We rented a Twisted Jeep, drove a few of the 4WD roads, he’d probably like the views from the Jeep.

We had no one in any of our pictures- and we took many of them. People we genuinely helpful and accommodating - especially if asked. Get there about 45 min before sunrise and you’ll have no competition for set up.

Cedar Breaks National Monument and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon are closed for the season due to snow accumaulation at their higher altitudes. Bryce Canyon's rim also ranges from 8-9000 feet on the Pahsunguint Plateau, but the visitor center remains open year round. The scenic drive and other roads and trails within the park can close at any time during the winter/spring season due to weather conditions, so check the park website. Canyonlands, Arches, Capitol Reef, Grand Staircase-Escalante, Vermillion Cliffs and Glen Canyon NRA remain open year round, although some facilities and trails may be cl osed. Again, check each park's website for current information. Overall, you shouldn't have much of a problem because Utah's canyon country gets a lot less snow than you do in Golden. Remember the blizzard of '83 or the series of spring snowstorms in 2007? I do, and that is why I no longer live in the front range.

No, I stayed in the new hotel in Moab, the Hoo Doo.

Am trying to book through Hotelscom... was quoted $650 for 3 nights in April (Ouch!).... will definitely check out Blanding hotels for plan B. Thanks for the tour recommendation too!

No tour needed. Drive your car yourself to all the lookouts.

Canyonlands is Utah's largest national park and it's good to be aware of what it can offer to each other, in order to take advantage of the time available in the most intelligent way possible. If you have a couple of hours to visit the area, as well as reach the sights by car, you could also do the short loop-trail (less than a mile walk in total) that takes you to Mesa Arch, a wonderful natural arch right on the edge of the mesa, perfect setting for the sunset. The trail's attack is about 10 km after the Visitor Center. Or you could take another fascinating trail, the Upheaval Dome Trail, which leads to a huge crater that is said to have been caused by the fall of a meteorite. The trail's attack (which is a little more than a mile in total, but can also be traveled on to a lesser extent) is reached by continuing the road past the Mesa Arch car park for about 8 km. sorry for the bad translation

Hi. Our van was 31 feet and there were no problems. We saw several touring buses.
