In the morning we will drive to the West Canyon. You can choose to take a helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon at your own expense, or visit the world's highest skywalk glass bridge located on the edge of the canyon. It is suspended above 4,000 feet above sea level, costing 60 million US dollars and can withstand the weight of 71 Boeing 747 aircraft (about 71 million pounds) at the same time. We will then arrive at St. George.
Itinerary:
Las Vegas → West Canyon (3.5 hours, you can take the glass bridge and helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon at your own expense) → St. George
*If you choose not to visit the West Canyon during your trip, you can move freely in the hotel.
West Rim
The West Canyon is the western end of the long Colorado Canyon, also known as the West Canyon, or the Grand Canyon West Rim. The West Canyon is a protected area of the Hualapai Indians, developed by investors and not managed by the Grand Canyon National Park. The West Canyon is within three hours of Las Vegas. A U-shaped glass corridor has been built here for everyone to experience the height and excitement of the canyon.
West Rim Skywalk
The West Canyon Glass Bridge was conceived by the Chinese and took 10 years to plan and build. It is known as the eighth wonder of the world. The project is unprecedented and can withstand strong winds, magnitude 8 earthquakes, and the weight of 20,000 people. The glass bridge is horseshoe-shaped and more than 1,000 meters above the ground. The bottom of the entire bridge is made of glass, which is enough to test the courage of tourists. Standing on the glass bridge, overlooking the Grand Canyon and the Colorado River more than 1,000 meters below, you can feel the freedom of walking in the clouds.

Today we will go to the Lower Antelope Canyon. We will pass through Glen Canyon, where the second largest artificial lake in the United States, Lake Powell (by car), is located. It is surrounded by 96 canyons, as if it is another Grand Canyon located on a lake. The Lower Antelope Canyon is one of the top ten famous photography locations in the world. We will follow the Navajo Indian guide to explore their reserve. Then we will go to Horseshoe Bend, one of the top ten best photography locations in the United States selected by National Geographic Magazine. After lunch, we will go to Monument Valley. The magnificence of Monument Valley is difficult to describe in words. Huge sculptures stand on the red wilderness.
Itinerary:
St. George → Glen Canyon (pass by, drive to Lake Powell) → Lower Antelope Canyon (own expense, 90 minutes) → Horseshoe Bay (60 minutes) → Monument Valley (120 minutes, jeep ride at own expense) → Branding
Lower Antelope Canyon
The Lower Antelope Canyon is located in northern Arizona, USA. It is formed by various erosion forces over millions of years from soft sandstone. Flash floods often flow into the canyon during the monsoon season. Due to the sudden increase in rainfall, the flow rate of the flash flood is quite fast. In addition, the narrow channel shrinks the river channel, so the vertical erosion force is relatively large, forming the corridor at the bottom of the Lower Antelope Canyon and the hard and smooth edges on the valley wall that look like flowing water. There is no artificial lighting in the Lower Antelope Canyon. All visible light comes from the cracks at the top of the canyon. These lights are repeatedly refracted by the rock texture and enter the valley floor, producing dreamy and irregular color changes. These colors range from deep to shallow, colorful and beautiful.
Horseshoe Bend
Horseshoe Bay – One of the top ten best photography spots in the United States selected by National Geographic! The dense aquatic plants on the Colorado River bed make the river water appear fluorescent green under the sun. The river turns 360 degrees in the reddish-brown canyon here, cutting out a horseshoe-shaped canyon, hence the name Horseshoe Bay. Standing on the edge of the cliff, you will be intoxicated by the breathtaking beauty of the blue water, blue sky, and red rocks.
Monument Valley
Monument Valley began to appear in many media in the 1930s and is a symbol of the original American West. It is most famous in many westerns by American director John Ford, including "Stagecoach" and "The Searchers". The cross-country race in director Robert Zemeckis's "Forrest Gump" ended here. The magnificence of Monument Valley is difficult to describe in words, with huge sculptures standing on the red wilderness. This is a place where desolate and wild music resonate, and a sacred place for the sublimation of life and soul.

