How far do you drive for a diy trip

[cday34]

Two 24 hour trips solo. One 32 hour trip with a buddy. Like everyone else has said, coming home is by far the worst part of going solo.

20 hours one way. Make the trip out one day early. Used to fly out years ago before it became too much of a hassle and shipping costs got outrageous for meat/skull. Now I enjoy solo trips unless my buddy goes out to chase September.

I drive about 4.5 hours. Feel for you guys that drive across the country.

21 to western wyoming.
27 to my favorite spot in Montana
Solo. Podcasts. No caffeine.
Make a list of every blm spot you can pull off to catch some shut eye.

I am in West TN so I can get just about anywhere in NM, CO, or WY in less than 24 hours. Driving with a buddy its usually a straight through haul which sucks. I greatly prefer to drive since I know where I can get my vehicle (most rental cars don't come equipped with a winch, locker, etc.) and you can never count on a rental car being what you reserved. I would hate to plan a hunt and not even be able to access half the unit because I was stuck in a 2wd car...

Being a father of young teenage kid (who is totally opposite of me in terms of missing school. I would find reasons to skip school. He on contrary doesn't want to miss even when its online, not that I'm encouraging it), I try to stay within couple hrs drive max, mostly bout an hour and quarter.

I drive from Birmingham Al to jud North dakota almost every year for 12 years. Its 26 hrs we do it 3 man per truck and drive non stop.
We bought a house up there so we fly now that we don't haul gear and its like a 5 hr travel time but i would drive it again.

The older I get the more I like to be in MY bed at night.
The past 2 years I've driven to Deming, NM and Marfa, TX.
from the E. side of Mobile Bay.
Didn't draw a tag in NM this year. I'm not devastated.
