Interesting places in the USA
 

Hi all

Just planning a 6 month trip through the USA and I'm looking for the out of the way places state side, those places off the tourist beaten track that are a must to see.
Also looking for fellow riders to meet up on my travels over there.

Supai, Arizona
North Rim of the Grand Canyon
Big Bend National Park
Terlingua, Texas

If you like nature, then you should spent a lot of time in Utah, just amazing scenery there. You can also camp free of charge in Bonneville Salt Flats (100 miles west from Salt Lake City).
Another amazing place is Anteloupe canyon NE from Grand Canyon. This is really busy touristic place and you need to prebook a trip (it is in Indian lands), but canyon is truly amazing.

Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada -area is full of wonders.

Have a read of "Blue Highways" by William Least Heat-Moon, he takes you on a journey through all the intriguing tucked away places in America.

Southern Colorado!
 

Maker sure to get to southern Colorado and pick up a copy of the Colorado Pass Book. There is a ton of very interesting mining infrastructure and some great roads.

Have a look at these site's, routes downloadable to Garmin Mapsource

Trans America trail from Colorado to Oregon.

Moab Utah for Arches NP and the fantastic Chicken corners - White rim and Shaffer trails. You can free camp up a quiet single track paved road opposite the entrance to Arches NP - this also puts you at the start point for the trails.

Have fun
