This recent trip was sited "way back east" and may not be of broad interest on WTW. That said, I commonly see western tags on campers on this side of the US so thinking some may be interested. Here is the trip overview and a link to a full report and lots of photos over on EP.
Overview:
The hot and muggy dog days of August in Northern Virginia had me dreaming of cooler areas up North. Time had come to do some vehicle based roaming & exploring and enjoy vast forested areas, logging roads, cool clear rivers and of course Lobster Rolls!
The basic plan would be a loop routing up to Maine, then mosey west staying near the Canadian border to the Thousand Islands area of NY, then homeward via I-81 over a period of 24 days:
- Depart NOVA and do a transit overnight in the Delaware Water Gap Recreation Area.
- Two nights on Cape Cod.
- Two nights in the southern coast area near Freeport Maine.
- Two nights middle coastal area near Desert Island/Acadia NP Maine.
- Two nights interior of Maine near Millinocket Maine.
- Route westward enjoying northern New Hampshire and Vermont over 8 days.
- Four days enjoying the Adirondack Park and the Thousand Islands area in NY.
My son Ryan would be joining me for the first 5 nights, then he would fly home and my daughter Laura would fly in and enjoy the next 4 nights. We used the Portland Maine airport for the air logistics. The rest of the trip it would be just me and OZY, my ACD.
