By the Numbers


In spite of the early difficulties, I did make it all the way to the Pacific and back.
Here are a few stats from the trip:
the general route is pictured above. Couldn't get the googlemaps highlighted map to display correctly, but this is close

18 U.S. States and 1 Canadian Province
7,300 miles (11,700 kilometers)
That's the equivalent of driving from New York City to Nairobi, Kenya
29 days, 28 nights
16 days over 100 miles driving, 13 days under 100 miles (incl. 7 of 0 miles)
average of 440 miles per day during driving days
longest distance in one day - 640 miles
18 different locations for the night, 5 stops for multiple nights
3 nights staying on my own, the rest with friends
