2K21 (EP 1) Interstate 5 in Southern Oregon: Ashland to Grants Pass

[coreysmith]

Oregon looks like a nice state. This is like a road trip because we don't know where we will end up but we find out as we go along.

Lovely video. From what I've seen on YouTube, Oregon seem to take care of their highways much better than most U.S. states. Very high quality asphalt :)

Good start to the season. I'll second the comments about the fire season....2020's was bad for the whole West Coast, not just CA. And watch for Bigfeet if you're driving at night....

My wife and I drove this in 2015 as we drove from San Antonio TX to Seattle. Outstanding...

Thank you Kyle, nice work brother! I'm from Gold Hill Oregon, live in hillsboro right now but working on retiring back HOME in the coming months, so glad, so homesick! We need the country to know about our blessed part of the world, the state has ignored the rogue Valley long enough! Southern Oregon is a better beautiful representative of this awesome state and NOT the concrete cities, amen! Godspeed beloveds, sending you my best love light from Oregon lorna pappe terrachristan

It was a good video i ride the bus that goes from Medford to Grant's Pass all the time and my name is Kyle as well... Lmao

Rolling over Siskiyou is even more entertaining.

I have been through Oregon twice with Greyhound. Both times was through the night. It is amazing how fast the climate changes.

First trip was from Vancouver BC to San Francisco

Second trip was from Vancouver BC to Phoenix AZ

I live in Grants Pass, so it's great to see the town featured in this video.

This was a month before this whole area / state got torched by wild fires.

Lived in gp in 1987 fun times. Now I'm in Missouri 2, 0000 miles away

Fantastic video. Oregon is such a wonderful state. I love the redwood coast area as well. One day may you do a redwood hwy video (US 101 or 199)?

[dwoodpart]

Wow! You're not taking a break in terms of posting new videos even after the 2000 season finale!

So you're focusing on the Northwest this season? Hopefully it'll be as remarkable as last season's journey thought the American Southwest :)

Thank you for the trip. I moved from Portland about 26 years ago. I ended up about 30 mi north of Sacramento. For years I traveled this route to visit relatives and take care of rental property in Vancouver Washington. Since then I've sold off the Vancouver real estate and a number of my relatives are gone now so there isn't such a desire anymore to travel that way. I remember times when the snow was deep enough to close I-5 through the summit. But you could always find ways around so that wouldn't slow me down. Highway 99 worked. I had planned on one day returning to Oregon and maybe live in the Grants pass or Medford area but it's a lot more expensive than it used to be because of all those crazy Californians. So for the meantime I purchased a retirement home in Magalia California where it has a similar climate to Southern Oregon with occasional snow in the winter and a lot of sunshine in the summer.

Just found your channel! Can’t wait till you head out east and go on mine.

We were just there last week visiting Mt Ashland Ski. ACTUALLY, 5 is
SO boring At Siskiyou summit where Mt Ashland rd comes out to 5
we took old US99 back to our Rv in Phoenix and all the way to Grants
Pass on our way home (US199 to Crescent City) Old 99 is the coolest
road it takes a leisurely path thru rural Oregon and you can enjoy the
sights of the backcountry along the way.

Haven't been through there since the late 70ts early 80ts with my grand parents that lived in Myrtle creek Cayonville area

[trailcameralakeloon]

When I grow up I want to drive in Oregon
