We just returned from Utah after visiting Capitol Reef near Torrey, Arches, Monument Valley, Lake Powell, North Rim, Taos and Santa Fe. We toured Bryce and Zion a couple of years ago. We drove to the North Rim from Lake Powell. If you visit Capitol Reef don't miss the Utah 12 drive. I wouldn't take a larger camper on 12. We missed Canyonlands due to the government shut down. We stayed at Thousand Lakes in Torrey, Portal resort part in Moab, Wahweep on Lake Powell, and Gouldings in Monument Valley. Wahweep was one of the best campgrounds we have ever stayed in located in Glen Canyon recreation area. You should see Gooseneck State park just north of Monument Valley. The La Sal mountain loop was great with the leaves turning and the view of what looked like Arches from a distance. Page, Arizona (Lake Powell) was very interesting and scenic. If you visit Lake Powell take the dam tour. We left Tennessee September 6th and returned on October 9th.
