Natural Wonder
Our Take
This is, without question, the most iconic drive in America. It really does represent the soul of the road trip and has been featured in media from cartoons to spaghetti Westerns and everything in between. It’s a landscape that isn’t just pretty, it’s profound, and you really get a sense for the big sky Wild West. Top off your gas and grab extra water before heading off on the drive through Navajo tribal land. Reception should be good if you stay on the main roads, but it can be fun to veer off the beaten path, too. If you do, bring a map and plot your course in advance. And, it helps to know that the buttes are larger-than-life massive, so they will take longer to drive up to than you would think!
