Did We Complete Our 2022 Hiking Goal?

Teddy and I reflect on our hiking goal we made together for 2022 and our progress.

Bucket List Hikes (Southwest)

While 12 days is a decent amount of time for a trip, we covered about 3000 miles so we weren’t able to get to all the hiking we would have liked. There were some hikes we cut due to time or others we didn’t even know about prior to getting to the locations. Because we loved our time in the Southwest and plan to visit again, we started to list our must do hikes for our next adventure through these beautiful states which you can find below.

Southwest Road Trip (Where We Would Have Spent More Time + Places To Visit Next Trip)

While that post shares all the things we got to do, I thought it would be fun to share some other things about that trip here. That includes the “We wish we had more time in….” list as well as the “Next time we want to visit….” list.

Our Southwest Road Trip Itinerary (12 Days)

We spent time in 5 states including Nevada, California, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico. We visited 9 National Parks, 3 State Parks, as well as National Forests, Monuments, Preserves and Tribal Parks.
