It was also my first time flying @HawaiianAir, on the very last day they used their own callsign before switching to @AlaskaAir...
This year’s grand camping adventure covered 5,200 miles, reached 5 new states (Wyoming, Montana, Nebraska, North & South Dakota), and included sightings of 5 magnificent mammals:
🦬 Bison
🫎 Elk
🐏 Bighorn Sheep
🐺 Coyote
🦌 Pronghorn (the fastest land mammal in the Americas)
