Now, our story will begin...4
Our story begins with these three "people" that we will refer to as Curtis, Jacob and Cornelius fromleft to right respectively. These three best friends grew tired of their lives at home and longed to escape
their monotonous lives. They wished to seek out the meaning of their lives. The three eventually came
together and planned a road trip across the country.
5
This road trip consists of four main stops, Blue Ridge Parkway, Upland Island Wilderness,Elicott Slough National Wildlife Refuge and San Juan Islands National Monument. Their trip will
span a distance of 3,763 miles.
6
The three packed the appropriate provisions and set out on their journey to findthemselves in their eco-friendly and "green" Prius.
7
Their first destination was Blue Ridge Parkway, a restricted use public land, in Asheville, North Carolina. For this destination, the three only packed warm clothing, snacks and water because they were going to take
advantage of Blue Ridge Parkways on site lodging.
8
Curtis, Jacob and Cornelius took part in hiking the trails as well as horseback riding while taking in theserene beauty of the Blue Ridge Parkway. After returning from the trails the three visited the on site shops
and dining and then returned to their lodging. During their visit the group look out over the serene mountain
landscape while also catching a glimpse of many of the deer that linger around the trails and roads. However,
the group also spotted a considerable amount of littering.
9
The next destination on the list was Upland Island Wilderness, a multiple use land in Angelina, Texas. For this destination, the group
brought tents, non perishable food, water, fishing poles and bows
and arrows for hunting.
10
The group spent their in Upland Island Wilderness hiking the many trails and hunting as wellas fishing at the many creeks that spread throughout the whole wilderness area. The group
also spotted many of the peacocks that call this region home. However, it was evident that
the wilderness was lacking in game probably due to overhunting.
