    Beautiful video! I got a question because I dont usually drive mountains, do u need to put the car on low gear when coming down or does automatic handle it?

      Thanks for watching! :) Let me share my experience. I was driving a Jeep Compass in automatic mode to Mt. Blue Sky and had no issues while coming down. However, I think it depends on the type of car and how steep the mountain drive is. When I was driving down Mt. Washington in New Hampshire in automatic mode, I smelled the brakes burning and had to take short breaks, there were stopovers just to check the brakes, and it was recommended to use a low gear. I think new cars nowadays can handle it well in automatic mode.

      It’s safe to drive, there are multiple overlooks where you can stop and enjoy the view :))
