Plan a Summer Road Trip

April 26, 2007 - Tag: Camping Trips

There is a great site that my blogging buddy Drew from The Wired Kayaker turned me onto, and I just love it! It’s called America’s Byways®: National Scenic Byways Online, and the question on the site is, “Where do you want to go?” So I clicked on Nevada of course, and I got the Las Vegas Strip. Uh…okay. Not the kind of thing I was looking for. Onto my next search.

Southern Utah isn’t too far of a drive, and Dinosaur Diamond Prehistoric Highway looks like a fantastic place to visit!

Numerous sites are available to the public where bones and tracks are still visible in the ground.

How cool is that?

I love the Print-n-Go feature, where you can print maps, driving directions, visitor information, and any restrictions you may come across. It’s just so handy!

So if you’ve never seen this site, please go check it out. What a great way to plan a summer road trip with your family or friends this summer.

    We are huge camping fans and I thought I had everything possible for camping but… now I need hammocks.

    Note to self move to west coast to camp. East is to cold.

    Dinosaurs have always been my favorite! Southern Utah has a lot of cool outdoor sites to visit if you are into that kind of stuff.

    If you’re headed to southern Utah let me recommend heading to Zion National Park. Check out the Narrows and the Subway - two classic hikes for hardcore outdoor folk such as yourself. Thanks for the travel tips!
