We're in Iowa for the summer but are planning to leave in August to head west. One of the routes we are considering would lead us across the northern states and through Badlands as well as Glacier and Yellowstone parks. We haven't finalized that yet but I think that is the route we'd like to take.
I have some experience with 4E D&D and Pathfinder (I also played 1E and 2E back in the day as well). Most of the materials I plan to bring on the road will be minis and dungeon tiles, maps, a few modules (some Lair Assault and Encounters stuff I got from the shop), and dice. I have nearly all of the rule books in PDF format as well as many many adventures in PDF. I'll probably just print off what I need for each session and adjust the adventures to suit the materials I'll have on hand. Obviously, I'll need to be pretty selective in what I bring along... but it helps that so much of it is digitized.
I think I'm going to set up some sort of website that will, at the least, serve as a directory where people can leave their contact info for other gamers who may be in the area... I'm also hoping to blog about our gaming adventures on the road, assuming we can get regular events organized.
