Few can resist the lure of the open road once summer rolls around
With summer around the corner, the open road beckons. In that spirit, we present our favorite American drives from the West to the East. Some are well-known destinations and others are off the beaten path. Several are steeped in history, while a few pursue remote, wild beauty. Best of all, most of these routes make for splendid drives all year long, so you can get out and explore their bounty whenever the mood strikes. So rev your engines . . . and hit the road.
