What is the break down in costs...i.e.gas, rooms,...etc?

You can go cheap on food and housing by camping or splitting a cabin or a condo, and eating from Sams/Costco out of a cooler, and a grill.  Here are the hard costs to consider:
- Housing: ~$500 for 7 nights splitting a condo 3 ways if you do it in advance and negotiate.  You can camp primitive for about $10 a night.
- Optional hotel 1x each way: $200
- Food: 2-3 days out, 2-3 days back, Cooler of cold cuts and drinks, trail cooler every day, and some eating out for $250-$400
- Fuel:  1780 miles for 3560/ 14 mpg towing diesel x $3.50 = ~$900.( We got 10 mpg towing double and and spent $1250.00)
- Jeep Fuel:  About a half tank a day average or $40 for $280

So for 1 person:

Primitive trip:  $1500

Condo trip realistically:  $2300 - $2800 with no shopping  ;D

When I get a trailer and make this trip again, I will be camping. There were some really nice spots right on the Colorado river. They had a bathroom and running water aka, toilet and faucet, but it would work fine. I like to rough it anyway and it would be great to chill by the fire every night. If you can keep out of town and buying stuff you can do it on a budget. But it's hard to keep out of the brewery and other food joints. Good eatin there. I will miss not having the jeep this year but anyway I can get out there is fine by me!! {letseat}
I've grown tired of this.
