[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That it took me so long to realize how gorgeous this country is. I spent my 20s going to Europe at every occasion. Im 40s now and my kids are now older elem and im trying to get as much as I can at our own national parks. I had no idea. It’s so embarrassing. [/quote]

Somewhat similar in that I'm well travelled globally but not so much within the US. I've seen the Grand Canyon and would love to go back to the SW. And every now and then I read about or hear about some amazing places, especially in the Western US. The problem, however, and it is a real problem, is that the logistics of such a trip are more challenging than going to Europe. You will spend a lot more time driving around, there are far fewer things to do at the destination, dining/hotel options are more limited. I find it intriguing that it's easier to fly to Switzerland and hike glorious mountains without too much preplanning because the infrastructure is specifically set up for that.

It's a cop out answer, and I do need to just sit down and focus on planning good trips through the Western parks and accept the reality it's going to involve a lot of long driving. [/quote]
