Field plans
Researched itineraries — trails, maps, timings and conditions. Each plan keeps its own address.
In 274 daysFourteen days built backwards from the things that actually govern them — a lot that holds twenty cars, a lift that runs 08:30 to 17:30, and a lake you have to pay to park beside.
In 288 daysFourteen nights in three car-free bases, planned around the things that actually govern the days here — when the first lift runs, when the storms build, and one Sunday when the whole country stops.
In 327 daysThe Ring Road by camper van, timed to the first week of the year the sky is actually dark.

Volcanoes, hot springs and whales, one big adventure a day.

Arctic first, while the sun does not set — then the fjords, north to south.
Zion, Bryce, Capitol Reef, Arches and Canyonlands — one base per park, Highway 12 in the middle, no dirt roads.
Past tripOne day following the Niagara River from the gorge it dug to the lake it empties into — the Glen floor, the escarpment top, Old Town, and sunset at the river mouth. Saturday, August 29, 2026.
Past tripWhitby to Île d'Orléans, a first look at the only walled city north of Mexico, and the road south into Vermont. Deliberately unhurried — one long drive, one slow day, one waterfall on the way out.
Past tripOne extra day ahead of the Vermont trip: a long drive down, one morning in Franconia Notch and on the Kancamagus Highway, then on to Hyde Park by mid-afternoon. September 30 – October 1, 2026.
Past tripFour days chasing peak color through Stowe, Smugglers' Notch, and the Northeast Kingdom. October 1–4, 2026. Base camp: 1592 Center Rd, Hyde Park, VT.
Past tripTwo nights on Lake of Bays. Limberlost in the afternoon light, Track and Tower in the morning, and one permit that decides Sunday.