In the morning, we will go to Arches National Park to explore the world's largest collection of natural sandstone arches. The deep orange arches have withstood the erosion of wind and rain for tens of millions of years and still stand proudly on this salt layer. In the afternoon, we will drive to Salt Lake City. First, we will appreciate the Utah State House, which is like a palace, and visit the most luxurious and magnificent state capital in the United States. Afterwards, we will visit the famous "Temple Square" and be led by a Mormon sister to visit this holy place. Then we will visit the Great Salt Lake, the "Dead Sea" of the United States.
Itinerary:
Brandin → Arches National Park (2 hours) → Utah State Capitol (30 minutes) → Temple Square (45 minutes) → Great Salt Lake (20 minutes) → Hotel
Arches National Park
Arches National Park is located near the town of Moab in Utah, USA. It covers an area of 309 square kilometers and preserves more than 2,000 natural rock arches. About 300 million years ago, this salt layer was an ocean. Millions of years after the sea disappeared, the salt layer was covered by air and water debris, and squeezed into rock with other debris. Later, after the uplift of the earth's crust and natural weathering, it became the arches of today. There are not only arches in the park, but also many large and small spires, bases, balancing stones and other unique geological features; all the stones have textures with very strong color contrast.
Utah State Capitol
The Utah State Capitol is located in Salt Lake City. The size and shape of the building are comparable to the Capitol Hill in Washington. The top of the State Capitol is a Byzantine-style dome, which shines brilliantly under the sunlight. The interior of the building is even more magnificent and meticulously carved. The walls are made of polished marble, the ceiling is painted with exquisite murals, and countless finely carved statues of people stand in it, lifelike. In addition, since Utah is also known as the "Beehive State", a beehive sculpture is placed in a prominent place in front of the building, which is one of the attractions that tourists who come here must take photos.
Temple Square
Salt Lake City, Utah is the global Mormon base. It is a group of buildings in the center of Salt Lake City, Utah, belonging to the headquarters of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormonism). It includes the Salt Lake City Temple, the Salt Lake City Tabernacle, the Salt Lake City Assembly Hall, the Seagull Monument and two visitor centers, covering an area of 10 acres.
Great Salt Lake
The Great Salt Lake is the second largest saltwater lake in the world and the largest inland salt lake in North America. It is located in western Utah, USA, with the Rocky Mountains to the east and the desert to the west. It consists of 10 islands. It is also a wildlife sanctuary, attracting millions of migratory birds every year. The salt content of the lake water here is as high as 25%, second only to the Dead Sea. Only some algae that can tolerate high salinity can survive in the lake.

In the morning, we will depart from Salt Lake City and drive to the world's first national park - Yellowstone National Park. Along the way, you will see endless grasslands and hills; cattle and sheep everywhere; snow-capped mountains that reach the sky; rivers that flow endlessly; and hardworking cowboys. The colorful Grand Prismatic Hot Springs, the colorful palette, the world-famous Old Faithful, the romantic and charming Yellowstone Lake, the majestic and beautiful Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, the galloping Upper Falls, the colorful and misty North, and close-up viewing of wild animals... The excitement will come one after another!
Itinerary:
Salt Lake City → Yellowstone National Park (3 hours, visit Palette, Grand Prismatic Hot Spring, Old Faithful Geyser, Fountain Trail and other attractions. The tour guide may make adjustments based on the actual situation of the day. Please refer to the actual arrangement)
Yellowstone National Park
Located in the Rocky Mountains, known as the "backbone of America", it is located on the lava plateau between the Northern Rockies and the Central Rockies in the western United States. Geothermal wonders are its hallmark, a primitive landscape of the earth hammered by water and fire. The natural landscape in the park is divided into five major areas, namely the Mammoth Area, the Roosevelt Area, the Canyon Area, the Geyser Area and the Lake Area, each with its own characteristics. It exceeds the limits of human art and is the most wonderful and spectacular beauty on the surface of the earth.
The Grand Prismatic Hot Spring
Also known as the Seven Color Pool, it is the largest hot spring in the United States and the third largest in the world. It is 75-91 meters wide and 49 meters deep. It gushes out about 2,000 liters of 71-degree hot water every minute. The amazing thing about the Grand Prismatic Spring is that the color of the lake changes with the seasons. In spring, the lake changes from emerald green to golden orange-red, which is due to the algae and pigment-containing bacteria living in the mineral-rich water. In midsummer, the chlorophyll content is relatively low, so the lake water appears gorgeous orange, red or yellow. But in the cold winter, due to the lack of light, these microorganisms will produce more chlorophyll to inhibit the color of carotenoids, so the water will appear deep dark green.
Old Faithful Geyser
The Old Faithful Geyser is named for its consistent and regular eruption. Currently, it erupts approximately every 60 to 110 minutes, and each eruption lasts for four to five minutes. The water column is more than 40 meters high, which is spectacular and never stops. The Old Faithful Visitor Center will display the eruption schedule in advance, so you can check the eruption time in advance before you go to visit.
Yellowstone Palette Fountain Paint Pot
Palette is a mud fountain. The mud and rocks contain minerals, which are melted by the acidic hot spring to form mud. Because the muddy water is very viscous, you can clearly see the bubbles slowly forming and disappearing. The mud around the fountain looks like dried oil paint, which makes the fountain itself look like a pot of water washed with oil paint, just like a painter's canvas, overflowing with colorful seasonings.

