EDIT THIS TRIP!

Click the "Copy" button above to make your own copy of this trip. Or click the "Reverse" button to make a reverse-direction copy.

If you are using Maps: edit by dragging icons:

Red icons are stopover viapoints at RV parks.
Green icons are are pass-through viapoints.
Square icons on the line will add a viapoint.

If you drag a red stopover icon it turns white. If any RV parks are nearby, bright red RV park icons appear. Drag the white icon to a bright red RV park icon to select the RV park.

Or, click the "Pass-Through" button on the icon's pop-up window to turn it into a pass-through instead of a stopover.

You can also use the form below the map to do the same things in a different manner.

The text fields also permit playing around with a schedule for the trip.

Performance note: If you get the "wait" cursor, try turning off the text fields if you are not using them. To do this: uncheck the "Text" selection above the map, then click the "Selected=>" button to its left. Or, turn off the map in a similar manner if you are not using it.

Play with the map. Enjoy. Email me with any suggestions or gripes at info@continuoustraveler.com

If you cannot find RV parks in an area of interest, let me know. I will try to find and add parks.

Thanks!
Tom

Tour Arches National Park and Canyon Lands National Park.

Made reservation by phone at 12:30 CDT 3/28/2007. Secured with MC.

Originally scheduled to arrive 22-May. However, we made a detour back to New Horizons to get some cabinetry installed.

Nice park. VERY interesting area. Way too hot for me, but we had a great time. Lots of interesting stuff to do and see. I hope to come back some day.
