Our favorite is Highway 89A traveling south from Highway 17 (Near I-40) towards Sedona, Arizona. A close second for us is Highway 1 along the California coast between San Luis Obispo and Monterey.
I don't know if you followed the news but 89A through Oak Creek Canyon and Sedona nearly suffered a significant alteration. Below is the latest from the Southwest fire website:
I don't believe any homes or businesses were lost but it came very close right up to the edge of 89A. The part that is most disturbing is it was set by a homeless person who left their campfire.
Now an update to the post I made earlier this week:
So hopefully they can get this one under control. I must give a big thank you to the men and women that do this wildfire fighting. That is a really tough job. So people, be careful with your fire this weekend if you live in the West, people cause most wildfires and it's DRY out here.
AZflycaster.. we posted the same thing at the exact same time... thats odd man. Are you heading to the mountains this weekend?
We are talking about a trip up on the rim. It's not a problem for me, but the wife has one of those no work, no pay jobs. No vacation, no holidays. I need to find out how much of the forest is shut down also.....

Highway 64 from Brevard to Murphy in the western NC mountains is one of the great drives... but the entire Blue Ridge Highway is a drive I aspire to accomplish....soon.
So many highways ... so little money...

Headed west from larmie Wyoming through the snowy range is a fantastic 2 lane that drops you back at the interstate just east of Rawlins. Fantastic mountian views, alpine ponds, great camping, and a supper cool observation tower at one overlook.
