    Looking to go backpacking

    Alright all, Looking to go backpacking near Echo res. Any input or help would be appreciated. It will be my first trip. The reason I chose echo is for cliff diving also.

    Backpacking by echo-that's not usually a destination area, per-se. How many days you looking at?

    Did you see my cliff diving pics and vids at echo in the general videos forum? Do a search and it gives you the beta for the best spot for it (unless you already know where it is...).

    I was thinking the exact same thing.

    Yeah. Seems like it might be a better plan to backpack in the Uintas or something and hit Echo for a dip on the way home.

    I have hiked (backpacked) all OVER the Unitas, if you need help with some spots let me know what mileage you are looking for (nights too) and I can suggest some great spots.
    I need a Canyoneering partner! I have a open schedule, all my own gear and am looking to go as much as possible..PM me!
