  “Red Rocks &; Bryce Canyon” RV Trip. ( 9 nights on the road)
  
  This RV trip will be fun for Hikers, Photographers, Birders, Museum goers,
  and anyone who enjoys magnificent landscapes. We will use Rt. 89 and
  89A to explore the area’s of National Parks and National Monuments. The
  trip is designed for Sundowners to explore areas by themselves or tag with
  other folks. There is much to see!
  
  It takes 2 days to get to Bryce Canyon, so we will stay south of
  Flagstaff, first night. Second day we move north again to stay in Bryce
  Canyon City. Bryce Canyon can be explored by driving your vehicle,
  catching a free shuttle or hiking. There are nearby shops to explore in Old
  Bryce Town, which are set in “Old West” tradition. Also nearby is Cedar
  Breaks National Mon. A natural amphitheater which spreads for 3 miles.
  Kodachrome Basin about 20 minutes away is filled with natural wildlife
  (Golden Eagles, Condors, etc.) 67 towering sedimentary rock chimneys, all
  housed in a state park. Kodachrome is also noted for its light pollution free
  night skies for stargazing.
  
  The next leg of the trip will spend some time in “Little Hollywood”
  Kanab, UT. There are great museums, art galleries, and eateries. You
  may want to stop on the way to visit the “Best Friends Animal Sanctuary”
  which welcomes human guests to tour. Best Friends is a no kill sanctuary
  that houses 1700 animals of all kinds on over 3700 acres. Everything from
  horses, dogs and cats , goats and exotic birds make this place their home.
  At night in Kanab we have an opportunity to take in “S’Mores and Stars”,
  which is a campfire with storytellers, homemade marshmallows, and fun on
  an old filming set where The Lone Ranger was filmed.
  
  A day trip might include a visit to The Pipe Spring National
  Monument. This is an early fort and settlement, used by American Indians
  and eventually other settlers. Take a tour of the Winsor Castle while you
  are there.
  
  After a two night stay we take off and venture out on RT 89A on a
  slower meandering drive and viewing the Vermillion Cliffs. You will pass by
  a ghost town, and a small town of Jacob Lake which has a Visitor Center
  run by the US Forest Service, because it is the gateway to the North Rim of
  the Grand Canyon. There is also a small cafe and bakery! We’ll continue
  our drive back to Flagstaff for our last night on the road.
