A good photo op. I was here at dawn so the lighting was OK, but there wasn't a line. Grants feels like a town of Scooby Doo-like haunted businesses, but this was a good little stop on the way out of town.

A very beautiful and peaceful drive through the desert. The road was washboard-y, but still nice to get out in the stark scenery of the Sonoran desert. I loved the towering Saguaro cactus. Navigating the roads wasn't too tough, but there was one point where I had to cross through a deep (1 foot) body of water. Water levels may vary, so def get out and check it before driving across it.

First off, this is in the wrong location; the tracks are further west closer to Parawan Gap.

My son and I enjoyed stopping here and going for a little stroll to stretch our legs. Some of the tracks are harder to find (The BLM has put metal posts to show you where they are) or to see, but seeing the actual size of the footprints was helpful to my 6-y-o son to really tell how big the footprints are. Plus he just liked the idea of knowing he was where dinosaurs had walked, even though the landscape looked totally different.

I had a fantastic stay here. There was a shuttle stop right in front of the hotel to take skiers to the resorts. The room was very modern, clean, and comfortable. There was a balcony attached to the room that overlooked the indoor courtyard. The hotel was right on the main strip, but not surrounded by the tourist shops. A great location.

A very fun little bar inside of a hostel. Pretty simple food (poutine) and good beer. A great place to meet other travelers.

A great swimming hole and a good camp site on the south bank. If you're camping, just be prepared for trains to go by all night.

Small park, but great for a leisurely stroll. The rangers are incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. This covers a part of American history often overlooked. If you're in the area, certainly check it out.

While I didn't spend the night here, the lobby was just as creepy as I hoped it would be.

This site was closed by the NPS a few years ago. A few people trashed it and so the decision was made to keep it off limits to preserve what's left of it. Please practice Leave No Trace when enjoying public lands.

My sister and I were on a cross-country road trip and I wanted some bbq. This was authentic and delicious. Go out of your way to eat here. I still dream of it 12 years later...
