Yes, but there are many parks we will pass through. I have contacted parks people, but they are somewhat cryptic. Many states are trying to encourage bicycle touring for economic benefits. No doubt you would agree...what better way to attract bike tourists then to assure them that they will have a piece of grass at the end of the day to pitch their tent? Anyways, just trying to hear from people with experience in Iowa on the general attitude of local park people with regard to finding camp space for people on bike in the event that the campground is full.
