17 Days Until I Hit The Road
February 6, 2019
Previously on Many Roads One Camera was Olympic NP but now it is time to get on down the road. Next stop is North Cascades NP. Admittedly I don’t know a lot about this park except that the Columbia Gorge is within the park and that there is supposed to be a lot of waterfalls.
From North Cascades I am heading to Glacier NP. This park is one of the parks that I extended stays at some of my previous stops and hopefully the road to the sun will be open. This is going to be a really close one though. Right now it seems that the snow storms up north just seem to not want to stop.
Now I get to the most popular park in the US and also the oldest national park in the whole world, Yellowstone NP. This area was a very hard to find a campground. I finally found one in Gardiner that is just outside the north entrance. I was also having problems finding a campground near Jackson, WY so that I could spend time at Grand Teton NP. Things got complicated so I talked to the people in Gardiner about doubling the length of my stay and they said there would be no problem with that but gave me the phone number for a campground for a campground in Grand Teton. That campground was able to accommodate me so I should be able to enjoy my time at both parks. Believe me when I start to do any reviews of campgrounds the one in Gardiner (Rocky Mountain RV Park) is off to a good start.
From there I am heading to Badlands NP. On the way I am hoping to visit Mount Rushmore and Custer national monument. Badlands NP is another park that I don’t know a lot about. When I lived in Illinois I had a neighbor that loved to go there so we’ll see how it goes.
After that it is just kind of meandering my way back to Jacksonville with a stop in my hometown of Canonsburg, PA to visit a childhood friend who is also an ex brother-in-law and also visiting some of my cousins that still live in the area. There is a national park in Ohio that I just heard about while watching many many YouTube videos, Cuyahoga Valley National Park and maybe I will try to stop there for a few days.
Well wish me luck. I know that this is aggressive and intense but I hope that it will be fulfilling and exciting as well. And I hope that I can get a few good pictures to put up on my gallery to outshine the images that I already have there from past trips.
