We're home
Well, we're home safe and sound (in fact I'm already back at work). The trip was great. Sunday we got off by 7:15 and were home around 2:00. We climbed up Tioga Pass (9900 feet) with surprisingly little difficulty. The drive through Yosemite was gorgeous, but there were so many people coming in to the park. Yikes!
I came home to a dead Prius (12V) battery, but other than that the house is fine (and so are my fish).
Since I like stats, here are a few from the trip:
Total miles driven: 3,235
Total miles with trailer: 2,848
Longest driving day: 488 miles from Grand Canyon, AZ to Santa Fe, NM
Total nights camping: 21
Number of states visited: 5 (California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico)
Hottest daytime temperature while camping: 107 in Zion National Park, UT
Coolest nighttime temperature while camping: 37 in June Lake, CA
Hottest temp while driving: 112 in Nevada
Highest elevation while driving: 9900' over Tioga Pass
Highest elevation while camping: 7900' in Bryce Canyon, UT
Total gas consumed: 355 gallons
Avg fuel economy: 9.1 mpg
Total cost of fuel: $1120
