Road Trip Photos: The Ballad of Route 89 From Canada to Mexico—past seven national parks and 1,700 miles (2,735 kilometers) of the promised land—on the West's most Western highway. Photograph by Jeff Pflueger
We transected the country along Route 89, driving some 1,700 miles [2,736 kilometers], from the Canadian border to Mexico, in 15 frenzied days. The route slices through the American West and crosses seven national parks and many lesser-known (but equally amazing) treasures. —Photographer Jeff Pflueger
