Road trip to Arizona / Utah Boarder
Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2009 2:19 am
Hey Guys,
My sister-in-law and nephew are coming in town in couple of weeks and I'm working on planning a road trip. I'd like to make a 4 day / 3 night trip with 2 nights camping and 1 night in a hotel. Camping three nights in a row is too much for the girls so I'd like to do the hotel on the second night between the camping.
We're planning to head to the Arizona / Utah boarder. The idea for the trip started with Antelope Canyon and since we want to make it a 4 day trip I'm working on adding additional destinations. Thanks to NVSteve's post it looks like Monument Valley and Bryce Canyon are good places to consider. Monument Valley looks closer to Antelope Canyon so I'm thinking those would be two good places. Steve also had pictures of the Wave, but I haven't planned enough ahead for that. It looks like there could be some other good hikes in that area in the Paria Canyon.
I'm trying to plan the itinerary and am looking for input that anyone has such as places they have camped, lodged, or eaten. Hiking or driving trails you've enjoyed. Any input is appreciated and I'll post pics after the trip for everyone to see.
