Canyonlands Area - Spring versus Fall
Hi There,
I am long term planning to travel from the UK and do an extensive 2 week photography focused visit of the Canyonlands Area ( Island In The Sky, White Rim Trail, Needles and The Maze )... Trip would of necessity be largely camping and backpacking centric ( would rent a Jeep for the White Rim and hire an outfitter for The Maze, others would be logistically easier )...
Would be interested in your views as to best time to visit the Region between Spring and Fall... The options I am considering would be mid may to mid June versus late September to mid October...
I realise one cant control the weather but would prefer to come in a less windy / rainy time of year ( although I love cloudy skies! ) and would be very keen to avoid tangling with no-see-ums if possible... Is the Fall time frame more / less busy...
That would seem to preclude Spring for me, but very interested in your experiences and thoughts on when is the best time to visit!!
Thanks in Advance
