I was there in December and the weather and scenery were spectacular. It was much better than when I was there in June of 95. It was 117*F! Too hot for me.

I'd like to go back and explore more of it and I now know winter months are best.

I was there last winter, late January and it was a little cool but beautiful. I'd love to go back with the new bike but I might take my XRL instead and see some of the stuff thats really off the beaten path. Have to buy the wife a weeks vacation somewhere else first......
