I remember one time when my family and I were traveling to Cincinnati(back when I lived in Conn) and on I-80 in Pennsylvania traffic was "paralyzed" for a couple hours maybe more. I'll never forget that. 6:20
I filmed CT-8 and Glenwood Canyon coming up so curves don't bother me at all, in fact they make for good video. The Parkway just doesn't do anything for me and I-95 in CT is just horrible.
Yes, I have about 7-8 videos coming between Denver and Salt lake City. Really there is nothing worth filming outside the cities before you get to Denver, I don't film for the sake of filming, the road has to have some kind of redeeming quality to it.
It's an informal name, not being from the area I don't know how or why it was chosen. My guess is because of the quirky nature of the original interchange along with it being tough to navigate at that time. I really did not want to waste two text boxes explaining that to be honest.
Here's a quick video idea next time you're in the area: Approach from the north around Thornton or so, on 25 south, make a loop around downtown on East 270, a short jaunt down 70 east bound, then drop down 225, and come back up north again on 25. Makes for a very visually interesting video/experience. I drove that exact route this weekend. Love them freeways up in Denver!
i hate the on ramp to 70 westbound from vasquez , almost got nailed by a 18 wheeler last night that decided to get in the slow lane right as i am merging onto 70.....thank good ness i have great brakes on my truck.
Great video as always Jim! I was wondering where you get the images of the old 1960's maps you put at the beginning of your videos. Are these maps you own? or is there a website you get them from? I love looking at old maps. Also, will you be making any videos from footage of the Salt Lake City area?
YAY!!! You finally got to Denver! Love your videos no matter where they're filmed! I created a video response of the skyline during the day. Hope you like!
why can I nit accept the fact that the mousetrap isn't so I'm preside but I still love it... I just love the long ramps I guess... and the way that it's like from the bottom levels.. maybe idk... maybe the history.. idk why I think of it as an awesome interchange when it's not supposed to be.. I've had trouble with this lately that I don't know what it is..

Awesome! I had a layover in Denver a few years ago and have an internet friend in Westminster, CO. One of these days I shall visit Denver!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome job as always Jim. I'm chomping at the bit for those Cali videos
Great video and presentation, Jim! I really enjoyed it.
Nice ride and the camera is looking great at night! Looks like a nice place to drive around ... except in the winter.
Thanks, yes they are fun to work with.
Thank you!
Thanks!
very cool vibe with that music - and very nice ride - again!
I'd agree, thanks!
Bad music
@@Jaya-903 No, just not your taste, and that's OK, the music works very well.
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it!
Thanks, because it was difficult to navigate it its original configuration, Google it to learn more.
Those are old maps I have, you can get a good size lot for a reasonable amount on ebay with regards to those.
Still not over your beautiful intro of Atlanta.
Nothing weird about that! Thanks for watching!
Will you do one of vail pass or glenwood canyon on I70? Those offer very amazing scenery
Yes it is.
Thanks, glad you liked it, the night videos require a much different mood than the usual fare.

