 Everything on this road trip was incredibly beautiful and expansive. I felt very small, but empowered and inspired at the same time. The vastness of the space was such a change from living in Orem, and the openness was invigorating!

 The ranger was super serious about his job. He gave the kids Junior Ranger badges for completing the Ranger packets and told us all about the telescope in the store, rules about National Parks, and nature in general. It seems kind of lonely, but you'd definitely become appreciative of nature, meet some cool people, and know a lot about the world we live on by being a Ranger.


I felt like I was in a big coffee table "Best Road-trips in the USA" book
