Every State West of Ohio, contiguous USA
On September 2nd, I will be leaving for my 17 day road trip west. Here is a "mostly" correct map of where I am going. I have adjusted the route slightly to avoid some toll roads. All stops are still correct, except I will be stopping in Eugene OR to visit a friend.
A: Home
B: Taliesin Preservation, WI (just passing through)
C: Mount Rushmore, SD
D: Devils Tower, WY
E: Bowman, ND. Nothing there, just a placeholder so I don't miss a state.
F: Glacier National Park, MT
G: Mount Saint Helens, WA
H: Crater Lake, OR
I: Redwood National Park, CA
First Blue Dot: Manchaster, CA. Placeholder, may hit up the beach
Second Blue Dot: Bodega Bay, CA, also may go see a beach
J: Yosemite National Park, CA
K: Death Valley, CA
L: Parker, AZ. Looking for Saguaro Cactus
M: Grand Canyon, AZ
Red Dot: Vermilion Cliffs National Monument, AZ
Orange Dot: Zion National Park, UT
N: Bryce Canyon, UT
O: Craters of the Moon National Park, ID
P: Yellowstone National Park, WY
Q: Grand Teton National Park, WY
R: Pikes Peak, CO (red letter for some reason)
A: Home, after hitting the last of the states I need.
This route will hit every state west of here.
Route Figures
Total Distance: ~8,700 miles
Total estimated drive time (google maps): 6 days, 8 hours
Time gone: 17 days
Estimating an average of 450 miles per day, after you take out the first day of only driving, and the last 2.5 of only driving.
