Roadtrippers Magazine

roadtrippers.com — North-America-leaning road trip routes and stops, often hitting roadside oddities. Feed validated 2026-07-03. Demoted weekly → as-needed 2026-07-13: live but dormant — newest feed item is 2026-06-09 (5+ weeks), and it has produced nothing across 3+ consecutive runs; what it does publish is round-up/listicle content ('20 National Park lodges'), not the single specific places this site captures. 2026-08-04: feed returns 200 with 24 entries, newest 2026-06-09 — roughly eight weeks stale. Already as-needed; revisit for fetch:skip if nothing new appears by 2026-09. 2026-08-07: unchanged — 24 entries, newest still 2026-06-09, now nine weeks stale. The 2026-09 fetch:skip decision stands. 2026-08-08: feed live but newest entry is 2026-06-09 (~60 days). Second consecutive empty run. Held at as-needed; watch for the one-year dormancy line. 2026-08-09: feed live, newest entry still 2026-06-09 — now ~9 weeks stale and the third consecutive empty run. Held at as-needed; the 2026-09 fetch:skip decision stands. 2026-08-10: feed still parses; newest entry unchanged at 2026-06-09, so nothing has published in two months. Already as-needed; not yet a year stale, so no skip. 2026-08-11: **the feed has refreshed.** Newest entry is now 2026-08-10 ('From First Mile to Final Stop: 4 Essentials for a Better Road Trip'), ending the two-month dormancy that the 2026-09 fetch:skip decision was based on — that decision is withdrawn. The new item is still round-up/listicle content and produced no find, so the source stays as-needed on signal quality rather than on liveness.
