    So this will be my first ever road trip/expedition. I have a mostly stock 3rd gen, so beginner trails are preferred. I'm based out of the Inland Empire in California and ideally, I'd like to hit the Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce and any other notable spots around North AZ and South UT.

    Free camping is ideal, and seeing as I don't really leave CA, I have no idea what resources I should look into for the neighboring states.

    My trip will be between 3-4 days, starting from the Inland Empire, traveling north east through AZ, up into Utah, and back through Nevada/Vegas.

    If anyone has any cool spots for camping or must see spots, please drop some ideas. I really have no idea where to start!
