the mirror lake highway into Utah. From Rock Springs, go through Flaming Gorge over to Vernal. Either way, you will like it!!!
Tunnels were dug when road was first built 1925 before that wagons had to over top of mountain. The first dam was built in 1908.
Thanks Russ for another great video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. Been through there several times, but not from the north.
Nice scenic wind river canyon sir.your drone cam plays an important role and your videos too sir nicely captured the nature.have a nice journey sir ❤❤❤❤👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
wonderful, thanks
What a beautiful area.
Stopped there last time through. Was thinking how easy it would have been for Butch and Sundance to just jump on top of the train and rob it when it went through there. As you said awsome drive from Buffalo.
Bishop Castle in Colorado is a place you'd enjoy seeing. Your viewers too! JS
Picture and video are nice but not like seeing it in person it's just awesome ❤ thanks for sharing 🥰
Nice 👍 high way🌞🌅 beautiful ♥️ adventure 🦋☘️🌞 enjoying fr jamaica 😎🌅🏖️
Definitely put this on your bucket list alongside the North Cascade Highway return trip, and the Cascade Mountains of Washington and Oregon. You could spend an entire summer in these three places. I lived in Thermopolis for a couple years and worked on the railroad. We used to have to run the tracks ahead of every train to make sure the tracks were clear of rocks. I spent another five years in Bonneville just before you get to Shoshoni. Wish I could be your tour guide on your return trip. FYI: the canyon highway is kept open year around. And the traffic doesn't bother to slow down in the snow. Crazy. Stay safe Russ.
They picked the perfect name for this river.
I have been there beautiful place ❤ my brother brought us there it was so cold when I was there the steam was breath taking ❤
I love this channel a lot,keep on truckin Russ,peace out ❤️❤️❤️
Awesome Russ. Thanks for these great rides! ❣
This is my favorite drive in Wyoming. I'm happy you got it on video. 19:40 I believe the road has been there since the horse and wagon days. But interestingly the original Yellowstone Highway bypassed the canyon and ran farther east. It wasn't until the 1920s that the road was finally upgraded enough to route the highway through the canyon.
When I was a kid living there they used to say the snow didn’t melt, the wind just blew it around until it wore out.
Thanks!
Thank you
(Continued) Looked for the mural on a building in Thermopolis, seen in 1990's on our way to Meteetse, WY for our son's wedding. Great trip.
The river enters the canyon as the Wind River from the south and emerges as the Big Horn at Thermopolis. Flows north. The train heads off to the east angles under the road and part of the lake. Heck of a tunnel.
This is one of the places I found on the map that I was going to go explore
👍👍 That was beautiful.
Wow great video! This is now on my bucket list.
That's an impressive canyon. If there's a gradual lifting of the terrain. then that's another Grand Canyon in the making. After a million years or so.
Glad to see you took my advice. Cool place..check out the Wyoming whiskey destrlery in Kirby just down the road.
Thank you!
I love the canyon. I travel though it multiple times a year. It never gets old.
Russ, you forgot to say "YuckDonald's!" passing thru Thermopolis...! 😁😁😁
Russ, my wife and I were just through that canyon about a week ago, headed from Cody to Fort Collins Colorado. You are right, Wyoming is a great place to vist, from what we saw, it is a beautiful state and look forward to our next visit.
It must be the camera perspective, but it looks to me like you are losing elevation while going through the canyon, but the river is flowing in the opposite direction.
I have thoroughly enjoyed your drive through Wyo. I was particularly interested in Thermopolis, Wind River Canyon....as a young girl I grew up in that area...it was so good to see them again. I knew you would be happy to go through 3 tunnels. I always loved the Canyon but it could be scary in the winter.
The Wind River Canyon was really a special place. ❤️🇺🇲
Awesome video! Love Wyoming
Boysen Reservoir !!!!!!!!
Look like a cool place to stop near the bottom and ride a bike up then cruise back down
🙋♀️Hello Russ! The drive from Thermopolis through Wind Canyon to the Lake in Boysen State Park was very enjoyable I thought. Loved stopping to look back at those huge rock walls, loved the tunnel going through those huge boulders. The campground seemed like a nice place to visit, was quiet, not a heavy populated area.
Good day to you russ doing better
Nice Drive. Got to get out that way.
Good thing about wind. No flies!
What you missed concerning the Wind River Canyon is when the Wind River exits the canyon is a place called "The Wedding of the Waters"! The Wind River changes name and becomes the Big Horn River.
I knew you were going to love Wind River Canyon.. Cant wait until the next video, I'm curious which way you'll go once you get to Shoshone....Casper way or Lander way????
A must see ,thank you
Top drive today Russ, thoroughly enjoy it. Thanks 👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
Love Wyoming!!
The Wind River Canyon is gorgeous!!! ❤
I was there in August 2023 ❤❤❤❤
Videos get better and better. Great background music, and the maps help me understand where you are. Thanks for all your efforts!
Wow… I am for sure going there…😂👍🏻
Your travels through there has definitely made me want to go through there. The only thing missing was the train. Just absolutely stunning ! Safe travels my friend.
great trip as always Russ.loved the ride.been so many years since i made that trip.would love to do it once again.funny you should mention cracking the windshield.i met a dump bucket my last trip and i got it right in the windshield.cracked big time.fell off his truck.i just kept going. thanks
Do you stay home during the winter or travel all year long ?
And do you map out a year ahead of time where you’ll go, or just plan it as you’re driving ?
Another beautiful part of the country.
Wind River Canyon is kinda an optical illusion - when traveling direction you did, it appears you're going down into canyon but you're actually driving uphill (note river flow) because canyon walls get higher. I always said river is going wrong way.
that,s what puzzled me.
Yeah, like watching the river going uphill, very curious illusion that happens when you have no horizon.
As usual, I followed along on Google Earth. Saw that the railroad disappeared into a tunnel that seemed especially close to the Boysen Dam. According to Wikipedia, that tunnel, dug by the dambuilders, goes UNDER the edge of the dam and UNDER an arm of the lake! I don't worried going through tunnels, I enjoy going through tunnels. THAT tunnel would worry me!
Took this route in July. Prior trips were in winter e
nroute to togwotee to snowmobile.
