At 3:56 you shot ahead 1/2 mile. Had you kept the video onin about ten seconds my property was on the right. That 'pretty big mountain" called Eagle mtn. Surprised you didn't see mtn sheep when you were running the drone. The River seldom freezes fully. Too swift.
That little house on that island 5:24 Little slice of heaven right there!
Hardy Bridge was featured in the Kevin Costner film, The Untouchables
1998, when I was 58 years old, a friend and I flew to Portland, Maine bungeed our camping gear on our bicycles and rode back to Anacortes, Washington. Took us three months, 3600 miles. Rode Highway 2. The way the towns are spaced in Montana, it seems like they were about 30 miles apart, you either went 30 miles and cut your day short, or had to commit to 60 or 90. We didn’t want to camp out in the open prairie so we usually stayed in motels in Montana. It was 108° when we rode into Havre, Montana at noon.Seems like we stayed in Shelby and then Cut Bank. From Cut Bank we rode through Browning and spent that night in St. Mary because our bicycle maps routed us through Glacier Park.I just subscribed so I can travel vicariously through you.
amazing story. thanks for sharing
Thank you for posting this! My grandparents and then my parents owned one of the homes on the left at 1:56 from some time in the 70s (I believe) until my parents sold in 2007. I have the best memories of living out there on the river! And yes, the drives in the middle of winter could get brutal!! Then there was summer...we were either dealing with the fires or flooding. My little sister and I would call that mountain with the "steps" across the river "our" mountain and it was such a relief to see after driving home from either Helena or Great Falls. We knew we were home! 💛🥰 I have so many stories about black bears getting into our trash, mountain lions resting under our neighbor's tree (the "Good Luck Camp" side)...I could go on and on! I went to elementry school in Craig, waaaaayyyyyy back before the schoolhouse was the firehouse! :) This brings back so many memories for me! Again, thank you for recording and sharing this!!! :)
haha epic! this made the video so much more enjoyable :)
This is why Charlie Pride liked Montana. So beautiful! I lived in Great Falls.
I lived in Cut Bank Montana in 1970- 72 I can remember alot about that area and mostly the people and lifestyle and it is definitely COLD in the winter...Thanks For the memories
Spring is the very best time to go through there. I drive through there 2 times a month.
Awe how sweet to wish everyone a Happy Mother's Day.
Yes Happy Mothers Day To All Moms
That aerial view of bridge, river, and railroad .. beautiful...
Great Falls, "the Electric City" because of the the Missouri River waterfalls & it's 5 hydroelectric dams - Black Eagle, Rainbow, Cochrane, Ryan, & Morony dams; Giant Springs, it's large fresh water spring; and home and resting place of famous western cowboy artist CM Russell
I live in Washington state near Seattle, I drove truck for 30 years delivery of groceries to stores in Montana and love the state it is vast. I loved the winter driving was dangerous but exciting too. Covered the whole state on my job. Retired now and would love to drive the state in my car.
I drive this all the time, my favorite drive
Yep.... fire smoke sure can take the crystal out of clear. Thanks for going that far north, as it worked! Beautiful country. Stay Well😊
Oh shoot! You skipped from the Vaugh exit to the Shelby exit! Ya missed Conrad, where I live!
I just found you on youtube. I LOVE all of the tours you take us on. Some, many of us would have never seen otherwise! THANK YOU!
24:41 A friend of ours lives one over to your right, on 5th street.
You need to go to Fort Benton is the birthplace of Montana and stop on 87 here "Missouri River Overlook" and put your drone up there and get some beautiful footage there. The Missouri river twist and turns there its the best viewing ever.
Hardy creek bridge was where the Untouchables was filmed. Kevin Costner, Sean Connery.
Yeah, that's the bridge where Elliot Ness, the Untouchabes, and the Mounted Police intercept a bootleg whiskey shipment in the 1987 film. As for Shelby, one of its claims to fame is that it hosted a Jack Dempsey prize fight back in 1924. That drive up US-2 into West Glacier is breathtaking , though the last time I did it was during a blizzard so far less fun lol. If you do stop in Kalispell be sure to walk around the historic downtown.
