You would have to first get a map (which I have) and then drive your route. You would drive the route so you could get a feel of where you could stop for supplies.
Say you figure you can carry four days worth of supplies. You need to make sure there is a place to get supplies every four days. If one does not naturally exist, you need to arrange for someone to meet you in a certain place every fourth day.
You need to have a spotter. You need a gps system and one of those gps transmitters because if you get killed or injured, you need a way to get help. So you need a spotter watching your progress.
When I walk to Alberta, the hardest part will be the first 20 miles, when I am still so close to home. Maybe when I go, I will have The Hub drive me just up over the Bridge cause then I won't have to hitch a ride across the Mighty Mac, and also I won't really recognize any of the surroundings. Also it will knock 200 miles or so off the trip.
When I go, I want to go alone. I would be lonely for the first couple days, and then fine. I think the loneliness would set in again around day 20, but really I just pulled that number out of my ass. I bet there would come a point though, where you would be absofuckinlutely thrilled to see a walmart.
