Grand Canyon • 

N. had a solo tour that began in Salt Lake City a couple days after Thanksgiving that gave us the glorious excuse of driving the 15-passenger van from DFW to SLC. We spent Thanksgiving hiking and eating turkey sandwiches in the van during a snowstorm. It was cold and wonderful.

Antelope Canyon

A great place to scratch your cornea.

Zion National Park • 

If I had to choose one of the four, this would be my top pick. We arrived just before it started snowing. We hiked through Zion on Thanksgiving day and bumped into a couple families from Germany. Besides the families, there weren't many people. It was serene and easy to navigate. We took our time and watched the snowstorm roll in.
