It sounds great! Arches NP, Monument valley as well as Antelope Canyon are very unique and worth of going. I agree with XX, if you want to see some unique places, here you are!

 

If you arrive on14th and leave on 22nd of June, here is your plan.

 

on15th, you need a whole day in Arches NP/Canyon land NP UT, spend the night at Moab. 

 

第一天在犹他州的拱门国家公园

 

 

 

 

 

on the 16th,  you are going to Monument Valley.  I visited the Valley a long time ago and almost forget how to get there. I checked the mileages from Arches to there, it is about 160 miles, however,  you just drive through and no need to stay. Remember there are only two lanes on these roads, you can not drive fast, say about 40-50 miles/hour. It is an easy driving, probably you are the only one car on the road at most time, sure you are in the vast desert indeed, enjoy or bore it. 

 

第二天经过纪念碑谷

 

 

from Monument valley,  you can continue to Page/Antelope canyon AZ, add another 100 miles, you might stay in between, it is your second day and night, June 16th.

 

I  am not sure how long you stay in Antelope canyon, since I never have been there, but it  is your third day anyway.

 

第三天在亚利桑那州的羚羊谷

 

 

 

After you visited the Canyon, you can go to Durango CO at afternoon or in the morning of your forth day, either June 17 or 18th. It will be the longest drive from Antelope canyon to Durango CO in your trip, about 250-260 miles, I believe it will take you a whole day, so you will spend night in Durango, it is June 19th. 

 

第四-五天在科州Durango

 

On 20th of June, in Durango, you will  spend a half  or whole day in  Mesa Verde NP CO . I feel it is enough for  a half day at the park, stay in Durango at night, there are a lot of restaurants and shops to spend your money.

第五天访问 Mesa Verde 国家公园

On 21st of June, you will drive  cross San Juan National Forest. If you are lucky, you will see wild flowers all over the mountains.  The roads on the mountains are up and down, pay attention to the speed control especially on the turns/down hills, there are usually no traffic at all. I  do not think it is dangerous at all but  a really scenery drive!

 

第六天翻越圣胡安山脉
