Great to see my home town get some love I've been a tribal member of the Colorado River Indian tribe's (C.R.I.T) my whole life

@erikandreassen6531 Год назад

Thank you for the journey, due to ill health (been for a while) medication and age I can't travel, in fact I'm also limited in my own country (New Zealand) due to not being able to drive due to medication. So watching you (especially full-screen) takes me to a place I can't go in person. So thank the internet and you tube but most of all thank you for showing me a huge chunk of your country. Keep on trucking and I'll keep watching.

Parker dam is the deepest dam in the world. I started going to the Parker strip in 1960. My folks leased a trailer at Echo Lodge on "A row" in the 70's. Great memories.

@kevinp2820 Год назад

Hello Russ! So good to see the Parker Strip and the Colorado River water level is looking good. We are members of Emerald Cove RV Resort have been for 16 years. Love that place. Yeah it's older but very enjoyable to stay at. Great people and the best food at the Tiki Bar and club house. We will be headed there in a few weeks. Thanks for whetting my appetite! Lol!

@paul9156c Год назад

Me my Dad, Cousin and Uncle watched the Parker 400 Enduro motorcycle race in around 1970. The last time I was there. It's where I learned to ride a motorcycle. Very good memories! 👍

Many thanks for a great guided tour Russ, your commentary and drone sequences are always so informative. I suspect many of us watching from chilly northern climes would love to spend the winter down there!

@BrendaHaltom-cs6ck 3 месяца назад

Thanks Russ! Enjoyed seeing The Mighty Colorada River and your memories of bringing Scooby 2 to swim in it! I wish you could get a Scooby 3 and create new memories! I wish we could have seen a burro or two though! Come back here again this year in 2024!❤️😀🇺🇸🚙🐎🐕‍🦺🐺

@IDNHANTU2day Год назад

Russ, this is funny. I was in Parker today. Went to check out some of the places you suggested. Went up to the Dam, some of the floating bars on the river, Bill William's Refuge, BlueWater resort. As I drove on the 95 I wondered if I would come across you and your White Mother Ship (now that you have an E-Bike). Last night I stayed in the London Bridge area at one of the resorts. Had a nice dinner and great walk with my wife. The area is fantastic. Just got home to the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles. I drove my EV and discovered Range Anxiety is a waste of time. They have chargers everywhere. I'm hoping to go to Oatman and feed the Burros before it starts to get really cold. Thank you for all the tips.

You past the government camp my family I use to live at. They put a fence and tore down the houses and Parker grade school. I use to go to that post office all the time. There use to be a little grocery store which we would go to.Spent hours on the river and crossed over the dam hundreds of times for 5 years. My dad use to be apower plant operator there. The hippies use to love this area.

🙋‍Hello Russ! Beautiful day to ride out to see Crossroads Campground. Offered some nice places to camp along the Colorado River. The sun sparkling across the top of the river, the tables, kindly welcome you in. Beautiful blue body of water. Nice place to enjoy riding a e-bike. The aerial view shows how enjoyable trails for ATVs are follow. Enjoy the rest of your evening Russ. Have a good week.

Nice to see you back on the road. Enjoy your videos. southern Nevada, Arizona and Southern California have the mild winter weather to entice the snow birds who enjoy it.

Hey Russ, I don't know if I agree with your characterization of the Parker Dam route as "the prettiest drive in the world", especially after having driven over Sonora and Tioga passes on a mini road trip in the last couple of days. Oh well to each their own, isn't that how the saying goes? At any rate, thanks for the ridealong. Happy trails!

@Zulutime44 5 месяцев назад

Interesting. I compare this to what I saw there in 1967-68, over 50 years ago. Parker and the AZ strip up to the dam are 10 times the size in population and built environments. However, the northern stretch of the California side you drove through in this video looks pretty much the same as it did 50 years ago, semi-rural.

@richardl.7390 Год назад

Crossroads Campgroung looks a lot like the campground south of Bombay Beach along the Salton Sea on US Rte 111 in Southern California. I stopped there twice in 2017 and 2018 in July and it was gawdawful HOT. I was literally alone in the campground but the Ranger made me pay full price for a site with no commodities. California is expensive and the personnel is rude towards visitors. Anyway I love your videos ! CHEERS ! RICHARD

Big Bend Resort has a restaurant on the water; it's behind the store that's usually closed. It's a breakfast and lunch spot and was closed for several years. Decent Pizza...

That park you called bulldog I think is bullfrog. And you forget to mention that Parker dam is the deepest dam in the world!

@Hi_Mommy953 Год назад

Yeah that great big canal that goes from just above Parker dam headed towards California actually it's going to lake Matthews the canal has been dry long time remember last time you were there it was dry all the canals coming off of the Colorado River in California a very very low especially the one that goes to Indio Coachella valley canal

I kno you like the scenery there Russ. But I prefer more greenery, trees an the like. Once you get away from the river there, it looks like Mars. Right now in southern West Virginia the Fall folage is in full glory and breath taking.....just not a fan of what's coming next.

Not many tortoises left because of the off-roaders. They took a bunch of burros off the reservations on both sides because they were getting hit by cars and had to be put down.

@SenatorBulworth Год назад

Is the railroad bridge still in service, Russ? What railroad company? Since there is no industry around there, is the only employment tied to recreation (or government)? Is Lake Havasu becoming more popular than Lake Mead?

@Scott_Bee Год назад

The bridge is still in service. See the train crossing weekly.

Needles (BNSF) and Parker (AZ-CA) have a Railroad presence and Needles (BNSF) has the Amtrak. There are some Industries scattered throughout the area.
