Canynlands Backpacking
Join us for a long weekend of backpacking in the Neddles District within Canyonlands National Park. As you hike through narrow canyons and around towering sandstone spires your view constantly shifts between tight, colorful rock formations and wide, sweeping vistas. Open ridges and mesas reveal panoramic views of distant canyons carved by the Colorado and Green Rivers, with layers of red, orange, and gold stretching to the horizon. At night we will enjoy a meal under the stars and recount our stories from the day.
