Welcome to my blog. As you know, I’ll be driving cross country beginning the last week in August, through September and into October. My goal is to keep a daily blog of my adventures out west. This has been a dream of mine for many years but, as life has it, it has been deferred until now.
Last August, I joined a Tauck group for a “heli”hiking tour of the Bugaboos, a region of the Purcell Mountain range in British Columbia. Every morning a helicopter would deposit a group of 12 or 14 people somewhere in the Bugaboos. We would hike all morning, eat lunch in some of the most beautiful scenery anywhere, and continue hiking in the afternoon. The helicopter would return and pick us up for dinner in the evening. Most of this was at an elevation of around 7,000 feet. This trip gave me the confidence to try my hand at camping and backpacking across the country. In reality, some of the nights will be in the comfort of bed and breakfasts and old lodges, and hotels, but I’ll have my share of primitive camping.
In getting ready, I was surprised at how backpacking and camping gear had changed. Twenty-one years ago, I was properly outfitted but you’ll be amazed at what 21 years of dry rot will do to gear. I had to completely re-gear. The cost was surprising (some things cheaper than you imagine and others far more expensive) but what really startled me was the advances made in gear. It is lighter, more durable, and definitely more inventive than when I last backpacked any significant distance.

Since I’m new to this blogging thing and I’m learning the software as I go, I’ll do a few test runs of three other shorter trips: Lakeland, Florida to tour Florida Southern College’s Frank Lloyd Wright architecture with side trip to Mount Dora, Floria; a trip to Whitehorse in Yukon Territory to see the aurora borealis (I hope) and a trip to Warm Springs, Georgia to visit FDR’s little white house.
