Going solo for this one. Partially to scope out grad schools in Oregon and Washington and partially as doing a solo trip (as I have always wanted to do) as a bachelor gift for myself before I get married next June.

Traveling through North Colo., Wyoming, Utah, Idaho and then Oregon and Washington. (Time will restrict me from taking Blue Highways)

I want to camp part of the way there, with my hotel stays on nights prior to visiting schools.

Anything I should know?

Any advise on these areas in October?

Anything at all? I am new to this.

Thanks.
