Oil field drivers refer to the “_______ crew” drivers. Some roads In west Texas are in poor condition to all the truck traffic plus the drivers drive like idiots.


If you have time, stop in Page (Arizona) and see Horseshoe Bend and tour one of the “slot canyons”
I recommend Lower Antelope tours by Dixie Ellis.
That might be doable on our way out before riding from the north rim around to the south rim. We should arrive in the area of Page or Bitter Springs after a 500ish mile second day of riding. How long does a tour like that take?

Horseshoe Bend is a few miles south of Page. Takes about 15-20 minutes (One way) to get to the overlook from the parking lot. Beware-there are no guardrails, long way to the bottom.

There is a North Antelope and South Antelope slot canyon. Tours run by different companies. As I remember it was about a two to two and a half hour experience, counting waiting time. Definitely worth it. Both would be available to see pictures on the internet. I’d post links but I’m using my phone.
