I’ll be hugging The Loneliest Road in America in Nevada as I gradually make my way to Carson City, before hitting the southern tip of Lake Tahoe, inching my way across the mountains into Sacramento, and traveling around the North Bay (with a stop in Napa) for the home stretch. On the last day, I will cross the Golden Gate Bridge and plant my callused feet into the Pacific Ocean at Ocean Beach, reaching the end of a 3,000 mile conversational journey!

The route becomes very desolate shortly after Delta, Utah. I’ll be spending five or six days walking across the Utah desert, before hitting The Border Inn at the Nevada-Utah border. Then we return to Wyoming-style walking, two days between towns and camping in between, before reaching the home stretch.
