Travel FOMO

S10:E4 – Arizona is beautiful, but it might not be the best place to bring your Airstream during the summer, as we found out the minute we arrived to Lake Powell. Airstreams are basically a tin can, soaking up heat in the sun, and this part of the world doesn’t offer much in the way of tree coverage. But the views of Horseshoe Bend were spectacular, and even easier to access th

S10:E3 – Everything about Zion National Park is extreme, which is right up Hilarie’s alley. But the Angel’s Landing hike was on another level. Every step was heart-stopping. Worth repeating? Not sure. Then there’s a canyon valley trail called The Narrows, where hundreds of people hike with their feet submerged in the cold water of a river. And it becomes even more thrilling

S10:E2 – Monsoon season? Not ideal for hiking. But Bryce Canyon National Park has a lot to offer year-round, and Jamin and Hilarie didn’t miss a beat. From Sunrise Point to Queen’s Trail, Tower Bridge and Inspiration Point, they saw the beauty of the Utah canyon’s orange hoodoos from top to bottom. They also finally figured out who Ruby is; If you’ve been to Bryce, you kn

S10:E1 –Jamin and Hilarie start this new “National Park Spree” season off with a bang! In this episode, they discuss the hardest road they would haul their Airstream down in all of Gap Year, California’s Highway 120. Once they finally arrived at their RV park, they were faced with pirates – or at least, a reality show full of them. With that much excitement outside of the

S9:E12 – Big Sur has some big views. But when you’re hauling an extra-wide Airstream, it takes some effort to get there. We braved the hairpin curves of the Pacific Coast Highway to make our way to the Big Sur Campground & Cabins. Amidst the classic Bixby Bridge and Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park, it was the perfect location for us. Tune in to hear about the heavily photograph

S9:E11 – We took a break from the wilderness and decided to take Maggie, our golden doodle, to explore a different kind of National Park: the Golden Gate Bridge and Presidio of San Francisco. We couldn’t pass up a chance to see the Palace of Fine Arts and grab some grub at Pier 39. Before exploring more of the city, Maggie got to lay her eyes on Sea Lions for the first time. (S

S9:E10 – There’s one thing you definitely need when visiting the Redwood National & State Parks: a vehicle. Ironically, our Ford F250 was giving out on us right when we arrived. Meanwhile, Hilarie has a mini-meltdown caused by their ongoing lack of connection to the outside world. Fortunately, we were able to get it fixed, despite being in the middle of nowhere in California. H

S9:E9 – When we checked into Mazama Campground at Crater Lake National Park, we were caught off guard when we realized that our RV site didn’t have hookups…at all. How could we have forgotten?! Fortunately, we had a heck of a cliffside view – perhaps the best location in all of Crater Lake. In addition to the stark beauty of the lake, we enjoyed a day trip to Bend, Oregon a

Right outside Portland, it’s also home to Ainsworth State Park. That’s where we RV-ed for a few nights and decided to cycle down the Historic Columbia River Gorge Highway. But it didn’t go as planned… For more con

S9:E7 – There’s a lot to see in Olympic National Park – three ecosystems (rainforest, ocean and mountains) that cover the span of 1 million square miles. Each year, the park’s Hoh Rainforest gets more than 12’ of rain, which ensures the photogenic Sol Duc Falls continues to thrive. Then there’s Rialto Beach, one magnificent piece of the 73 miles of coastline. There are
