Hiking USA
I just read a CNN article about a couple that hiked for 8 months to cross America. Averaging 22 miles a day with only 4 days off seems like a tough vacation to me:
They overcame deep snow in the East, a quicksand scare in Utah, close lightning strikes in the Midwest and blinding desert sandstorms in the West while averaging 22 miles a day and taking only four days off.Posted by James Trotta at October 17, 2005 8:41 PMThe transcontinental trail starts in Delaware, meandering through Washington, D.C., Cincinnati, St. Louis and other cities, 14 national parks and 16 national forests before hitting the Pacific at Point Reyes.
