11/02/22: Planning the trip
We looked over our map of previous trips, and set a preliminary plan for this one. The basic idea is to head west, go up the Million Dollar Highway along the San Juans, and then head over to Capitol Reef.
Central area of the map of our previous drives before this trip. All our travels from 1999 through 2017 are Sharpied on this map. Trips from before 1999 are buried under later paths, mostly following Rt. 66 to SoCal.
