In our finale installment of A Long Time Coming, we fly over to the fabled Isle Royale National Park to hike across the island, of which we've been wanting to see for as long as we can remember.

We move yet further east and into the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to explore Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore! We hike a 42 miles through Pictured Rocks National Lake Shore. However, we add a little twist by packrafting a few sections of the trail to take full advantage of the beautiful and calm waters of Lake Superior!

We transition from the hot plains of South Dakota up to the US and Canadian Border to explore the extensive waterway of Voyageurs National Park by canoe for a few days of camping on a remote island. As well as a stop in Apostle Islands National Lake Shore to check out the otherworldly rock formations that make the area famous!

In our second installment of A Long Time Coming, we venture in Badlands National Park and cross paths with our first road trip that lead to our current life on the road. Badlands National Park has always had a special place in our hearts, and we are curious if it was everything we remembered it being.

This is the start of our grand adventure into the Northern Midwest. We make an unexpected stop in Makoshika State Park before making our way into Theodore Roosevelt National Park.

After leaving Canwell Glacier is was time to start making our way out of Alaska and towards the lower 48. Sadly, we had a few pressing “hard dates” on our calendar that forced us to compress our timeline to get back to the US. However we made stop in Fairbanks to have some much needed time with our family!
