Our generation has gained a bad reputation as couch sitting, video game playing, lazy kids. We want to be trail blazers for our peers: going where our elders have gone before us, in a similar way that they did. Over a span of 28 days Dan, Alden, and Mike will be traveling over 8,500 miles across America. While trying to be as cost efficient as possible and seeing all the national parks on the way, we will be driving from Pittsburgh, PA to the Pacific Ocean, and back to Dallas, Texas. While visiting the natural beauties of the United States, we will be conducting a two-fold experiment; how cheaply can one see the sights of America and do people still have it in their hearts to help a few adventurers out?
