Itinerary
Day 1 (June 27, Tues) We start our exciting trip to some of America's most incredible sights with a flight to Salt
Lake City, the capital of Utah, founded in 1847 by Brigham Young. As an introduction to this impressive city,
you will get a Tour of the City Highlights before settling in for the evening. Accommodations in Salt Lake City, UT
Day 2 (June 28, Wed) After breakfast at the hotel we travel by motorcoach to Cheyenne, Wyoming,
considered to be the Rodeo Capitol of America. Keep your eyes peeled for any and all animals in this area of
abundant wildlife. It's a bit of a drive today with stops for lunch and breaks, but the camaraderie of the group
brings an element of fun and enjoyment to the ride. (B, D)
Accommodations in Cheyenne, WY
Day 3 (June 29, Thurs) Our spectacular journey continues as we drive to see Crazy Horse Memorial, the
world's largest mountain carving located in the Black Hills of South Dakota. A memorial for all Native American
tribes, it is breathtaking and inspiring. This evening you will enjoy a Chuckwagon Super and Cowboy Music
Show. (B, D)

Day 4 (June 30, Fri) Start your day off with a healthy breakfast before our visit to the very patriotic and
inspirational sculptured Mount Rushmore National Memorial. Learn the fascinating history behind the building
of this astonishing monument, honoring four very special Presidents of our country. Hear about the area's
human history and relish the beautiful landscape of the Black Hills. (B)
Day 5 (July 1, Sat) Walk in the footsteps of historic Old West legends like Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane and
Seth Bullock in Deadwood. This 1870's gold rush town, named for the dead trees in its gulch, became a
National Historic Landmark in 1961. (B)
Accommodations in Deadwood, SD
Day 6 (July 2, Sun) Be amazed at how large "America the Beautiful" is as we travel to Cody, gateway to
Yellowstone. Known as the small western town with the big city attitude, we will settle in here for the night. (B)

Day 7 (July 3, Mon) A truly memorable day begins with breakfast, welcoming our local step-on guide as we
head into the world famous Yellowstone National Park. With herds of bison, elk and other wildlife, with
stunning geo-thermal wonders found nowhere else, and of course the notable Old Faithful Geyser, your day
will be packed with jaw dropping moments. (B)

of Mammoth Hot Springs, and surely more wildlife to capture your attention. (B)
Day 9 (July 5, Wed) Today we start our day with breakfast at the hotel and then board our deluxe motorcoach
to travel to the Grand Teton National Park. Few sights are as breathtaking as the 40-mile-long Teton Range
and the lush valley located at the foot of the range, famously known as Jackson Hole. From the abundance of
wildlife to the winding Snake River to the striking views wherever you turn, these mountains rise gloriously into
the sky and demand your attention. Enjoy this incredible beauty with a leisurely Float Trip soaking in the
sights. In the Town Square watch for the famous arches made of antlers. (B) Accommodations in Jackson, WY