16:21, That is Great Falls International Airport off to your left. Malmstrom Air Force Base is on the east end of town several miles from there.
I know the fishing has to be great there! I love how we do miles with you, the camera switches for a split second and boom, we are there.
Fort Benton is where all the Trappers back the day went to sell and trade their skins. That's where boats would take them down the river to all the states a big trading post.
I’m sitting 9 miles east of Browning and enjoying the view thanks for the ride it’s awesome
Excellent, Excellent...... I wish I was driving that road for sure..... AAA+ all the way....
We stayed at that campground in Cut Bank about 8 days ago. Not a particularly aesthetically pleasing campground but the new owners were hard at work making improvements. We escaped the midday heat hanging out in the park by the creek just below the campground. If by chance you side trip up 89 to St Mary’s there is some major construction work going on with delays.
Just before you got back on the highway there was a turn to the right. It’s a historical marker, where Lewis and Clark were.
Unfortunately I can't drive so this is a way to see the world in your car thanks
This is the best of best. Really enjoyed the scenic and beautiful landscape. Wanna go and drive there 😊😊😊
Glad you enjoyed it
@rvertv already watched several times. Thank YOU again from Seoul. 😀
This ride is so beautiful. I don’t have a favorite season to take it; maybe spring.
@ 7:23 that's the Gary Cooper Bridge you're approaching. Gary Cooper was born and raised in Montana.
Regularly in the winter , the coldest place in the U.S. is Cut Bank , Montana !
Thank you, Russ, for the only summer vacation I'm getting. It's too bad you couldn't continue north into Canada to Calgary. I'd buy you lunch, coffee, beer ... whatever.
Thanks Russ for going the extra mile to get out of those smokey skies! Thanks RVerTV for the Virtual Vacation Tour 2020 🤗👍💥🌺🏵🚐🎼
They did make a movie at Hardy Bridge - that's the bridge at the climax gunfight of the Untouchables.
The bridge at 11:00 min. Was in the movie the untouchables. Canadian us border scene
I'm from Montana. You should drive all the way around Flat Head Lake.
Thanks for taking me along! It's so Amazing. Stay Safe!
Good thing four Cut Bank tire, or I would’ve mistaken that town for a half a dozen other towns in Montana and Wyoming.
What a beautiful ride. Thank you for taking us with you! Stay safe!
One of my favorite youtubers are based in Shelby. Welker Farms.
Went through there in 2022 on the 15. Now I want to go back and do the river road.
Love Cut Bank!!!
Next trip, go through fort Benton. It’s a very unique drive.
love everything
Beginning film, my Dads, Baumer Barnes, ranch was on the left side. That is where I was raised and rode that area by horseback many times.
Hi, Nancy! 😃 I went to school with several of your children in Craig many, MANY, years ago and I remember having spaghetti at your house once, too! My maiden name was Menish-Geryk. This video brings back A LOT of memories!! 💛 I hope you all are doing well! 😃
@@rachelledavid5975 Hi! How are you and how are your parents? Where do you live these days? We moved to Whitehall. MT where we have lived for 17 years. Chelsey lives here too. The other kids live in the state. We remember those fun days too, and I think that was somebody's birthday party when you were at our house. We are glad you have found memories of it and of Craig. We do too.
I have a facebook under my name do you?
Thank you for sharing 😊 My husband and I try to avoid interstate systems, not always possible.
Reminds me of driving the north side(Washington side) of the Colombia gorge west of The Dalles Oregon.
Love this MT tour you've taken us thru. We always drove Hwy 2 from ND-MN border, across ND, across MT, heading to Glacier with our kids. It's like seeing 2 different states named MT. & following I-15 reminds me of how Rt 66 follows I-40 across OK, TX, NM, AZ, & on into CA
Gold nugget?! I'm leaving for Hardy Bridge right now! Save me a spot at that picnic table, Russ.
