If you have time and don't mind the slower route, Glen Canyon on 70/50 in
Colorado is a "must see" drive.  It is
gorgeous.  Lake Tahoe, also along Hwy 50 is beautiful too.   Not sure how
far out of your way you want to go but
Bryce Canon and the like are a bit of a swing south on your way but well
worth it.

Enjoy,
