Pretty much that. I want to hit Zion's for a few days, I don't care about snow or whatever. I also have a few kayaks I can incorporate into any trip. I have a nationals parks pass, a four wheel drive truck and probably one or two other guys I could bring along. I know southern Nevada really well, I just want new ideas and enthusiasm.

New ideas? well skip all you said and try to do a true Route (not trail) in the Grand Canyon. The "enthusiasm" element is you had better be enthusiastic about carrying water on many routes!

Buckskin Gulch is on of my favorites.

In at Wire Pass and out at White House is two days.

In at Wire Pass and out at Lee's Ferry is 4 to 5 days.

Here is the beta:

I love Canyonlands Needles District. There are lots of routes of varying lengths. And if you wanted to drive in has to be a high 4WD head in from Elephant Canyon down to Devil's Kitchen hike Chesler Park. That would keep you from hauling too much water.

LONG SHOT: You can go in through Beef Basin Road down into Upper Salt Creek, Peek a Boo back through Horse Canyon and out the closed end of it. Someone here found a route out of Horse Canyon without hiking back out the open end. Pics looked awesome!

Can i invite myself along? Seriously, I'm looking for a hiking/backpacking trip to Southern UT between now and summer. I'm completely flexible on dates and can be anywhere you need me to be.

Hit me up on facebook (if you use it) since I'm not on here much, or email me.

I'd like to go some time before the end of April.
Thanks!
