Arches National Park is home to some of the most iconic rock formations in Utah. As my mom and I road tripped around Utah, this was one of our favorite national parks. We aren’t alone. Arches National Park is a heavily trafficked park. It’s here that you find the iconic Delicate Arch (which is even …
Bryce Canyon National Park is stunning and it’s a must see for anyone traveling the southwestern United States. Most visitors will plan their visits for the warmer months when hiking is more enjoyable and the weather is more pleasant. However, Bryce Canyon National Park is open all year round, so it’s still possible to visit …

Zion National Park is beautiful. Ask anyone who’s ever visited and they’ll be sure to tell you about how amazing it is and how you could spend days exploring the park. Well, not everyone has days to spend at one park. So, I put together what I think is a perfect itinerary for one day …
It’s no secret that my first visit to Bryce Canyon didn’t go well. Rain and fog are not conducive to exploring a national park. But, I returned two and a half years later for redemption. I still haven’t done everything at Bryce Canyon National Park (the weather seriously has it out for me!), but I’ve …
