Taking a summer journey through the Rocky Mountains could be one of the most rewarding experiences in your life. These mountains are a statement in diversity and resplendent natural beauty. Combine the physical grandeur with a bit of Old West history, a few abandoned ghost towns, some of the world's most impressive national parks, and, of course, the ultimate black-tarred twisties, and you have the makings of a trip you won't forget. Save up your vacation time!

All directions in the Rockies lead to soaring peaks, July snowdrifts, mile-high valleys with arrowheads and clumbine ultimately giving way to to barren, half-frozen tundra 12,000 feet above sea level. You'll go from T-shirt weather at 3,000 feet to heated grips and back again to summer weather in a single day.

Explore the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, the Glen Canyon Dam, the Sedona Vortex, three 10,000-foot passes in the San Juan mountain range, Monument Valley, Zion National Park, Mt. Carmel Scenic Byway, Bryce Canyon, Valley of the Gods, countless crossings of the Continental Divide, Mt. Evans, and the great Yellowstone National Park. Enjoy popular motorcycle roads such as the "Oh My God Road," the Beartooth Highway, the Lewis and Clark Trail, and the Going-to-the-Sun Road, to name just a few.

Ballentine doesn't just lead you to the places where all the tourists go. He takes you where motorcyclists go and love: roads free of traffic, tourists, and all the spectacular scenery and smell the freshness of the snowcapped peaks and desert valleys, all with an eye to saving your wallet.
