Routes / Heading on GDMBR July 2nd start in Eureka for 6 weeks

« on: June 29, 2021, 05:30:48 pm »

We are headed out for 6 weeks. Starting July 2nd in Eureka and heading south as far as we can get. Hoping to make it to Yellowstone. Four of us out there (Myself, wife, 14 year old son, almost 12 year old daughter who will have a birthday on the trail!). Wish us luck!

Anyone have feedback on lodging challenges this year? Hopefully we will find places. Was considering warmshowers.org if we get in trouble with finding commercial, but suspect that will be tough with 4 of us.

Keeping a blog if you want to follow: https://www.ruggedfamilyadventure.com/

Thanks!

GPS & Digital Data Discussion / GPX included in Map/Guidebook?

« on: February 10, 2021, 03:08:27 pm »

Bought the GDMBR guidebook and maps. Other european books I've gotten included a link for GPX data, but I couldn't find one for these.

Does that mean I need to purchase the GPX data separately? Shoot! Seems like I've already paid for the underlying information.

Thanks!

Routes / GDBMR - How to get to start?

Hi All,

Hoping the Canada boarder will open this summer.

How do others get to Jasper? We live an colorado and was wondering if anyone has ever rented a one way car, and if so, by whom? 22 hr drive... Long, but not undoable.

Thanks!

Tom
