American Driving Vacations

America’s Northern Rockies may strike most as the road less traveled, a remote place filled with images of the untamed West, cattle drives and rugged mountains. All these reflections are indeed true, yet out there in the serene quiet lies an incredible landscape filled with rich history and gorgeous scenery. Lush forests, dramatic waterfalls, clear fast flowing rivers and unspoiled vistas. Couple these natural treasures with the authentic hospitality of the residents and you will experience a holiday in true Americana style that is likely to be completely unique from anywhere you have traveled before. For those who want to get off the beaten path and explore the real American West, this is your trip. Instead of designing stops to which you have to make a mad dash, we’ve included stops that let you enjoy places along the way. Beyond Mount Rushmore and Badlands National Park, the region boasts Wind Cave National Park, Jewel Cave, Black Hills National Forest, Mammoth Hot Springs (different than the one in Yellowstone National Park) and the Old West town of Deadwood. We allow enough time for these to be more than a “drive-by.”

The same is true for Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons. By the time you follow the directions we provide, you will have reached all eight unique areas of Yellowstone National Park. At The Grand Tetons, you can get out into the back country, not accessible by automobile. In between these fascinating natural environments, Old West towns like Laramie, Cheyenne and Sheridan Wyoming welcome you. People still engage you and proudly explain what is special about their home town. The culture you’ll find out here lends itself to a timeless way of life and fits seamlessly into the landscape. Enjoy your journey. Not many travelers take the opportunity to explore these authentic places.
