    My wife I and drove from Chicago to Moab in February 2021. Couldn’t stand being locked up at home because of the pandemic. This was the best spur of the moment decision and trip we have ever made. Visited Arches park on Valentines Day and then visited Canyon Lands the next day before sunrise. Parks were empty. Such a beautiful trip. On the way home, visited friends in Breckenridge, Co.

    • @KevinEassa
      @KevinEassa  16 дней назад

      Most of the trails in here! One of the best parts about the Mighty 5 NP's is that there are an endless number of trails that are shorter 1-3 mile hikes and also plenty of places that you don't even need to hike at all. Some off of the top of my head - Double Arch, Park Avenue, Schaffer Trail Overlook, Mesa Arch, any viewpoint in Bryce, Temple of the Sun/Moon, Hickmann Bridge, Zion Canyon Overlook, Zion River Walk/Narrows

    not sure if you're around to read this Kevin but i had a question. Do any of the parks require a pass besides the one you stated? or any of the trails?

    • @KevinEassa
      @KevinEassa  Месяц назад +1

      The Federal National Parks Pass is the one we get every single year, it's good for all of the Mighty 5 National Parks. It is also good at some National Monuments and other places around the country. Utah state parks you pay for the day separate from the federal pass, or if you are going to visit enough of them there is a 'Utah State Park annual pass.' Most trails you are good to go. But certain trails you do need a permits (examples: Angel's Landing, The Subway). Hope this helps!

      For the mighty 5 parks you can take any tiny sedan. The places that need awd or 4WD specifically, I note in the video per location. Marlboro point would be a no, maybe temple of the sun and moon, others like hanksville factory butte you shouldn’t have any issues. Hope this helps!

    After how many days do the views start to loose there magic, after how many days are you like, okay, more cool rocks, seen this 100 times already. Did this happen after day 5, day 7? I watched someone's 8 day itinerary and they were like , Arches, blah... but early in the itinerary, they were gaga over things that didn't look nearly as nice. I was planning on spending 3 weeks doing the big 5, but now I am second guessing my decision and wondering if I should consolidate it.

      As a local Utahn, I can say that these parks never get old. I've been coming to these parks my whole life and I still haven't seen a fraction of what I want to see. And they are very diverse, actually.. It's really hard to get the scope, the beauty, the magic in a video.
      I would love to have 3 weeks to explore this area even though I've been there so many times.
      Petroglyphs, dinosaur 🦕 tracks, fossilized sea shells, NASA's secret Mars station in Capitol Reef, and, and.... There's too much to even mention and those are the little bonuses.
      If I was trying to put in too much mileage too quickly for my first time in heat of summer with the crowds, I might get overwhelmed.
      If you do your research, This will be a trip of a lifetime!
