In order to begin the discussion on the drive from H'ville to Jackson, I have mapped the direct drive route for everyone's consideration, but specifically for Day and Evans.
Wednesday, Sep 3: (621 miles) http://ridewithgps.com/routes/5323150
Thursday, Sep 4: (551 miles) http://ridewithgps.com/routes/5323166
Friday, Sep 5: (540 miles) http://ridewithgps.com/routes/5323188
An alternative would be to start on Tuesday (Labor Day) and add a little touring while in Colorado around Rocky Mt National Park. Comments?
This looks as good as it can be given the time and distance. Wednesday is realistically as soon as we can leave.
ReplyDeleteOkay, Wednesday Departure is the plan. Those are 9- to 10-hour driving days. I'll look for some likely and reasonably-priced motel stops for the evening on the Day-Evans Route-Out and see what you think. I figured you and I would rotate about every couple hours driving or so to avoid driver fatigue, but not ask the women to drive. We'll need to get on the road no later than 9AM each morning so we can finish by 7PM. On Wednesday, I would like to start by 8AM. I am good in the morning, so I can start. That'll give you and Wilma the extra hours to completely wake up.
