We had been advised to take the old I-28 out of Moab and wow that proved to be great guidance. What a scenic drive that was. We had the road pretty much to ourselves and it was so...

Tues 19th Sept

Having arrived pretty late at our hotel in Moab we hadn’t given ourselves any time to explore the town so this morning we made a big mistake and dilly dallied wandering up the Main...

Gooseneck proved to be every bit as scenic as we remembered from seeing it in Thelma and Louise and we were very pleased to have made it there during daylight hours.

We had a lazy morning taking advantage of our lovely room and the scenic view of the lake before making our way to the Navajo ticket office for the Upper Antelope Canyon. We hadn’t...

We stayed on at Horseshoe Bend long past sunset, leaving only when it became too dark to see much further than a few feet ahead. This was probably a good thing as we couldn’t really worry about the...

We woke feeling a bit reluctant to leave. We knew we had only scratched the surface of Zion and really wanted more time but it was already the start of our third (and last) week in...

Fri 15th Sept

Next morning after a so so (but free) buffet breakfast at the lodge we caught the shuttle bus back into the most beautiful park I’ve ever seen. I think I spent the entire day with my...

Definitely try to save some time for Zion. It’s stunningly beautiful and won’t disappoint. Just driving through is breathtaking but if you can spend a day there on some of the walks then do try to do...

Bryce Canyon really does not need any descriptions other than stunning. It’s very hard to capture the depth of colour, the vast beauty and the immense scale with our snapshots but...

Waking up feeling refreshed and ready for the road again we were tempted to backtrack the 40 or 50 miles in order to view Flaming Gorge in the daylight, but we also wanted to get to...

This proved to be a very tiring day for us as after dinner we had to get back on the road for our next leg of the journey which was another 300 miles to Vernal. Looking back we should have left...

Time to move on again and whilst we were reluctant to leave our cosy little home we were feeling happy about the days adventures ahead as we packed up the car and said cheerio to our...

Saturday morning and we were back on the road but only a short trip down to The Grand Tetons and our next cabin in the woods at Coulter Bay. The drive was scenic the entire way...
