Montezuma Castle and Well in Camp Verde, Arizona proved to be a great stop on my driving trip across the state.
In one of the few occasions of our getting the timing right, we took a walk through Golden Canyon to Cathedral Rock early in the morning when the light was just right. The colours in the rocks were just amazing.
The Grand Circle is comprised of six National Parks: Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Mesa Verde, and Zion.
Rocks State Park is located in Jarrettsville, MD and there are great natural, dense wooded hiking trails, a wonderful waterfall, and a 190-foot rock outcrop called The King and Queen Seat. The movie 'Tuck Everlasting' was filmed in this park and features all of the aforementioned attributes to the area.
The waterfall (Kilgore Falls) in the Falling Branch section of the park is Maryland's second highest vertical drop waterfall.
Skull Rock, found in Joshua Tree National Park near 29 Palms, California is an impressive stop for those that venture into the park. The other worldly formations are something to behold as you travel the place where "the streets have no names." (Thank you to U-2 from providing some perfect travel music!)
Of course, no visit to Joshua Tree National Park would be complete without taking the time to spend some time admiring the namesake of the park. The landscape and unique vegitation makes you truly feel as though you are visiting another world.
Go to a desert... Need to find an oasis.

The destination is never the focus of a road trip. The best experiences and photos are along the path to get there.
