No, Monument Valley on the Arizona / Utah border ... I was actually headed to Flagstaff and then Sedona.
Thanks. I think it's as close to perfect as a touring bike can be. I have a 1996 Honda Goldwing Interstate ...
with over 200k miles on it.
Remember checking out that area on the way to Four Corners some years ago
Beautiful views, very long distances between gas stations. Many small towns with abject poverty and mostly Native American residents. Not formal reservations but 100% Indian none the less. Very eye opening concerning the folks who live in those post card areas.

Where I was ...
Monument Valley is located within the Navajo Nation, the largest Native American reservation in the U.S. It is officially designated as the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, spanning the Utah-Arizona border
Nice wing!
Saw quite a few of them while in Paris recently, besides the usual GS & RTs. Years ago I was planning on renting a Goldwing in San Francisco for a US west coast tour in October/November but the shop owner advised against it due to risk of snow on some of the peaks. The wing is the perfect bike for those roads. Safe riding!
Yeah, anything past late September can be iffy in the Sierras. I went over Beartooth Pass (from Cooke City ...
to Red Lodge), the first week of November, and I'll never do that again on a motorcycle. Black Ice at the top.
That’s an excellent seasonal vehicle for crossing the desert
It must have been great fun.
Last time I drove through it was in this, the very least-capable desert cruiser most of the year.
