Plan your visit
- Getting there
- Best as a fly-drive road trip split into sections; start in Tucson or Phoenix for Tombstone, then connect California ghost-town country with the northern plains.
- Parking
- Use official town, state park and national monument parking; expect seasonal road rules at Bodie and visitor-centre construction updates at Little Bighorn.
- Best time
- Spring or autumn; summer can be brutal in Arizona and busy in the parks, while winter can shut high or remote sections.
- Terrain
- Very long driving sections with dusty town streets, exposed ghost-town roads, museum stops and battlefield walks.

What remains
What remains is the West after the poster has peeled back: money, guns, performance, abandoned rooms and a battlefield that refuses the easy legend.
