US Trip in April 2012

US Trip in April 2012 - Low angle of road sign with Route 66 End of the Trail inscription located near fast food restaurant against cloudy evening sky on Santa Monica Beach

I'm planning a Southwest / Pacific trip during the first 15 days of April (more or less). I though to fly to San Francisco and, after a quick tour of the city (2 days?), rent a car and follow this way: Yosemite National Park, Sequoia National Park, Death Valley, Las Vegas, Bryce, Antelope, Monument Valley, Grand Canyon and back to Las Vegas to keep the return fly.

If I read enough about this area (really big), it's possible to found some road closed during this period and the temperature could be really cold at Yosemite and Sequoia. Is it correct? The problem is that we have our vacation period only in April, so, what do you suggest about this way? Is it possible to follow it during this period or will find bad weather conditions (like rain or cold)?

What should be the best US area to visit during the first mid of April?



Best Answer

If you do make it out to Las Vegas area I would recommend Red Rocks outside of the city it is worth the time. Beautiful area and you can drive thru it and also get out and stretch your legs thru part of it too. You can see some neat petroglyphs that aren't to far off the road. it you don't make it that far make sure to visit the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco by at least walking across it near sunset or sunrise it is a great site to see.
