Road Trip from Colorado to Grand Canyon then to Vegas suggestions for sights/things to do along the way?


Travel Info
I am planning a family trip 36,35,& 8 yrs. from Philly to Colorado (fly) then a road trip from Colorado to the Grand Canyon then on to Vegas. I'm looking for suggestions for places to stay, things to see and do in each area and along the road. Any suggestions would be appreciated! We are looking to head out at the end of June 2007.

Travel Tips
Brice Canyon. God, that's beautiful in Utah. Mesa Verde is also very nice, and the sand dunes are fun too.

Others
Stay away from small gas stations in the middle of nowhere.
I figure you're taking I-70, well I didn't see much out there specially utah till i hit I-15, if you don't mind going off the highway and exploring i bet there are some really nice things to see, well good luck.
( i don't know if any of this is on the route or not... )

You have to see Zion National Park and find the part of the park called 'The Narrows'. It is an amazing site and doesn't take more than 2 hours, but is well worth it. That's the most memorable part of my Colorado to Vegas trip.
Canyonlands National Park.
While in the colorado springs area u must see "The Garden of the Gods", "Cave of the Winds", take the cog up to the top of Pikes Peak,visit Manitou Springs at the foot of Pikes Peak and if you like the good ol' west type of thing go to the "Flying W Ranch", try Cripple Creek an old gold mining town that has gone back to the gambling days again,and could go on and on beautiful place .
