On the way back, I am planning on detouring to Oatman, AZ to see the wild burros and maybe have dinner. Any tips on route, ...

Howdie all, I'm planning my first-ever trip out west for April; I'll be heading to Vegas for a week, and plan to spend some time in town and some time in the surrounding desert, principally for photography. I'm planning on a day each at Red Rock Canyon and the Valley of Fire , and a day trip to the ...
