  • The Isolated Lost Coast of California

    The Isolated Lost Coast of California

    In my last post I said that we went back to our squatter’s site in Jackson State Forest, just east of Fort Bragg, CA. We were smarter about our second night of “guerrilla camping.” We still got up early and packed up before anything else, but this time we drove straight to the Fort Bragg…

    Adventures in Roof Top Tents

    When we left our nameless little campsite next to Mono Lake, Highway 395 immediately began to climb. And up at the top of the climb we found a little pulloff. With this view: Wow! Of course, I was also intrigued by something else: bumper stickers. They were all over the barrier of this parking lot.…

  • Getting to Moab

    After riding Grand Targhee we made tracks for Park City, UT. We spent a night at a lovely site outside of Swan Valley, ID, and then pressed on. We did stop briefly in Lava Hot Springs, Idaho, for a shower and soak at their public hot springs. $6 per person. I almost fell over at…

  • Are you sure this is Idaho?!?

    When we left Flathead Lake the day after Labor Day, the skies were dark and threatening. Kyle reminded us that all this weather was coming over from Idaho. Nonetheless, Idaho was the next state for us to explore. We set off towards Kalispell, and then took Highway 2 all the way to the State Line.…

  • Let’s Go To Idaho

We spent Labor Day Weekend at our friends Steve and Melissa’s cabin on Flathead Lake, as I mentioned before. We also got to…

  • Beautiful Bozeman

    We came up to Bozeman via West Yellowstone and Big Sky. A beautiful drive, and I was excited to see a new city in Montana. We have friends here, Brian and Sarah. Brian owns a bike/ski shop in Bozeman called the Gear Wizard, and they’ve lived in Bozeman for years now. We set up the truck…
