Are you planning on buying a car or renting one while you're down in the U.S. ?
You may want to look into the details of renting a car. Some offer unlimited mileage, others don't and give you a daily limit, and any additional miles over you get charged.
I would also suggest looking at www.mapquest.com for mile calculations between destinations. That seems like a lot of driving and not exactly the most relaxing of time. Its something to think about.

To Lauralee.

1) I have already booked a car in LA airport. The booking conditions include unlimited mileage.
2) As I have estimated, I will never drive more than 500 miles per day, and the average mileage is about 300 miles per day. By buisiness I often drive for similar distances in Russia and I have to tell you that Russian roads a bit differ of American ones.

Many thanks for your reply. Reply to this

I noticed from your itinerary that you did not list Grand Teton National Park. It is about 40 miles directly south of Yellowstone National Park.
It is a Must See!!!! The mountains are unbelievable! Please look online and include this in your trip. Good luck! Reply to this

You seem only to be driving through Yosemite Park. It is worth stopping for a few days if you can. Absolutely spectacular. Tallest waterfalls in North America, oldest and largest trees, great hiking trails with amazing views... Reply to this
