<\/p>\nEvery expedition takes a lot of planning, a lot more than most people realize, or appreciate.<\/p>\n
Hours spent online checking to see if trails are open, what is the weather forecast, accommodations, food\/dining, camping availability, fuel availability, and more.<\/p>\n
Here is an example of a finished itinerary that is emailed to expedition participants.<\/p>\n
