I like the video but I disagree that this is the most scenic drive in North America. You should have took this video in the spring on a sunny partially cloudy day. Not some depressing and ugly winter day. But even in the Spring, it isn't the most scenic. It's on the list of most scenic.

@MrZulu2065: I agree, it's not *the* most scenic ride (my personal favorite is the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier Nat'l Park), but you'll very hard pressed to find a freeway more scenic than this. Perhaps I-70 through Colorado, Trans-Canada 1 approaching the Canadian Rockies, or I-80 over the Sierra Nevada can definitely take the title of most scenic freeways, but I suppose it all comes down to personal preference. Thanks for watching!

@LorenzoMoore1000: And thank you for watching. I will be releasing an edited version of this video in the coming months. To get an idea of what it may look like, see the featured video on my homepage (US 101 thru Hollywood).

The TV series "MacGyver" was shot in BC for a four-year period from 1987-1991. An episode from Season 3 entitled "The Widowmaker" was shot in and around Squamish.

@dherrera96:  Wow, you left me scratching my head on that fact. I honestly would have never known that, had you not mentioned it on here. Thanks for interesting trivia about MacGyver!

Brent - may I suggest you head south of the border and do the Rumarosa Highway between Tecate and Mexicali.

Exit 3 is actually a left-side exit.
