Driving from the Natural Bridges Monument in Utah to Page, Arizona

Not everything is a National or State Park. Here the scenery covers over 200 miles but there are some picture perfect moments and breathtaking experiences.

John's Comments It will be remembered as a high point. Just driving down an unpaved road to the 200-300 feet valley below while holding the handle grips and then being able to see the Navajo mountains makes one realize why driving is still such a pleasure.
John`s Recollections - 2009

We took Hwy 261 to Mexican Hat from the Natural Bridges and with a quite exilarating, but rather intimidating drop off Cedar Mesa to the valley 1200 feet below. This part is known as the Moqui Dugway and those should be aware the highway deteriorates to a gravel road with steep inclines and 180 degree turns. Terrific scenery along the drive includes the Garden of the Gods and Monument Valley (Navejo Tribal mountains). A favorite drive, where the next time will entail many more stops on the descent to capture the moments.

Excellent

The Best Western Wetherill Inn is a short drive from the Monument Valley Tribal Park and the Navajo National Monument cliff dwellings. Travelers will also only be a couple of hours from the Four Corners, boating on Lake Powell or hiking in Grand Canyon National Park. For a taste of the scenic Southwest.
