On my bucket list is a trip out west in May or June of 2017 for my wife and I. We have a 35 foot Class A motor home with a tow vehicle. We have about 3 or 4 weeks and will be leaving from Louisville, Ky. We want to see the Grand Canyon, Mt. Rushmore, Bryce Canyon, and Yellowstone for sure but would like to see other places as well. We have no desire to go to Las Vegas or into California. Should we do reservations for campgrounds or just play it by ear? Any travel route ideas would be helpful as well. I know there's a bunch of places to visit. I really don't want to drive more than 6 hours per day. This will probably be the only chance we have to go so we want to see as much as possible. Thanks in advance for your help. All ideas are appreciated.
You'll definitely need reservations. We had wanted to do this in 2016 and everything was booked by Feb. We are now going in the fall of 2017 and have already started making the reservations we can. as others have said 3 to 4 weeks might be a little short as many of the places you have listed are good 3 day stays all by themselves.
Good luck
