CALIFORNIA

UTAH

Amazing – there ’ s a reason it is the RV mecca . IT IS THE HOME OF THE MIGHTY 5 NATIONAL PARKS : CAPITOL REEF , ARCHES , CANYONLANDS , ZION , AND BRYCE . The southwest is incredible overall , but remember to manage your elevation in the summer . If it is over 100 degrees where you are , how can you get above 5,000 feet for cooler temperatures ?

People visit the Mediterranean , the French countryside , and Italy , but they can also find all these things in California . The state is gigantic , so break it into sections when you visit , such as Lake Tahoe and the wine country area . THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA HAS DESERT-LIKE AREAS SUCH AS JOSHUA TREE AND AWES OME BEACH EXPERIENCES SUCH AS SAN DIEGO . GO TO CARMEL / MONTEREY AND TAKE THE 17- MILE DRIVE TO GO DOWN HIGH- WAY 1 . IT IS BREATHTAKING .

Pack a picnic and know that the prices are higher in California . Beware of the campground rules , such as a fee for every 15 minutes past check out . And keep in mind that driving a big rig in California is a two-person job to know what lane to be in . Californians are aggressive but capable drivers .
