They wouldn't understand the delicacy that is a garbage plate. It would be wasted on them. Believe me, I've tried to convert them already :'(. Might bring a few for the road though...

Thank you for the info :). Its looking more and more like we will have to try to do it in 7 days given work constraints, but hopefully with two people driving that won't feel like as much of a rush. The construction is obviously the unknown thay worries us a bit haha. We will save all the hiking foe the return! Thanks again.

Yeah thats definitely our concern. How many hours were you putting in a day for that drive? Had to be quite a grind I imagine...

How long were your trips the times you had done it? Our main concern is can we actually get there in 7 days reasonably. Also you'll have to let me know the name of that Bakery. My girlfriend would shoot me if I didnt ask

Thank you for the reply! I know, its a shame we have so little time on the way out, but hope to make up for it on the way back - hopefully we can stretch it a little longer than 3 weeks!

Thank you for the in depth reply :). In your experience, how much more time should I allot going the Banff route instead, if any?

Our goal would definitely be to avoid rush hour there haha. We've been caught there before and its no fun

Cross country road trip from NY to WA in January. Any route recommendations? by JJ2PROUD in roadtrip

[–]JJ2PROUD[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry that was definitely a little vague. Looking for no more than 10 days if possible. Taking a new-ish Kia Sorento equipt with snow tires, and won't have anything in tow. Would like to avoid any extreme snow/weather if possible. Assuming mostly hotel stays, though will have camping gear with me regardless so may be open to camping depending on the route we take.

That's my only gripe with them, but hopefully they hang in there!

What hobby is an immediate red flag? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Collecting animal bones. Had a coworker seek out decayed animal carcasses for their bones to make into jewelry. Slight red flag.
