2 . The Grand circle—All Year Long
In the Grand Circle, there is no reason to pick one season or one vacation over another—you can do it all. Combine skiing outside Denver or Salt Lake city with hiking in Moab or golfing in Sedona. If the South Rim is chilly in winter, hike into the Grand for a springtime paradise. If canyons (峡谷) seem too warm in summer, drive up into the mountains for cool green escapes.
Driving Tips
Gas up. You can travel a hundred miles between fuel stops. Make sure all of your vehicles with liquid are full, too.
Watch for animals. Free-range livestock grazing (放牧) is commonplace out here—and if the cows and sheep don’t wander into the road, the deer might.
Road signs. If a road sign shows a warning like “Steep Curves Ahead,” or “Chains or Snow Tires Required,” or advises you not to continue without four wheel drive, believe it.Cary water and—in winter—extra clothes and a small shovel.
Cultural etiquette
Indian reservations are independent nations. Traffic violations and accidents may bring you up before tribal, not state.Alcohol is not permitted on most reservations; carrying it―whether in open or closed containers—is illegal. Consider, at all times, that you are a guest of a different culture, a different nation. Do not photograph people unless permission is requested and gran led. Never interrupt ceremonies or rituals. Do not assume all people speak English. If you are buying crafts from a roadside stand, ask if the price is negotiable; sometimes it is, often it isn’t.
Be weather wise
When rain or thunder storms are possible, be cautious. When camping or hiking in narrow canyons and washes.
Save with park passes
There are over thirty national parks and monuments, national recreation areas, and national historic parks within the Grand Circle, as well as national forests, state parks and tribal parks. Most sites charge an entrance fee, but National Park Service and state multiparty passes are available.

3 . Are you thinking about traveling alone? You must have a million questions: Where should you go? Will there be someone to talk to?
In fact, traveling alone is not as scary (吓人的) as it seems. Here are some good tips.
Choose a place where you feel comfortable and safe
Truth be told, traveling alone for the first time is more about the experience than the destination.
Make a plan
Always make a plan. That way you’ll avoid worrying too much over where you’re staying, what to see and how you’re getting from A to B.
Book hotels ahead of time
Talk to people
If you’re going to a touristy place like Thailand, there are lots of other people who are traveling alone.
Let someone know where you are
Your family and friends love you and probably worry about you every day, so text them and let them know what you are up to throughout your trip.
