Thats pretty cool. how did you put that together?

Red is for the road camping trips. Green is for long hikes I have taken. In the red is also 15 years of working at a scout camp that I would spend 3 months in a tent every summer. So I have spent some time outdoors.

You got me beat for sure......I didn't list hiking trips but there were certainly more camping trips than hiking..

Most of the times I get out it is for hiking trips. The base camping I do on all those road trips were to go to climbing spots canoe trips or some hill to walk up. Also most of those red trips were in my youth when I had time to kill between school.

Well you can't go everywhere...:)

You guys are adventurous, I usually stick within about 3 hours of my house :|

well, in all honesty, my trips go back over 30 years. Most have been in the last 12 years.

Now a days I stay a little closer to The heart of New England.
Some of these trips were in my E and some were not. Most always with my dogs though.

I'm going for the "all the trips in my life" chart. The one that went all the way from MA to NM then north into canada was done in this old van. The van had Snow White and the seven Dwarfs paited on the sides. We borrowed it from a church daycare for the 2 month trip. Got some good stares with the thing. ahh good times.

I thought I liked to camp.

Geez.

I have been only camping in Tennessee.
But I have Hiked Parts of the AT

Well, it was over a long time and if you live in TN I'll be glad to stop in when I go by?
Dinner is what time?
And the remote cable for tv viewing in the E will be ready?:grin:

Here are most of the spots I've camped at - over several decades. The big picture spans from Maine to Alaska, but most of the detail is in Washington and British Columbia. About 50 of the sites are from the last 3 years with the Element.

My Alaska travels were in August-September. During August it was pleasant, by September (Labor Day) we were seeing signs of fall. In most places it was after the worst of the bugs. That year was a bit on the wet side, such as a our first site in Alaska, Eagle. The Alaska panhandle was cool and damp like much of the NW coast.

Here's a rough approximation of spots I have camped at in North America over about 30 years.

Closer to Piedras Negras, actually!

My wife and I spent a month living with a Mexican family in Piedras Negras, as part of a cross cultural living experience. This was back in the 80s. It was an interesting experience, although that part of Mexico (and neighboring Texas) is nothing to get excited about.

These maps are great but they tell me I should have been more agressive about reaching out to further distances from home when I was younger.

Now, getting older and liking to stick closer to home, I guess I am destined to live vicariously thru these stories and maps.

So keep the maps coming, I ponder and dream:grin:

Hey, you're as young as you feel!

Perhaps we'll start on the world map next. :D

Now you'e talking "a world map", yeah well, I need to at least get to Western Canada.....

Wouldn't that be something to see E'ers siging in from where ever and toting their E from country to counrty, costly but prob fun.:grin:

Talk about meets!
