Western USA (Black Hills, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Utah & Arizona canyon country)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

The Western USA is home to some of North America's most dramatic and iconic landscapes, stretching from the Black Hills of South Dakota through the geothermal wonders of Yellowstone and the soaring peaks of Grand Teton National Park, down into the canyon country of Utah and Arizona. Yellowstone sits atop one of the world's largest supervolcanoes, famous for geysers like Old Faithful and abundant wildlife including bison, wolves, and grizzly bears. Utah's red rock terrain — spanning Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches, and Canyonlands — draws hikers, climbers, and photographers, while Arizona's Grand Canyon remains one of the most awe-inspiring geological formations on Earth. Travellers come for epic road trips, world-class hiking, wildlife spotting, stargazing in some of the darkest skies in the country, and the freedom of wide-open American wilderness.

Parks & Canyons Spectacular — Self-Launched

A self-launched version of Globus's 14-day coach tour from Rapid City to Las Vegas, covering the Black Hills, Little Bighorn, Cody, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Salt Lake City, Bryce Canyon, Zion, Lake Powell, Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon. Instead of a 46-seat coach and tour director, you drive or ride a mix of rental car / Greyhound / Amtrak and book campsites, hostel dorms and budget motels direct. All park lands are public — entry is via the America the Beautiful annual pass (~£63), and nearly every "included activity" on the original (Old Faithful, Mammoth Hot Springs, Jenny Lake, Bryce hoodoos, Zion shuttle, Grand Canyon rim) is free to do yourself. Costs below assume a solo traveller sharing a rental car and fuel with 1–3 other travellers where possible; driving solo materially raises the transport line. All figures are rough estimates.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Western USA (Black Hills, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Utah & Arizona canyon country) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
