What is Miles Across America? Beginning November 1, 2009, I am embarking on a journey of some of America's most beautiful miles across the great American West. My trip encompasses four states for a total of 3,642 miles with 90 driving hours.
My Miles Across America project is a way for me to expand my fine art collection. I will definitely need assistance with the trip and there's a way you can help and get a print for yourself. Here how it works... The map of my journey is shown below with mile increments. Each mile of the road trip will be sold off at a price of $5 per mile. Each mile is treated like a point, and each mile you buy results in a beautiful print from the trip, delivered straight from my digital darkroom to you. Here's what your miles can get you:
- 1 Mile gets you a 4" x 6" postcard print
- 5 Miles gets you a 8" x 12" print
- 10 Miles gets you a 12" x 18" print
- 20 Miles gets you a 16" x 20" canvas print
- 50 Miles gets you a 20" x 24" framed canvas print
Additionally, you have the option of choosing an area where your miles will correlate. If you choose, say, miles #1396-1692, you'll receive a print from beautiful Utah (see the below map). Some of my stops include:
Cadillac Ranch just west of Amarillo, TX
Chaco Culture National Historical Park, NM
Shiprock, NM
Monument Valley, AZ & UT
Arches National Park, UT
Dead Horse Point, UT
Canyonlands National Park, UT
Goblin Valley State Park, UT
Bryce Canyon National Park, UT
Lake Powell, UT & AZ
Navajo Bridge, AZ
Grand Canyon's South Rim, AZ
Petrified Forest National Park, NM
Elephant Butte State Park, NM
White Sands National Monument, NM
Carlsbad Caverns National Park, NM
Big Bend National Park, TX
But most importantly, it also includes all the spots in between. You see I'm staying mainly on smaller roads and highways and only hitting an Interstate a couple of times.
You can follow me on my journey by registering with my blog as I will be updating it as often as possible. You can also become a fan on Facebook, as I will post updates there too.
When my trip is done, I will set up the Miles Across America gallery where you can view and/or purchase prints of the photographs taken from the trip.
