Hello, Columbus: Dispatch readers share tips — and photos — from their trips

The Columbus Dispatch
CALIFORNIA 
Michael Davis of San Diego and Tom Tuohy of Columbus after summiting the highest peak in Southern California, Mount San Gorgonio at 11,503 feet. Because the trail is so popular, they recommend visiting on a weekday to enjoy the breathtaking beauty without the crowds. Leaving on a Friday, they encountered only 9 other hikers all day during their 19-mile journey.
MAINE
Mike and Amy Migliore pose at Jordan Pond and the Bubbles in Arcadia National Park. They suggest that visitors make reservations to go up Cadillac Mountain. Or go in the spring when crowds are light and no reservations are required.

The pandemic has taken a toll on travel, but many people are starting to venture to destinations that they only dreamed of visiting the past two-plus years.

Or maybe you are staying a bit closer to home for your adventures, and that's great, too!

Hello, Columbus would love to have a photo of you and your family or friends at your travel destinations.

Regardless of whether you are sending us a photo from near or far, choose a vacation photo showing you, your companions and the Travel page, and send it to The Dispatch.

Make sure to include the names and hometowns of the people pictured, from left to right; where the photo was taken; a tip to help other travelers; and contact information for you in case we have questions. But please, no submissions from previous years.
