HA! Sort of off-topic, but related. I grew up in CA and I'm now living in NY. I enjoy the mountains and wilderness related activities such as fly fishing. The two coasts could not be more different. In upstate NY the creeks and rivers are small and choked by lush vegetation. California is much more open, distances are further, creeks and rivers are deep and fast in the Sierras. (Although recent years the snowpack was very low). Now, after nearly two months into the season, I've been watching videos on Youtube, of course you see a share of those unique fisheries of Montana, Wyoming, Colorado--really wide open spaces, amid the back drop of the high peaks of those states. And between these are the Great Plains. Its mind boggling to contemplate the beauty and diversity (gasp) of the US. And I'm also a motorcyclist. So add together the appreciation of geology and the desire to wander on two wheels and you know where I was this weekend in my thoughts and plans. I was imagining the epic journey to try to capture exemplars of these contrasts by motorcycle. Naturally Lewis & Clark came to mind. Though, as I considered their journey as inspiration for a motorcycle road trip I had not recalled the extent they traveled by canoe. HAHA. Not that adventurous. I would certainly enjoy learning more from this research for my planning of such a motorcycle trip.
