The Wave is going to be a tough one for him, but he can do it with help. My guess is he is going to be tuckered out after that one.
Everything on this page is good with a toddler except maybe the Wave.

However unless you have a permit for South Coyote Buttes - Don't venture in the Cottonwood Teepee And Paw Hole area. The rangers out there do check just about everyone, every day.
If you want to go to the Wahweap Hoodoos, you could go in the back door and then its just a very short walk to the hoodoos. I don't tell many about it since the hike through the river is awesome and without much elevation gain. If this was the only hike you were doing for the day he could maybe do it. No permit is needed

I have the description on the same page as the Wahweap Hoodoos. Look at the bottom of the page.

It just dawned on me that I never made an album of the Rimrock Hoodoos! I need to do that! I have the photos.
Some interesting hoodoos near Road #431

For me it doesn't matter if they don't like people around there any more. Then I will enjoy the long hike throughout the wonderful area of Wahweap Creek.

Newbie: I have question?
I found this thread by accident and it was the best accident I have had. I would like to know how far the hike from Lone Tree Junction is to Paw Hole, I know that you have to have a permit to go there and I don't have a 4x4 to help with getting there I see by a map that it's not to far, or so it seems. Any help with this question would be greatly appreciated.
This is the map that shows how far it seems to be.

Ok I see that I'm not allowed to post links yet

Your camera would LOVE the Waheap Hoodoos. If you have a 4WD you can do the short cut. I am not sure the actual hike there is doable in February and with a kid. It's miserable in the summer when its too hot, but winter there might be water and be too cold. I have not done it winter yet. Spring and Fall are best. You could do Cobra Arch and if you can get to it, Willis Creek on Skutumpah Road but I would go in from Cannyonville rather than Glendale this time of year. those are my favorites all all close to Coyote Buttes. I also love buckskin and you can just get a $5 permit at the trailhead and go as far as you want. There are some nice petroglyphs near the start. If you want to visit South you can usually get a permit that day.

North Coyote Buttes itself has a lot to explore. Melody Arch and Top Rock Arch would be scary with a young child, but you can find the grotto and dinosaur tracks. There are many rocks named out there like hamburger rock, and double arch to look for as well.

I should look at the dates on something and if I already answered before posting. lol

Thank you Richie and Tanya, good info I did a check on my GPS unit's map and it by the 4x4's road is about 3 miles, I was wondering about across country trekking. Don't know what the terrain looks like and don't want to guess...
Thanks again....
Lynn
