Midwest road trip - Highlights
New Mexico
Santa Fe - super weird/interesting architecture
Rio Grande Gorge Bridge - Scary!
Canyons - Arizona/Utah
Kayaked by the Antelope Canyon - must!
Visited the North Rim of the Grand Canyon - truly Grand, with much fewer people than in the South Rim, nature
Zion Canyon - Mandatory Hike: Angel's landing
Nevada
Las Vegas - don't stay there for more than 2 days
Hoover Dam - engineers will be impressed
Utah - non-canyon
Salt Lake City - Noice!
Yellowstone
Came through the west entrance. Definitely do the top loop.
For an ultimate nature experience, I suggest camping overnight in a tent. Woke up at 3 am to about 50 howling wolves
