Do NOT use a GPS for Zion, Bryce or especially the Grand Canyon. There are too many side roads that are not suitable for most cars, and every year we hear horror stories about people who get lost and out of cell phone contact range and endanger their lives by relying on GPS in this region.
Trust the folks who have told you that you won't need it. Follow the signs and use a simple map.
Red,
Did not use GPS for Zion or Bryce (didn't rent one either).
Thanks so much for your recommendation of the Desert Pearl Inn in Springdale.We splurged ang d rented the river view room which was outstanding!
We stayed at the new Ruby's Best Western which is across the highway from
the original Ruby's (so now there are two). The new Ruby's gives a wonderful complimentary breakfast. The original Ruby's does not.
Had no trouble with directions to Zion from Las Vegas nor from Zion to Bryce.
Took Hwy 14 from Hwy 89 to Cedar City to pick up I15 on the way back from Bryce. Hwy 14 is very scenic - glad we took that route.
Zion and Bryce were outstanding - highly recommend a visit to anyone who has not been.
Thanks again for your advice Red. My wife and I really appreciate it.
Richard
