I can appreciate your images because I treated myself and an old friend to 8 days out west in November for my birthday. We flew into Lost Wages, spent one whole day at Hoover Dam, spent the next day in and around Sedona, visited the Grand Canyon next where I got the best image from the entire trip, sunset at Desert View. Drove up to Page after dark. Next day we saw Horseshoe Bend, Lake Powell, Marble Canyon, Lee's Ferry and walked across the Colorado River on the Navajo Bridge. It was an amazing drive from Page to Marble Canyon for us because now it was light out and we got to see the vistas that had been hidden by nightfall. Drove from Page across southern Utah to Zion Nat Pk. On my birthday we drove from Cedar City to Bryce Canyon Nat Pk. Wind chills that morning were in the single digits. Finished our trip with a day at Valley of Fire in Nevada before flying back out of Lost Wages. I had 3 Nikon DSLRs and a Samsung S22+ with me. It was interesting how the red rocks seemed to be getting redder with each passing day that trip with Valley of Fire probably the reddest landscape of them all. I would like to get back there and see more of southern Utah and more of the parks north and west of Vegas. I was glad we made the trip when we did especially visiting Valley of Fire; there is almost no shade at that park and it would have been near impossible for the two of us to have done all we did during the summer months.

I have been to most of your trip spots this winter. Las Vegas is clearly best done in the winter.
