One thing that we want to tell you about when considering using Tracks & Trails – the vast experience of our staff. When you look at the area where we offer itineraries, it’s pretty big. Sometimes our clients have no idea how big it is. Just to give you a basic idea – from Seattle […]
As of 10:15 this morning, the Telegraph fire is 20% contained, yet firefighting is difficult due to the terrain. Hwy 140 is partially open. The lastest maps show that this road is the most threatened and CalTrans is suggesting motorists to use alternate routes. All of our clients visiting this area do not use Hwy […]
As our clients come back from their trips, we occasionaly get pictures. The Harper’s took a 13 night trip that started in Billings, MT. They traveled the Beartooth Highway into Yellowstone, then through the Grand Teton National Park, on down to Jackson, WY and back to Billings. This family was really adventurous. They took a […]
We thought we’d get at least a partial staff picture here so that you could put a name with a face. I’m taking the picture and Dan & Sheri are out and about, so we’re not in this one. And that’s okay, since most of our clients will be interested in who they talk to […]

If you have the time, want to miss the crowds and like the weather a little cooler, then maybe you should be thinking of taking that ‘summer’ vacation in September or October. Both are great months to travel to beat the crowds, beat the heat and feel like you have the National parks all to […]
This is the time of year for us at Tracks & Trails where most of the planning and reservations are complete for our clients’ summer trips. And we get feedback on how much fun everyone has had. Including pictures! This is great for us in the office to see through our clients’ eyes what they […]
A recent NY Times article discussed how many travel/tour operators are taking bookings as much as 18 months in advance in order to lock in today’s rates for a variety of travel options. At Tracks & Trails, we can also help facilitate making your vacation arrangements for 2009. Many of our approved RV rental companies […]
Many gorgeous places in the West are very susceptible to wildfire during the summer months. Unlike last year at this time when many fires were burning in Idaho and Montana, it’s been Northern California’s turn. At Tracks & Trails, we watch a number of websites daily to see if we need to reroute any of […]
