Bachan - I did a trip very similar to this a long time ago, visiting the Grand Canyon, Arches, Zion, Monument Valley and a number of other places. I've also done Sedona. You will have a blast! The geographic variety in the US is mind boggling! You should get up to Yellowstone if you have a chance.

I didn't see Yosemite National Park listed on your list! It is amazing! I just went a couple months ago and I was blown away!

Hi Bachan ... hope you're having a great time! I agree with Randi -- you should make the loop up north to Yellowstone (or at least into Wyoming & Idaho and northern Colorado & Utah) if you don't mind adding a few miles between Moab and Cedar City. And Yosemite National Park is awesome, too.

Yes you are right , yosemite is amazing , I was there 2 yrs back around the same time . We were mostly camping in the Tioga pass area, it is amazing at this time of the year with snow covered monutains and some of the lakes partially snow covered.
