Great Basin to Lake Powell
From our home in San Diego, including the miles driven around the parks while there this was a 2,280-mile Great Basin to Lake Powell Road Trip

2 Days in Great Basin National Park
It was a long lonely drive through the Great Basin Desert and we were surprised by the terrain when we got to the park. There were mountains, lakes, streams, and forests to explore.

3 Days in Capitol Reef National Park
We did a lot of driving in the park and we enjoyed the Fruita Area, Hickman Bridge, and the switchbacks on Burr Trail Road.
Stop 3: Lake Powell and the Wahweap Marina

Lake Powell Resort/Wahweap Marina
We have been to Page, Arizona many times, this time for 4 days. There is so much to do around Page between the many geologic features, Navajo Tribal Land, and the lake. The highlight was the trip to Rainbow Bridge.
