Não há boas paradas entre G.Canyon e Vegas. 

Melhor opção seria pegar um trecho da histórica Rota 66, entre Seligman e Kingman, e observar a paisagem.

Old Route 66 - The longest intact stretch of old Route 66 runs from Kingman to Seligman. It is very popular with Route 66 buffs and is a much more scenic and interesting drive than I-40. 

SnowTop Cafe, Seligman - This is a classic old fashion soda shop that has become an icon on Route 66 (the owner is a famous Route 66 historian and promoter). The place has funny decorations and is known for its off-beat sense of humor.

You can stop at the historic Grand Canyon Caverns along the way. In Peach Springs, 40 kms after Seligman. 19 kms após o Post Office de 

Peach Springs
