Report

Ran this route from the Wyoming border to the Iowa border to raise awareness of carbon monoxide poisoning.  I lost my son to carbon monoxide poisoning on 8/31/2022.  I wanted to spread the word so that this does not happen to any other families.  This route is mostly on highways and travels through several of the bigger towns and cities in Nebraska.  Once I got to Lincoln, the route was mostly crushed limestone trail and gravel roads.  I had a crew of people traveling with me to re-supply with food and water.  It was 100 degrees on the first day and some of the towns/gas stations are several miles apart so it would be necessary to carry a lot if someone tackles this route unsupported.
