Everyone in the park must be climbing the dunes because we have this trail all to ourselves. 📍Dunes Overlook Trail #travel #vanlife #roadtrip #projectvanlife #travelblog #wanderout #adventure #explore #budgettravel #mountains #hiking #Colorado #nps #nationalparks #findyourpark – at Colorado, USA

One of the best drives in the US is along the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range on CO Hwy 150 driving north towards the dunes. 20 miles of perfection. #Coloradolove #travel #vanlife #roadtrip #ontheroad #projectvanlife #theroadlesstraveled #bestroads #Colorado
Arrived in #Colorado at 70 degrees, woke up the next morning to snow. When visiting the #mountains you may need to pack a few more layers to be prepared for all four seasons, which many times can be experienced all in one day. #travel #vanlife #roadtrip #ontheroad
Kansas is not entirely flat. While driving the western side of the state you may be surprisingly reminded at times of South Dakota. And then you find the Badlands of Kansas. #travel #thewanderingatlas #vanlife #roadtrip #ontheroad #travelslow #Kansas – at Colorado, USA

The Chalk Pyramids of Kansas. You can see hundreds of fossils from the Western Anterior Seaway at Monument Rocks National Landmark, the first such designated landmark in the state. #travel #vanlife #roadtrip #ontheroad #Kansas – at Colorado, USA

driving down a dirt road for miles always leads to a memorable experience not shared by many. get off the main road on your adventures + explore these unique places, its worth the extra time + slow driving. #travel #vanlife #roadtrip #ontheroad #spring #explore #travelslow – at Kansas, USA
Spring tune-up, cleaning + prepping for upcoming travels. It'll be interesting to compare road trips this spring vs. traveling last year just after states lockdowns ended. #travel #vanlife #vanlifediaries #vanlifers #travelsafe #pandemictravel #springtravel #springbreak
snow is quickly melting meaning winter camping season is slowly coming to a close. looking forward to springtime adventures. make sure to take some time to plan for your travels this year. Wander + Wonder with us: thewanderingatlas.com #vanlife #ontheroad #travel #optoutside

First meteor shower of 2021 is tonight - the Quadrantids can be seen looking towards The Big Dipper, though the moon's brightness may hinder the number you could see. (best viewing just before dawn) #optoutside #thenightsky #writteninthestars #astronomy space.com/35142-quadrantid-m…

Did you know that the northernmost point in the contiguous United States is in Minnesota? It’s called Angle Inlet, part of this little piece that sticks up into Canada, called the Northwest Angle. 1/6
