San Juan County

Utah

Trail to rainbow bridge, accessible by backpacking trip or boat ride from lake Powell resort marina.
Normally I try to plan a general idea of what to do on a trip, but during the trip be up for spontaneity. After leaving Arches I decided to not go up to the expressway and back down to Goblin Valley State Park; instead I retraced part of my trip so I could stop by Arches National Monument and take HY-95. I am so very glad I did. It was by far the best stretch of road on my trip. I was stopping every few miles to get out and enjoy the view. From here I was able to get a complete 360 degree view of The sierra mountains and tributaries of Glenn Canyon. To give perspective; it was supposed to be a 4 hour drive that day. I started around 8 AM. I didn't get to Goblin Valley until 7 PM. This is a spectacular drive and one you should definitely plan to use as a way of connecting destinations on your trip.
This spot is called the House on Fire ruins in Mule Canyon, Utah. You can see exactly how it got the name! The ruins are from Ancestral Puebloan people who lived here over 700 years ago. Not only is a great spot for photos, it's rarely crowded because it's off the beaten path! #history #utah
World's largest natural bridge - worth the all day boat ride!
Spiritually important to the Natives of this area, these are the Bears Ears.

So far from anything, so hard to get to, but so worth it. The local Navajo Guides with Jeeps for hire will laugh when you say you're thinking of doing this 17-mile loop through the most famous buttes of Monument Valley in a small car, but go ahead and do it. Carefully. We saved $170 and were able to maneuver through the gulleys and rocks just fine. Driving ourselves enabled us to decide how long to spend at each spot, and whether to keep driving or get out and hike at our whim. Take water and lunch! #Navajo #MonumentValley #Arizona #landscape
