Four weeks, I'd hit Woodland or the Far North......maybe the bloodvien.....man i got to get to work!

4 weeks all in one shot... There is plenty of room in Q to spend the whole time there and not cross your path once.

Last year my wife and I did a 30 day trip for our 3oth anniversary.
We left out of Beaverhouse and did a meandering loop all over the park.

I started with a whole trip plan - where we would go, stay, layover, etc.
Typical guy thing. We made it to the middle of Cirrus our first day and said, Wow we have 30 days in the park, where do we go from here.
We ended up decompressing for 3 nights at that campsite. Then we headed for Pickerel and when we got there, we said what's the rush, we have 30 days to see the park. After another layover day, I said, let's throw out the plan and just take what comes. It took me 5 days to get to that point. We ended up traveling about 1/2 the time. We ended up camping in 15 different spots in 30 days. It was a wonderful trip with a
wonderful mix of how we spent our time traveling and resting and just taking it all in. If we wouldn't have had kids, work, other responsibilities, ect. to contend with, we could have just kept on going. We hated to come home. It was amazing how my perspective changed over the 30 days, from hurry up and lets get there, to, we're here, what's the rush.

Now my problem is that our normal 2 week trip just doesn't seem long enough. I just have to figure out how to do a month every year.

I've been in a hurry my entire life, and it's served me well, mostly.  But when I'm in the QP, or the WCP, after a few days time slows down.  It's a great feeling.  I actually breath slower, think slower, and clearer. 

Last year, the last night of a tough 8-day trip, my buddies were talking about the cold beer, the greasy cheeseburger, the soft bed waiting them.  They asked me what I looked forward to.  With all honesty I told them I didn't want to go back.  I was ready to stay another week, two?  In short, I was in my groove...the bugs, the sore muscles, etc, -- the "hardships" of the trip -- all had become just background noise.  I paid no attention to any of it.  I was totally into that country, and felt a part of it. 

I've never stayed in for 30 days or even close to it, but I will soon.  The country defines me!
