Day 7: The Mother Road


66 - the long concrete path across the country, waving gently, up and down on the map, from the Mississippi to Bakersfield - over the red lands and the gray lands, twisting up into the mountains, crossing the Divide and down into the bright and terrible desert, and across the desert to the mountains again, and into the rich California valleys." ~ John Steinbeck

The famous Route 66 winds its way through Flagstaff, and is a main thoroughfare through the town. Here Route 66 intersects Humphreys, the main road up to Highway 180, which leads to the Snowbowl, the Grand Canyon and The Museum of Northern Arizona.

East to Albuquerque, or West to Los Angeles?
