Alpine Highway 4 in Calif

This is 15 minutes of our 1:35 ride to the Eastern end of highway 4. We do pass through a few areas where the trees are turning to fall colors. Even at 720p it pixelates at full screen for me, the raw footage wasn't nearly as bad.

Alpine Highway 4 Part 4 - YouTube
The lead rider is Larry who we met at the HU rally, we had never ridden it before and chose to follow as he had.
I used some non-copyrighted music, you may want to mute it.

The is a pretty area to ride!

To embed the video, in the editing toolbar is an icon that looks like film. Third icon from the right. Click on it and paste/type the URL to the video.

The pixilation is the YouTube compression. It doesn't handle the contrast of bright sunlight to shadows very well.

Very nice ! This is a part of California I've never visited, only the Bay area, the redwood forests and the Napa valley - and it's been something like 20 years .

Kind regards,

Thank you, I was making it more difficult than it was. I was looking for a forum type code in the Youtube manager page.

If anyone is really bored, here is a link to all six 15 minute videos I ended up breaking the ride into. https://www.youtube.com/user/Grey1one/playlists

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing. At first I thought you were riding a single track one way road since I didn't see any center line markings. But then two oncoming cars passed, so it must be two way.

Nice video. What was the elevation in them there hills?

Sonora Pass (el. 9,624 ft. / 2,933 m.) is the second-highest highway pass in the Sierra Nevada

Ebbetts Pass, named after John Ebbetts, (el. 8,736 ft or 2,663 m) is a high mountain pass through the Sierra Nevada range in Alpine County, California.

There are also a couple around 7700 if I'm remembering right.

I noticed that elevation changes really don't show well in the video for some reason, maybe it's the fisheye lens.
