Built on a honeymoon. Sharpened by a wildfire.
My wife and I spent four months on the road for our honeymoon — and it was one of the best decisions we've ever made. It was also one of the most chaotic planning experiences imaginable. Five or six apps deep, juggling tabs, trying to correlate data points in our heads to make decisions on the fly.
Then on our second extended trip, wildfires. We'd dodge one smoke trail and drive straight into another. There was no single place to see route conditions, smoke coverage, and campground availability all at once — so we kept getting caught off guard.
I came home and started building what I wish had existed.
