Little known fact about this stretch: the reo speedwagon song riding the storm out is about driving down pass from woody p to CoS
I drove that video trail for 35 years. Lived in Woodlad Park all those years. What wonderful memories. How I miss this little town and my mountain house there.
Colorado Springs has a lot of tourist attractions. You could spend a few days just seeing the sites. But beyond Woodland is my playground. Less cars, people and open land. Thankfully that part of Colorado is still untouched by urban development and masses of people interested in turning the state into what they left! Thanks for the ride Kyle❣
This is one of my fav drives you have taken Colorado is so beautiful
I live in Aurora and my mom lives in woodland Park, so this drive is very familiar to me. You make me wanna go see my momma now!
67 is a lot shorter and quicker. I live in Westcreek.
@@john65645 that's what my brother tells me. They always call me "long way" cause even if its a 5 min drive I take a 10 min way. Haha. I followed my brother home from her house once and he was right, way shorter.
After seeing all the videos of I-70 going though the Rocky Mountains, this is a nice change of pace. Hopefully US Route 24 will be as scenic as I-70.
Thank you! I wanted to take US-24 because I've taken I-70 so many times and done videos over the years. This was a great drive, as you'll see in the coming videos.
As a Dutchman I like to see people driving through mountainous regions! Especially now that I am not able to travel to your country due to COVID! In my country, which is mostly flat, we have basically one real mountain, the Vaalserberg, which is 323,4 metres (1056 feet) high. Of course, you can drive to places like Germany to see real mountains, but they are covered with trees and other vegetation. I like the bare mountains, with no vegetation. In Europe, you have to drive to countries like Austria or Switzerland to see that.
I’m a Dutch American (100%). My grandparents came over in the early 1900’s. I live in Woodland Park and never get sick of this drive and the views. No photos nor video captures it completely. It’s breathtaking.
Just found you. Luv the I70 by Evergreen Parkway. Love the US24. Woodland can't be beat. Amazing food in Old Colorado Springs.
Loved this! Not living near there now, but of all the stretches of road I've driven in my life I know and love this one the best.
So many memories
For those new to the area, watch your speed and keep a very careful watch out for radar along Hwy 24 from Old Colorado City all the way up to Divide (in both directions). It's one of the most notorious stretches in the state.
I got caught with the radar back in 1970
Along that stretch
Ute Pass can be pretty treacherous at times in the winter. Skinny Taco in Bust is a great stop to eat if you want the best tacos around!
This is my fav out of all your videos the drive is breath taking and pikes peak in the background is perfect
Enjoy riding on my side-by-side outside of Woodland Park.
I rode that road on my my bike one time. One time and one time only. Scary as hell.
czcams.com/video/bPu6icb2h1M/video.html Nowhere to go for a bike.
Nice scenic road and music selection. Drove the other way from WP to CS a few months ago on vacation. Beautiful area.
There were some fantastic views on this drive. Had fun watching it.
Love seeing more of the USA through your videos. Thank you Kyle!
Greets from the Netherlands (it's so flat here, so different).
Thank you very much Paul!

I've Lived Up in This District 45+ YEARS We Would take Kindly to You SLOWING Down .... You went through Traffic in The Springs Slower Than You Drove the pass! Slow the Mountain drive that FOLKS could enjoy it! It's decent! But if You Can't Hold Your lane You're Drivin TOO FAST For My Neighbors sake! Welcome to GOD'S COUNTRY Where We AREN'T IN The City Hurry!
Very nice video of a highway in the US ....It somewhat made up for our missed visit this year.
Please treat us to more such enjoyable videos. Thanks.
Love the music again. Love that I live here!!
It's hard to type out a comment here without sounding like an absolute "Homer", so I'll just say... Great video! 😄
Thank you! Every time I visit Colorado I seem to find myself in shadow of Pikes Peak, there’s something there that keeps driving me to come back. I love the feeling I get when I’m in Colorado Springs!
Born and raised in Colorado. Not from Woodland Park, but it is my favorite town in Colorado!
Thanks for the video.
More attention is paid to WB 70 west of Denver, but WB US 24 west of Colorado Springs looks like it gets you to more dramatic views sooner.
Oh, you’re in for some dramatic views in the next few episodes 😎
i go through that pass pretty often and have taken a need to race through it for some reason. used to take me 25-30 minutes to get through, now its 10-15. something about those sharp corners makes me feel alive, i would not recommend doing this but its my personal little race track and its fun.
Judging on the northwest route, will we see a Great Basin crossing of I-80 and US-50 or will you follow a southwestern route home
You should’ve stopped at Rudy’s BBQ. It’s really good. I’ve done the Manitou incline twice it’s really neat. Look it up sometime
Don't catch it on a Friday or Sunday. Rv, camper gridlock.
I've never driven on that stretch of US 24. Anything between Colorado Springs and the 285 junction south of Fairplay is a mystery to me.
Also, what kind of precautions did you take on this trip? Just wondering.
I mean I’m in my car for 80% of the day or more so I’m not out in the public exposing myself very much. I just go in a store to get gas or any supplies I need. For food I’m usually ordering through the drive thru on trips or ordering delivery at the hotel through doordash. Very little exposure going on behind the scenes of these trips.
@3:10and now kids if u look to your right you see cave of the winds

US-24 is a serious violation of U.S. route numbering, similar to US-96.
Great video, brings me back to the times I lived in Colorado Springs, driving up to Breckenridge every now and then during winter times :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
