There is a trail that cross the continent through the US. It’s callled the **[American Discovery Trail](http://www.discoverytrail.org/)**. There was a recent article in Backpacker magazine about the folks who originally walked the route 20 or 25 years ago. You might want to look for some back issues in your local library.
