Solo ride - extended version "full monty" trip

Three days seems kinda short, so if weather still holds, thought I'd try extending the trip a "wee" bit. Vegas is close to some really neat areas that I've never seen. So adding on visit to the Grand Canyon in Arizona, then up to Zion national park in Utah before heading around to Area 51 (Rachel, NV) seems a good option.

So here's my extended "full monty" tour, making it a full 5-day trip.

Five days. Four states. 1,839 miles; averaging 368 m
iles/day. Four national monument parks. Plus the sleepout in "Area 51"



ITINERARY:
  • Wed (Apr 15) - Folsom to Death Valley, CA via 395. [471 mi.]
  • Thurs - Death Valley to Grand Canyon, AZ via 93. [412 mi.]
  • Fri - Grand Canyon, AZ to Zion UT via 89. [248 mi.]
  • Sat - Zion UT thru Valley of Fire to Rachel, NV (Area51) via 15 and 93. [273 mi.]
  • Sun - Rachel NV to Yerrington NV then Folsom via 6 and 95 and 395. [434 mi.]
