Us89 hopefully will be reopened in may 2015 but too late for the OP.

Not a problem from Page to the parkinglot for Horsesshoe bend off us89. Climb the hill and descend to the rim. Be careful no fence and HSB is best visited in the morning/midday.
Don't miss the exit...

Didnot know that. Thanks for mentioning. We were there before the constructions.

I also think Tusayan will be a better place if you want to see a bit of GCNP. Afaik dogs are not allowed in the GCNP lodges. Tusayan to ABQ already easily will take 7 hours just driving so I don't...

Fastest way to get from Palm Springs to GC is to take I10 east to Desert center and 177 and 62 to Vidal Junction. Then head north to I40 via us95 and east to Williams before taking az64 to GC...

If you want to drive hw1 between Monterey and Cambria and take in the views it will take at least a full day from SF to Pismo Beach and it's even recommended to take 2 overnight stays o the way. 101...

Hopefully you will find the time but GC Village to Monument Valley is 3.5 hours drive without stops and you will want to stop along the rim. You also will lose one hour for timedifference. Monument...

We often use www.drive-usa.de for carrental. Good service and reliable. We rented cars from Newark bit cheaper than from NY but actually I suggest to take public transport (train) between NY, Philly...

Yosemite always is worth the detour but you didnot tell what time of year you are coming.
Just for the record. Pacific Coast hw is the name for the coastal stretch between San Clemente and Oxnard....

Make your reservations for Yosemite asa possible and it's also good to make them for DVNP. Maybe wildflowers are blooming in the desert when you're coming. Did you know there are plenty of wineries...

Are you relocating that RV from the factory to Seattle?
From Chicago on the way to Black Hills you'll come along Wisconsin Dells, you can wander of the interstate at the border of Wi and MN and see...

Suggest to stay Santa Monica instead Venice. You can see Venice in the daytime if you wish but I much prefer Santa Monica for a stay. Morro Bay is good but the big factory (closed but too expensive...

You know a car like that is tiny and I would not recommend it for a long roadtrip like yours. Very little trunkspace and you'll prob have a lot including camping gear.

Your 1st post in here but not your first road trips forum ;)
I'd take option 4 or actually option 5. I'd skip a night in Grand Canyon and Las Vegas/San Francisco and add 2 nights in Yosemite between...

Try to add Sedona between GC and Phoenix. What are you plans for Phx? Palm Springs has the Aerial Tramway that should not be missed. 20 miles west of PS you'll find Cabazon with great outlet...

Here's an idea for a 14 days trip.
1,2: Los Angeles
3. LA-Death Valley NP
4. DVNP-Las Vegas
5. Las Vegas-Grand Canyon south rim (make a reservation)
6. GCNP-Sedona
7. Sedona-Tucson
8....

Both routes from DVJ to Las Vegas are good. We usually take 160 (Blue Diamond hw) If you take Badwater rd/178 to Shoshone you also can drive Old Spanish trail from Shoshone to 160 bypassing Pahrump...

Some 2100 miles and I also suggest not to drive that long each day. Via Amarillo-Denver-Salt lake City-Boise. I'd take I70/us6 between Denver and Salt Lake City. I70 is very scenic rather than I80....

Count on 8-9 hours between OC and SR, 6 hours between SR and Bryce and 9 hours between Bryce and OC. Full day at GC is recommended but make a reservation www.grandcanyonlodges.com If booked call for...

You are planning a lot in only 10 days. Hope you don't mind some very long daydrives.
1: Denver get to Estes Park
2: RMNP
3: RMNP to Grand Teton NP (there's your first very long daydrive)
4,5,6:...

Your only concern for the route Midwest Michael gave you will be the stretch between Mesquite NV and St. George Ut where I15 climbs through Arizona. From I10 to I40 it's a flat drive between Blythe...

Suggest to fly San Francisco first. You don't need a car in SF. Then from SF get to Yosemite. San Francsico-Yosemite-Death Valley-Las vegas-Zion-Bryce-Page-Grand Canyon-Los Angeles-San Francciso will...

Hi
3 days is ok for the drive between SF and LA but you also can take a week. I'd plan another stay between Big Sur and LA like in Pismo Beach or Avila beach.
Joshua Tree will be very hot indeed....

Depends on where you are staying in DV. From Stovepipe Wells it is 3 hours to Las Vegas and 2.5 hours from Furnace Creek. That's without stops.

You could try this:
17. Drive to Yosemite
18. Yosemite
19. Drive to Seki
20: Seki to Ridgecrest (see some of seki, 198 is a very winding stretch, take 178 between Bakersfield and Ridgecrest)...
