I've done this hike and it's nice but not a 3 nighter. Probably not much water in Taylor Cyn. but there's always the Green R. Better hikes at the Island are Gooseberry Cyn-Dogleg Cyn loop or doing...

Great photos. Are you aware of this talk in Moab, March 15? Sounds like something you'd be interested in.

A lot of the north facing trails still have snow and ice but the Portal Trail is clear, Negro Bill, Culvert Canyon or go out to Sand Flats and hike some of the Slickrock bike trail, all dog friendly.

Ravialdo, 15 miles a day really is about the avg. My wife and I did Meander Cyn. last Aug. after the Mineral closure and did about 8-10 miles a day for 6 days and never even reached the Confluence....

Work is under way, still no definite date for a grand reopening.

You got it, the viewing blind in the wetlands preserve.
Your turn.

This could be tough - unless, of course, you've been here.

Get the Belknaps 's "Canyonlands River Guide" for mile by mile info and if you get into Moab a day early go to the Moab Library, they've got the Kelsey river guide, and spend an hour or so making...

I've canoed both of these trips a couple of times, though not in March, and they both have hikes and sites to see.
1) On the Green, I assume your put-in is Ruby Ranch, mile 97. In just a couple of...

The Pinnacle in The Needles?

Well done, that's the Park Ave. trail at the bottom of the canyon. Photo was shot from the top of the western rim.
You're up oldno7.

Be more specific.

Nope.

OK, where's this?

Muley Point?

[QUOTE=Swamp Thing;415139]Slickrocker, why do I need the rubber tips? I've got them around here somewhere! And I never leave without ziplocks, but have never used them for collecting water, thanks.

A couple of gear items - if you use trekking poles be sure you have rubber tips.
Also, 50' of paracord can come in handy. I was there backpacking once and 2 dayhikers were unable to negotiate a...

Oct. is a great month to BP the Needles, I've done it the last 3 years, not many people, usually water is available and the temps are perfect.
You're cutting it kind of close the 1st day though. The...

ibenick, just my 2 cents, one boat won't do it all. You'll need to decide what the main use will be or what the biggest trip you'll want to use it for will be. You say in your OP you'd like to canoe...

I thought about it a few years ago but that's as far as it got.
Check out this site - the forum and the build info. They're English but there's a lot of great experience there.

The snow from the last 2 days is melting rapidly. I was up at Poison Spider today and the trails are pretty muddy, watched a couple of trucks turn back, couldn't get up the muddy grade. North facing...

I left Moab at 2pm crossing the old river bridge and 2 hrs later came back across the new one. The old bridge will be torn down in the coming weeks to make way for the new north bound bridge, 2 lanes...

These storms have been the best thing that's happened to Moab all winter. The temps went back to normal, breaking us free from the single digit lows and sub freezing days. The 8-10 inches of snow...
