Our coverage area in this expansive region includes Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming, as well as the western parts of North and South Dakota, Nebraska and Texas.
In each print issue and on this website, you’ll find in-depth feature articles and our sections: Best of the West, Take a Trip, News Around the West and Music, Musings & More. We also publish an annual special section called “Where in the West Should I Go?” showcasing 52 places to visit in the upcoming year.

From bustling cities to vast wilderness areas, we’ll take you through the West you know and love and the West you need to know more about.
The goal of American West is simple. Whether you’re a longtime van lifer or it’s your first time beyond your backyard, we want to inspire new experiences throughout this phenomenal region. Happy travels!
