"Eighty-four islands in the San Juan chain are wildlife refuges; of those, humans are allowed to visit only three."
- Timothy Egan

In June 2023, the call to travel hit me once more. With a new Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer, I set out from Las Vegas, bound for the rugged beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Limited by time, I had a plan that would push the limits of endurance and exploration. The goal: a 3,000 mile round trip, with at least 3 days of adventure in Washington's San Juan Islands, all in just over a week.
