Route 66 from Victorville to Helendale

so, so good i enjoyed this

I drove for Roadway in Adelanto,Ca and would run this route to Barstow to the railyard. This route was always my favorite and especially at night. I use to pull over and just stare off into the stars, the sky was so clear. I drove this route for over 10 years and had always seen these sights but never knew the history behind them. This video is awesome, thanks so much, makes me long to drive cross country to drive that route just one more time.

awesome video. I grew up in the High Desert, its nice to see a video that's not completely shitting on VV. I really like it here. Clear skies, nice mornings and crazy weather changes.

Typically I jump on 15 to make time to the PCH. Turned around in SB. Homeless everywhere. On a MC thats not safe camping.
Next time I'll hit this section and just stay in East Cabgoing north.
This video really helps.

It's funny when we shot our video on Helendale some people mentioned to us when convincing people to move there they'd blindfold them during this drive so that they woke up and saw the town itself and weren't worried about where this road was actually going, since it looks like the middle of nowhere.

dear freind Fantastis video ,Very good, thank you greeting from amazonpawan

Your videos are my favorites

~sigh~ 🙄 How come I've lived within an hour of this hwy for the last 50 years and this is the first time I've ever heard of it? 😂

Should see the old cemetary in Ore Grande-goes back to the 1800s with a lot of wooden crosses- looks like boot hill

I worked in Helendale and drove there from Apple Valley! Very familiar with that road

What is open now, since the pandemic began? Would love to make a trip.

Thanks for the interesting music to go with the stories and scenery . I drove part of Route 66 westbound to Castle Air Force Base in 1971 from Texas . Everything looks so "corporate" now , no individual style . Art is one area committees are less than useful .

66 is one of my favorites.

Thank you. I lived in Silver Lakes for a short while as a youth in the late 70's and had no idea that was Route 66, very interesting.

The cheapest gasoline sign was not a spoof !!! In the late 50's and early 60's my mom and aunt would talk back and forth about if they were going to put a whole $2.00 worth of gas in the car and if it would hold that much ! Because it already had a 1/4 tank !

I've driven this I have a friend who lives in Silver Lake on a golf course, only thing about living there is they have to drive to Victorville for a big grocery store. I go this way to Palm Springs into victorville and apple valley to yucca valley which is near PS.

Necesito esta vía desde el condado de Orange,cuando lográremos esto?

Another winner. Now on to the next suggested video.

Excellent video... glad I subscribed... thank-you for the great historical content and production!

I’m kicking myself for never having gone in that Route 66 museum. I love the history my hometown has, it’s just very sad to see what most of it has become.

Lived in victorville 2 20 years and applevally 7 year's the desert really grows on you . my son and family still live there

Even seen dale Evans one time in a restruant and seen Riy at a gas station filling up his truck. What great memories too bad the are both gone now.

I took this road back in '89 to visit ole Wool in Silver Lakes, before he went back to his roots in Ohio. Sadly, Ole Wool passed on in 2007, but the memories remain fresh & happy.

Why was there no mention about the cement plant after the museum? Interesting you left it out.

Driven hundreds of times a great drive

Cool area, I really like it! Thank you for sharing the history of these places.

The museum is east of the 15 fwy,not south of it.

I'm remodeling that dealership, tomorrow, what a trip!

The bridge is also pretty interesting, in that, we seem to have a lot of cold cases that begin under it

I saved one of their ostriches when dogs tore open a secion of fence, and got it back to her.

What a trip, i live near elmers old place, and you still educated me about little things i didnt know about the area. Far out.

The used car shop could have been the one in the movie Psycho ???

80s flashback !! 🍺 😎 👍

Be very careful down by D street
You might get robbed stabbed or bitten

Do you have any pictures or knowledge of the Husky Truck Stop and Cafe in Barstow??? I stopped there a few times back in the early 1980's.

What is the clearence for the steel railroad bridge?

Nicely done!

Did this January 2….. got to Emma Jeans 10 minutes too late for lunch, sadly.

I spent a month there visiting. I'm from ontario canada

Cross eyed cow pizza is really good!

You're sure right about those ostrichs' capable of a severe bite. We had our dachsund with us when visiting and one of those birds ate the whole (small) dog. My family has never been the same. We don't blame the bird.
