Hi my name is Beau Swanson and I'm a 38 year old from Grandville, Michigan. I'm currently training to walk across America (with my dog Moses in a push cart) coast to coast. My journey is slated to be a 3 part push starting this fall with the crossing of Michigan on foot west to east. Followed by the crossing of Michigan south to north across the North Country Trail over the Mackinac Bridge and then headed west to the Wisconsin border hiking along Lake Superior through the Upper Peninsula. The final push of the trip will be the over 3,000 mile hike across America coast to coast down the American Discovery Trail. Finally ending my journey at the Pacific Ocean. The money raised will be used strictly for things trip related...
Push Cart/Stroller: Looking for a cart to transport camping equipment, and for my dog to comfortably ride in.
Dog Needs: Food and water, weather appropriate clothes, pre trip vet visit, transportation (push cart) etc.
Camping equipment and fees: Tent, sleeping bag, padded mat, cooking equipment, camping permits, fees etc.
Other Gear: Solar chargers, extra camera batteries and memory cards, go pro, GPS, etc.
Personal Needs: Food and water, occasional lodging, laundry, etc
I'm sure I'm forgetting somethings but now you get the general ideas.
I'm really excited to get this adventure going and even more excited that I'm going to bring you all with me. I greatly appreciate any help I can get. ♂️
