The AAA TripTik

For those of you who aren't familiar with AAA, they have a service called "TripTiks" that is basically Mapquest directions on steroids. It includes all kinds of information about current construction zones, bridge and road tolls, and interesting information about "scenic byways", some of which we will be taking along our trip out west. It includes turn by turn maps in addition to a summary of the directions on the first several pages.

So tonight I finally put together our complete AAA TripTik, basically showing the route we will take from hotel to hotel to campground to hotel. It's in an Adobe PDF file so if I'm able to figure out how, I will post it on this blog for your viewing pleasure. I just wanted to post a couple of quick facts about our trip according to the TripTik, which is 122 pages long(!)

Total Distance: 4211.5 miles (6777.6 km)
Total Estimated Time: 68 hrs., 12 mins.

More information to come...

  1. I LOVE TripTiks! My dad used to let me hold the triptik on long car trips. I wish I was there to hold yours!
