Cross country hiking trip 2016

By: Caleb Francis + Save to a List

I believe most people don't travel because they believe it will be too expensive. A couple friends and I had been planning this trip for a few years and were finally able to figure it all out so that it wasn't too expensive for any of us! We camped at KOAs and BLMs anytime we didn't stay in a park which was very cheap. We have been on the road for 10 days hiking a new park almost every day. Perfect weather and beautiful diverse scenery every day! Definitely a trip we will never forget.
