The Itinerary Desk

Plan the parks properly.

Name the parks, the date, and where you set out from. Waypost composes the rest — the right airport or the right road, the day's weather, campsites and lodges, permits and timed entries, and every closure or fire notice worth knowing before you go.

Sources — weather & sun: NWS inside 7 days + Open-Meteo to 16 days (seasonal normals beyond). Alerts, photography, campgrounds, fees & nearby stamps: NPS API. Campsite availability: Recreation.gov (projected when its API refuses the browser). Drive times & mileage: OSRM open routing. Lodging & gas: OpenStreetMap. EV charging: AFDC (NREL) — the shared DEMO_KEY is rate-limited; drop your own free key into Tweaks if stops revert to curated. Flight suggestions stay curated — no open flight-schedule API exists. Always confirm before travel.
