The Great Circle

This year we took a long trip that spanned many western states. We called this vacation "The Great Circle". Below is the route that we took, all via our trusty Honda Odyssey minivan.

We stopped at Zion NP and travelled around looking at the sights. We didn't have a lot of time, so we didn't get to go very far into Zion. I'd like to come back and explore the rest of the park when we can dedicate a few days to it.
