After 1,095 days and more than 75,000 miles on the road, Mikah Meyer is home, having fulfilled his dream of visiting all 419 US national parks in a single, grueling journey. He claims to be the only person to have visited every US national park in a single journey. Days after the funeral, Meyer says he went on his first independent road trip as a way to grieve. In the park, Meyer encountered a wild Canadian goose that followed him around all day. There were only about 400 official national park sites when he started — that number grew to 419.
