2026 Wild West Wander

Join us as we wander west to find new RabbiTRAILS

We’ll

  • visit National Parks – Big Bend and Guadalupe Mountains in Texas, and Death Valley, Sequoia and Yosemite in California
  • camp on the edge of Louisiana’s Lake Pontchartrain, scratch for rocks and explore cliff dwellings in New Mexico, and examine Native American drawings on canyon walls in west Texas
  • hike to amazing geologic formations at Chiricahua National Monument in Arizona and admire the rugged splendor of the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho
  • And to top it all off, we hope to spend July 4 at Mt Rushmore for our nation’s 250th birthday.

Come along for these adventures and more as we embark on our 2026 Wild West Wander series!

On March 30 we celebrated Pap’s third birthday.   

Pap has been our travel companion to Alaska (2023), Great Lakes and New England (2024) and the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta and Beyond (2025).  Closer to home, we’ve camped in the Florida Keys, Everglades NP and at a number of other Florida state parks.              

(2023) Remote camping on the Denali Highway in Alaska
(2024) Crossing a covered bridge in New Hampshire
(2025) Visiting Chimney Rock in western Nebraska, an important landmark to 19th century pioneers on the Oregon, California and Mormon Trails
We’re thankful for God’s protection during several travel mishaps, including frayed wires (above), flat tires, bent jack legs and a cave scrape that damaged Pap’s roof

In three years, we’ve camped 401 nights in Pap and expect to surpass 500 nights during our 2026 Wild West Wander!

Next Week

Enjoy a smorgasbord of RabbiTRAILS:  an old fort, high flying jets, and the world’s longest bridge all made flavorful with a sprinkle of bayou hot sauce.