Today we will continue to experience the beauty of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. The mysterious and tranquil forest, the romantic and charming Yellowstone Lake, and the misty river all make people marvel at the magic of nature. Then we will enter the Grand Teton National Park, where the unmelted glaciers cover the majestic Grand Teton Mountains, surrounded by blue sky and forests, like a fairyland. Then we will come to the authentic western cowboy town of Jackson, which is also a world-famous resort. Don't miss the Antler Park in the city center.
Itinerary:
West Yellowstone → Yellowstone National Park (3 hours, stop at West Thumb Geyser Basin, Upper Falls, Artist Point, etc., the attractions arrangement will be adjusted according to the actual situation on the day) → Grand Teton National Park (60 minutes) → Jackson → Elkhorn National Park (30 minutes)
Warm reminder: Yellowstone National Park is located in the Rocky Mountains, about 7,000 feet above sea level; the morning temperature in July and August in midsummer is sometimes only 4°C, so please keep warm

It exceeds the limits of human art and is the most wonderful and spectacular beauty on the surface of the earth.
Upper Yellowstone Falls
The Upper Falls is located 400 meters upstream of the larger Yellowstone Falls. The waterfall falls vertically along the volcanic cliff with a drop of 33 meters. The originally uneven volcanic rocks below the waterfall have been eroded by the waterfall for hundreds of years and have become very smooth.
West Thumb Geyser Basin
The West Thumb Geyser Basin is located on the edge of Yellowstone Lake. It was formed 150,000 years ago due to the collapse of the earth's crust. The combination of hot springs and lake water has created a wonderful misty landscape: the mist is the steam of the hot springs, and the green waves are the water of Yellowstone Lake. The blue sky and white clouds in the background complement each other, forming a different landscape from other hot spring areas in Yellowstone. This place is equivalent to the bay of Yellowstone Lake. Many geysers gather here. The colors of the fountains are varied, some are transparent green, and some are dark black like cement. Many fountains present a beautiful fantasy.
Artist Point
The scenery here is particularly spectacular. The canyon is more than 300 feet deep. The canyon walls are mainly yellow, mixed with black, red and pink, and clusters of green pine trees. These colors are mixed but not chaotic, looking like a peacock's tail, and also like the pointillism of a romantic painter who puts several layers of color in the same place.
Grand Teton National Park
Grand Teton National Park was established on February 26, 1929. There are 300 kilometers of trails in Grand Teton National Park. There are many lakes in the park, including Jackson Lake and Jenny Lake. Most of Grand Teton National Park is located in the Rocky Mountains, and the natural scenery is very beautiful. In addition, Grand Teton National Park also has extremely rich biological resources, including American bison, grizzly bears, black bears, moose, etc.
Elk Antler Arches Park
The park is not big, but there are giant arches made of deer antlers in the four directions. The antlers are all top-notch, but they are not obtained by hunting. Every winter, a large number of elk come from the mountains to the "National Elk Refuge" in Jackson to spend the winter. In the spring, the antlers fall off naturally and are replaced by new ones. After the elk leave, countless treasures are left all over the place.
After the tour, your guide will arrange for you to take the light rail, shuttle bus or Uber to Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC). It is recommended to book a flight departing after 21:30.