Did not have a chance to do that this time around.
Cool I am going to be in Denver this weekend
I miss Denver! Thanks for the video and great night tour of the city! Greetings from Great Falls, Montana!
Thanks, glad you like it!
Your I-76 footage brought me here again. Thanks!
Cool! Thank you.
Thank you very much!
I wasn't there but 12-13 hours but from what I saw it looked nice.
I did not notice anything to be honest, and we were as high as 11,158 the next day at the Eisenhower Tunnel..
I like the NJ Turnpike and have a couple videos of parts of it, granted, south of Exit 6 there's nothing to see.
Even at 8:45 PM, there is still light in the sky. It makes the drive very pleasant.
Nice video!
really enjoyed this one - twilight vids are special.
Thank you! The Rockies videos coming next week are pretty special.
Fantastic ride, Jim, and excellent choice of music! (Can't wait your videos about L.A. fwys at night!!!!)
Thanks Kyle!
Great video and an excellent choice of music. It matched the vibe of the city!
thanks for driving on me, it makes me feel happy that im important.
Nice work, Jim! Wish my camera worked as well in the dark as yours does. Thanks for the ride...
Denver is a very nice city!
Fantastic job! You picked the right time to film in the evening and had a great dusk sky to work with against the city back drop!
3:51 shows Hotel VQ. I looked it up on Google Maps and found out it is permanently closed now.
Driving on the dance floor
Would like to see a video of Denver Downtown
I agree with Jeffrizel1986. Great views of a great city.
Beautiful can’t wait to Move here
haha nice! i love that you were in my city!
Pause at 2:06. Beautiful view of the suburban areas!
I always look up to the high quality you make it's very good the imagines are so still how do you fix that can you expose that ?
Thanks Scott, There was no picking the time here, this was shot literally as we rolled in to town, good luck I'd say!
Thanks Geoff!
Great video! This helped relieve some of my homesickness! :)
That was amazing; the combined views of the sky and the highway near the beginning are beyond beautiful.
Thank you! I wasn't in Denver very long but it looks like a neat city. I accepted your video response, thanks.
The skies in this video came out beautifully! Your new camera does a damn good job at night! Great work.
3:12
I filmed CT-8 and Glenwood Canyon coming up so curves don't bother me at all, in fact they make for good video. The Parkway just doesn't do anything for me and I-95 in CT is just horrible.
Yes indeed, I went to LA on my trip, have not looked at the footage yet but should have plenty of videos.
@Freewayjim, I wonder did you went in and under the Convention Center on Speer??? It's pretty cool!!!
How did you like Denver? I used to live by I-70. I would advise you to stay off I-25 during rush hour. By the ways thanks for putting it up on UA-cam.
No, I did not get anywhere near there.
That probably not someplace I'll get to, sorry.
Did you drop down into the Four Corners? I was up there last week and it is beautiful, yet desolate.
Any chance that you'll do an I-95 or Merritt Parkway (Route 15) video from Greenwich, CT through the state?
San Francisco, LA, SD and Vegas.
Yes and yes and then some! I filmed over 150 miles of I-70 west of Denver.
Great video, perfect audio.
Am I right? Is Denver, Colorado the state capital of Colorado? And I wish that the light posts were small like Chicago Illinois. :(
Are you going to be posting any videos of the roads between the cities?
Did the altitude/thin air effect you?
Yes, I have about 7-8 videos coming between Denver and Salt lake City. Really there is nothing worth filming outside the cities before you get to Denver, I don't film for the sake of filming, the road has to have some kind of redeeming quality to it.
Good, you didn't run into the stadium! :P
South Park lives
It's an informal name, not being from the area I don't know how or why it was chosen. My guess is because of the quirky nature of the original interchange along with it being tough to navigate at that time. I really did not want to waste two text boxes explaining that to be honest.
Glad I could help, thank you!
Thanks, it would have been even better had I thought to clean the damn lens :P
Any chance of coming out to Los Angeles and doing some videos out here?
Here's a quick video idea next time you're in the area:
Approach from the north around Thornton or so, on 25 south, make a loop around downtown on East 270, a short jaunt down 70 east bound, then drop down 225, and come back up north again on 25. Makes for a very visually interesting video/experience.
I drove that exact route this weekend. Love them freeways up in Denver!
I did not get to, hopefully I can see that someday.
IMO Merritt Parkway is not boring but probably too quaint and curves to often for you.
i hate the on ramp to 70 westbound from vasquez , almost got nailed by a 18 wheeler last night that decided to get in the slow lane right as i am merging onto 70.....thank good ness i have great brakes on my truck.

Why is that interchange called The Mousetrap? You never fully explained that.
You should have your own show!
Bigger hills of Rocky Mountains of Highest
Thanks, it's a cool city IMO!
Agree about I-95 in CT especially from New Haven west. Dislike Jersey Turnpike also
I never knew about that huge car wreck on the mousetrap in 1984.
Yeah for the duration of the whole trip, doh!
Uh yeah, that's kind of the plan, smh.
YAY!!! You finally got to Denver! Love your videos no matter where they're filmed! I created a video response of the skyline during the day. Hope you like!
Not likely, both are boring roads IMO and I won't be in that area for at least a year if not more.
Denver cool awesome
why can I nit accept the fact that the mousetrap isn't so I'm preside but I still love it... I just love the long ramps I guess... and the way that it's like from the bottom levels.. maybe idk... maybe the history.. idk why I think of it as an awesome interchange when it's not supposed to be.. I've had trouble with this lately that I don't know what it is..
did you go to San Francisco and Seattle?
Excuse me? you don't tell me what to film, got it? Now if you want to pony up a few $K we can talk.
haha hey, it happens. We've all been there! :-)
amazi g
LOL, Thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
