Hello i need some advice.

I am travelling across the USA on the California Zephyr in late February and am considering a stopover and vehicle hire in Grand Junction. I would like to drive to the Grand Canyon visiting Arches, Monument valley, Lake Powell and the Grand Canyon.

I realise it will be cold, I don't mind, but have little experience driving in Snow and Ice.

Are there any particular things i should note, take care for and is heavy snow likely ?

Is a week enough for a relaxing circular tour and any particular places that you suggest stopping over and above those I have mentioned.

Thanks, Phil
