“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.” - Unknown
“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -- I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” - Robert Frost

As my social circle has changed over the years, I've found it increasingly difficult to go on weekend camping adventures with others. In most cases, it is marriage and family based.

Ultimately, my goal is to plan a trip every three weeks (more if the desire is there) to locations not too far, yet far enough removed to feel remote. We will be planning trips …
