what about going down or up the old donner pass road summit by donner lake. theres guard rails on most of it but some spots doesnt have it and it gets so wet and icy

You think that's bad highway right now, you should have tried it in the '60s

Glenwood Canyon and rest of Colorado is a piece of cake compared to Red Mountain Pass. Here's this CZcams video short to see. You don't have anywhere in North America compared to this when no guardrails, drop-offs to 800 feet down whno guardrails. So picture in your mind of driving across this mountain pass highway after seeing this video short in a snowstorm at night with a moderate risk for avalanches. "White Knuckle! Red Mountain Pass Colorado, don't take your eyes off the road! #shorts@wheelinoutwest Also check out videos by a truck semi-truck driver that goes by his CZcams channel name of "Riding Shotgun" He has driven across Red Mountain Pass going north bound and as well going south bound but in summer months though. Yes, semi-trucks, charter buses, RV's as big as charter buses, and anything else go across this highway in summer months.

NOTHING IS MORE SCARY IN ALL CANADA AND ALL UNITED STATES THAN DRIVING ACROSS RED MOUNTAIN PASS/THE MILLION DOLLAR HIGHWAY IN SOuTHWESTERN COLORADO IN A SNOWSTORM LET ALONE A BLIZZARD. Hardly any guardrails in this 23 mile mountain pass highway road. Three/four miles south of Ouray it drops off to around 800 FEET DOWN where's there's no guardrails. The highest avalanche paths per mile in all of Canada and the United States combined. Rock slides happened, and in summer mud slides in or after thunderstorms. Deer, mountain sheep, and mountain goats to avoid there sometimes. It is only the tenth most dangerous mountain pass highway in the world for the above reasons. Yet Colorado Department of Transportation (snowplowing, avalanche debris removal, and road repair responsibility) keeps this mountain pass highway open yearlong except for avalanches.

Red Mountain pass Monarch Pass Wolfcreek pass. Rabbit Ears Douglas pass All worse than Glenwood Canyon 😊

“Must” dangerous interstate? There was nothing in the video to support your claim. Of the ten most dangerous interstates in the U.S. I-70 ranks #8. Perhaps you should put down the camera and focus on driving.

Nah... It's nice in this video... Show it when it's fuct.

Umm…. Where is the scary part in the video? Bumps in the road? Well, that’s pretty much every road with some age to it.

That stretch isn’t even close to the most dangerous section of I70 in Colorado, if driving through Glenwood canyon scares you then don’t even attempt the stretch between the Eisenhower tunnel and Denver because the several miles of 6% down grade would definitely freak you out.

That's Glenn Canyon, and I remember when that section of road first opened back in 1992. I have been through there driving semi trucks hundreds of times.

Million mile highway to ouray will make you shit your pants if that’s scary

This is a cake walk. Dangerous? Try US Highway 2 out of Kalispell, MT in the winter. No worries, I remember when I first got my drivers license too lol.

Oh the humanity

Lol cute 😂😂 come drive through Minnesota

Ugh

Speed bumps on an interstate. Hmm! Speed control.

Purpose of this video was?????

😂❤❤😂🎉

It's about how rough the pavement is there, watch the video.

Glenwood canyon, right by No Name. Driven hundreds of times 👍

I crossed the U.S. by land only once. Took I-70, and damn, crossed the Rockies at night.

I drove it I fear it respect it and hate it

It's not snowing, what's the big deal?

If i-70 going to Colorado scares you then you don't need to drive through there that ain't nothing

I've traveled through there three times, saw Rams crossing the highway the last time. Being next to that net catching the boulders is next level scary

Sure, but not exactly through the Glenwood Springs corridor

Yeah right. Go try the stretch of US 550 from Durango to Ouray CO then get back to me.

But is it worth it because I heard a lot of bad reviews that it doesn't last long!

Nice thanks how many times did you have to go over it ?? And how many cans did you use cause they got in Chicago 😅😂

The usual passport bros looking for their foreign “wives”

Why not

Very beautiful but I found in USA the road is flat this can be very danger while turning in curve. This is called banking, and it's done to prevent cars from sliding off the road at high speeds. When you're driving in a straight line, all the energy of the vehicle is aligned with the direction of travel. If you were to slam on the brakes, you'd decelerate in a straight line. However, when you're going around a curve, your energy becomes compound. It's not just in a straight line in front of you, but also away from the center of the curve. If you were going around a curve, and the road suddenly turned to ice, you'd continue moving forward, but also outward along the radius of the curve. The banking is done to offset this outward energy and help cars stay on the road - without the banking, taking even a large turn will run the risk of the vehicle sliding left or right, since the amount of friction between the road and the tires is finite, and can be overwhelmed by sufficient speeds.

Is so peaceful there my mom loves traveling in Colorado is the best place to go when you need some peace

It is not the most dangerous highway! Lived there my whole life-just gotta be smart. Don’t ride the brakes and keep speed down!

The Glenwood Canyon even more fun when it was 2 lane YEE HA

I love driving it, in the day time in the summer ...

Whoa!😮😎

I-70 is crazy not fun at all.

I went through this highway

I came to Avon to work with my dad yesterday at 8:00

I drove that canyon for 6 months. Once saw 6 dead bodies in 7 work days. All were single car wrecks. A lot of sleep deprived drivers, I suppose. Otherwise, a pretty drive.

Looks like a great road 👍👍 Does not appear dangerous 🤔🤔

Why is it dangerous?

I drove this once! Yup, ONCE! As it was snowing. Never again

Pennsylvania and Louisiana roads are worse.

I did this drive on my first week out of school not fun lol 😢

I was there last year once you pass denver get ready o went all the way to grand junction it was amazing but scary

truly a feat of engineering. Is this around Glenwood Canyon?

I was lucky enough to drive through Aspen on a snowy night. Whole thing looked like Santa’s Village. All those nice houses on the mountain side.

Making want to reconsider driving this stretch to Pittsburgh from Portland. That scenery is just beautiful
