so my family's going on a western vacation this summer and they gave me the job to decide where to go. of course i have no idea what places there are to visit over there

. here's the general area of where we're gonna go:

we're not gonna just stay in 1 place, we're gonna drive around visiting a bunch of places. what are some good vacation spots over there?

The four corners seems like a good tourist trap.

Grand Canyon I guess, Area 51, not much in Utah that I know of, except for Mormons. Go Ken Jennings!

Mesa Verde and Grand Canyon. That's where I'm going this year, so you should too. Or you could go on down to Carlsbad Caverns (incredible caves there) and Los Alamos (place where they worked on the Atomic Bomb during WWII).

Area 51 is out of the circle. Utah has several state parks in the south, and it has me.

I'm going to California in a couple of weeks. If he came to Utah, he could chill with me (not really).

Here in Utah, we've got Arches Nat. Park, Bryce Canyon, Escalante, Lake Powell, Dinosaur Monument, Timpanogas Caves, Bonneville Flats( landspeed records made here ) Temple Square in Salt Lake, Park City-Sundance( Film Festival is only in January though )...

Much of the snow has melted so you can't really ski anymore this time of year.

Arizona: you got the Grand Canyon, Lake Havasu, Lake Mead/hoover/Boulder Dam that leads to Vegas...

farther north to Wyoming you've got Jackson Hole, Gerand Tetons, and Yellowstone Nat. Park...

New Mexico, Colorado ( what the others said... )

take your pic.

Hey vskid: What city you in?

WHOA!

Go to Lander, Wyoming! You can meet my family on vacation from Washington! We're staying at what I refer to as "the restaurant at the end of the universe". It's just a little diner literally in the middle of nowhere on a stratch of desert road with not even a building or tree in sight!
