Your best bet is to have one of your passengers plug addresses into your GPS and start at stop one and work your way through all the stops on the trail. This is a great family adventure for the price of a tank full of gas and some ice cream.

If you are counting your calories, you might want to sit down for this. Based on a family of four and having one half cup of soft serve ice cream at each stop you make, your family will consume, are you ready for this, 6,876 calories. But keep in mind that is a projected total for the family. So, have another sundae and watch the calorie wheel spin out of contol.
