Caught the Bug
Hey guys, so the wife are looking to do a little getaway trip out west over my birthday (Dec 25th...no Im not jesus) over new years. We would like to spend new years in vegas, so the trip will be from late december into early january.
We will be departing from NJ, and drive straight through Kansas, and at that point, Im all ears. Here are some preferences that we would like you to consider when suggesting destinations...
1) Obviously, it is the dead of winter, and time is limited, so going to a place that may or may not be snowed over would kill too much time, so only places with drivable snow....alone.
2) Jeeping is a priority, so some awesome trails to some amazing destinations.
So far, all I have on my radar are the white sand national monument dunes, maybe check out grand staircase escalante, and valley of the gods. It has also been a dream of mine to check out Moab in the winter, so I may give that a shot, depending on weather conditions.
Anything else you guys can suggest that's worth a stop? Keep in mind, we are alone, no other vehicles, so nothing too hardcore.
P.S. If any of you are along my route, would love to meet up a grab a bite, or hit a scenic trail. Would be great to have a local guide.
