As we're coming up on the 2 year anniversary of when Darrell and I took this trip, I thought I'd do a little break down.
- Total $ Spent During Trip: Under $200. We scrimped and saved and brought a lot of our own food along. Like this. We also came up with some creative ways to eat. Check it out. - # of Rides Hitched: 34. Thanks to all those people who helped us along the way. Most were very short some were long, all were necessary. - Longest Ride: From Denver, CO to Salt Lake City, UT. A little over 530 miles. That was a nice one. - Shortest Ride: About as short and as necessary as they come, Mr. Larson saw us go the wrong way at a bus stop (we were looking for a campsite), then went home and got his car to come and find us. He tells it better. - # of Rides Turned Down: Only one. He was a shifty guy and we both had a bad feeling. You gotta follow the rules. - Best Place to Stay: Maybe it wasn't the best at first, but after our camera broke, Ron took us out with his son on one of the craziest parts of our adventure. Check it out. - Worst Place to Stay: This category and the next one go hand in hand... It's not that this place is bad... just a bad place to spend the night. And coincidentally this was the longest we waited for a ride. - Longest We Waited for a Ride: It took us over 14 hours to get a ride in the heart of Salt Lake City. In fact we had to hop a train. - Hours Filmed: Over 120. - Total RunTime: 72 minutes. Give it a look.
