Arizona
Best time to visit for moderate temperatures is November - February, so if you are looking for a warm winter adventure, Arizona is the place to be! 

If you want to do the same tour we did, here's the link to the VanLife Tour Arizona route.  The stops (along with informative links) are listed in order, below. Remember to bring a paper map in case of some electronic issue.
 
We arrived in Arizona via Nevada (originating from California), so we stopped off at Lake Mead National Recreation Area / Hoover Dam, which is close to the AZ border.   Then, we started our beautiful VanLife Tour of Arizona...
