so here is the plan -- I recently retired and we are looking to get an RV and go from NH up through northern US and Canada (NY,Ottawa, Northern MI, WI, MN, Dakota's, WY, MT then up to Anchorage AK) Then down the west coast to SD and then go through NV, UT, AZ, NM, TX and down through the Gulf of Mexico states up through FL to VA and back to NH -- plan is a 340 day trip. When we start is up in air since we have 12 year old dog that my wife doesnt want to take on the trip -- so THAT is the delay -- But any spots to stop are always appreciated!!!!

That’s going to be wicked!!! Oh man do I have places for you. But what major stops do you have already through the west coast. Basically the entirety of the Oregon coast is awesome. But don’t skip out on Bend Oregon. It’s an absolutely stunning place to be. Mt Shasta in California is also amazing. But make sure you hit the redwood state and national park on the California and Oregon coast. Google the scenic byway in Oregon because that has some amazing views as well. Cannon beach is stunning. In Washington make sure to hit cape disappointment for some potentially huge waves. Olympic national park and Mt Rainier are stunning in Washington. North cascades is amazing for rolling Mountain View’s. If you are in Washington in July go to the Palouse area of Washington to see the “Tuscany of America” with its rolling hills covered in gorgeous green wheat

here is the roadtripper link from MT to NV (so Glacier NP to Alaska then down the coast from Vancover to San Diego back up through NV -- then we go through UT/AZ/NM/TX on the next roadtripper map as it only allows 150 stops per trip so our trip is broken down to 5 parts
