I Would take at lest 3 days, could spend all 3 just on the Cascade Hwy through the Cascade Mountains. Lots of camping in Newhalem on the west side. Big campground in the National Park, never have had problems finding a site there even on 4th of July. Next campground near Ross Lake usually...

I would defiantly take 20 over the Cascade Highway through Winthrop, lots of camping and scenery up there. Follow the Columbia River South on 97 to Bridgeport where you can catch 194 to Grand Coulee Dam. From here continue on 174 to Wilbur and catch 2 into Spokane, the back way. From Spokane...

Viewed eclipse from the Lone Tree Campground along the Yakima River. http://mikedunnphoto.blogspot.com/2017/08/solar-eclipse-2017-yakima-river-canyon.html

No internet at Kodachrome because that CG is surrounded by high cliffs. You must take the trail up the side of those cliffs to the top at the entrance of the CG. Great view into CG and surrounding area.

Hey were enjoying your adventure with you. Nice to be able to put a face with your post now that we have met you. Merry Christmas on this day and stay warm.

57 days total for 2016 of cause 49 of those days were at one time camping the deserts of the Southwest, so there were only 3 individual outings. Current Blog of trip below. http://mikedunnphoto.blogspot.com/2016/12/southwest-zig-zaging.html

Sorry to hear about your temporary set back. I'm going through the same thing as I write. Root canal next week tuesday. Lucky for me, my tooth problems happen a couple weeks after getting back home from our 7 week Fall trip in the SW where we met you at VOG. Had a great time there meeting...

http://mikedunnphoto.blogspot.com/2016/12/southwest-zig-zaging.html I finally finished editing the photos and put my blog together of our 2016 Fall Southwest trip. Also added some additional photos of the VOG get together. Hope we cross paths in the future. Click the above link to the rest...

Thanks for the heads up. I think I have repaired it.

Just a couple months ago we zig-zagged through the Southwest and also met a few new “Wandering West” contributors, at Valley of the Gods, for three days. What a great time we had putting faces with message contributors. We traded travel adventures and discussed the techniques and maintenance of...

We made it back Sunday to the wet Northwest, a bit cooler then 90 degree Arizona. Lower 50's for Halloween. Thanks hoyden for the great get together you put together. Enjoyed meeting all of you and the trading of travel stories. Gave me some new ideas. May take awhile, but I will get my blog...

Have rerouted already a few times to meet other dates and we haven't left the driveway yet. But were on our way tomorrow through Idaho to Colorado, across S. Arizona to Joshua Tree NP, CA and then rebounding back to VOG instead of heading home through, CA. Might not get there until...

Will be a great trip. We have done the Pacific to Atlantic trip 3 times and Great Lakes 2 times. Last one was Washington to Maine in 2013. My wife's family lives in the Smoky Mt's . ( a must visit in fall) Learned to find a campsite Friday early and stay through Saturday. Durning the Fall...

Enjoyed your report through two of my favorite National Parks, Rosevelt NP where we had a bunch of bison walk right pass our campsite in the park and up at Glacier NP, guess I was hiking to slow cause a mt goat passed me on a narrow cliff trail. Scared the hell out of me. Cliff wall on one...

Hoyden, No that was not my bus, I have an Eagle, a bit smaller then a bus, but in that area I saw some people atop some formations. I also hiked down a canyon, but did not go far, just a few mile to find a good spot to photograph a formation. That may not be considered hiking to some.

[sharedmedia=gallery:albums:1056] Forgive me, I'm not sure how to do this, add photos, but here goes. We will be in Colorado and Arizona during Sept and Oct. and may be able to rethink our route through the SW. Thats a great area Bluff and along the San Juan River. We did take that route in...

Possible camp areas

We noticed that last Fall on our way to upper Michigan, lots of small towns in North Dakota had campgrounds reasonable and empty. Only one town was noisy, after the friday night homecoming football game, a bunch of kids came to the park for night games and were loudly running all over the park...
