We did Vegas. Grand Canyon and Death Valley in August 2018. Flew into Vegas and stayed a couple of nights before driving east. Stopped and did the Skywalk, where I learned about my fear of heights. Then we drive to Williams, AZ and took the train up to the Grand Canyon. That was a great trip. We went from 100°+ to 70° and showers in Williams at 7500’. On the way back we drove down to Sedona. That was a beautiful drive down from the Mogollon Rim. Back to Vegas for a day and then over to Death Valley, which is a totally surreal landscape. I was hoping for 120° but only got 119° on the big thermometer. This year we are driving out to Mt.Rushmore and Yellowstone.
