We used Katy and Ryan’s map to plan our 3 week road trip in California. Their guide really covers everything and they have a wealth of knowledge to share! We especially loved all the cool hikes and photos spots around Mt Shasta and the Redwoods.

Love the detailed itinerary. I didn’t have 7 days but I did get to pick/choose out of the 7 day trip that I could do in 2-3 days. It is super helpful to know if something costs money or is free, if there’s more to do or if it is just a good picture point/scenic spot, etc. The actual overview and message gives a nice summary about the location. I will absolutely use the itinerary when I come back out to explore NorCal again. Thanks again you guys 🫶🏼✨
