    We just visited Oatman, cute little town. It was fun to see your view of the town and what it has to offer. We showed mostly the scenic parts of our drive.

    Visited Oatman three years ago on a Route 66 road trip & was totally enchanted by the wild Burros. Such a sweet expression on their faces, especially when they hold up traffic for half an hour or so as they wander around waiting for visitors to feed them!

    Good video. It's Topock, an Indian word for "Bridge" (not top rock). I remember travelling old route 66 for years, and stopped at a lot of these places when they were jumping. From Barstow to Oklahoma City, our family travelled old 66. Getting gas at Whiting Brothers, , eating at restaurants no longer there, hotels, roadside attractions. Even paid to see the pet rattlesnakes in the pit east of Kingman, but that day in 78, they were all dead. Thank you for these great memories.

      Was just about to make the same comment Toe-Pac is how it's pronounced locally, however the intelligence of the local population in the area is just about the worst in America don't forget Topac is in Mohave County in the Mojave desert I also once heard Needles came to be because Hypodermic was well beyond the limited vocabulary of its founders. I had always assumed it was a joke however the longer I have been in the area I am really starting to think there may have been some truth behind it as there is with all stereo types

    Just got back from my own Route 66 trip. Love Oatman, Kingman and the that stretch of 66. I stayed at the El Travitor twice, this trip it was in the John Wayne room, right by where the map was being filmed, and the other time the window on that stagecoach was the window of my room. Cool stuff and great job!

    Omgosh...I’ve been through so many of these places years ago with my (late) husband 💙and three kids traveling across country. Hubby was from cally, I am from NC. He never ever wanted to sight see while traveling. Thanks for so many memories. He did let us stop to use the port-a-potties😂🤣

  • @dannyromero6068
    @dannyromero6068 6 лет назад

    Born on 66 in Kingman, raised in Bullhead, grew up going to Oatman, remember the Needles underpass, shot the hell out of the desert from Topock to Hackberry, infected w Necrotiizing Fasciitis workin cattle in Seligman where you ended day 2, had my life saved by amputating my leg at the Level 1 trauma center in '11 in Flag. I know all this country like the back of my hand. Only thing you missed was the Andy Devine history in Kingman where he was raised long before he was the Dukes sidekick. Very nice job. Love the channel

    In June I decided to go up the part in AZ from somewhere near lake havasu, up thru oatman, kingman and then went to flagstaff, then on to Zion national park, i did this alone and it was one of the best trips of my life! It was awesome up to Oatman, such a little neat place, I didn't have time to stop tho, I hope I can go again and spend more time checking out the spots...and Zion...oh, I think I left my heart in Zion...most beautiful place I have ever seen...btw...I almost lost my eyesight twice and now they are nearly perfect...I got to see it with these fixed eyes and I am so grateful to have been able too!

    when the film convoy was filmed, they had recently replaced the bridge crossing from needles California and the old one still stood nearby. It had been built as a temporary in the late 1950s, but stood into the early 1980s. it was only a single lane bridge, making oncoming traffic wait. It was also used to film the icon explosion and crash of Kris Kristoffersons truck at the end of the movie

  • @paulragu2417

    I remember Route 66 very well. My family was from Illinois. We moved to San Diego in ‘59. So, every Summer we would go to Illinois and see relatives, on Route 66. Both my sister and I have road signs that say Route 66. There was alway something to see. Where those big arrows are, is that also where the TeePees were? I think we stayed in them one night. I always bought a Indian beaded bracelet. I wore all the time. I really miss it, but we have wonderful memories.