HAVE DRIVEN THAT ROAD MANY TIMES AND THERE ARE MANY MANY MORE AREAS OF MONTANA THAT ARE BEAUTIFUL. NOW I LIVE IN HOBBS NEW MEXICO...I MISS IT , OH HEY I HAVE CAMPED BY THE RIVER IN THAT AREA AND YOU BARLEY HEAR THE TRAFFIC
north of Ulm on I-15 south of Great Falls there is an awesome buffalo jump.state park, not far off I-15. Really something..
When I was a kid I grew up on a ranch not far from the Buffalo jump . We used to always go there and shoot rattlesnakes , gofers in the summer. Hopefully in the next couple years I’m gona move back.
Moved from MN to Montana. Don’t regret the move.
Been in Montana five years now and that ride is still one of my favorites. Just not in winter LOL.
Recreation Road.....what an epic route? After watching yesterday's episode, I watched the same one that you did 5 years ago! How video quality has advanced!! Keep safe Russ
Just the calmness is worth the drive. Lot of hard work probably went in to make such a beautiful drive
I've done plenty of fishing right there in Craig on the river.
Thanks Russ, I'm so glad to know about Recreation Road. I'm pretty sure my mom went that way in her RV travels along the Missouri River. Lovely!
Howdy Russ! Safe travels to you sir👍
Sure hope retirement communities get your channel. Just fantastic scenery. Right there and up close!
That was a beautiful ride! Kudos's to you for capturing it. Thanks so much for sharing! Safe travels and keep em' coming.
I remember all your old videos. Been keeping up since the first video I remember on polishing a boat. Good ole Scooby :-) Take us to Glacier :-D.
You drove right by my house in Dutton off I 15! Great video as usual!
Been over the old highway many times and always enjoyed the drive in any weather I use to work on a ranch in Cascade which is the first small town after you leave Wolf Creek canyon and the hunting and worm drowning is very good
11:23 I stopped at the same spot at the Hardy bridge last year, unloaded my gyrocopter & took off from the road.
That was the prison. The AFB is East of Great Falls
Beautiful
Just when I thought I’ve seen all of Montana! Nope, thanks for the awesome video
Going To The Sun Road, through Glacier Nat'l Park, is closed at the Eastern end. The thing is, though, you drive over the road, and then turn around and drive back. So if you entered from the West you could see most of it (from both directions). I think it's one of the most beautiful roads in the US, and you certainly like beautiful roads (and you love showing them to us!) So you might consider it. Also, it's funny how you can drive a few miles north and drive right out of the smoke! Suddenly skies are blue! I wish I could do that here in California. The whole state now looks like LA did 40 years ago. I nearly forgot what color the sky is! 8^
That is the International airport not Mallstrom Air Force. base. Malistrom is on the east side of Great Falls

Good evening Russ, Awesome! It just keeps getting better and better! See You Soon.
Ugghh...It breaks my heart. Staying in an RV park with all the natural land around you. Why, Why??

Another great segment of the journey. Too cool..
Good morning Russ... Every state you go through seems to be " the beautiful one "
Thank You for another great ride!
I knew You would take us to Glacier National Park. Thank you, Russ.
Beautiful!!
That area is stunning. Saved it to my visit list. Can’t wait. Sometimes misfortune (smoke) can lead you to wondrous things. 😊❤️
I'm originally from ND and moved to Arizona. Thanks for shout out ND
Beautiful!
Yay love the ride
The bridge you crossed was used in the movie THE UNTOUCHABLS
Great ride!
I'm almost home. 😎 I have lived in Helena, Bozeman and Great Falls. If I knew you were here, I would have invited you for a BBQ.
What a gorgeous view by Hardy bridge. Love MT. Thanks for the video! 😊
Simply Beautiful!
I bet that road by the river is scary in the winter,if you slid off the road into the river!
THANKS
Loved all your videos Sir Russ...keep them coming!
Enjoying the ride.
Nice Journey
Beautiful country. Safe travels
