St George, UT to Riverside, CA in 3 Minutes

Uploaded by TalkinGoat on Mar 15, 2011
This is a Time Lapse video of me driving my semi truck from St. George, UT to Riverside CA. I used my HTC Evo and the LapseIt Android App to record about 7 hours driving at 1 frame per 5 seconds, I produced the video with Windows Movie Maker played back at 1 frame per 0.05 seconds.
St. George is the last big town on I-15 South in Utah. So, the video is only playing for a few seconds before we are in Arizona and the beautiful Virgin River Canyon. The sun was still coming up when I drive through the canyon and the images are a little dark :( Then, we cross the desert mountains of Nevada and into Las Vegas to stop for fuel. Continuing South, we enter California and the long, straight, but deceptively steep climbs and decents of the Mojave Desert area. Then, one last decent into probably the furthest South snow capped mountains I have ever seen and into Riverside.
I planned on recording all the way to my destination, San Diego. But, the phone was spending all afternoon, in the direct sunlight, suction cupped to my lower windshield. The HTC Evo has this battery saving feature that if the phone/battery gets up to a certain temperature, it will stop charging to let the battery cool. The sun never let the phone cool and my battery died before I made it to San Diego. That's the reason for the abrupt ending in the recording.

@StinkenAL It was I-15 then to I-215. The phone overheated from the direct sunlight and stopped charging (so the battery does not get damaged). The phone's battery eventually died and I didn't get to record all the way to San Diego. I was born and raised up in the Central Valley between Bakersfield and Fresno and I am wekk aware of the summer heat lol. *in my best surfer dude accent* "It's a dry heat"
