Okay, since it is the shortest day of the year, I decided to get out the Trails Illustrated maps and create a list of trails I want to do in the coming year or two. Maybe you who live closer and have been on a number of these could help me prioritize? Here are some trails that I haven't hiked and look interesting based exclusively on what I see on the maps...

MOAB SOUTH:
-Trough Springs Trail(from Hatch Point)
-Jackson's Trail
-Hidden Valley Trail
-Hunter's Canyon Trail

CANYONLANDS - ISLAND IN THE SKY:
-Alcove Springs to Zeus and Moses
-Lathrop Trail
-Wilhite Trail
-Gooseberry Trail
-Syncline Loop, maybe to the Hardscrabble Bottom

MOAB NORTH:
-Porcupine Rim Trail
-Negro Bill Canyon to Morning Glory Bridge
-Fisher Towers Trail
-Tower Arch Trail (Arches)

SAN RAFAEL SWELL:
-Cow, Calf and Pine Canyons
-Wild Horse Canyon to the Window
-Ding Dang
-Crack/Chute Loop
-Anything else in the Swell, since I have only been there once.

Ideas, thoughts, warnings or invitations are all welcome.
