No matter which direction you are headed, you're getting such a different experience. Up north, you've got winding roads through the canyons, cutting through massive pine trees and mountain peaks.

Head east and you'll see these wide open landscapes and rock formations that are dramatic and gorgeous. Travel west, and you'll see rugged beauty that makes you feel like you're in an old Western film!
