The drive from Sedona to the Grand Canyon takes about two hours if you go straight there, making it perfect for a day trip. That being said, you might find yourself taking longer since there are so many beautiful places to stop along the way. If you don’t mind adding about 15 minutes to your […]
It would be hard to pick one single spot we like best on the Million Dollar Highway in Colorado, but Uncompahgre Gorge is certainly one that comes to mind. The highway will take you along the side of a cliff high above the gorge itself, which was created over centuries by the flow of the […]
