Full steam ahead on Rocky Mountainee­r

-

ROCKY Mountainee­r, The Utah Office of Tourism and Delta Air Lines recently hosted nine Australian & New Zealand top achievers on the famil of a lifetime. The group explored the stunning state of Utah, before joining the brand new Rocky Mountainee­r journey - Rockies to the Red Rocks travelling between Moab, Utah and Denver, Colorado - stopping overnight in the picturesqu­e town of Glenwood Springs.

The travel partners were flown into Salt Lake City by Delta Air Lines, before road tripping across the magical desert state of Utah. The group then hiked Utah’s Red Rocks, learned about Navajo Indian traditions, rode Hummers up Moab’s slickrocks and travelled the highway into Monument Valley made famous by the film Forrest Gump.

The group was then the first Australian and New Zealand travel partners to join the brand new Rocky Mountainee­r route - Rockies to the Red Rocks. The top achievers were treated to two days and one night on board the iconic Rocky Mountainee­r in its new home of the American Southwest. The scenery is just as stunning as its Canadian sister and the overnight stop in Glenwood Springs was a delight in the middle of Colorado.
