Sample Idea--Itinerary

OK--so based on what Barry wrote--about going North a bit, too...I got to thinking. Here is a possible scenario for the trip:

Colorado Springs to Durango: 314.2 miles (5 hrs 50 min)
Durango to Grand Canyon National Park: 315 miles (6 hrs 37 min)
Grand Canyon to Boulder City [vic. Hoover Dam]: 333.1 miles (5 hrs 59 min)
Boulder City to Las Vegas: 26 miles (27 min)
Las Vegas to Santa Barbara, CA: 359.4 miles (5 hrs 05 min)
Santa Barbara to Cambria, CA [vic. HWY 1 coast]: 125.7 miles (2 hrs 14 min)
Cambria to Monterey, CA: 103.3 miles (1 hr 49 min)
Monterey to San Francisco: 118.4 miles (1 hr 48 min)
SF to Yosemite National Park: 202.7 miles (3 hrs 47 min)
Yosemite to South Lake Tahoe: 151.4 miles (3 hrs 07 min)
Lake Tahoe to Reno: 63.6 miles (1 hr 19 min)
Reno to Moose, WY [vic. Grand Tetons NP]: 715.3 miles (11 hrs 28 min)
Moose to Yellowstone National Park: 95.4 miles (1 hr 59 min)
Yellowstone to Colorado Springs: 648.3 miles (11 hrs 10 min)

TOTAL: 3571.8 miles (62 hrs 39 min)

Or, if you break this down over 14 days of travel time, only an average of 4.5 hours of driving a day. So I think that this would be doable--some days, no travel, others maybe 8 hours of driving...it is lots of driving. Or of course if we didn't get to all these spots, we could break off little portions (Grand Canyon or Yellostone are easy to reduced a couple hundred miles).

This doesn't show where we would spend the nights, etc. Obviously some places like Monterey, Lake Tahoe or Las Vegas based on where they are in the trip.

So what you all think?
