Exploring the most remote corners of the US National Parks through multi-night backpacking trips and wilderness expeditions. We're Jen and Elliot, and we're on a mission to visit every US National Park while living full-time in our AWD Sprinter van. After years of nomadic life, from cruising America’s Great Loop by boat to building our mobile office and home on wheels, we’ve dedicated our journey to the deep backcountry. We share the authentic costs, challenges, and unbridled joy of leaving your comfort zone behind. The good, the bad, the ugly, and the funny. We’re not here to tell you 'how it’s done,' just how we’ve done it. Subscribe to join our next expedition!
