The trip in short
From Las Vegas to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, for the sunset. Three nights in Sedona, on trails through red rock and canyons like Oak Creek. Further south, near Tucson, the giant cactuses of Saguaro National Park stand in the Sonoran Desert; at Scottsdale, Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West. Hoover Dam is on the way back to Vegas. Arizona's national parks in the Southwest; on horseback among the saguaros: dude ranches in Arizona.
